General Function The CLEARPOINT® V activated carbon towers use a single pressure vessel, filled with an adsorption material (⅛” activated carbon as standard) to remove oil aerosol and oil vapor from the compressed air system. As the compressed air flows across the activated carbon, oil aerosol and oil vapor adsorb onto the surface and pores thus removing it.
INSTALLATION Design and Use of the Activated Carbon Tower The CLEARPOINT® V activated carbon tower has been designed, manufactured and tested to be used only to separate oil aerosol and oil vapor contained in compressed air, any other use is considered to be improper. The manufacturer is not responsible for any problems arising from the improper use of this machine.
NOTE: All piping connections should be inspected prior to installation to ensure they have maintained their integrity during shipping and locating the dryer. First, make the initial connections as follows: 1. Coalescing Pre-filter 2. Inlet piping including an isolation valve 3.
