Page 19: Start-Up
EN | User Manual Start-up Start-up Hazard due to a sudden release of pressure! Never remove any parts of the adsorber, or manipulate the same in any way, for as long as the plant is still pressurised! A sudden escape of pressure may cause serious injuries. -
Page 20: Overview Of Operating And Control Elements
EN | User Manual Start-up Overview of operating and control elements Oil indicator The adsorber is equipped with an oil indicator. The indicator allows for periodic measuring of the residual oil concentration in the purifi ed compressed air. The residual oil content should only be measured at set intervals, and the needle valve (1) at the indicator should be closed during normal operation. - Page 21 EN | User Manual Start-up Slowly open the compressed air inlet valve, installed by the owner, upstream of the adsor- ber. Open compressed air outlet line Slowly open compressed air outlet valve! Avoid sudden pressure build-up in any circumstance! If pressure builds up too fast, this may cause damage to the adsorber.
