General Safety Information
Installation
Location
Air Compressor Intake
Locate air compressor so that contaminants potentially
harmful to the dryer are not drawn into the air system.
Free Air Flow
Do not block either side of the cabinet. Observe mini-
mum installation clearances as shown below.
Mounting
Dryer is suitable for floor or shelf mounting.
Piping connections
Air Inlet
Connect compressed air
line from air compressor to
air inlet using strainer sup-
plied.
Install strainer (included in
shipping carton) prior to
dryer inlet using pipe nipple
supplied or other piping as
required.
NOTE:
•
Observe flow direction arrows on strainer.
•
Install strainer where it is easily accessible for clean-
ing.
•
Use vibration dampener if vibration exists in air line
at inlet to dryer.
For maximum capacity, install unit in air system at high-
est pressure possible (for example, before pressure
reducing valves).
For maximum capacity, install unit at coolest com-
pressed air temperature possible. Maximum inlet com-
pressed air temperature is 180°F (82°C). If inlet air
exceeds this temperature, precool the air by extending
the piping between the compressor and the dryer.
Air Outlet
Connect air outlet to downstream air lines.
Bypass Piping
If servicing the unit without interrupting the air supply is
desired, piping should include inlet and outlet isolation
valves and an air bypass valve.
Condensate Drain
It is advisable to connect drain outlet to the condensate
drainage system.
NOTE: Drain discharge is at system pressure. Drain line
should be anchored to prevent whipping.
CAUTION
