  First, shut off the compressed air source. 

 

Then  press  and  hold  ESC+▼,  which  will 
open  all  the  solenoid  valves  (inlet  and 
regeneration) for 10 seconds and then vent 
the  pressure  from  the  equipment  and 
connected 

pneumatic 

circuits 

and 

elements  that  are  not  separated  from  the 

equipment by the check valve 

Manual venting of pressure 

  Turn off the compressor. 

  Open the vent plugs on the outlet module 

on the equipment (Fig. 21).

  Disconnect the hose (2) from the lower part of the condensate separator (3). (Fig. 22) 

Fig. 22: Venting pressure from the cooler and condensate separator 

 

The  process  of  manually  venting  pressure 
from  the  equipment  is  complete  after 
approximately 2 minutes.

Replacement  of  the  dryer´s 

internal filters 

 

Working 

with 

pressurised 

pneumatic components poses a 
risk of injury. 

Prior  to  any  work,  disconnect 
the  equipment  from  the  mains, 
shut  off  the  compressor  and 
vent 

all 

pressure 

in 

the 

equipment to zero.

 

In  normal  operation,  filter  replacement  must 
be performed in the upper part of the dryer at 
the defined interval.
