Maintenance work to be completed every 12 months
Replacing the silencer
The dryer is equipped with silencers. A ram pressure builds up when a silencer is blocked,
which could even cause the silencer to burst.
Risk posed by a blocked silencer!
Dangerous excess pressure may develop at blocked silencers, causing the
silencers to burst. Flying debris could injure persons and damage property.
Silencer elements should therefore be checked annually and replaced if soiled.
Beware of sudden air blast!
Pressure suddenly escapes via the silencer during expansion:
- A loud expansion noise occurs which may damage your hearing.
- Particles carried along with the air fl ow can damage your eyes or skin.
For this reason you must always wear eye and hearing protection when you are
near the dryer!
De-pressurize the dryer and shut it down
(see page 37)
Unscrew the silencer as shown in the illust-
ration to the right.
Fit new silencer in place and screw tight.
Restart the dryer (see page 38).
Unscrewing the silencer
Renew fi lter element of the control air fi lter
The control air fi lter is used to clean the control air and thus ensures that the valve actuators
are working properly. Contaminated or damaged control air fi lters might lead to malfunctions
in the valve actuators. The fi lter must therefore be inspected at least once every year.
