Safety instructions Warning! Refrigerant leak! A refrigerant leak involves the danger of serious injury and damage to the environment. The compressed-air refrigeration dryer contains fluorinated greenhouse gas/refrigerant. Installation, repair and maintenance works at the refrigeration system must only be carried out by certified skilled personnel (specialists).

Safety instructions Note! Contaminated intake air! In normal condition (comply with ISO 8573.1 class 2.-3) we recommend the installation of C-Filters (e. g. CLEARPOINT S040CWT) upstream to the dryer. In case the intake air is strongly contaminated (ISO 8573.1 class 5.-4 or poorer quality), we recommend the installation of a fine filter (e.g.

Transport ische Dokumentation/Überschriften/1/Bestimmungsgemäße Verwendung @ 0\mod_1183637706293_6.doc @ 5383 Transport Check the packaging for visible loss or damage. If no visible damage can be ascertained, place the unit in close proximity to the place of installation and unpack the device. During this procedure, the dryer must always remain in an upright position. The components may be damaged when the unit is tilted or turned upside down.
Installation Installation Place of installation Note! Ambient conditions! In the event that the dryer is not installed under suitable ambient conditions, the ability of the device to condense refrigerant gas is impaired. This can result in a higher load of the refrigerating compressor, and in a loss of efficiency and performance of the dryer.
Installation Installation layout - A - Air compressor Aftercooler Condensate separator Pre-Filter By-pass group Dryer Compressed air tank Final filter - B - Condensate drain Dryer’s compressor and fan (air cooled) speed are adjusted to adapt power consumption to the dryer load. Although system is quite reactive, it cannot adapt its setting immediately to sudden load variation leading to dewpoint spikes/fluctuations.
Installation Connection to the compressed air system Danger! Compressed air! All works must only be carried out by qualified skilled personnel. Never work on compressed-air systems which are under pressure. The operator or the user must ensure that the dryer is never operated with a pressure exceeding the maximum pressure value indicated on the name plate.
Installation Connection to the cooling water network (Water-Cooled) DANGER! Compressed air and unqualified personnel! All works must only be carried out by qualified skilled personnel. Never work on compressed-air systems which are under pressure. The user must ensure that the dryer is never operated with a pressure exceeding the nominal values. Possible overpressure can be dangerous for the operator but also for the device.
Installation Electrical connections Danger! Supply voltage! The connection to the electric mains should only be carried out by qualified skilled personnel and must correspond to the legal provisions in force in your region. Before connecting the unit to the electrical supply, verify the data nameplate for the proper electrical information. Voltage tolerance is +/- 10%.
Start-up Condensate drain Danger! Compressed air and condensate under pressure! The condensate is discharged at system pressure. The drain pipe needs to be secured. Never direct the condensate drain pipe at persons. The dryer comes already fitted with an electronic condensate drainer. Connect and properly fasten the condensate drain to a collecting plant or container.
Start-up First start-up Note! The number of starts/stops by pressing the button must be limited to six per hour. Irreparable damage can be caused by starting up the device too often. The method below should be applied during the first start-up, after longer downtimes or subsequent to maintenance works.
Start-up Start-up and shut down During short-term shut down (max. two to three days), it is advisable to leave the dryer and the control panel connected to the supply current circuit. Otherwise, it would be necessary at a restart of the dryer to wait two hours, until the oil in the compressor has reached the specified operating temperature.
Technical description 11 Technical description 11.1 Control panel The control panel illustrated below is the only dryer-operator interface. 1 - Main switch 2 - Electronic controller DMC55 11.2 Operation Operating principle - The dryer models described in this manual operate all on the same principle. The hot moisture laden air enters an air to air heat exchanger.
Technical description 11.5 Refrigerating compressor The refrigerating compressor is the pump in the system, gas coming from the evaporator (low pressure side) is compressed up to the condensation pressure (high pressure side). lt is used a scroll fully hermetic compressor encapsulated with a BLDC (Brush Less Direct Current) motor which is the latest and most efficient technology available for this application.
Technical description 11.9 Filter dryer Traces of humidity and slag can accumulate inside the refrigerant circuit. Long periods of use can also produce sludge. This can limit the lubrication efficiency of the compressor and clog the expansion valve. The function of the filter drier, located before the expansion valve, is to eliminate any impurities from circulating through the system.
Technical description 11.15 DMC55 electronic control unit The DMC55 electronic control unit is a device which controls the dryer's functional processes, provides a dialogue interface for the operator, and consists of a power module within the control panel and a touch screen module positioned on the front panel of the dryer.
