There are two ways to release air from the compressor tank other than through your regulator and the use of air tools:
—The drain valve.
—The safety valve.
To release air by using the drain valve, simply turn the release nut to allow air to flow out of the tank. The drain valve
is shown in
Figure 3
. The drain valve is also used to drain condensation that builds up in the tank.
The safety valve automatically releases pressure if the tank reaches
( 8.8 BAR for
MCFRC230/231/232/233/234/238/239/227/228/229 and PE50300; 13.5 BAR for PE75300, PE 100300, PE100500
and PE150500).
To manually release the air in the tank by using the safety valve:
1.
Locate the safety valve on the tank. The safety valve is shown below in
Figure 6.
Figure 6
. Safety valve.
2.
Pull the metal ring on top of the safety valve to bleed pressure from the tank. Note
—
The ring is preset to release air
if the tank exceeds its
maximum pressure of ( 8.8 BAR for MCFRC230/231/232/233/234/238/239/227/228/229 and
PE50300; 13.5 BAR for PE75300, PE 100300, PE100500 and PE150500).
DO NOT try to adjust the safety valve!
