The underpressure in the intake filter is monitored by ser
vice indicator (4, Fig. 109). As soon as the max. allowable
underpressure is reached, indication will change from
green to red. A clogged filter may also lead to shut-down
of the compressor by the min./max. pressure sensors, if
provided! Refer to chapter A.11. In this case change filter
element (2) as follows:
- Open clips and remove cover (3).
- Remove filter element (2).
- Clean the inside of the filter housing with a damp cloth,
take care to prevent any dust entering the intake mani
fold.

4. INTERMEDIATE SEPARATORS
The pressure vessel is subject to dynamic
load. It is designed to withstand a certain
no. of load cycles. (1 load cycle = 1 pres
surization, 1 depressurization) at the spe
cified pressure range. The pressure vessel
must be replaced when the maximum permissible no.
of load cycles has been reached. Refer to the pressure
vessel operating manual delivered with the unit.
4.1. MAINTENANCE
Apart from the regular condensate drain the intermediate
separators are maintenance-free.
4.1.1. Condensate drain
Drain condensate every 15 to 30 minutes from these separ
ators or ensure that the automatic condensate drain unit
drains regularly. See chapter 10.
