OPERATOR TRAINING. All personnel must be trained before operating finishing equipment.

KNOW WHERE AND HOW TO SHUT OFF THE EQUIPMENT IN CASE OF AN EMERGENCY.

PROJECTILE HAZARD. You may be injured by venting liquids or gases that are released under pressure, or flying debris.

EQUIPMENT MISUSE HAZARD. Equipment misuse can cause the equipment to rupture, malfunction or start unexpectedly and result in serious injury.

PRESSURE RELIEF PROCEDURE. Always follow the pressure relief procedure in the equipment instruction manual.

INSTALLATION

1. Do not install the unit above electrical or any other equipment that could be damaged by discharged condensate oil.
2. Ensure air flows through the unit in the direction of the arrows on the body.
3. Install the unit as near as possible to the point of use.
4. An isolation valve is fitted (8) to the inlet of the PRO AIR 2 & 3 for convenience when maintaining and to release condensate and oil from bowl. (see operation) Slide to the right towards the regulator to open. Slide to the left to close.
5. The unit should be mounted in an upright position.
6. Ensure the regulator is correctly earthed using the marked wall bracket on the outlet side of the unit as the earthing point as shown below and verify continuity from each Ball Valve (6) to another known earth point. A resistance of less than 1 K ohms should be achieved for dissipation of electrostatic charge. PRO AIR-2 shown.
   

OPERATION

1. Do not exceed the maximum working pressures and temperatures.
2. When regulating the pressure always adjust from a lower pressure increasing to the desired pressure, rather than from a higher pressure down.
3. To lock the set pressure depress the knob which prevents it being adjusted. To release the lock lift the knob up.
4. The drain valve on the bottom of the filter and coalescer can be used manually or semi- automatically.
   1. Semi-Automatic - The valve push button is rotated to the left, in this mode when the air pressure is exhausted from the unit the push button opens under spring operation.
   2. Manually - The valve push button rotated to the right shuts off the drain permanently, until it is rotated to the left when it can be pushed up to drain even when the unit is pressurized.

MAINTENANCE

Always de-pressurise the whole unit prior to carrying out any maintenance work, ensuring no pressure is locked in the unit or items attached to it. The regulator knob should be wound fully counter clockwise to exhaust all pressure after isolating.

Ensure earthing of the unit is not affected by maintenance activities, see Installation.

Filter - To replace these items unscrew and remove bowl, unscrew the central bolt and pull the filter down.

Coalescer/ Activated carbon filter - To replace this item, unscrew and remove the bowl, then unscrew the filter element. Care should be taken when replacing the element not to cross the threads.

Gauge - When replacing this item, screw a new gauge in by hand only, do not use a spanner. Seal the thread using a liquid sealant, do not use PTFE tape.

Filter/ Coalescer/ Activated carbon filter periods for replacement
It is recommended that filter elements are replaced periodically i.e. when a drop in pressure is noticeable through the unit or every 6 months or 1000 hours use.

Do not use solvents or aggressive chemicals to clean the unit, which may affect the materials of construction.

Always use recommended and original parts and accessories.
