1. Foreword

The maintenance period depends on the air quality and operating conditions, but when either of the

following situations occurs, the booster regulator should be considered to be reaching the end of its life, and

maintenance should be performed sooner.

2. Exhaust sound can be heard at intervals of 10 to 20 seconds without air consumption on the

secondary side.

・Check that air pressure is exhausted from the IN and OUT sides.

・If the silencer is clogged inside, replace it as well.

・Gather replacement parts to one place to prevent them getting mixed up during
