Electrical Connection Connect the generator to an appropriate 100-230 volt single-phase supply, refer to the generator serial plate for input specification and ensure your supply matches the requirements. If the appropriate power cord is not supplied; a new plug, rated to at least 12 amps, can be fitted by a qualified electrician.
Air Purity The Solaris XE generator should be connected to an air supply that, as a minimum, meets ISO8753-1:2010 Class 1.4.1 Class 1 Particulate In each cubic metre of compressed air, the particulate count should not exceed 20,000 particles in the 0.1 - 0.5 micron size range, 400 particles in the 0.5 - 1 micron range and 10 particles in the 1 - 5 micron size range.
Start-Up Sequence Connect the generator to the application as described in the installation guide. Switch the generator on using the power switch on the rear panel of the unit and connect to the air supply. Please note: Air can flow through the generator without the power switched on, however the power must be switched on to give an indication of internal pressure in the system.
Setting the Output Pressure The generator will deliver Nitrogen at the rated flow up to a maximum pressure of 116psi, assuming an adequate air supply. The output pressure can be adjusted using the regulator at the front of the generator and viewed on the adjacent gauge. To access the regulator, unclip the fascia from the unit.
