CARBON FILTER CARTRIDGE:
There are two types of cartridges : for electrical compressors (picture on the left) the filter removes water and oil
residues. For compressors driven by fuel engines (picture on the right), in addition to water and oil, the filter removes
CO.
The steps for the replacement of the cartridges are as follows:
•
Depressurize the entire system before performing any operation.
•
Unscrew the filter head and handle it carefully to avoid damaging it.
•
Unscrew the cartridge.
•
Wipe with a clean cloth the inside of the filter.
•
Insert the new cartridge inside the filter housing.
•
Check the condition of the O-ring of the filter and change it with an original O-ring, if
damaged.
•
Screw the filter head by hand (do not use any tools).
The life of a cartridge depends upon many factors including environmental conditions,
ambient air humidity, temperature, air flow rate of the compressor, the size of the cartridge
itself, etc.
The new cartridge should be kept in dry environments. Cartridges are vacuum packed to
maintain reliability and the package must remain closed until the cartridge is ready to use.
The cartridge should always be changed if it has exceeded an idle time of 2 months mounted
on the compressor without being used. It is recommended you use only original materials
supplied by Nardi Compressori. The users who wish to regenerate their cartridges have to be
well prepared to do this and should use only materials from Nardi Compressori.
The tables provided by us have been developed using constant parameters and apply to new
cartridges, not regenerated, as supplied by Nardi Compressori.
