2. INSPECTION AND INSTALLATION
2.1 Incoming Inspection and Transportation
All dryers are tested and inspected at the factory prior to shipping. Thoroughly inspect and verify the integrity of the
packaging upon receipt and note any damage on the freight bill. Place the unit as close as possible to the installation
point before unpacking the contents and inspect for concealed damage. Freight claims are to be filed with the carrier
immediately and the manufacturer’s technical service department notified thereafter.
To move the packaged unit, we suggest the use of a suitable crane or forklift. We do not recommend moving the
unit by any hand operated or manual mechanism.
Handle with care. Heavy blows could cause irreparable damage.
Even when packaged, keep the machine protected from severe weather.
The packaging materials are recyclable. Each material must be properly disposed in a manner complying
with the rules and regulations of the local municipality government.
2.2 Design and Use of the Dryer
This dryer has been designed, manufactured and tested to be used only to separate the humidity normally contained in
compressed air, any other use is considered to be improper. The manufacturer is not responsible for any problems
arising from the improper use of this machine.
The end user, in any and all cases, is responsible for any resulting damages.
Moreover, the correct use of this machine requires the verification of certain installation conditions, in particular:
Voltage and frequency of the electrical power supplied
Pressure, temperature, flow rate and chemical composition of the incoming compressed air
Ambient temperatures
The dryer is supplied as tested and fully assembled. The only operation left for the end user is the connection to the plant
and adjustment of the purge rate in compliance with the instructions given in this manual. Factory settings are at
nominal conditions at 100 psig and the stated model flow rate (see page 5).
The purpose of the machine is the separation of water vapor that is present in compressed air. It is not
intended to separate oil or other contaminants that are present in compressed air.
The dried compressed air output from this dryer cannot be used for respiration purposes of any kind.
2.3 Location and Installation
Serious consideration should be given when selecting the installation site for the dryer, as an improper
location could directly affect the proper operation of the dryer.
This unit is not suitable to be used in explosive atmospheres, where risk of fire could exist, in the presence
of gaseous or solid pollutants or in outdoor applications or areas exposed to the elements.
Do not use water to extinguish fire on the dryer or in the surrounding area.
Machine level noise could be higher than 85 dBA. Install the unit in a dedicated area where people are not
normally present. The installer and/or end user is responsible for the correct installation of the dryer in
order to prevent excessive noise exposure in the work environment. The installer and/or end user is
responsible to install proper safety signs at the installation site.
