INSTALLING DESICCANT CARTRIDGES & MUFFLERS
After base assembly is mounted, install desiccant cartridges to base assembly as follows:
1. Install o-ring into groove of each center thread adaptor in base assembly.
2. Lubricate both o-rings and threads.
3. Lubricate contact surface of flat gasket located in cartridge plate.
4. Start cartridge onto thread adaptor, being careful not to cross thread. Turn cartridge
clockwise until flat gasket contacts casting surface. After gasket contact turn
cartridge only ½ additional turn.
NOTE: Do not over-tighten cartridge or future removal will be difficult.
5. Apply ant-seize compound to muffler threads & install a muffler into each exhaust
port of the DA Series.
MICRO LOGIC TIMER (MLT) ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
1. Plug-in MLT power cord to 110-120 Volt AC grounded receptacle.
NOTE: The MLT device is polarity sensitive. MLT will not operate if power (+) and
neutral (-) leads are switched.
START-UP/CHECK
1. Ensure that all air lines fittings are properly connected.
2. Pressurize system.
3. Check air line fittings for leaks and repair leaks.
4. Observe operation of the DA Series for proper function as described in the DA
Series OPERATION/CYCLE section
DA Series OPERATION/CYCLE
1. The Micro Logic Timer (MLT) controls drying and regeneration cycles of the DA
Series by energizing and de-energizing the “air control valve” of the DA Series at
120-second intervals. An indicator light on MLT will be on during energized cycle
and off during the de-energized cycle.
2. The DA Series “air control valve” controls air-flow direction through the DA Series.
During operation one desiccant cartridge is drying air and other cartridge is being
regenerated.
3. During operation there will be a light flow of air from ONE exhaust port of each DA
Series unit. This is normal, regeneration , air flow and the air flow will alternate
(every 120 seconds) from one exhaust port to the other in conjunction with the MLT
cycles. When the DA Series cycle alternates there will be a momentary burst of air
from one of the exhaust ports. This is normal and is beginning of regeneration
process.
