Automatic Drain Valve Adjustments
The automatic drain valve supplied is standard
on the separator and should open regularly and
discharge any accumulated water into the drain
line. The period between openings varies with the
dryer and operating conditions (electronic type). To
minimize air losses, the timer should be adjusted
to open the drain solenoid just long enough to
dischargetheaccumulatedcondensate.Setthe
timer so that only air discharges at the end of the
openperiod.Recommendedinitialsettingsare(7)
seconds drain opening (on time) and a (7) minute
close time (off time). If air discharges far more than
(2) seconds from the separator discharge, set the
timer for a longer cycle time. If liquid discharges as
the solenoid is closing, set the timer for a shorter
cycle or a longer open time.
Operating Procedure
After the initial startup, the dryer operation is
completely automatic. To understand the details of
the operation, use the flow diagram on pages 7-8
and the timing sequence of the dryer.
Air Cooled Condenser Requirements
Cooling air must be drawn from a clean source to
reduce dust and dirt accumulation on the condenser
coils.Airtemperatureshouldnotexceed100°F
(38°C).
