4.4.3. INTERMEDIATE SEPARATOR
DESCRIPTION
An intermediate separator is mounted on the compressor
between 2nd and 3rd stage. It is designed to remove water
and oil accumulating due to cooling the compressed me­
dium down after the compression process.
Separation is achieved by means of centrifugal action pro­
vided by a vortex plate.
INTERMEDIATE SEPARATOR MAINTENANCE
Proper operation will rely on the intermediate separator
being properly serviced.
Open drain tap (1, Fig. 18) and drain off condensate every
15 to 30 minutes during operation.

4.4.4. FILTER SYSTEM P11
DESCRIPTION
The air leaving the final stage is cooled in the after-cooler
to approx. 10 - 15
°
C (18 - 27
°
F) above ambient tempera­
ture and then enters filter system P11 with TRIPLEX long­
life cartridge (Fig. 19).
The filter assembly consists of separator and cartridge
chamber. In the separator surrounding the cartridge
chamber liquid oil and water particles are reliably separated
from the compressed medium.
Residual oil and water vapors are then removed by the
TRIPLEX longlife cartridge. The quality of the breathing air
produced conforms to DIN EN 12021.

CARTRIDGE SAFETY BORE
The filter system P11 is designed to prevent pressurizing in
the absence of the filter cartridge. A bore provided in the
filter head is sealed air-tight only if the cartridge is in place
(Fig. 20).
No pressure build-up without cartridge!
Without cartridge the venting bore is not sealed, the air es­
capes into the atmosphere, no pressure can be built up and
thus it is ensured, that unfiltered air is not supplied to the
consuming device.
The venting bore is also used to check the O-rings on the
cartridge pin. If air is leaking out of the venting bore even
