Appendix B: Air supply requirements
Compressed air is required for the Filta-Max
xpress
Pressure Elution Station to function properly
because it supplies the air pressure needed to elute the Filter Modules. IDEXX supplies a hose kit
that lets you connect your facility’s air supply to the Pressure Elution Station. The hose kit consists
of a 12-foot self-retracting hose and connector.
Note:
The air supply should be set to a minimum pressure of 5.0 bar (72.5 psig) and a maximum of
8.0 bar (116 psig).
For details regarding the air supply, refer to pages 10–11 or call IDEXX Technical Service.
