System Air Connections
System Air Supply
Compressed air should be supplied from an air drop equipped with a
self-relieving shutoff valve. The air must be clean and dry. A refrigerant or
desiccant-type air drier and air filters are recommended.
All systems are shipped with a 0.3-micron air filter. It is important that the
filter be used to prevent contamination of the system pneumatic
components and the powder supply.
Supply air pressure should be 4.0−7.6 bar (58−110 psi).
