1.2 Safety precautions during installation
All responsibility for any damage or injury resulting from neglecting these
precautions, or non-observance of the normal caution and care required for
installation, operation, maintenance and repair, even if not expressly stated, will
be disclaimed by the manufacturer.
General precautions
1. The operator must employ safe working practices and observe all related work safety requirements and
regulations.
2. If any of the following statements does not comply with the applicable legislation, the stricter of the two
shall apply.
3. Installation, operation, maintenance and repair work must only be performed by authorised, trained,
specialised personnel.
4. The compressor is not considered capable of producing air of breathing quality. For air of breathing quality,
the compressed air must be adequately purified according to the applicable legislation and standards.
5. Before any maintenance, repair work, adjustment or any other non-routine checks, stop the compressor,
press the emergency stop button, switch off the voltage and depressurise the compressor. In addition, the
power isolating switch must be opened and locked.
6. Never play with compressed air. Do not apply the air to your skin or direct an air stream at people. Never
use the air to clean dirt from your clothes. When using the air to clean equipment, do so with extreme
caution and wear eye protection.
7. The owner is responsible for maintaining the unit in safe operating condition. Parts and accessories shall
be replaced if unsuitable for safe operation.
Precautions during installation

1. The machine must only be lifted using suitable equipment in accordance with the applicable safety
regulations. Loose or pivoting parts must be securely fastened before lifting. It is strictly forbidden to
6 2920 1727 00
Instruction book
dwell or stay in the risk zone under a lifted load. Lifting acceleration and deceleration must be kept within
safe limits. Wear a safety helmet when working in the area of overhead or lifting equipment.
2. Place the machine where the ambient air is as cool and clean as possible. If necessary, install a suction
duct. Never obstruct the air inlet. Care must be taken to minimise the entry of moisture at the inlet air.
3. Any blanking flanges, plugs, caps and desiccant bags must be removed before connecting the pipes.
4. Air hoses must be of correct size and suitable for the working pressure. Never use frayed, damaged or
worn hoses. Distribution pipes and connections must be of the correct size and suitable for the working
pressure.
5. The aspirated air must be free of flammable fumes, vapours and particles, e.g. paint solvents, that can lead
to internal fire or explosion.
6. Arrange the air intake so that loose clothing worn by people cannot be sucked in.
7. Ensure that the discharge pipe from the compressor to the aftercooler or air net is free to expand under
heat and that it is not in contact with or close to flammable materials.
8. No external force may be exerted on the air outlet valve; the connected pipe must be free of strain.
9. If remote control is installed, the machine must bear a clear sign stating: DANGER: This machine is
remotely controlled and may start without warning.
The operator has to make sure that the machine is stopped and that the isolating switch is open and locked
before any maintenance or repair. As a further safeguard, persons switching on remotely controlled
machines shall take adequate precautions to ensure that there is no one checking or working on the
machine. To this end, a suitable notice shall be affixed to the start equipment.
10. Air-cooled machines must be installed in such a way that an adequate flow of cooling air is available and
that the exhausted air does not recirculate to the compressor air inlet or cooling air inlet.
11. The electrical connections must correspond to the applicable codes. The machines must be earthed and
protected against short circuits by fuses in all phases. A lockable power isolating switch must be installed
near the compressor.
12. On machines with automatic start-stop system or if the automatic restart function after voltage failure is
activated, a sign stating "This machine may start without warning" must be affixed near the instrument
panel.
13. In multiple compressor systems, manual valves must be installed to isolate each compressor. Non-return
valves (check valves) must not be relied upon for isolating pressure systems.
14. Never remove or tamper with the safety devices, guards or insulation fitted on the machine. Every pressure
vessel or auxiliary installed outside the machine to contain air above atmospheric pressure must be
protected by a pressure-relieving device or devices as required.
15. Pipework or other parts with a temperature in excess of 80˚C (176˚F) and which may be accidentally
touched by personnel in normal operation must be guarded or insulated. Other high-temperature pipework
must be clearly marked.
16. For water-cooled machines, the cooling water system installed outside the machine has to be protected by
a safety device with set pressure according to the maximum cooling water inlet pressure.
17. If the ground is not level or can be subject to variable inclination, consult the manufacturer.
Also consult following safety precautions: Safety precautions during operation and Safety
precautions during maintenance.
These precautions apply to machinery processing or consuming air or inert gas. Processing
of any other gas requires additional safety precautions typical to the application which are not
included herein.
Some precautions are general and cover several machine types and equipment; hence some
statements may not apply to your machine.

