5) If the air equipment is mounted on the outlet of the product, particles will be generated from the equipment and required cleanliness may not be obtained. Instead, install the air equipment at the inlet. Caution AD27-D with auto drain may have leakage of accumulated drain during pressure exhaust (this leakage is allowed in their constructions and not considered failure).

3) Connect piping/fittings using the recommended torque while holding the female thread side tightly. Insufficient tightening torque can cause loose piping or sealing failure. Excess tightening torque may cause damage to threads. If the female side is not held while tightening, excessive force will be applied to the bracket directly, causing breakage.

5) Check for dirt in resin bowl periodically. If any dirt is seen, replace with new bowl. If removing dirt by washing the resin bowl, never use washing material other than neutral detergent. Otherwise, the bowl is damaged. 6) Open and close drain cock by hand. The use of tools can result in damage to the product. 7) Replace the element before 2 years passed from start of use or pressure drop (difference between the inlet pressure and outlet pressure) reaches 0.1MPa.
