1.3 Piping connections Model 100 with standard panel or optional I-Controller Level 1 ONLY: Air Inlet - Connect compressed air line from air source Separator has a knurled fitting with flexible drain tubing to air inlet. (Reference markings on dryer or, see callout attached.
(Only Models with I-Controller Level 2) NOTE: The Timer Drain LED level has been pre-programmed at the factory for your specific RNC Series dryer. Programming is based upon a minimum of 100 psi saturated inlet air pressure and maximum energy efficiency. The drain open time is fixed at one second and a small amount of air will be exhausted with each cycle.

Condensate enters the reservoir (1) through the inlet 3.0 MAINTENANCE port. When the condensate level in the reservoir covers the capacitance sensor, an electronic signal is sent to the 3.1 Condenser coil solid state countdown processor. The processor delays Air-cooled - clean off accumulated dust and dirt monthly the opening of the solenoid valve for a given period or as necessary in dirty environments.

3.3 Check separator daily to be sure automatic After making certain that o-ring inside top of bowl (and drain is discharging. on bayonet mount heads, wave spring) are in place, reassemble bowl to head. NOTE: Units with two stage filtration have two sets of drains. NOTE: Make certain o-ring is generously lubricated.
