Assembly and Putting into Service
4.1
General Assembly Instructions on site
The air amplifier can be installed in any position you require.
Fixing angles are provided to anchor the air amplifier. It is important that no foreign
matter (e.g. drilling dust during wall mounting) should enter into the air amplifier
ports during assembly. Do not remove the blind plugs from the air amplifier ports
until immediately before you attach the corresponding ports.
4.2
Compressed Air System
The compressed air port requires a Maximator compressed air control unit to be
fitted downstream of the air amplifier.
This air control unit consists of a pressure filter, water separator, shut-off valve,
pressure controller, manometer and, where applicable, a safety valve.

Compressed air control unit
If no compressed air control unit is fitted when operating an air amplifier, the
compressed air quality must be ensured in accordance with MAXIMATOR's
requirements.
NOTE
Always ensure that you apply the same torque (8 Nm) to stud bolts and nuts when
assembling air amplifiers, as this will prevent the top and bottom parts of the air
amplifier from being distorted.
