  • Page 6: Safety Precautions

    Instruction book Safety precautions Safety icons Explanation Danger to life Warning Important note Safety precautions during installation 1. Install the equipment where the ambient air is cool and as clean as possible. Consult section Reference conditions and limitations. 2. During installation or any other intervention on the equipment or one of the connected machines, the machines must be stopped, de-energized and the isolating switch opened and locked before any maintenance or repair.

    Instruction book Automatic float drain The manual drain can be used to manually discharge dust or liquid from the filter bowl. Manual drain valve Options Filter connection kit This kit allows to interconnect the filter heads if two or more filters are installed in series. Always observe the correct air flow direction.
  • Page 13 Instruction book Voltage-free contact A voltage-free switch, mounted in the differential pressure gauge, closes at a pressure drop of 0.35 bar (5 psi) and can be used for remote control or alarm purposes. Electronic drain 2920 7194 90...
  • Page 14 Instruction book The electronic drain is a zero loss, electronically operated drain valve, specially designed to drain oil condensate. A sensor senses the condensate level. If this level exceeds a preset value, the drain waits for a fixed programmed time, then a solenoid valve is activated and the condensate is discharged.
  • Page 15: Installation

    Instruction book Installation General remarks When installing the filter, keep in mind the following: • Be sure that the piping is internally clean, especially downstream of the filter. • Select the filter grade in line with the application requirements. When selecting the filter size, take care that the maximum flow capacity is not exceeded to make sure that filtration performance and filter lifetime are guaranteed.
  • Page 16: Specific Remarks

    Instruction book • Open and close isolating valves slowly, as a sudden pressure rise or pressure drop can cause irreversible damage to the filter element. Specific remarks P filter The P grade filter can be used in installations where high oil or dust loads are expected. In critical applications it is recommended to install a grade G (for oil) or a grade S (for dust) or a grade C (for oil) or a grade D (for dust) filter downstream the P filter to improve the air quality.

    Instruction book S filter and D filter When the S and D filters are used with an adsorption type air dryer, install the filter downstream of the dryer. V filter To protect the activated carbon element, a V filter must always be preceded by a G and C filter. The filter should be mounted as close as possible to the point of use of the air.

  • Page 20: Maintenance

    Instruction book Maintenance Maintenance When maintaining the filter, keep in mind the following: • On filters with manual drain valve, open the latter at regular intervals to evacuate collected dust or liquid. • In case an automatic drain valve or a solenoid timer drain is installed, manual draining can be carried out by opening the valve counterclockwise to release collected condensate.

    Instruction book 6. Remove the drain valve by unscrewing the retaining nut underneath the bowl. 7. Remove the O-ring from the filter head and clean the o-ring groove. Position a new O-ring in the filter head. 8. Reinstall the drain valve in the bowl using the retaining nut (tightening torque 3 Nm). 9.
  • Page 22 Instruction book Note that the indicator or gauge will not move into the red area but will stay yellow or orange during operation. The filter elements of dust filters (S, D) should be replaced after 8000 running hours or after 12 months (whichever comes first).
