Storing the adsorber
If the adsorber is to be stored for an extended period of time, the storage location must meet
the following conditions:
◊ The adsorber must not be stored in the open air.
◊ The storage room must be dry.
◊ The storage room must be free from dust or the adsorber must be covered by a protective
sheet.
◊ The storage room must have an ambient temperature of at least +1 °C.
In order to store the adsorber proceed as follows:
Take adsorber out of operation as described on page 21 .
Ensure that the compressed air inlet valve installed by the owner, and the installed
compressed air outlet valve installed by the owner, are both closed, and that the adsorber is
depressurised.
Disconnect adsorber from the compressed air system.
Plug the inlet aperture and the outlet aperture of the adsorber to protect against any
possible contamination.
If possible cover adsorber with a protective sheet.
The adsorber can now be stored for long periods.
Note:
If you wish to take the adsorber back into service after an extended period of
storage, please proceed as described for its fi rst commissioning and start-up
(see page 18).
