Instructions for using the air-oil separator vessel

1. This vessel may contain pressurized air and may be potentially dangerous if the equipment is misused.
2. It should only be used as an air-oil separator and must be operated within the limits specified on the data plate.
3. No change must be made to the vessel by welding, drilling or other mechanical methods without the written consent of
the manufacturer.
4. If the safety valve needs to be replaced, it must follow the manufacturer's specification in full.
5. Use only the oil specified by the manufacturer.
6. In case of equipment misuse (too low oil temperature or long shut-off interval), certain amount of condensate may build
up in the oil separator vessel, which must be properly drained. To do this, disconnect the equipment from the mains,
wait until it cools and depressurize. Drain the condensate through the oil drain valve, located at the bottom of the air-oil
separator vessel.
The local legislation may require periodic inspection of the air-oil separator vessel.
