Like all precision products, your AIRSTAR requires a certain amount of care on a regularly
scheduled basis. A well-organized maintenance program aids dependable equipment operation
and reduces problems to a minimum. Routine checks help to detect general overall wear, and
replacement of parts can often be made before a problem occurs.
Understanding this, we have established minimum maintenance requirements listed below
that include routine inspections and the replacement of filters using preventive maintenance
kits available for the specific AIRSTAR model. Adherence to this recommended maintenance
schedule will ensure that the equipment will continue performing at its best with uninterrupted
service.
Routine Inspection - Monthly
Clean exterior surfaces.
Check for abnormal noises and air leaks.
Make sure that no ammable, corrosive, or combustible materials are stored in
the equipment room (especially in the area around the equipment).
Check operational range of pressure switch is between 85-115 psi.
Inspect the Moisture Monitor (Figure 4) for a color change:
Blue indicates that the air in the storage tank is dry.
Pink indicates a high level of humidity is in the storage tank. See TROUBLESHOOTING
page 14 to correct this situation.
Note: To comply with NFPA 99C, a 5-micron Filter is installed on the output of all AIRSTAR models.
Routine Inspection - Yearly
Refer to Figure 4 and check the Service Indicator on the 5-micron Outlet Filter.
Red indicates that the lter must be replaced P/N 87168.
Green indicates No service is required.
