PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
NP-DK50 PLUS, 2V-A-3_02-2020-MD 12 02/2020
is automatically drained at regular intervals into the collecting bottle via the condensate drain
solenoid valve (16). The dryer ensures continuous drying of the compressed air. The drain valve (7)
drains condensate from the air tank when drying performance is checked. Compressed, oil-free
filtered air is stored in the air tank ready for use.
For the membrane dryer to work as intended, the dryer is connected directly to the air tank without
the use of a check valve. As the membrane dryer contains selective membrane fibres, there is a
small amount of air leakage through them (about 0.5 bar/30 min).
As a result, there is a gradual, slow drop in pressure even when there is no demand for compressed
air (from the air tank), however, this is not a malfunction.
The pressure tank is dry and does not need to be drained.
8.3. Compressor cabinet
Fig. 3 The soundproof cabinet provides compact covering of the compressor, dampens noise
efficiently, providing sufficient exchange of cooling air. The fan under the compressor pump provides
cooling of the compressor. It is in operation at the same time with the compressor motor or after
switching on the temperature switch at temperature above 40°C. After cooling the cabinet area
approximately under 32°C, the fan turns off automatically.
Risk of compressor overheating.
Make sure that there are no obstacles at the cooling air inlet into the cabinet
(around the bottom part of the cabinet) and at the hot air outlet on the top back
side of the cabinet.
If the compressor is placed on a soft floor, e.g. carpet, create space between the
base and the floor or the cabinet and the floor, e.g. underlay the footings with
hard pads to ensure sufficient cooling of the compressor.