Instruction book
7. Close the compressor air outlet valve before connecting or disconnecting a pipe.
8. Before removing any pressurized component, effectively isolate the machine from all sources of pressure
and relieve the entire system of pressure.
9. Never use flammable solvents or carbon tetrachloride for cleaning parts. Take safety precautions against
toxic vapours of cleaning liquids.
10. Scrupulously observe cleanliness during maintenance and repair. Keep dirt away by covering the parts
and exposed openings with a clean cloth, paper or tape.
11. Never weld or perform any operation involving heat near the oil system. Oil tanks must be completely
purged, e.g. by steam-cleaning, before carrying out such operations. Never weld on, or in any way modify,
pressure vessels.
12. Whenever there is an indication or any suspicion that an internal part of a machine is overheated, the
machine shall be stopped but no inspection covers shall be opened before sufficient cooling time has
elapsed; this to avoid the risk of spontaneous ignition of the oil vapour when air is admitted.
13. Never use a light source with open flame for inspecting the interior of a machine, pressure vessel, etc.
14. Make sure that no tools, loose parts or rags are left in or on the machine.
15. All regulating and safety devices shall be maintained with due care to ensure that they function properly.
They may not be put out of action.
16. Before clearing the machine for use after maintenance or overhaul, check that operating pressures,
temperatures and time settings are correct. Check that all control and shut-down devices are fitted and that
they function correctly. If removed, check that the coupling guard of the compressor drive shaft has been
reinstalled.
17. Every time the separator element is renewed, examine the discharge pipe and the inside of the oil separator
vessel for carbon deposits; if excessive, the deposits should be removed.
18. Protect the motor, air filter, electrical and regulating components, etc. to prevent moisture from entering
them, e.g. when steam-cleaning.
19. Make sure that all sound-damping material and vibration dampers, e.g. damping material on the bodywork
and in the air inlet and outlet systems of the compressor, is in good condition. If damaged, replace it by
genuine material from the manufacturer to prevent the sound pressure level from increasing.
20. Never use caustic solvents which can damage materials of the air net, e.g. polycarbonate bowls.
21. The following safety precautions are stressed when handling refrigerant:
• Never inhale refrigerant vapours. Check that the working area is adequately ventilated; if required, use
breathing protection.
• Always wear special gloves. In case of refrigerant contact with the skin, rinse the skin with water. If
liquid refrigerant contacts the skin through clothing, never tear off or remove the latter; flush
abundantly with fresh water over the clothing until all refrigerant is flushed away; then seek medical
first aid.
22. Protect hands to avoid injury from hot machine parts, e.g. during draining of oil.
Also consult following safety precautions: Safety precautions during installation and Safety
precautions during operation.

General view of water-cooled GA
Description of GA compressors
GA (W) are single-stage, oil-injected screw compressors, driven by an electric motor and enclosed in sound-
insulated bodywork.
GA are air-cooled compressors.
GA W are water-cooled compressors.
The following features are available as an option:
Full-Feature
A refrigerant dryer is fully integrated into the bodywork of the compressor. This All-in-one feature reduces
the required space for installation and provides savings on piping installation costs.
DD filter
The compressor is provided with an integrated filter of the DD type to limit carry-over of solid particles and
oil. By integrating a DD filter, the compressor delivers Quality Air according to ISO 8573-1, Class 2.4.2.
Electronic drain
The EWD (Electronic Water Drain) assures proper draining of condensate and prevents water from entering
the compressed air net. For any malfunction of the draining process, the EWD generates a warning message
on the display of the Elektronikon regulator.
12 2920 1727 00
Instruction book
Energy recovery
The compressor is provided with an Atlas Copco energy recovery system to recover the major part of the
compression heat in the form of hot water without any influence on the compressor performance.
Modulating control
The modulating control system is designed to maintain a narrow net pressure band by throttling the air inlet,
thus reducing the air flow (50% - 100%).
High ambient temperature (HAT)

