Particulate and Coalescing Filter
The particulate and coalescing filter after the air compressor is designed to
capture particulate and moisture prior to entering the rest of the system.
These filters need to be replaced once per year or every 1000 hours,
whichever comes first. To do so,
1.
Make sure there is no pressure on the filter bowls. The gauge after the
filter bowl will read 0 PSIG to indicate that there is no pressure on the
bowl.
2.
Unscrew the filter bowls by turning them counterclockwise.
3.
Once the filter bowls have been removed, rinse any debris out of the
bowls with warm water.
4.
Dry the bowls with a clean dry cloth and replace the old O-rings with
the ones provided in the kit.
5.
Using a Philips-Head screwdriver, remove the particulate element and
replace.
