Air Flow Diagram
See Figure 1-4.
The air is drawn in through the Telescopic Tube (1) through the Intake Filter (2) and is compressed to
final pressure in the Cylinders (3, 4 and 5). It is recooled by the Intercoolers (6 and 7) and the After-
cooler (9). The pressure of the individual stages is controlled by Safety Valves (10 and 11). The com-
pressed air is cleaned in the Intermediate Separator (8) and purified in the P0 Filter System (13). The
Intermediate Separator and P0 Filter System are drained by the Condensate Drain Valves (15). The
Pressure Maintaining Valve (16) provides a constant pressure within the P0 Filter System. The purified
compressed air then passes through the Fill Hose (17) and Fill Valve (18) to the bottles to be filled. Fill
pressure is indicated by the Final Pressure Gauge (19).The Final Safety Valve (12) is adjusted to blow
off at the pressure selected.
