Pre-filter, and depth filters are supplied with an electronically level-controlled condensate drain, type
BEKOMAT®, as standard. Please observe the instructions in the corresponding documentation.
DO NOT DISPOSE OF THE CONDENSATE INTO THE ENVIRONMENT
The condensate collected in the filter contains oil particles released into the air stream by the compressor.
Dispose the condensate in compliance with all local, state and Federal rules and regulations. We highly
recommend the installation of either a QWIK-PURE® or ÖWAMAT® oil-water separator at the final collection
point for all condensate discharge lines within the facility (i.e. from the main header).
CHECKS AND MAINTENANCE
To guarantee high operation and functional safety, regular checks are necessary. Any discovered defects must be
immediately reported to the competent department.
For an emergency, a possibility for the shut-off of the plant section must be provided.
Daily:
Carry out a general visual inspection
•
External damage and defects
•
Visually check for any leaks
•
Check differential pressure gauge, Pressure drop increases as element loads with solid particles. Replace when
pressure reaches 10 psi or you see the indicator in the red.
•
Test drain function
Monthly:
•
External damage and defects
•
Visually check for any leaks
•
Check differential pressure gauge, Pressure drop increases as element loads with solid particles. Replace when
pressure reaches 10 psi or you see the indicator in the red.
•
Test drain function
Annually:
•
External damage and defects
•
Visually check for any leaks
•
Check differential pressure gauge, Pressure drop increases as element loads with solid particles. Replace when
pressure reaches 10 psi or you see the indicator in the red or annually whichever occurs first.
•
Service drain, replacement of service unit. Refer to the BEKOMAT® Drain manual for proper maintenance.
Watch for noticeable problems and possible failures during the running operation.
