Air Source
Warning
1) Use clean air. Do not use compressed air containing chemicals, organic solvent, synthetic oil or
corrosive gas as it may be cause of breakage of components or operation failure.
2) Air containing too much moisture may deteriorate the performance. Install the refrigerated air dryer
or aftercooler before the activated carbon filter.
3) Make sure that the supply pressure is not below the minimum operating pressure. If it is used at the
minimum operating pressure or less, pressure resistance increases, leading to the decrease of
operation life or operation failure.
Caution
1) On the inlet side of the activated carbon filter, install a micro mist separator (AMD series) as a
pre-filter to eliminate oil droplets and oil aerosol.
Maintenance
Warning
1) Release the pressure in the product to the atmosphere when replacing parts or removing piping.
2) Maintenance and checks should be done by following the procedure in the operation manual.
Incorrect handling of the product may cause breakage or operation failure of the equipment or
device.
3) Do not touch the product when operating at high temperature (40 to 60
o
C). The operators may get
burnt. Be sure to confirm that the temperature of the container or operating part is reduced to 40
o
C
or less to prevent burns.
4) Periodically check the bowl internal surface for dirt. If any dirt is observed, clean the bowl interior
with neutral detergent for household used to remove the foreign matters and oil content.
Accumulation of foreign matters and scale causes the performance to drop.
5) Replace the element before 1 year or 2000 operating hours passed from start of use as it may
deteriorate the performance.
The replacement period of the element varies depending on the operating conditions. Even before
the aforementioned replacement period is reached, replace the element if oil smell comes out from
the outlet side.
Caution
1) Check the element periodically and replace it with a new one if necessary. If it is found that outlet
pressure drops or the flow is restricted, check the condition of the element.
