Adjusting System Pressure
The pressure control valve (
PCV1
) downstream of the Oil Heater is factory set at 16.5 BAR (240
PSIG) at the heater process temperature of 82
o
C (180
o
F). Initially, the filter inlet and outlet
pressures will vary due to higher oil viscosity at start-up.
Once the oil temperature approaches the normal operating range, the pressure will return to the
normal operating setting of approximately 240 PSIG (16.5 BAR). Slight adjustment to the
operating pressure may be necessary. If the pump discharge pressure is too low, adjust PCV1 by
turning adjustment screw clock-wise to increase the oil pressure and c-clockwise to decrease the
oil pressure setting. Once adjusted, the filter discharge pressure range should be 210-240 PSIG
(14.5-16.5 BAR).
A pressure relief valve is installed on the inlet side of the oil filter. The relief valve is factory set at
290 PSIG (20 BAR). If the oil pressure will not reach 240 PSIG (16.5 BAR) the relief valve may
have operated and opened. See the trouble shooting section of this manual for additional
information.
NOTICE:
Wear appropriate personal protective gear.
Surfaces are HOT
WARNING
Check oil filter discharge pressure
