2 Introduction
  is manual refers to refrigeration dryers designed to guarantee high 
quality in the treatment of compressed air.
2.1 Transport
  e packed unit must:
• remain upright;
•  be protected against atmospheric agents;
•  be protected against impacts.
2.2 Handling
Use a fork-li  truck suitable for the weight to be li ed, avoiding any type 
of impact. 
2.3 Inspection
•  All the units are assembled, wired, charged with refrigerant and oil 
and tested under standard operating conditions in the factory;
•  on receiving the machine check its condition: immediately notify 
the transport company in case of any damage;
•  unpack the unit as close as possible to the place of installation. 
2.4 Storage
If several units have to stacked, follow the notes given on the packing. 
Keep the unit packed in a clean place protected from damp and bad 
weather.
3 Installation
Y For the correct application of the warranty terms, follw the instruc-
tions given in the start-up report,  ll it and send it back to Seller.
3.1 Procedures
Install the dryer inside, in a clean area protected from direct atmospher-
ic agents (including sunlight).
In places with  re hazard, provide for a suitable  re-extinguishing sys-
tem.
Y Comply with the instructions given in par. 8.2 and 8.3.
 All dryers must be  tted with adequate pre- ltration near the dryer air 
inlet. Seller is excluded any obligation of compensation or refund for any 
direct or indirect damage caused by its absence
Y Pre- lter element (for 3 micron  ltration or better) must be replaced 
at least once a year, or sooner as per manufacturer recommendations.
Y Correctly connect the dryer to the compressed air inlet/outlet con-
nections,
3.2 Operating space
Y  Leave adequate clearance around the dryer maintenance opera-
tions.
On the condenser side, leave at least 3.94 inches (10 cm) clearance to 
ensure correct air  ow.
3.3 Versions
Air-cooled version (Ac)
Do not create cooling air recirculation situations. Do not obstruct the 
ventilation grilles.
3.4 Tips
To prevent damage to the internal parts of the dryer and air compres-
sor, avoid installations where the surrounding air contains solid and/or 
gaseous pollutants (e.g. sulphur, ammonia, chlorine and installations in 
marine environments).
  e ducting of extracted air is not recommended for versions with axial 
fans.
3.5 Electrical connection
Use approved cable in conformity with the local laws and regulations 
(for minimum cable section, see par. 8.3). Use  copper conductors only, 
rated for a temèerature of a least 140°F(60°C).
Install a di erential thermal magnetic circuit breaker with contact open-
ing distance  3 mm ahead of the system (IDn = 0.3A) (see the relevant 
current local regulations).
  e nominal current In of the magnetic circuit breaker must be equal to 
the FLA with an intervention curve type D.
3.6  Condensate drain connection
 Y Make the connection to the draining system, avoiding connection 
in a closed circuit shared by other pressurized discharge lines. Check the 
correct  ow of condensate discharges. Dispose of all the condensate in 
conformity with current local environmental regulations.
4 Commissioning
4.1 Preliminary checks
Before commissioning the dryer, make sure: 
•  installation was carried out according that given in the section 8.2;
•  the air inlet valves are closed and that there is no air  ow through 
the dryer;
•  the power supply is correct.
4.2 Starting
•  Start the dryer before the air compressor;
•  switch the power on by turning the MAIN SWITCH 
&
 to “I ON” 
( see par. 5.1 for the meaning of the LEDs).
• a er at least 5 minutes slowly open the air inlet valve and subse-
quently open the air outlet valve: the dryer is now performing its air 
drying function
4.3 Operation
•  Leave the dryer on during the entire period the air compressor is 
working;
•   e dryer operates in automatic mode, therefore  eld settings are 
not required;
•  Condensate draining is factory-set in TIMED mode, with max. 
permissible opening equal to 10 seconds; the set time can be decrese 
(see par. 5.2 for details)
•  In the event of unforeseen excess air  ows, by-pass to avoid over-
loading the dryer. 
•  Avoid air inlet temperature  uctuations.
4.4 Stop
•  Stop the dryer 2 minutes a er the air compressor stops or in any 
case a er interruption of the air  ow;
•  Make sure compressed air does not enter the dryer when the dryer 
is disconnected or if an alarm occurs.
•  Turn the MAIN SWITCH 
&
  to “O OFF” to switch the power o .
