Parker CDAS HL 050 - Equipment Location and Installation Requirements

Medium Flow Compressed Air Dryers - IOMI.
LOCATING THE EQUIPMENT
MECHANICAL INSTALLATION
Environment
e equipment should be located indoors in an environment that protects it from direct sunlight, moisture, and dust. Changes in
temperature, humidity, and airborne pollution will aect the environment in which the equipment is operating and may impair the
safety and operation. It is the customers' responsibility to ensure that the environmental conditions specied for the equipment are
maintained.
Space Requirements
e equipment should be mounted on a at surface capable of supporting its own weight plus the weight of all ancillary parts. ere
must be adequate space around the equipment to allow airow and access for maintenance purposes and lifting equipment. A
minimum spacing of approximately 500mm (20 ins) is recommended around all sides of the dryer and 750mm (29.5 ins) above it for
the removal of the desiccant cartridges.
Do Not position the equipment so that it is dicult to operate or disconnect from the electrical supply.
General Requirements
Ensure that each condensate drain is suitably piped away and any euent is disposed of in a legal and responsible manner and
in accordance with local environmental regulations. Condensate drain lines should never be connected together - connect to a
common, vented condensate manifold. Condensate drain lines should be of large internal diameter and short length to eliminate
back pressure which would prevent drainage of condensate. Condensate discharged from water separator and lter oat drains will
lose pressure once it enters the piping. Installing drain lines at height will result in a failure to remove condensate and loss of dryer
dewpoint.
Important Notes:
• Dryer performance may be degraded and warranty will be invalid if above requirements are not followed.
• It is important to ensure that all inlet and outlet piping materials are suitable for the application, clean and debris free.
• e internal diameter of the inlet and outlet piping must be sucient to allow an unrestricted air ow into and out of the
equipment .
• When routing, the piping, ensure that they are adequately supported to prevent damage and leaks in the system.
Warning
e system must be protected with a suitably rated
thermal pressure relief valve.