The compressor is specially designed for continuous operation under humid and high ambient temperature
conditions. The maximum ambient temperature is 50 ˚C (122 ˚F).
Phase Sequence Relay

The phase sequence relay prevents the drive motor from rotating in the wrong direction.
PT 1000/100 Thermal motor protection

The PT1000 thermal protection provides protection for the drive motor. Five sensors are installed in the motor,
two to measure the temperature of the bearings and three to measure the temperature of the windings. The
readings can be called up on the display of the Elektronikon regulator. A message will appear on the display
and the general alarm LED will light up if one of the temperatures exceeds the shut-down warning setting.
Pipe connections
This compressor can be equipped with:
ISO connections.
NPT connections.
Roto-Xtend Duty Fluid

Roto-Xtend Duty Fluid is a special, long-life lubricant for GA oil-injected screw compressors. It provides
better cooling and extends the oil change interval.
SPM monitoring
A number of vibration sensors are provided on the drive motor and compressor elements. The readings can
be called up on the display of the Elektronikon regulator.
Separate air intake

This compressor is prepared to install separate ducting for cooling air flow and compressed air flow.
Anchor pads
Steel plates, fitting in the forklift slots, and bolts are shipped loose with the compressor. With these plates
and bolts, the compressor frame can be fixed to the floor.
2920 1727 00 13
Instruction book
Anti-condensation heaters
Electric heaters are installed in the motor windings and connected to the compressor cubicle. When the
compressor is stopped, the heaters are automatically switched on. The heaters in the motor will prevent
condensation during stand-still.
Automatic water shut-off

A water shut-off valve is provided in the cooling water system to shut off the system when the compressor is
not in operation.
Nema 4 control cubicle

The compressor electrical cubicle will be designed according to Nema 4 standard.

Air flow
Air drawn through filter (AF) and unloader (UA) is compressed in compressor element (E). Compressed air
and oil are discharged through check valve (CV) to air receiver/oil separator (AR) where oil is separated from
the compressed air. The air is blown through minimum pressure valve (Vp) to air cooler (Ca).
On GA Pack compressors, the cooled air is discharged through condensate trap (MTa) and outlet (AOw)
towards the air net.
On GA Full-Feature compressors, the cooled air is discharged through condensate trap (MTa) and outlet
(AOd) towards the air net via the integrated air dryer.
Check valve (CV) prevents blow-back of compressed air.
Minimum pressure valve (Vp) prevents the receiver pressure from dropping below a minimum pressure. The
valve has a built-in check valve.
Oil system
Air pressure forces the oil from receiver (AR) through oil cooler (Co), filters (OF), oil stop valve (Vs) and an
oil injection valve to the compressor element (E) and the lubrication points. The oil injection valve will open
at higher ambient temperatures to keep the element outlet temperature low.
A by-pass valve by-passes the oil cooler (Co) when the injection pressure is low, to ensure a sufficient initial
oil flow to the element when starting the compressor or when switching from unload to load.
For air-cooled units, the oil temperature is contolled by regulating the speed of the fans (FN), to avoid
overcooling and consequently condensation in the air receiver (AR).
2920 1727 00 19
Instruction book
On air-cooled compressors with energy recovery or water-cooled compressors, the oil temperature is contolled
by a thermostatic or electronic valve to avoid overcooling and consequently condensation in the air receiver
(AR).
In the air receiver (AR) most of the oil is removed from the air centrifugally. Almost all of the remaining oil
is removed by the separator element.

