Hazard areas on the dryer Symbol in operating Hazard area instructions Warning against hazardous electrical voltage Different parts of the dryer carry electrical current. These parts may be connected, opened, and maintained by authorized specialist personnel only. Warning against overpressure The entire dryer is under pressure.
Function The dryer dries the compressed air supplied by the compressor and makes it available for industrial use. The installed prefilter and after-filter clean the compressed air supplied to the dryer and the compressed air from the dryer to the consumers. The two vessels contain extremely porous desiccants by means of which humidity is removed from the compressed air and stored just as in a sponge.
Pressure build-up phase After dehumidification the pressure in the regenerated hollow section vessel is built up to operating pressure, so that the switchover from regeneration to adsorption can take place at operating pressure level. Switchover When the desiccant in the adsorbing vessel has taken up a sufficient level of humidity, then the switchover between the vessels will be effected between the vessels.
Page 17
A start-up device protects the dryer from excessively high flow rates as it only opens after reaching a preset minimum pressure of approx. 80%, thus maintaining adequate operating pressure in the dryer. A T-piece is supplied with the start-up device, to which the regeneration gas return can be connected.
Transportation, installation and storage Danger due to incorrect transportation! The dryer must be transported by authorized and qualified specialist personnel only. During transportation all applicable national regulations for accident prevention must be complied with. Otherwise there is a risk of personal injury. Danger of toppling over! The dryer has a very high centre of gravity.
Transporting the dryer to its installation site Warning - lifting dryer contrary to instructions! Lifting the dryer contrary to instructions can cause damage. Lift the dryer only with the supplied lifting eyebolts! Transport lugs Transportation using lifting or forklift truck Warning against damage to property! The dryer is supplied upright on a pallet.
