Commissioning
This should be undertaken by a technically competent person
.
With the generator installed as described earlier remove the front cover. Check that all the internal
components are securely located and have not moved during transit.
Open the air supply and turn the unit
ON.
Set the regulator on the Inlet Filter/Regulator to the desired
pressure.
Check that the cooling fan (ZA180) is operating and exhausting air out of the generator. Check that the
red LED on the temperature control board is lit.
After a period of time (around 40 minutes) the Catalytic Chamber should have reached the required
temperature. When this happens the relay on the Temperature Controller will “click” and the red LED will
go out. The heater will then cycle on & off as required.
Replace the front cover, the generator is now operational.
Do not touch any part of the Catalytic Chamber or Copper Lines as they will be VERY
Hot.

Routine Maintenance
Due to the simplicity of design and the small number of parts the Peak Zero Air Generator will have a
long and trouble free life. However as with all scientific and technical equipment it should be regularly
inspected by a competent person and the following points noted.
1. Inlet Filter. Condensed moisture should be periodically drained from the filter.
2. Temperature Control. Check that the red LED cycles On & Off.
