Installation

1
Bolt the tank to the floor using the four 1/2
inch diameter mounting holes (A).
2
Connect your drive air supply to the 1
inch NPT inlet filter shown above (B). The air
supply piping should be 1 inch pipe diameter
or larger.
3
Connect your discharge line to the 2 inch
NPT pipe port shown above (C). There are
several other plugged ports on the tank that
can be used for the discharge line.
4
Attach your condensate drain line to the
1/4 NPT port on the valve shown above (D).
MPS
Make sure that your discharge piping
components are rated for 200 psi.

This system can be operated with one, two, or all three boosters. To operate with all
three boosters, open the inlet (E) and discharge valves (F). To operate with one booster,
D
close the inlet and discharge valves of the idle boosters.

There is a discharge pressure regulator for each booster. Pull up on the black
knob on the top of the booster to unlock it. Turn the knob clockwise for a higher
discharge pressure and counterclockwise for a lower pressure. If all of the boosters
are operating, set the regulators for the same discharge pressure. The regulators are
self relieving so if one is set for a higher pressure, the other regulators will try to vent
the pressure. The pressure gauges marked (G) indicate inlet pressure and the gauges
marked (H) indicate discharge pressure. When the boosters have pressurized the tank
to the maximum desired pressure, they will stall. If one of the regulators vents at the
stall condition, turn the knob clockwise until the venting stops. The maximum
recommended discharge pressure is 190 psi. The relief valve is set for 200 psi. If the
supply pressure is higher than 95 psi, it is possible to set the regulators so the system
exceeds the maximum discharge pressure of 190 psi. During startup, do not turn the
regulators to their highest setting, but slowly increase the regulator settings until the
desired pressure is reached.
The system is fully automatic. When the desired discharge pressure has been
reached, and no flow is required, the boosters will stop automatically. They will
restart when the pressure drops about 5 psi.
The air supply filters and condensate drain should be checked periodically. If a
booster needs to be removed for service, close the air supply valve and the discharge
valve. The discharge valve will vent the pressure between the two valves and the
booster pressure gauges should both read zero. The booster can safely be removed
and repaired while the system continues to operate.
