Suggested components for CAFS discharges:
Discharge kits
Kits are available for most of the valve types (Waterous, Akron, Elkhart) or suggested
components lists are also available. Please contact Pneumax for assistance.
Fittings on all hoses should be 37 JIC.
Air distribution manifold:
Suggest NPT fittings with appropriate number and size ports.
Suggested air hose
The interior diameter (I.D.) of the hose is the most important factor, and any hose with the
correct I.D. and rated to withstand the expected air system pressures (500 PSIG burst
pressure) may be used.
We have found the most cost-effective hose is the push-on type hose, which is made by
Weatherhead. Their H101 or H201 general-purpose hose has an acceptable working
pressure. Also, Dayco, Parker and Aeroquip brands will suffice. All of these hoses come in
a variety of colors for color-coding the lines by purpose.
For the Hydraulic Circuit of the Compressor system, it is necessary to use SAE100R1 or
SAE100R5 at minimum or equivalent.
Hose sizes necessary for installation are:
80-SP 140/200-SP
#4 for the scavenger from the separator filter #4 for the scavenger from the separator filter
#6 for the oil inject and cooler #8 for the oil inject and cooler
#16 for the air out to the sump and sump to
separator filter #24 for the air out to the sump and sump to
separator filter
Air Pressure Gauge
Installer will need to supply air pressure gauge to show system pressures. This gauge is not
supplied in standard kits, since there are many different configurations and brands.
