Consep Overview
The Consep consists of a condenser/separator and a
Automatic Drain Valve (ADV). The condenser/separator
will condense and separate contaminants from the
compressed air. The drain will expel condensed liquid
and separated contaminants. When it is installed and
adequately cooled, the Consep will extend the life of
the desiccant cartridge.
Consep Anatomy/Function
The compressed air is led into the Consep at the inlet
port on the side of the
Aluminum Housing [1]
. The
compressed air passes between the housing wall and
the
Cyclone Insert [2]
. The shape of the cyclone forces
the compressed air to rotate. The centrifugal effect
which occurs when the air rotates around the cyclone
forces the water and contaminants to the housing
wall. At the base of the cyclone, the compressed air
is directed upwards through the cyclone interior and
out via the outlet port at the top of the housing.
Water and contaminants which have been condensed
and separated flow downwards through a
Filter [3]
and are collected in the sump of the
Automatic Drain
Valve (ADV) [4]
. The liquid contaminants collected in
the ADV are drained when the
Shuttle [5]
is lifted via
electrical activation of the
Solenoid
Coil [6]
.
Automatic Drain Valve (ADV) Function
Pre-Treatment
When air pressure is present and NO
electrical power, the
Shuttle [5]
is
forced against the lower seat. The
entry to the sump is open to receive
liquid contaminants.
With electrical power, the
Solenoid
Coil [6]
generates a magnetic field
which pulls the shuttle against the
upper seat. This closes the entry
to the sump and drains liquid
contaminants collected in the sump.
To manually drain the ADV, push the
Red Manual Drain Button [7]
to
activate drainage.
This function
only works if the ignition is off
and the unit is pressurized.
