    AIR DRYER INSTRUCTION MANUAL GENERAL SAFETY INFORMATION Safety This manual contains very important information on SAFETY and how to PREVENT EQUIPMENT PROBLEMS. The following will help in understanding this information: DANGER INDICATES AN IMMINENTLY HAZARDOUS SITUATION WHICH, IF NOT AVOIDED, WILL RESULT IN DEATH OR SERIOUS INJURY.
  • Page 5: Read Prior To Starting This Equipment

    AIR DRYER INSTRUCTION MANUAL READ PRIOR TO STARTING THIS EQUIPMENT 1. This equipment has been thoroughly checked, packed and inspected before leaving our plant. 2. This equipment is shipped to accommodate a forklift truck. Use a forklift when moving and installing this equipment. Never lift it by hooking on to the air inlet and outlet connections.
  • Page 6 AIR DRYER INSTRUCTION MANUAL Working Flow Compressed air, saturated with water vapor, enters the dryer and is pre-cooled by the outgoing refrigerated air in an air-to-air heat exchanger (pre-cooler). In the pre-cooler, the warm incoming air is pre- cooled and the outgoing refrigerated air is warmed, this reduces the amount of heat that will have to be removed later by the refrigeration system, providing a more energy efficient dryer.
  • Page 7: Installation

    AIR DRYER INSTRUCTION MANUAL INSTALLATION Mounting 1. A dry, well-ventilated area is the best location for installation of the dryer. It also should be in an area where the ambient temperature will not exceed 100°F (38°C) or fall below 34°F (1°C).
  • Page 8 AIR DRYER INSTRUCTION MANUAL Typical Piping connection Three-valve bypass line should be installed before the dryer air inlet valve and after the dryer air outlet valve. This valve always permits the continued use of the plant compressed air system during any dryer maintenance or servicing operations.
  • Page 9: Operation

    AIR DRYER INSTRUCTION MANUAL OPERATION Preparation for start-up 1. Be sure that voltage to unit, air inlet pressure, air inlet temperature, air flow is as marked on unit serial number tag. 2. Blow off the compressed air lines for a few minutes to remove welding slag.
  • Page 10 AIR DRYER INSTRUCTION MANUAL During Operation The current models use R134A refrigerant. Units with refrigeration dew-point gauges (models below 400 CFM), make sure reading is in the yellow and green area. If unit has a PLC (models 400 CFM & above), make sure the display shows 37 F (3 C ).
  • Page 11: Maintenance

    AIR DRYER INSTRUCTION MANUAL MAINTENANCE To avoid shock and serious personal injury, disconnect, tag and lock out power source then release all pressure from the system before attempting to install, service, relocate or perform ANY maintenance or troubleshooting. Air-cooled condenser Ambient air should be free to flow across the refrigeration condenser for heat exchanging.

    AIR DRYER INSTRUCTION MANUAL WIRING DIAGRAMS All units are shipped with the wiring diagrams inside the units. The smaller units, the diagrams are attached to the inside of pull-off panel on the side of the electrical components. The diagrams for the larger units are on the inside of the electrical control box, which has to be removed with a Phillips-head screwdriver.
