Instruction book Safety precautions Safety icons Explanation Danger for life Warning Important note Safety precautions, general General precautions All responsibility for any damage or injury resulting from neglecting these precautions, or non-observance of the normal caution and care required for installation, operation, maintenance and repair, even if not expressly stated, will be disclaimed by the manufacturer.
Instruction book Safety precautions during installation Precautions during installation 1. The dryer must only be lifted using suitable equipment and in accordance with the applicable safety regulations. Loose or pivoting parts must be securely fastened before lifting. It is strictly forbidden to dwell or stay in the risk zone under a lifted load.
Instruction book Also consult following safety precautions: Safety precautions during operation Safety precautions during maintenance or repair. These precautions apply to machinery processing or consuming air or inert gas. Processing of any other gas requires additional safety precautions typical to the application which are not included herein.

Instruction book • Always wear special gloves. In case of refrigerant contact with the skin, rinse the skin with water. If liquid refrigerant contacts the skin through clothing, never tear off or remove the latter; flush abundantly with fresh water over the clothing until all refrigerant is flushed away; then seek medical first aid.
Instruction book General description General description Introduction The air dryers described in this book are heatless adsorption dryers, built to remove moisture from compressed air for industrial purposes. The standard version is intended to reach a pressure dew point of -40 ˚C (-40 ˚F). There is also a version available for a pressure dew point of -70˚C (-94 ˚F).
Instruction book Reference Description Reference Description Tower A Solenoid valve Tower B Control cubicle Air inlet Silencers Air outlet Operation General The construction of the air dryer is simple, reliable and easy to service. A dryer has basically two towers, containing the adsorption material or desiccant.

Instruction book However, in case the input of remote control connector X3 (old denomination: P4 - freeze contact, see section Electric diagram) opens (by the freeze contact), the dryer will "freeze" the drying cycle: purge air flow stops, both solenoid valves are closed. When the contact, connected to connector X3 closes, the dryer will switch towers and will continue normal operation.

Never overload the dryer as this will damage the desiccant. It may be recommended to install the air dryer upstream of the air receiver to prevent overload (e.g. after extending the dry air circuit). Consult Atlas Copco if in doubt. 2920 7092 40...
Instruction book Electrical connections General The electrical wiring must comply with the local regulations. The air dryer must be earthed and protected by fuses against short-circuiting. Consult the electric diagram delivered with the dryer. Before switching on the main power supply, check the voltage requirements in the technical specifications or on the dryer’s data plate.
Instruction book • For 24 V AC: connect the supply cable to terminals 2 and 3 (only applicable to timer card 1900 0713 07 (cubicle 1900 5002 01)): • X3 (freeze contact - P4) If you want to use the feature to “freeze” the regeneration cycle when the compressor runs unloaded, connect pin 1 and 2 of connector X3 with the potential free contact of the compressor (contact closed = freeze).

Instruction book Operating instructions In your own safety interest, always observe all relevant safety instructions. Initial start-up To start up the dryer for the first time or after a long period of standstill, proceed as follows: 1. If installed, open the bypass valves of the dryer. 2.
Instruction book Close the external inlet valve in case the compressor needs to be restarted. The air speed in the start-up phase of the compressor may damage the desiccant. During operation At regular intervals, check the status of the LED’s on the control panel. If the warning/alarm LED is alight, consult the section Trouble shooting.
• Disconnect all pressure sources and vent the internal pressure of the system before dismantling any pressurized component. • Use genuine Atlas Copco spare parts only. Consult the Spare Parts List for part numbers. For preventive maintenance, dedicated Service kits are available.
Instruction book Resetting the service counter Timer card resetting procedure To reset the timer card, continue as follows: • Close off the dryer as described in the stopping procedure, see section Operating instructions. • Switch off the dryer by putting switch S1 to ‘Off’ position. LED (2, Dryer operating) will extinguish. Perform the service plan as scheduled.
Dismantle the bottom, remove the nipple off. and detach the shuttle. LED Service warning/ Both LED’s are timer-controlled and Contact Atlas Copco for maintenance. Service alarm is alight. will light up after a certain time Reset the timer after maintenance. (orange LED (warning) after 7750 hours, red LED (alarm) after 8000 hours).
