Proper use
This dryer was designed, manufactured and tested to separate the moisture which normally exists in compressed air.
Any other use is considered improper.
The manufacturer shall not be liable for problems occurring as a consequence of improper use. The user alone is re-
sponsible for any damage resulting from that.
Furthermore, the correct use includes the compliance with the installation instructions, in particular in respect of:
The voltage and frequency of the main voltage supply.
The pressure, temperature and flow rate of the inlet air.
The pressure, temperature and cooling-water throughput (water-cooled).
The ambient temperature.
When delivered, the dryer is tested and fully assembled. The customer only needs to connect the device to the system
in accordance with the instructions in the following chapters.

Special advice for plants under pressure in accordance with the 97/23/EC Pressure
Equipment Directive
The DRYPOINT® RA 3-160 compressed-air refrigeration dryer contains pressure equipment in the sense of the
97/23/EC Pressure Equipment Directive. Therefore, the entire plant needs to be registered with the supervisory author-
ity in accordance with the local regulations, and requires the approval of the latter.
The category of the respective pressure device is indicated in the declaration of conformity.
For the examination prior to the start-up and for periodic inspections, the national regulations need to be observed,
such as the industrial safety regulation in the Federal Republic of Germany. In countries outside the EU, the respective
regulations in force there need to be adhered to.
The proper use of pressure devices is the basic requirement for safe operation. As regards pressure devices, the fol-
lowing points need to be observed:
The DRYPOINT® RA 3-160 compressed-air refrigeration dryer must only be employed within the pressure and
temperature range limits indicated by the manufacturer on the type plate.
No welding must be carried out on the housing and bottom of the devices.
The DRYPOINT® RA 3-160 compressed-air refrigeration dryer must neither be installed in insufficiently venti-
lated rooms nor near heat sources or inflammable substances.
To avoid fractures resulting from material fatigue, the refrigeration dryer should not be exposed to vibrations
during operation.
The maximum operating pressure indicated by the manufacturer on the type plate must not be exceeded. It is
the operator's responsibility to install the appropriate safety and control devices. Prior to the start-up of the
DRYPOINT® RA 3-160 compressed-air refrigeration dryer, the connected pressure generator (compressor
etc.) must be fused to the max. permissible operating pressure. The integrated safeguard needs to be checked
by an approved inspection agency.
The documents related to the DRYPOINT® RA 3-160 compressed-air refrigeration dryer (manual, operating
instructions, manufacturer's declaration etc.) must be kept safe for future reference.
No objects whatsoever must be installed at or placed on the DRYPOINT® RA 3-160 compressed-air refrigera-
tion dryer and the connecting lines.
Installation of the plant in frost-free places only.
Operation of the plant is only permissible with fully closed and intact housing and cover panels. Operation of
the plant with damaged housing/cover panels is prohibited.
