Safety precautions during installation
Precautions during installation
1. The dryer must only be lifted using suitable equipment and in accordance with the applicable safety
regulations. Loose or pivoting parts must be securely fastened before lifting. It is strictly forbidden to
dwell or stay in the risk zone under a lifted load. Lifting acceleration and deceleration must be kept within
safe limits. Wear a safety helmet when working in the area of overhead or lifting equipment.
2. Place the dryer where the ambient air is as cool and clean as possible. If necessary, install a suction duct.
Never obstruct the air inlet. Care must be taken to minimize the entry of moisture at the inlet air.
3. Any blanking flanges, plugs, caps or desiccant bags must be removed before connecting the pipes.
4. Air hoses must be of correct size and suitable for the working pressure. Never use frayed, damaged or
worn hoses. Distribution pipes and connections must be of the correct size and suitable for the working
pressure.
5. The aspirated air must be free of flammable fumes, vapours and particles, e.g. paint solvents, that can lead
to internal fire or explosion.
6. Arrange the air intake so that loose clothing worn by people cannot be sucked in.
7. Ensure that all piping is free to expand under heat and that it is not in contact with or close to flammable
materials.
8. No external force may be exerted on the air outlet valve. The connected pipe must be free of strain.
9. If remote control is installed, the machine must bear a clear sign stating "Danger: This machine is remotely
controlled and may start without warning".
The operator has to make sure that the machine is stopped and that the isolating switch is open and locked
before any maintenance or repair. As a further safeguard, persons switching on remotely controlled
machines shall take adequate precautions to ensure that there is no one checking or working on the
machine. To this end, a suitable notice shall be affixed to the starting equipment.
10. Air-cooled machines must be installed in such a way that an adequate flow of cooling air is available and
that the exhausted cooling air does not recirculate to the inlet.
11. The electrical connections must correspond to the applicable codes. The machines must be earthed and
protected against short circuits by fuses in all phases. A lockable power isolating switch must be installed
near the equipment.
12. On machines with automatic start-stop system or if the automatic restart function after voltage failure is
activated, a sign stating "This machine may start without warning" must be affixed near the instrument
panel.
13. Never remove or tamper with the safety devices, guards or insulation fitted on the machine. Every pressure
vessel or auxiliary installed outside the machine to contain air above atmospheric pressure must be
protected by a pressure-relieving device or devices as required.
14. Piping or other parts with a temperature in excess of 80˚C (176˚F) and which may be accidentally touched
by personnel during normal operation must be guarded or insulated. Other high-temperature piping must
be clearly marked.
15. For water-cooled machines, the cooling water system installed outside the machine has to be protected by
a safety device with set pressure according to the maximum cooling water inlet pressure.
16. If no safety valve is present in the air net close to the desiccant dryer (e.g. safety valve of compressor),
full flow safety valves must be installed on the dryer vessels.
17. If the maximum pressure of the compressor is higher than the design pressure of the dryer, a full flow
safety valve must be installed between the compressor and the dryer in order to blow off the excessive
pressure in case the safety valve of the dryer should be out of order or blocked.
