System Air Supply
Supply air pressure should be 4.0−7.6 bar (58−110 psi). The 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.
To provide air to your system, an input air kit with connectors, couplings,
and 25 ft. of 10-mm air tubing is available. Refer to the Parts section for
filter kits, replacement elements, and input air kit part numbers and ordering
information.
Filter Installation
See Figure 3-6.
1. Use the mounting bracket (4) as a template to mark and drill mounting
holes in the selected mounting surface. Make sure there is sufficient
clearance to connect air tubing and change the filter element.
2. Install the two male connectors (2) included in the kit in the filter input
and output ports.
3. Install the mounting bracket on the filter, using the included M5 screws
(3), on the side of the filter opposite the release latch (6).
4. Mount the filter with customer-supplied fasteners (7).
5. Note the orientation of the flow indicator (5) on the top of the filter. Use
10-mm blue air tubing connect the air supply to the filter and the filter to
the controller.