Regulating system
The compressor is controlled by Elektronikon® regulator (1)
The regulator keeps the net pressure within programmable pressure limits by automatically loading and
unloading the compressor depending on the air consumption. It also protects the compressor and monitors
components subject to service.
Unloading
If the air consumption is less than the air delivery of the compressor, the net pressure increases. When the net
pressure reaches the upper limit of the working pressure (unloading pressure), solenoid valve (5) is de-
energised by Elektronikon regulator (1). The plunger of solenoid valve (5) moves downwards by spring force:
Phase Description
1 The plunger of solenoid valve (5) shuts off the supply of receiver pressure towards
chamber (2).
2 Control pressure present in chamber (2) is vented to atmosphere. Plunger (3) of blow-off
valve (4) is moved by air receiver pressure allowing air receiver pressure to chamber (6).
3 Valve (7) is pushed upwards closing off the air inlet.
4 A small flow of air remains drawn in via channel (8), and is finally blown from receiver via
channel (10) to the air inlet.
5 Air delivery is stopped (0%), the compressor runs unloaded while chamber (6) contains a
steady overpressure (receiver unload pressure minus Blow Off valve (4) pressure drop).
Loading
When the net pressure decreases to the lower limit of the working pressure (loading pressure), solenoid valve
(5) is energised. The plunger of solenoid valve (5) moves upwards against spring force:
Phase
1 The plunger of solenoid valve (5) opens the supply of receiver pressure towards chamber
(2). Plunger (3) of blow-off valve (4) moves, closing off the air pressure supply towards
chamber (6).
2 Valve (7) moves downwards since the pressure in chamber (6) drops below atmospheric
pressure, opening the air inlet to the compressor element.
3 Air delivery is resumed (100%), the compressor runs loaded while the piston-rod-valve
assembly is only surrounded by atmospheric pressure.

3 Elektronikon regulator
3.1 Elektronikon® regulator
Control panel
Introduction
In general, the Elektronikon regulator has following functions:
• Controlling the compressor
• Protecting the compressor
• Monitoring components subject to service
• Automatic restart after voltage failure (made inactive)
Automatic control of compressor operation

The regulator maintains the net pressure between programmable limits by automatically loading and unloading
the compressor. A number of programmable settings, e.g. the unloading and loading pressures, the minimum
stop time and the maximum number of motor starts are taken into account.
The regulator stops the compressor whenever possible to reduce the power consumption and restarts it
automatically when the net pressure decreases. In case the expected unloading period is too short, the
compressor is kept running to prevent too short standstill periods.
A number of time-based automatic start/stop commands may be programmed. Take into

account that a start command will be executed (if programmed and activated), even after
manually stopping the compressor.
Protecting the compressor

Shut-down
24 2920 1727 00
Instruction book
Several sensors are provided on the compressor. If one of these measurements exceeds the programmed shut-
down level, the compressor will be stopped. This will be indicated on display (1) and general alarm LED (2)
will blink.
Remedy the trouble and reset the message. See also the Status data menu.
Before remedying, consult the Safety precautions.
Shut-down warning
A shut-down warning level is a programmable level below the shut-down level.
If one of the measurements exceeds the programmed shut-down warning level, a message will appear on
display (1) and general alarm LED (2) will light up, to warn the operator that the shut-down warning level is
exceeded.
The message disappears as soon as the warning condition disappears.
Service warning
A number of service operations are grouped (called Level A, B, C, ...). Each level has a programmed time
interval. If a time interval is exceeded, a message will appear on display (1) to warn the operator to carry out
the service actions belonging to that level.
Automatic restart after voltage failure

The regulator has a built-in function to automatically restart the compressor if the voltage is restored after
voltage failure. For compressors leaving the factory, this function is made inactive. If desired, the function
can be activated. Consult the Atlas Copco Customer Centre.
If activated and provided the regulator was in the automatic operation mode, the
compressor will automatically restart if the supply voltage to the module is restored within
a programmed time period.
The power recovery time (the period within which the voltage must be restored to have an
automatic restart) can be set between 1 and 3600 seconds or to “Infinite”. If the power
recovery time is set to “Infinite”, the compressor will always restart after a voltage failure,
no matter how long it takes to restore the voltage. A restart delay can also be programmed,
allowing e.g. two compressors to be restarted one after the other.

