Page 6: Installation
Installation, Operation and Maintenance Manual Bulletin TI-LCMS-SF5000J Super Flow Tri-Gas Generators Hydrocarbon Removal The tower module is a stainless steel vessel filled with catalyst, equipped with a cartridge heater. During operation, hydrocarbons are oxidized into carbon dioxide and water vapor. The catalyst bed is maintained at the required temperature for optimal oxidation by the heater’s temperature controller.
Page 7 Installation, Operation and Maintenance Manual Bulletin TI-LCMS-SF5000J Super Flow Tri-Gas Generators Figure 6 Figure 5 Location Location of the generator with proper ventilation is critical. Install the generator in a clean, well ven- tilated area. To provide adequate ventilation and servicing for the generator, a minimum clearance distance of 30 inches in front and in the rear is required.
Page 8 Installation, Operation and Maintenance Manual Bulletin TI-LCMS-SF5000J Super Flow Tri-Gas Generators The generator is for indoor use only. Do not install outdoors. The ambient temperature of the air surrounding the generator should not exceed 90°F (32°C). If the compressor is located in a totally enclosed room without ventilation, an exhaust fan with access to outside air must be installed.

Page 11: Operation
Installation, Operation and Maintenance Manual Bulletin TI-LCMS-SF5000J Super Flow Tri-Gas Generators Operation Start-up Check that the power cords of both the compressor and the two Tri-Gas Generators are connected to their proper power supply outlets. Check that the Tri-gas generators are not powered on (all LEDs are not lit).
Page 12 Installation, Operation and Maintenance Manual Bulletin TI-LCMS-SF5000J Super Flow Tri-Gas Generators Each cabinet has its own automatic water drain system. The compressor drain operates every 40 min- utes, opens for 2 seconds. In the Tri-gas generator, the two filter bowls drain every 5 minutes and the receiver tank drains every 30 minutes for less than one second.
Page 13: Power Interruption
Installation, Operation and Maintenance Manual Bulletin TI-LCMS-SF5000J Super Flow Tri-Gas Generators Pressure Interruption For Model LCMS-SF5000, If the compressed air pressure decreases less than 105 psig (7.2 barg), the yellow “Low Pressure” LED will illuminate and an audible alarm will sound (beeping every 2 seconds).
Page 14: Maintenance
Installation, Operation and Maintenance Manual Bulletin TI-LCMS-SF5000J Super Flow Tri-Gas Generators Maintenance Maintenance tasks for the Tri-Gas Generator should be performed by trained personnel familiar with the service and safety precautions of electromechanical devices to avoid injury or damage. Parker highly recommends service be performed by a Parker trained technician only. Call the factory about PMP, the Preventative Maintenance Program.
