AIR DRYER INSTRUCTION MANUAL

READ PRIOR TO STARTING THIS EQUIPMENT

1. This equipment has been thoroughly checked, packed and

inspected before leaving our plant.

2. This equipment is shipped to accommodate a forklift truck. Use a

forklift when moving and installing this equipment. Never lift it by

hooking on to the air inlet and outlet connections.

3. Clearances: Leave at least 24 inches or more (61 cm) on either

side of the cabinet for free air flow. Air-cooled units need

adequate, free-flowing ambient air to flow across the refrigeration

condenser, so do not block. The ambient temperature is to be

within the operating parameters of 34°F (1°C) to 100°F (38°C).

4. Refrigerant capacities are posted on the data plate, on the outside

of the unit.

DESCRIPTION

Function

Compressed air enters the air-to-air heat exchanger and is pre-

cooled by the chilled outgoing air of the compressor. The air then enters

the air-to-refrigerant heat exchanger where it is further cooled by the

refrigeration system. As the air is cooled, water vapor condenses into

water droplets. The air and water droplets then enter the separator where

water is removed. In addition, the air is filtered of all solid particles 0.01

micron and larger. Clean, dry compressed air leaving the dryer

minimizes maintenance and repair, and also reduces internal dryer

contamination.