Terminology
Term Explanation

2920 1727 00 55
Instruction book
Term Explanation
Required stop Once the compressor has automatically stopped, it will remain stopped for the minimum
period/Minimum stop time (approx. 20 seconds), whatever the net air pressure. In automatic operation, the
stop time compressor will not be stopped by the regulator until a standstill period of at least the sum
of the minimum stop time and required stop period is expected. However, if the decrease
in air net pressure should require a new start of the compressor, the regulator will start the
compressor after the minimum stop time.
Power recovery Is the period within which the voltage must be restored to have an automatic restart. Is
time accessible if the automatic restart is activated. See Elektronikon regulator. To activate the
automatic restart function, consult Atlas Copco.
Unloading/ The regulator does not accept illogical settings, e.g. if the unloading pressure is
Loading pressure programmed at 7.0 bar(e)/101 psig, the maximum limit for the loading pressure changes
to 6.9 bar(e)/100 psig. The recommended minimum pressure difference between loading
and unloading is 0.6 bar/9 psig.
Delay at shut- Is the time for which the signal must exist before the compressor is shut down. If it is
down signal required to program this setting to another value, consult Atlas Copco.
Permissive start The compressor will not start if this level is exceeded at the moment of starting. If the level
level remains too high for 30 seconds, the message “Start failure” will appear on the display.

Description
Holes in the cubicle which are not used should be plugged.

All electric screens in the control cubicle and drive cubicle have to be installed before start-
up and remain installed during operation.

Instruction book
Phase Description
1 Install the compressor on a level floor suitable for taking its weight. For ventilation
alternative 1 (indicated as Alt. 1), the minimum distance between the top of the bodywork
and the ceiling is 1200 mm (47.2 in).
2 Remove the plastic plug (if provided) from the compressor air outlet pipe and fit the air
outlet valve (to be provided by the customer) to the pipe. Close the valve and connect it
to the net.
3 The pressure drop over the air outlet pipe can be calculated as follows:
For SI Units:
dp = (L x 450 x Qc1.85) / (d5 x p)
dp = Pressure drop (recommended maximum = 0.1 bar)
p = Absolute pressure at the compressor outlet in bar(a)
Qc = Free air delivery of the compressor in l/s
For British/American Units:
dp = (L x Qc1.85) / (1470 x d5 x p)
dp = Pressure drop (recommended maximum = 1.45 psi)
p = Absolute pressure at the compressor outlet in psig
Qc = Free air delivery of the compressor in cfm
It is recommended that the connection of the compressor air outlet pipe is made on top of
the main air net pipe in order to minimise carry-over of possible condensate residue.
As a rule of thumb, the following formula can be used to calculate the recommended
volume of the air net:
V = (30 x C x p x Q) / Dp
C = Correction factor
Dp = Pressure difference between unloading and loading pressures in bar (recommended
minimum = 0.6)
p = Compressor inlet pressure in bar absolute
Q = Free air delivery of compressor in l/s
V = Recommended air net volume in l
Correction factors
Air consumption divided by compressor free air delivery Correction factor C

