Slowly open the compressed air inlet valve, installed by the owner, upstream of the adsor-
ber.
Open compressed air outlet line
Slowly open compressed air outlet valve!
Avoid sudden pressure build-up in any circumstance! If pressure builds up too
fast, this may cause damage to the adsorber. Therefore, the compressed air
inlet valve must always be opened quite slowly!
Slowly open the compressed air outlet valve installed by the owner. The pressure should

has fi lled up completely; only then should the valve be opened fully.
The adsorber has then be taken into operation within the compressed air system.
