5.3 Start-up and shut down
For short periods of inactivity, (max 2-3 days) we recommend that power is maintained to
the dryer and the control panel. Otherwise, before re-starting the dryer, it is necessary to
wait at least 2 hours for the compressor crankcase heater to heat the oil of the compressor.
Start-up (refer to paragraph 7.1 Control Panel)
 Check the condenser for cleanliness (Air-Cooled).
 Ensure the cooling water flow and temperature is adequate (Water-Cooled).
 The electronic instrument DMC24 shows
.
 Press key
for at least 2 seconds to start the dryer: if the compressor has been shut down for enough
time, it will start up immediately; otherwise the display will show the countdown of the seconds before the
compressor starts up again, and the led
flashes (max delay 5 minutes).
 Wait few minutes; verify that the DewPoint temperature displayed on electronic instrument is correct and
that the condensate is regularly drained.
 Switch on the air compressor.
Shut down (refer to paragraph 7.1 Control Panel)
 Check that the DewPoint temperature indicated on the electronic instrument is within range.
 Shut down the air compressor.
 After few minutes, shut down the dryer keeping the
button on DMC24 pressed for at least 2 seconds.

Dryer remote control ON-OFF
 See instructions on paragraph 7.15.7
Use dry contacts only (potential free) suitable for low voltage. Assure an adequate
isolation of potentially dangerous powered parts.
CAUTION :
AUTO-RESTART / REMOTE ON-OFF.
THE DRYER MAY POWER UP WITHOUT BEING ACTED UPON.
THE USER WILL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE INSTALLATION OF PROPER PROTECTIONS
FOR POSSIBLE SUDDEN POWER RESTORATION TO THE DRYER.
NOTE : A DewPoint within 32°F (0°C) and +50°F (+10°C) displayed on electronic instrument is correct
according to the possible working conditions (flow-rate, temperature of the incoming air, ambient
temperature, etc.).
During the operation, the refrigerant compressor will run continuously. The dryer must remain on during the
full usage period of the compressed air, even if the air compressor works intermittently.
The number of starts must be no more than 6 per hour.
The dryer must stop running for at least 5 minutes before being started up again.
Frequent starts may cause irreparable damage.
The user is responsible for compliance with these rules.
The DMC24 is fitted with internal protections to prevent the dryer from starting up too frequently.
