TURBOBLAST® SAFETY AIR GUN INSTALLATION & MAINTENANCE
COMPRESSED AIR REQUIREMENTS
For all products covered in this literature, EXAIR recommends the compressed air supply includes pressure-relieving
regulators, filter separators, and oil removal filters rated for a pressure of at least 250 PSIG (17.2 BAR, 1.72 MPa). In addition,
filter separators used with nozzles should have a minimum of 25-micron filtration, and oil filters should have a minimum of
0.03-micron filtration for all TurboBlast Safety Air Guns models. Use a supply pipe equal to or greater than the 1
compressed air inlet. Do not use restrictive fittings that can “starve” the TurboBlast Safety Air Gun by causing excessive line
pressure drop. Information on certain air nozzles that are part of a TurboBlast Safety Air Gun is shown above on this
“Installation and Maintenance” sheet for your convenience.
COMPRESSED AIR SUPPLY
With proper filtration and separation of dirt, moisture, and oil from the compressed air supply, the TurboBlast Safety Air Gun
will operate for years with no maintenance required.
Use a 25 micron or smaller filter separator on the compressed air supply, Model 9002 Automatic Drain Filter Separator for
TurboBlast models 1914, 1914SS, 1915, 1915SS, 1924, 1924SS, 1925 and 1925SS. For TurboBlast models 1916, 1917, 1926
and 1927 use Model 9066 Automatic Drain Filter Separator. For Model 1918 and 1928, consult the factory for sizing
recommendations.
To prevent problems associated with oil, use a Model 9006 Oil Removal Filter for TurboBlast models 1914, 1914SS, 1915,
1915SS, 1924, 1924SS, 1925 and 1925SS. For TurboBlast models 1916, 1917, 1926 and 1927 use Model 9010 oil removal
filter. For Models 1918 and 1928, consult the factory for sizing recommendations. The oil removal filter should be used
downstream from the automatic drain filter separator. Filters should be located close to each TurboBlast Safety Air Gun,
within 10 to 15' (3 to 4.6m) is best.
TurboBlast Safety Air Guns are designed to use normal shop air supplies up to 120 PSIG (8.3 BAR, 827 kPa). For infinite
control of flow and force, pressure may be regulated. Use Model 9009 Pressure Regulator for TurboBlast models 1914,
1914SS, 1915, 1915SS, 1924, 1924SS, 1925 and 1925SS. Use Model 9067 Pressure Regulator for all other models.
