MODULAIR MEDIUM
InstructIon manual
The air filter removes impurities from the airstream two ways: dynamically by
centrifugal force, by which the deflector throws out heavier particles and entrained
water; and statically through the filter element itself, which filters out solid particles.
The filter provides enough filtration for most pneumatic applications; however, in
situations where water and/or oil aerosols must also be filtered out, a coalescing
filter should also be installed.

INSTALLATION
Install units in pipeline so that flow is with the arrows as indicated on faces of body. Install as
near as possible to equipment serviced.
COMBINATION UNIT ASSEMBLY
To assemble units in combination, use required adapters (see TOPRING catalogue for details).
Liberally apply grease to the O-ring and insert into the O-ring groove on the filter "outlet" face
or the lubricator "inlet" face. Regulator may be mounted in either up or down position but
not sideways. Insert assembly screws through slots in the body of filter or lubricator and into
tapped holes on regulator mounting face. Position parts with mounting slots aligned and tighten
screws slightly more than hand tight. Units are easily disassembled in reverse order of above
procedure. End plates and diverter block may be assembled in the same manner as described
above with the O-ring in the appropriate groove and the screws through the slots.
To avoid unpredicTable sysTem behaviour ThaT can cause personal injury and properTy damage:
• Disconnect electrical supply (when necessary) before installation, servicing or conversion.
• Disconnect media source and depressurize all media lines connected to this product before installation, servicing,
or conversion.
• Operate within the manufacturer' s specified pressure, temperature and other conditions listed in these instructions.
• Medium must be moisture-free if ambient temperature is below freezing.
• Service according to procedures listed in these instructions.
• Installation, service, and conversion of these products must be performed by knowledgeable personnel who
understand how pneumatic products are to be applied.
• After installation, servicing, or conversion, media and electrical supplies (when necessary) should be connected
and the product tested for proper function and leakage. If audibleleakage is present, or the product does not operate
properly, do not put into use.
• Warnings and specifications on the product should not be covered by paint, etc. If masking is not possible,
contact TOPRING for replacement labels.
MAINTENANCE
To maintain maximum filtering efficiency and to avoid excessive pressure drop, the filter bowl and element
must be kept clean. On standard filters, open drain cock (turn counter clockwise) periodically and drain off
any bowl accumulation before it reaches level of lower baffle. Bowl drainage is automatic in the "Automatic
Drain" model, however, manual draining can also be done by removing the bowl. A visible coating of dirt or
condensate on the filter element or an excessive pressure drop indicates cleaning is necessary.
CLEANING
To clean, it is not necessary to remove filter from the line, disassembly is simple and does not require tools
(use the drawing below as a guide). Before disassembly, shut off air supply and depressurize filter. Clean
all parts except plastic bowl with alcohol and blow out filter body before reassembly. Wash filter element in
alcohol and blow out from the inside. Plastic bowls must be cleaned with household soap only.
Polyurethane bowls, sight glass and sight domes on these units may be attacked by certain chemicals.
Never use solvents like carbon tetrachloride, trichlorethylene, acetone, or paint thinner to clean any parts.
These elements can cause crazing or failure of the plastic parts. The polyurethane resin parts are
compatible with most hydrocarbon based synthetic lubricants but, before using, check with the
manufacturer of the lubricant or oil for compatibility with polyurethane resin.
TO CLEAN POLYURETHANE BOWLS USE MILD SOAP AND WATER ONLY!
