User Manual US-EN SR 10-480 AC pressure. The liquid is pressed through a capillary tube where the resulting pressure drop ensures that the refrigerant evaporates at a defined temperature. The liquid refrigerant which is under low pressure is led into the heat exchanger, where it expands. The cold resulting from the expansion serves to cool down the compressed air in the heat exchanger. During this process, the refrigerant evaporates.

User Manual US-EN SR 10-480 AC These Sullimax condensate drains were designed in particular for the operation in a SR refrigeration dryer. The installation in other compressed-air processing systems or the replacement with another drain brand can lead to malfunction. The maximum operating pressure (see name plate) must not be exceeded! Ensure that the upstream valve is open when the dryer starts operation.
User Manual US-EN SR 10-480 AC Only qualified and skilled personnel are authorised to run electrically-operated devices. Prior to undertaking maintenance measures at the device, the following requirements must be met: Make sure that the power supply is switched off and that the device is off and marked for maintenance measures. Please also ensure that the power supply cannot be re-established during the works.
User Manual US-EN SR 10-480 AC DAILY: • Check whether the dew point indicated on the electronics is correct. • Ensure that the condensate drain system functions properly. • Make sure that the condenser is clean. EVERY 200 HOURS OR MONTHLY • Clean the condenser using an air jet (max. 2 bar / 30 psig) inside out. Make sure not to damage the aluminium lamellae of the cooling package. • Finally, verify the operation of the device.
User Manual US-EN SR 10-480 AC 12.2 Troubleshooting Certified skilled personnel Installation works must exclusively be carried out by authorised and qualified skilled personnel. Prior to undertaking any measures on the SR 10-480 AC compressed-air refrigeration dryer, the certified skilled personnel shall read up on the device by carefully studying the operating instructions. The operator is responsible for the adherence to these provisions.
User Manual US-EN SR 10-480 AC All components concerned are installed inside of the closed housing. The housing must only be opened by certified skilled personnel. Some components can reach high temperatures during operation. Avoid any contact until the system or the component has cooled down. POSSIBLE REASON – SUGGESTED MEASURE FAULT The dryer does not start. Check whether or not the dryer is connected with the electric mains. Check the electric cabling.
User Manual US-EN SR 10-480 AC The dryer does not discharge the condensate – see the corresponding point. The hot-gas bypass valve needs to be re-adjusted – contact a SULLAIR service technician to have the nominal setting re-established. There is a leak in the refrigeration cycle – contact a SULLAIR service technician. Dew point too low.
User Manual US-EN SR 10-480 AC The condensate drain service valve is closed - open it. The dryer does not drain the condensate. Condensate strainer is clogged – remove and clean it. The drain solenoid valve is jammed – remove and clean it. Verify the electric wiring. The coil of the drain solenoid valve is failed – replace it. Electronic instrument is faulty – repace it. The DewPoint is too low - the condensate is frost and blocks the air - see specific point.
User Manual US-EN If installed: the TS safety temperature switch was triggered. SR 10-480 AC Check which of the following reasons is responsible for the triggering: Excess thermal load – re-establish the standard operating conditions. The inlet air is too hot – re-establish the nominal conditions. The ambient temperature is too high or the room ventilation insufficient – ensure sufficient ventilation. The condenser unit is dirty – please clean it. The fan does not work – see the corresponding point.

User Manual US-EN SR 10-480 AC 12.4 Maintenance works at the refrigeration cycle Caution! Refrigerant! Maintenance and repair works at refrigeration systems must only be carried out by SULLAIR service technicians in accordance with the local provisions. The total amount of refrigerant in the system must be collected for recycling purposes, resource recovery or disposal. The refrigerant must not be discharged into the environment.
User Manual US-EN SR 10-480 AC Electric cable Copper, PVC Electric parts PVC, copper, brass We recommend observing the safety provisions in force for the disposal of each material type. The refrigerant contains lubricating-oil droplets which are released by the compressor. The refrigerant must not be discharged into the environment. It must to be sucked off from the dryer using a suitable device, and then needs to be supplied to a collection point. 02250246-045 R02 45 Subject to EAR.
