Maintenance
Take measures to prevent people from coming into direct contact with
product outlets.
Failure to do so may result in burns or other injury from the discharge of fluids.
Be sure to use only the recommended components when repairing the
product, and NEVER attempt to modify the product in any way.
Failure to observe these precautions may result in damage to the product and
burns or other injury due to malfunction or the discharge of fluids.
Operational Check
A visual inspection of the following items should be done on a daily basis to
determine whether the product is operating properly or has failed. Periodically (at
least biannually) the operation should also be checked by using diagnostic
equipment, such as a stethoscope or thermometer. (Installation, inspection,
maintenance, repairs, disassembly, adjustment and valve opening/closing should be
carried out only by trained maintenance personnel.)
Check to see if air is flowing from the separator outlet. Check all flow meters and
check the differential pressure.
If there is insufficient flow or differential pressure is too large, disassemble and check
for clogging of the screen.
If the product should fail, it may cause damage to piping and equipment, resulting in
faulty or low quality products or losses due to air leakage.
Trap Operational Check
Normal
:
Condensate is discharged continuously from the trap, and nothing
but condensate is discharged.
Blocked
(Discharge
Impossible)
:
No condensate is discharged from the trap outlet.
Blowing
:
Air continuously flows from the trap outlet.
Leakage
:
Air is discharged through the trap outlet together with the
condensate.
