compressed-air system.
 When connecting the compressor outlet to the customer's existing compressed-air system,
check that the necessary operating temperatures, operating pressures as well as the
necessary connecting flange or connecting thread are appropriate and in perfect working


dangerously.
After-coolers, separators, collecting reservoirs and the compressed-air lines must be equipped with
drain facilities at their lowest points to drain collected liquids. These facilities have to be fitted to allow
the observance of the draining of such liquids.
Hand-operated drain facilities have to be actuated in accordance with the operating instructions.
Automatic drain facilities have to be checked for proper function at regular intervals. When draining
condensates into a collecting line, which also collects the condensate from other machines, make sure
that the collecting line is free from back pressure at all lines.
When draining condensate, observe the corresponding regulations for waste water disposal.
