A-4000 Series Oil Removal and Pressure Reducing
Stations & Air Compressor Accessories
Oil Removal and
Pressure Reducing
Stations
The A-4000 Series Oil Removal
and Pressure Reducing Stations
(see Figs. 1 through 4) are
available in single or dual PRV
models in 10 or 20 SCFM (4.7 or
9.4 L/s) maximum flow
capacities. In addition, each unit
features a four-way bypass
valve, coalescing and activated
charcoal oil removing filters, and
is completely piped with copper
tubing which reduces friction,
allows higher flow rates, and
meets fire codes in mechanical
equipment rooms. The filter
combination removes both oil
aerosols and vapors to provide
clean, oil free air for pneumatic
control systems. All models
provide maximum performance
for a period of one year at which
time the coalescing and
activated charcoal filter elements
will need to be replaced.
Gauges are provided to monitor
system operations and
performance. All models can
provide filtered, high pressure air
to remote PRV stations. All
models have a maximum input
pressure rating of 150 PSIG
(1050 kPa) and an upper
temperature limit of
120°F (52°C). Note: The air
supply to these stations must
be from a properly broken in
air compressor producing less
than 6 ppm aerosol oil (as
measured by a Johnson
Controls A-4000-120 Oil
Indicator on the compressor
tank outlet) and must also
pass through a properly
operating air dryer.
