AOK 13PA - Installation and operating manual

Connection from the side (horizontal inlet connection)
Use vertical connection to mount venting line back to
pressure equipment (e.g. pressure vessel). Venting line
prevents creation of air bubbles assuring constant flow
of condensate to the drain.
When no venting line is used. A drainage pipe must
be inclined towards the condensate drain so the air
can escape from the pipe and drain.
In case no venting line is used, please
make sure that unused inlet
connections are sealed properly
!
Installation should only be done as described in the section “Installation”.
Any other form of installation beyond this shall be considered inappropriate.
We shall have no liability whatsoever for any damage incurred as a result.
It is strongly recommended that waste condensate from discharge port is connected to
water treatment application, such as water oil separator to protect the environment from
pollution and to comply with environmental laws.
Installation procedure
1.
Assure there is no pressure in the system
2.
Visually check the drain that there is no damage that would impact drains operation
3.
Choose appropriate way of installation (horizontal or vertical inlet)
4.
Assure that drainage line is without any impurities that would clog the drain
5.
Mount the drain to a pressure equipment
6.
Slowly pressurize the system
RECCOMENDATIONS
•
We recommend the use of ball valve between pressure vessel and inlet connection.
•
We recommend the use of strainer element between pressure vessel and inlet
connection. Regularly check and clean strainer to prevent clog of condensate line.
•
We recommend the use of nipple with venting tube to avoid generation of air bubbles.
Nipple is screwed in inlet connection and is optional equipment.
