Installation
Filters, regulators and other accessories should undergo proper
maintenance.
The connecting pipe to the system should be flexible and with a di-
ameter not lower than the pipe leaving the machine.
A detect valve is required to isolate the machine from the air distribu-
tion system in case of maintenance.
WARNING !
The machine is equipped with a NON RETURN VALVE; if the
detect valve is closed when the air distribution is operating
some air under pressure could remain inside the connecting
pipe !
Arrange a draining system for the piece of piping between the
compressor and the detect valve.
In case there is the need to disconnect the machine, ensure
that the internal pressure is exhausted before the dismantling
procedure.
Near the machine, derive a flexible hose from the distribution system
and connect it to a blowing gun: it is needed for periodic cleaning of
the radiator, the intake filter and all other machine components.
The air drawn in by compressors contains, in a variable quantity and
depending on the ambient conditions, a certain quantity of water
indicated as relative humidity.
After air has been compressed, it is cooled in a specific radiator, which
all versions of the Mattei compressors are supplied with.
Cooling air produces condensate of a good quantity of the water it
contains.
The condensate produced is separated and drained with an automatic
device (optional).
Please note that condensate should be collected and eliminated
in compliance with current laws.

Compressed air
distribution
Only qualified personnel
should carry out the con-
nection to the air distribution
system, in compliance with
the regulations in force.
The aim of distributing air is to bring com-
pressed air from the machine to the end
users, with the lowest pressure drop and
energy waste.
To avoid losses and wastes, regu-
larly check all pipings of the distribu-
tion equipment and all accessories.
