1. GENERAL INFORMATION 1.1 FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION OMI refrigerated air dryers remove moisture from compressed air. Moisture is detrimental to pneumatically operated appliances, controls, instruments, machinery and tools. Compressed air enters the patented aluminum heat exchanger where it is cooled down to the dew point temperature in two different stages: In the first air/air sector compressed inlet air is cooled thanks to the colder compressed air coming out counterflow from the condensate separator.
2.1 ACCEPTANCE AND HANDLING Upon receiving your OMI air dryer, please inspect the unit closely. If rough handling is detected, please note it on your delivery receipt, especially if the dryer will not be uncrated immediately. Then obtain the freight carrier's signed agreement to any noted damages: this is a precondition for any insurance claims by the customer.
