13.15 Temperature Effect on Filter Life
This Filter Replacement Frequency Calculation Table is based on total hours of compressor runtime. The table
values are based on pressure maintenance valve calibrated to 2900 psi (200 bar). Higher pressures will affect
overall performance. Filter Replacement
“Life Factors” are discussed in section 20.2.
The active carbon filters are classified as special waste once the compressor has been used to make
air. They must be disposed of in compliance with the local antipollution standards in force.
13.16 Condensate Discharge
An outflow of condensate water with lubricating oil is normal during refills: the quantity will depend on the level
of humidity in the air. The condensate must be disposed of as per
your local “Waste disposal” rules.
The condensate tank must be drained at the end of every working day or every 2 to 3 hours of
operation. The compressor condensate must be drained every 5-10 minutes of operation.
The Dashboard operates the condensate discharge
“auto drain” automatically. Users can set the auto drain
timer in the Dashboard. The yellow TEST PURGE button (Figure 3, page 16) should be pressed every day to
make sure that the auto drain is working properly.
The condensate is collected in a tank (Figure 30); periodically check this tank
to prevent overfill and consequent leakage of the condensate liquid. The tank
is equipped with a sensor that will alarm if the condensate tank is overfull.
Once drained, the alarm can be reset in the Dashboard.
To empty the tank, remove the condensate drain hose, disconnect the sensor,
and empty the tank. Reverse the process to reinstall the tank components and
put the can back in its housing.
An outflow of condensate water with lubricating oil is normal during refills: the
quantity will depend on the level of humidity in the air. Condensate must be
disposed of according to the instructions shown in section 15.4, Waste
Disposal.
