2. – OFF TIME – Press the “Select” button until the “OFF TIME” LED indicator is illuminated, then
press the “Adjust” button until the required OFF TIME in seconds is shown on the Digital Readout.
OFF TIME is the length of time between successive cleaning pulses. OFF TIME should be
adjusted to maintain a differential pressure of 2”-3” W.G. Initial suggested OFF TIME for this unit is
30 seconds. After operating experience has been gained, the OFF TIME setting may be adjusted
to the maximum time possible that will maintain effective cartridge cleaning, which will conserve
compressed air. Effective cartridge cleaning is directly related to the differential pressure. The
differential pressure gauge is located on the exterior of the filter housing.
3. – NUMBER OF VALVES CONNECTED – Press the “Select” button until the “# VALVE” LED
indicator is illuminated, then press the “Adjust” button until the required NUMBER OF VALVES
CONNECTED is shown on the Digital Readout.
4. – BLOWDOWN CYCLES – Press the “Select” button until the “# OFFS” LED indicator is
illuminated, then press the “Adjust” button until the required number of BLOWDOWN CYCLES is
shown on the Digital Readout. Caution: Do not over-clean the filters.
5. – SETTINGS LOCKED – Press the “Select” button until the “LOCKED” LED indicator is
illuminated. All settings are now locked in and the Digital Readout will display the last setting, which
is the number of blowdown cycles programmed. The “#OFF’S LED” indicator will also stay
illuminated.
System Startup-Up
1. Check filter cartridges for proper installation
2. Check all air and electrical connections for proper routing. The compressed air supply should be
connected to the 3/4" NPT coupling located on top of the dust filter. Turn on the compressed air
supply. Pressure should be between 80-100 PSIG.
3. When all components are operating correctly, start the dust laden air through the filter and observe
the differential pressure at the gauge. (The differential pressure is the air resistance across the filter
cartridges). The pressure should stabilize between 2” and 3” W.G. Never allow pressure drop
across the filter to exceed 10” W.G., this may damage the filter cartridges. If the differential
pressure is high, decrease the OFF TIME on the timer board to clean the cartridge(s) more
frequently, which will lower your differential pressure.
