Piping and Air Connections
IMPORTANT!
Do not apply air pressure to the PCR, PMD, or TOC models unless the unit is also
being supplied with electrical power. Without power, the unit will not cycle and the online
tower will soon become saturated.
There are four ways of connecting the
PHF, PCDA, PHCA and PCME models
. These
models are set-up at the factory such that the airflow through the unit is from left-to-right
(as you face the front of the unit). If an alternative arrangement is desired (airflow from
right-to-left or in/out on the same side), the port plugs on either side of the unit can be
rearranged accordingly. Please note that the arrows on the top surface of the manifold
indicate the inlet and outlet ports on both sides.
The inlet for the
PCR model
is in the main body of the lower shuttle valve, while the
outlet is in the upper shuttle valve. Please note that the orientation of both the inlet and
