COMPRESSED AIR LINE SIZES

Compressed air lines should be sized to hold pressure drops to a minimum. When installing supply lines, use 1/4" pipe
up to 25' (7.6m) long, 3/8" up to 50' (15.2m) long. Compressed air hose (not included) should be 3/8" I.D. up to 25'
(7.6m). Do not use restrictive fittings such as quick connects that can "starve" the High Lift Reversible Drum Vac by
causing excessive line pressure drop.

COMPRESSED AIR SUPPLY

The High Lift Reversible Drum Vac uses normal shop air supplies of up to 100 PSIG (6.9 BAR, 689 kPa). With proper
filtration and separation of dirt, moisture and oil from the compressed air supply, the Reversible Drum Vac will run for
years with no maintenance required. Maximum pressure is 120 PSIG (8.2 BAR, 0.82 MPa).
Use a 10 micron or smaller filter separator on the compressed air supply (Model 9001 Automatic Drain Filter Separator
not included). To prevent problems associated with oil, use an oil removal filter (Model 9006 Oil Removal Filter, not
included). The oil removal filter should be used downstream from the automatic drain filter separator. Filters should be
used close to the High Lift Reversible Drum Vac, within 10 to 15' (3 to 4.6m) is best.
If air preparation units other than EXAIR models are being used, please note the following:
 PRESSURE REGULATORS – Must be pressure relieving and rated for a supply pressure of 250 PSIG (17.2 BAR,
1.72 MPa). Suggested operating pressure is 5-125 PSIG (0.3-8.6 BAR, 34-862 kPa). Flow should be minimum 43
SCFM (1,218 SLPM).
 AUTO DRAIN FILTER SEPARATORS – Must be rated for a supply pressure of 250 PSIG (17.2 BAR, 1.72 MPa)
and have 5 micron filtration. Flow should be minimum 43 SCFM (1,218 SLPM).
 OIL REMOVAL FILTERS – Must be rated for a supply pressure of 250 PSIG (17.2 BAR, 1.72 MPa) and have
0.03 micron filtration. Flow should be minimum 43 SCFM (1,218 SLPM).
