Operating Manual ECOTROC ATCN 15-110
Should you have to disconnect the oil vapour adsorber from the mains, e.g. for a maintenance
operation, make sure that this work is only carried out when the device is free from pressure.
Wear your personal protective equipment. Proceed as follows:
1. Close the cut-off valves at the inlet and outlet of the adsorber.
2. Open the manual drain on the after-filter housing.
3. Keep an eye on the pressure gauge and wait until it displays „0“ bar before starting
work.
4. Then close the manual cock again.
The oil vapour adsorber is now disconnected from the mains.
8.2 Pressurisation
Only once you‘ve successfully completed all of the checks listed in Section 8.1 can you perform
the following steps in the specified order.
Wear ear protection for this as the flow noise can get very loud.
1. Make sure that the compressed air system is under pressure upstream of the adsorber.
2. Slowly open the cut-off valve upstream of the adsorber until you hear the flow noise.
3. Keep an eye on the pressure gauge on the vessel. Pressurisation must rise slowly.
4. At 4 bar close the inlet shut-off device again. Check all connections for leaks. If leaks are
found, the adsorber must be rendered pressureless again and the leaks must be re-
paired.
5. If no further flow noises can be heard and if the pressure gauge does not indicate any
further increase in pressure, you can open the cut-off valve completely.
Pressurisation has been successful. Check whether the compressed air system downstream of
the adsorber can be opened safely. Then proceed as follows:
1. Slowly open the cut-off valves at the outlet of the adsorber until you hear the flow noise.
2. Keep an eye on the pressure gauge. Should the pressure suddenly drop, check whether
any tapping points are still open.
3. If the pressure remains stable and you no longer hear any flow noise, the cut-off valve
downstream of the adsorber can be opened completely.
4. The oil vapour adsorber is now ready for operation.
