Connecting the Air Supply
5. Connecting the Air Supply
All electrical and pneumatic connections are made to the lower rear of the unit, this is the only point of
interconnection to the sealer.
UK Europe and Asia supplied units.
The unit is supplied with a 6mm push-in connector to fit into the 1/4 BSP inlet.
USA supplied units.
The unit is supplied with a 1/4 inch push-in connector to fit into the Filter Regulator input.
When fitting an air connector to the ALPS 3000 always use 2 spanners, one to tighten the connector and
one to prevent the bulkhead fitting from turning. If the bulkhead fitting is allowed to rotate it may become
loose.
The air supply for the ALPS 3000 should be 80psi (5.5 bar) and a maximum of 87psi (6 bar).
The supply should be able to provide 50 litres/minute through a pressure regulator as there is no regulation
of the air within the ALPS 3000 Exceeding the maximum pressure may damage the unit. The air supplied
must be clean, dry and oil-free. Most air regulators include a water filter but not an oil filter; this may need
to be fitted separately.
