When filling is complete, first turn off the cylinder’s valve and then the filling hose connector’s valve and proceed to
air venting using the relief valve on the connector. Finally, safely disconnect the cylinder.
During the filling procedure, cylinder’s temperature will rise. Let it cool down. Pressure will slightly drop. If you
wish, re-connect the cylinder with the filling hose (following the same procedure) and fill until the maximum filling
pressure.
Never open the filling hose connector valve, unless the cylinder is connected to the filling hose. Hose
whipping due to pressurized air can cause serious injury!
Condensate drainage
Each time you stop the compressor open the manual drain valves (one under the separator and one under the final
filter) so as to remove condensate.
During every start of the compressor, open only the drain valve of the 2nd
stage.
Then during the regular operation of the compressor open both 2
nd
and 3
rd
stage drain valves every 15 (2
nd
stage) & 20 (3
rd
– final stage) minutes.
Condensate color is milky-white. If condensate suddenly changes color or start smelling, this is indication of oil
presence. Immediately check:
1.
oil quality
2.
oil level
3.
filters’ condition and especially the condition of activated carbon filter
4.
air inlet filter’s condition
5.
piston rings and cylinders condition
Automatic drain system
Optional equipment.
The system consists of two timer controlled condensate drains, one after the 2
nd
, and
one after the final stage and the BA filter. The drains are controlled electronically and
open automatically.
In case of emergency (damaged auto drain system), the user may use the two manual
drains. During routine operation open both drain valves every 20 minutes.
Max. operating pressure:
2
nd
stage drain valve: 80 bar
3
rd
stage drain valve: 250 or 350 bar
300bar Filling
All the using filling
cylinders must be in accordance
with international standards and
directives.
They must have the
corresponding mark (symbol
and technical data) at its neck
and a valid hydraulic
overpressure certificate test.
Cylinder valve has to be DIN300
(according to EN 144-2).
