(Pls. turn to plumber or specialized dealer)
The casting result is mainly effected by speed of building up air pressure.
Reference speed range fom –0,8 bar to 3.0 bar in 1-2 sec.
Therefore:
a) Ensure a short distance to the compressor
b) Flow opening of all connections and hoses: minimum 8 mm
c) Minimum air pressure: 6 bar (admissible pressure drop of the device: max. 0,5 bar)
d) Minimum tank volume 80 l or free compressor performance / permanent
compressed air supply 50 l/min.
e) Don’t bend the supply hoses
f) Keep compressed air supply free from water, dust and oil (normally a water
separator is installed, that has to be looked after regularly (see chapter “Maintenance”)
