Regular maintenance intervals
Note:
If a chamber has been depressurised, e.g. after completion of the
expansion phase, and the pressure remains above 0 bar, the chamber
is pressurised by what is known as ram pressure. This might be due
to
 blockage at the muffler(s)
 contamination of the perforated plates
 spent drying agent
To prevent such malfunctions, regularly service the dryer as
described below.
The table provides an overview of the maintenance work to be carried out. The
individual tasks are described in the following pages.
