Drain and purge Air Filter / Regulator
The purpose of the air filter is to remove moisture and
contaminants from the air supply and protect the air components
of the Dryer. The air filter must be periodically purged of
moisture.
Do not supply Dryer with a lubricated air supply.
Damage to Dryer may result. Use only a clean, dry, oil-
free air supply.
Air Pressure Adjustments
Air Pressure
Air pressure affects the ability to draw a high vacuum. We recommend a
pressure setting of
85 PSI while the dryer is resting idle . Air is used when the
vacuum generator is running so observe the PSI while the Dryer is drawing a
vacuum. The gauge should continue to read this setting even when the vacuum
unit is on. If it does not maintain pressure your supply line is not sized properly.
Do not supply Dryer with a lubricated air supply. Damage to
Dryer may result. Use only a clean, dry, oil-free air supply.
Replacing the Air Filter
The purpose of the air
filter is to remove
contaminants from the
ambient air. The air
filter must be
periodically replaced.
Remove wing nut and slide off filter
housing and filter. Replace with new
filter. Reinstall housing
and wing nut.
