  • Page 11: Transport

    Transport Transport Check the packaging for visible loss or damage. If no visible damage can be ascertained, place the unit in close prox- imity to the place of installation and unpack the device. During this procedure, the dryer must always remain in an upright position. The components may be damaged when the unit is tilted or turned upside down.
  • Page 12: Installation

    The dryer does not need bottom attachment. However, in installations in which the device is suspended, an attaching part will be required for the suspended device. Dryer DRYPOINT RA 3-23, suspended: Part. B = Teil B DRYPOINT® RA 3-160...

    Prior to connecting the device, please check the type plate to avoid exceeding the indicated values. The voltage toler- ance is +/- 5%. DRYPOINT RA 3-60 dryers are supplied with a VDE 16A standard power cord and safety plug (two-pole and earth connection). DRYPOINT RA 80-160 devices have a junction box on the back plate.
  • Page 17: Start-Up

    Start-up 10 Start-up 10.1 Preliminary stages Note! Exceeding of the operating parameters! Ensure that the operating parameters comply with the nominal values indicated on the type plate of the dryer (voltage, frequency, air pressure, air temperature, ambient temperature etc.). Prior to delivery, this dryer was thoroughly tested, packed and checked. Please verify the soundness of the dryer dur- ing the initial start-up and check the perfect functioning during the first operating hours.
  • Page 18: Initial Start-Up

    Start-up 10.2 Initial start-up Note: The dryer must not be started up more than six times an hour. Wait at least five minutes prior to every restart. The user is responsible for the compliance with these provisions. Irreparable damage can be caused by starting up the device too often.

  • Page 25: Refrigerating Compressor

    Technical description 12.5 Refrigerating compressor The gas from the evaporator (low-pressure side) is compressed to condensation pressure (high-pressure side). The employed refrigerating compressors are constructed by leading manufacturers and are designed for applications in which high compression rates are required and where strong temperature fluctuations exist. The hermetically closed construction is absolutely gastight and guarantees a high energy yield and a long service life.
  • Page 26: Filter Dryer

    Technical description 12.9 Filter dryer Despite controlled vacuuming, traces of moisture can accumulate in the refrigeration cycle. The filter dryer serves to absorb this moisture and to bond it. 12.10 Capillary tube The capillary tube is a copper tube with a reduced diameter which is located between the condenser and the evapora- tor, serving as a restrictor to reduce the pressure of the refrigerant.
  • Page 27: Refrigerant Pressure Switches P

    Technical description 12.13 Refrigerant pressure switches P To ensure the operational reliability and the protection of the dryer, a series of pressure switches are installed in the gas cycle.
