2. Confirm that condensate is discharging from the drain valve.
3. Check drain valve timing. See Electronic Drain Valve section for drain valve adjust-
ment procedure.
4. Check that the main electrical supply voltage matches the voltage specified on the
dryer data plate.
5. Check proper connection and support of compressed air lines to the dryer; check
bypass valve system, if installed.
6. Ensure adequate ventilation for air-cooled dryers.
7. Confirm that the inlet air temperature, pressure and airflow to the to the dryer meet the
specified requirements (see Table 4 & 5)
8. confirm that the condensate lines from the drain valve discharge into a collection tank
or an environmentally-approved disposal system.
9. If the refrigerant Suction Pressure Gauge is out of range, refer to the Field Service
Guide for information or contact your local distributor.
The dryer is designed to run continuously. Let the dryer run even when the demand for
compressed air is interrupted; the dryer will not freeze up.
IMPORTANT
Energize dryer for 4 hours before refrigeration compressor is started! Never use the
disconnect switch to shutdown the dryer for an extended period of time (except for
repair). Failure to follow these instructions may result in a non-warrantable compressor
failure.
