Disconnect the tubes from the bottom of the bowls (if tied into condensate drain system).

To remove the bowls from the TS and some CS models, push the bowl latch down and rotate the
bowl while pulling down. To remove the bowls from some CS and S Series models, remove the
screws holding the bowl to the cover, and pull the bowl off.
11.
Inspect the bowls. If the drain system is working properly, the bowls should not be full of water.
12.
Remove the filter element by unscrewing it off. Take notice of how the element looks. If the element
is excessively dirty, more frequent filter changes is recommended.
NOTE: A plugged drain system will cause water and oil to carry over into the adsorber, which will cause
permanent damage to the media inside the nitrogen generator. Such damage is not covered by the
manufacturer's warranty. Use of filters other than those specified by South-Tek Systems could result in
damages not covered by the warranty.
