  • Page 8 Instruction Book The condensate enters the Electronic Water Drain (EWD) via inlet (1) and accumulates in collector (6). A capacitive sensor (5) continuously measures the liquid level. A drain delay timer is started when the collector is filled up to a certain level. As soon as the delay time has expired, pilot valve (3) is activated and diaphragm (4) opens outlet (8), discharging the condensate.

  • Page 11: Installation

    Instruction Book Installation QMF filters Install a QMF filter in the compressed air system as a general-purpose filter. QMF filters are provided with a gauge indicating the pressure drop over the filter. An optional voltage- free switch which closes at a pressure drop of 6 psi (0.4 bar) is available. This switch can be used as warning.
  • Page 12 Instruction Book For new installations as well as for installations that have to be made up to date, the ISO 8573-1 norm can be used. This describes several quality classes and, depending on these classes and applications, some proposals are given fulfilling this norm. This norm only concerns compressed air for general use and does not deal with, or is not applicable to, e.g.
  • Page 13 Instruction Book If space before or after the mounted filter is limited, please choose the area indicated with Minimum. The Minimum area allows filter element change in two steps by rotating the bottom of the filter housing clockwise and counter clockwise. If enough space is available please consider the Ideal area to enable free rotation of the filter housing bottom to allow replacement of all filter elements at once.
