Installation
1.Install unit vertically in air line -
• vertically (bowl down),
• with air flow in direction of arrow on body,
• upstream of regulators, lubricators, and
cyclingvalves,
• as close as possible to the air supply when
used asa main line filter,
• as close as possible to the device being
serviced when used as a final filter.
2. Before assembling the basic unit into the yoke
the port seal o-rings should be lightly smeared
with o-ring grease.
3. Locate clamp ring under lugs on top of yoke,
offerbasic unit into yoke with directional
arrows correctly aligned (an interference fit
prevents assembly if misaligned) before
engaging and fullytightening the clamp ring.
4. Turn bowl or bowl guard fully clockwise into
body before pressurizing. Lock symbols on
body andbowl guards must align.
5. Auto-drain units may be fitted with a short
drain pipe and connector, minimum 5 mm
bore, to theG1⁄8 bottom outlet.
6. Push bowl, or bowl with guard, into body and
turnfully clockwise before pressurizing.
7. Install a Norgren general purpose filter with a
5 µm element upstream of the oil removal filter
to obtainmaximum element service life.
8. Turn bowl into body until arrowhead on bowl
is aligned with or to the right of the arrowhead
on the body.

Servicing
1. Open manual drain to expel accumulated
liquids.Keep liquids below element (58, 60).
2. To operate automatic drain manually, lift
operatingpin in bottom outlet with a blunt rod.
3. Replace filter element when pressure drop
acrosselement exceeds 0,7 bar (10 psig). The
mechanicalservice indicator shows
approximately full red.
Diassembly
1. Shut off inlet pressure. Reduce pressure in
inletand outlet lines to zero.
2. For ease of maintenance the unit can be
removedfrom the yoke by unscrewing the
clamp ring, whichwill jack the unit out down
wards.
3. Lift and turn the filter bowl counterclockwise
and remove with bowl o-ring.
4. Disassemble in general accordance with the
item numbers on exploded view. Do not
remove thedrains or the service indicator
unless replacementis necessary. Remove and
replace only if theymalfunction.
