WARNING
To reduce the risk of serious bodily injury, including
fluid injection, splashing fluid into the eyes or onto the
skin, or injury from the pump starting unexpectedly,
be sure the system includes a bleed-type master air
valve.
Install the air valve between the air regulator outlet
and the device that the regulator is serving. When
relieving system air pressure, close the bleed-type
master air valve to fully relieve air pressure.
Before installing any air line components, blow out the
pipe line to remove scale and other debris. Use pipe
compound or tape sparingly and only on male threads.
Install the regulator in the pipe line so that the flow is in the
direction of the arrow stamped on the body. Locate the
regulator as close as possible to the equipment it serves.
Mounting brackets and nuts are available, see page 12.
To provide a variety of assembly options, a bleed-type
master air valve is not included with all regulator
assemblies. See Accessories, page 11 to order this
valve. Another bleed-type master air valve may also be
installed upstream from the air controls to isolate them for
servicing.
The air to the regulator should be clean. Erratic regulator
operation or loss of regulation is usually caused by dirt in
the disc area. To clean the regulator, see Repair, page 6.
