  • Page 3: Introduction

    Important The refrigerant available on the C series of Compressed Air Dryers is Refrigerant R134a or Refrigerant R407C. It is imperative that refrigerants are not mixed. A label is fixed to each compressor, which identifies the refrigerant being used within the unit, and that refrigerant ONLY should be used in the dryer. R134a & R407C are ozone benign refrigerants and meet the requirements of the revised “Montreal Protocol”.

  • Page 9: Installation - Electrical

    The C series Dryers require a 220/240 Volt 1 phase and neutral 50-60 Hz supply. A flying lead is installed on the dryer for convenience. The cable core colours are: Brown Live Blue Neutral Green / Yellow Earth If the unit is connected to a junction box, receiving its supply from another source (e.g., auxiliary contacts of a main starter, or a relay), then it is important that electrical protection is provided by means of a suitably rated H.R.C.

  • Page 26: Control Of Refrigerant Discharge

    Control of Refrigerant Discharge By international agreement, the worldwide use of certain refrigerants will be reduced in stages. To this end, listed below are suggestions on how refrigeration engineers can contribute by the discontinuing of releasing any refrigerant gas to the atmosphere. Release of refrigerant to the atmosphere is an offence under Section 33 of the Environmental Protection Act 1990.

    It is not normally necessary to open the refrigerant circuit. If a problem is suspected it is strongly recommended that unit maintenance or repair is undertaken by a CITY & GUILDS 2078 (or equivalent) COMPETENT REFRIGERATION ENGINEER. A City and Guilds 2078 (or equivalent) certificate will soon be mandatory. Daily ...
  • Page 28: Fault Finding

    Fault Finding The following fault finding chart relates various symptoms and faults of the refrigeration system. Before attempting to identify a refrigeration system fault it must first be established that the DESIGN CONDITIONS to the compressed air system are being met i.e. flow, pressure and temperature. Excessive overload will be caused by: Excessive compressed air inlet temperature.
  • Page 29 PROBLEM CAUSE Compressed air flow rate too high. Excessive drop in compressed Condensate is Frozen. air pressure. Exchanger Tubes soiled by impurities in the compressed air. The condensate has frozen and blocked the passage as Compressed the probe is incorrectly air does not positioned.
