I. IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTES Please READ When operating the air dryer the operator must apply safe working methods and observe all local safety instructions and relevant regulations. A) Prior to installation, the dryer and the compressed air system are to be depressurized and disconnected from the electrical main supply.
1.5. Qualified service personnel A) Maintenance and repairs should only be performed when the air dryer is shut down and depressurized and when the main power switch is turned off. B) Use only the appropriate tools for maintenance and repair. C) Before dismantling a part under pressure, disconnect the pressure sources and depressurize the system.

7) Refrigerant circuit controls A) Liquid refrigerant injection: The liquid refrigerant is into the evaporator by a control valve. This valve is a thermostatic or pressostatic one maintaining a constant overheats of the refrigerant in the evaporator(s). B) Constant evaporating pressure: In the dryers equipped with a by-pass valve, the evaporating pressure is kept constant by a controlled injection of hot gas from the high-pressure side into the low-pressure section of the circuit.
3. OPERATION Control panels for MH-US Series The control panel of the dryer includes the following elements: Monophase Digital Controller MH-US-15 - MH-US-100 Digi-Pro IMPORTANT NOTE The Dryer has two Compressed Air Filter inside. It is better to change filter element for the best efficiency when the alarm status is active. It is recommended to keep replacement filter elements in your stock in order to replace them when needed.

4.2 Operation Principles In order to start the dryer, the following conditions must be satisfied. All the temperatures except the exchanger temperature and condenser outlet temperature must be between their low and high limits. The low pressure line temperature can be ‘HIGH’ . Digital Input 3 (Compressor Fault) is not activated.
