 Installation of pipelines
To ensure proper operation of the dryer, its connection to the compressed air system must be 
free from stress. 
  Prior to installation, check all incoming and outgoing compressed air lines and valves for 
damage or contamination. 
  Inspect screw connections and retighten, if necessary (screw connections might become 
loose during transport).
Ensure that the pipelines are not under any stress when installed!
Stress on pipes might result in the rupturing of the lines during operation, re-
sulting in damage to persons and property.
  Connect the dryer to the compressed air system, while heeding rated diameter and 
pressure. 
The  gure below shows a proper installation.

Example of a proper installation with bypass line
  The connecting lines of the preliminary  lter (4) should be at a slight slope towards the 
 lter.
  A shut-off valve (3, 10) at both the inlet and outlet for the compressed air must be in-
stalled.
  In units with bypass line (5) and additional shut-off valve: 
Ensure that the line is installed in such a way that the compressed air  ow must not be inter-
rupted during maintenance of the dryer.
