*The low pressure switch may require more frequent adjustments depending on the ambient conditions. 
 
** The condenser should be cleaned only if the unit is running abnormally high discharge pressure.  Contact 
the factory for verification prior to proceeding with this maintenance item. 
 
MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES 
 

Before performing any maintenance on the machine ensure that air pressure is vented from the 
system.  Also make sure that personnel performing the maintenance have read the maintenance 
section of the manual.   
 
Some of the maintenance tasks will require the refrigeration system to run, but when not required, 
turn the unit off before proceeding. 
 
Upon completion of the maintenance tasks be sure that the machine has been properly reassembled 
prior to restarting and reintroducing air. 
 

 
ROUTINE MAINTENANCE 
 
This section covers the various components that require periodic maintenance and/or replacement.   
 

Coalescing Filter Element 

 
The coalescing filter element should be check Bi-Annually.  On units with the standard control panel, check 
the pressure drop across the unit by using air pressure gauges upstream and downstream of the dryer using 
the closest possible gauges to the dryer.   If it is determined that there is a high pressure drop across the 
machine, remove the filter element from the machine and inspect it.  If the filter is dirty,

 replace it.  Ensure
