The condensate flows through the feed
line (
1
) into the iMAT 14 unit and accu-
mulates in the container (
2
). A capacitive
sensor (
3
) continuously registers the liq-
uid level and passes a signal to the elec-
tronic control as soon as the container is
filled. The pilot valve (
4
) is then activated
and the diaphragm (
5
) opens the outlet
line (
6
) for discharging the condensate.
When the iMAT 14 unit has been emptied,
the outlet line is closed again quickly and
tightly without wasting compressed air.
When the microcontroller registers a
malfunction, the device will automatically
change to the alarm mode. The switching
sequence of the valve (see illustration)
continues until the fault is cleared (auto-
matically or through maintenance). The
red LED
flashes
as long as the device
is in the alarm mode.
Malfunctioning could be caused by, e.g.:
• Mistakes during installation
• Dropping below the necessary mini-
mum pressure
• Excessive condensate quantities (over-
loading)
• Blocked/shut off outlet line
• Extreme amount of dirt particles
• Frozen piping
If the fault is not cleared within the first
minute, a fault signal is triggered (see
illustration) which can be picked off as a
potential-free signal via the alarm relay.
