1. 9. 6. Air Supply & Filter System Connection
A 5-8 Bar (72.5-116psi) Compressed Air Source is required to operate the Air Bearing Motor of
the RSO Rheometer.
The supplied filter/dryer system is required for operation! Not using this system will result in
damage to your Air Bearing Motor!
1) Setting up the filter system and air supply:
a. Fill the Air Filtration Dryer Chamber with the supplied desiccant.
b. Connect an air supply to the Air Filtration inlet.
c. Connect supplied plastic tubing to RSO air input.
d. Turn on air supply and the set regulator to 5.5 bar / 80 psi.
All pipes, hoses, and fittings must have a rating of the maximum pressure of the compressor.
Compressed air pipelines should be identified (psi) as to maximum working pressure.
Air supply shutoff valves should be located (as near as possible) at the point-of-operation.
Hoses should not be strung across floors or aisles where they are liable to cause personnel to trip
and fall. When possible, air supply hoses should be suspended overhead, or otherwise located to
allow efficient access and protection against damage.
Hose ends must be secured to prevent whipping if an accidental cut or break occurs.
Air lines should be inspected frequently for defects, and any defective equipment repaired or
replaced immediately.
