9.5.3 Emptying the Water Trap
Moisture from the outside air can condense in the pneumatic system. The Water Trap collects this
condensed moisture. You must empty it monthly or whenever it is full.
WARNING! Do not remove the steel bowl guard protecting the Water Trap. The bowl is made
of polycarbonate plastic, which could rupture if the inside or outside of the bowl is
exposed to chemicals incompatible with polycarbonate.
To empty the Water Trap:
1. Locate the Water Trap (
Figure 9-2) at the rear of the system.
2. Disconnect the facility air supply from the Main Air Inlet.
3. Hold a container under the Water Trap to catch the water.
4. Using your finger, push the water drain knob at the bottom of the assembly.
5. Reconnect the facility air supply to the Main Air Inlet.
