Connecting to the power supply The prerequisite for the correct installation is the presence of a professionally-planned, installed and maintained compressed air network and an additional shut-off valve installed at the entrance to the compressed air network. Relief valves are to be placed ahead of any potential blockage point, including but not limited to shut-off valves, heat exchangers and discharge silencers.