Phase Description
4 The inlet grids and ventilation fan should be installed in such a way that any recirculation
of cooling air to the compressor is avoided. The maximum air velocity through the grids is
5 m/s (16.5 ft/s).
The required ventilation to limit the compressor room temperature can be calculated as
follows:
For SI Units:
On air-cooled compressors: Qv = 0.92 N/dT
On water-cooled compressors: Qv = 0.1 N/dT
Qv = Required ventilation capacity in m3/s
N = Shaft input of compressor in kW (for Pack compressors)
N = Shaft input of compressor in kW + heat dissipated by dryer in KW (for Full-Feature
compressors)
dT = Temperature increase in compressor room
For British/American Units:
On air-cooled compressors: Qv = 2618.5 N/dT
On water-cooled compressors: Qv = 284.5 N/dT
Qv = Required ventilation capacity in cfm
N = Shaft input of compressor in hp (for Pack compressors)
N = Shaft input of compressor in hp + heat dissipated by dryer in hp (for Full-Feature
compressors)
dT = Temperature increase in compressor room
If cooling air ducts are installed, the maximum allowable pressure drop over the ducts is
30 Pa (0.12 in wc). The maximum pressure drop depends on the ambient temperature.
The fan capacity should match the compressor fan capacity at a pressure head equal to
the pressure drop caused by the cooling air outlet ducts. Consult Atlas Copco.
5 Remove the plastic plugs (if provided) from the condensate outlets and fit the manual
condensate drain valve. Lay out the drain piping towards the condensate collector. The
drain pipes must not dip into the water of the drain collector. It is recommended to provide
a funnel to allow visual inspection of the condensate flow.
6 Location of the Elektronikon regulator.
7 See Electric cable size for the recommended size of the supply cables.
Check that the electrical connections correspond to the local codes. The installation must
be earthed and protected against short circuits by fuses in all phases. An isolating switch
must be installed near the compressor.
- A water shut-off valve and water drain valve in the compressor water inlet pipe and outlet
pipe can be installed by the customer. If water shut-off valves are installed, a safety device
with set pressure according to the maximum cooling water inlet pressure has to be installed
between the compressor water outlet pipe and the shut-off valve. When operating the unit,
the operator must ensure that the cooling water system cannot be blocked.
The above mentioned also applies for the energy recovery cooling system.
Remove the plastic plugs (if provided) from the compressor water pipes and connect the
pipes to the cooling water circuit.
For water-cooled compressors, the cooling water system installed outside the compressor
must be protected by a safety device with set pressure according to the maximum cooling
water inlet pressure.

4.5 Cooling water requirements
Recommendations
The cooling water quality must meet certain minimum requirements.
No general recommendation can encompass the effects of all combinations of the various compounds, solids
and gases typically found in cooling water in interaction with different materials.
Only non-treated water must be used.
74 2920 1727 00
Instruction book
This recommendation is a general guide line for acceptable coolant quality.
Type of system
First, it is important to consider whether you are dealing with a closed system or an open system. In a closed
system, the same cooling water circulates through a system without contact with air.
An open system is a pass-through system, or a circulating system with a cooling tower. In the latter case, the
composition of the water that enters the cooler must be considered, and not the composition of the make-up
water. Due to the evaporative effect in the cooling tower, much higher concentrations of ions can be obtained
in the circulating water than in the make-up water.
Ryznar stability index (RSI)

The Ryznar Stability Index (RSI) is a parameter for predicting whether water will tend to dissolve or precipitate
calcium carbonate. The adhesion of scaling deposits and their effect are different on different materials, but
the equilibrium of the water (scaling or corrosive) is only determined by its actual pH value and by the
saturation pH value (pHs).
The saturation pH value is determined by the relationship between the calcium hardness, the total alkalinity,
the total solids concentration and the temperature.
The Ryznar Index is calculated as follows :
RSI = 2*pHs - pH
Symbol Explanation
pH Measured pH (at room temperature) of water sample
pHs pH at saturation
The pHs is calculated by using :

pHs = (9.3 + A + B) - (C + D)
Symbol Explanation
A Depends on the total solids concentration (mg/l)
B Depends on the highest cooling water temperature (˚C/˚F), (T=75 ˚C/167 ˚F)
C Depends on the calcium hardness (ppm CaCO3)
D Depends on the HCO3- concentration or M-alkalinity (mval/l)
The values of A, B, C and D can be found in the following table.

5.1 Initial start-up
Warning
The operator must apply all relevant Safety precautions.
Switch off the voltage before making any adjustment.
Outdoor/altitude operation
If the compressor is installed outdoors or if the air inlet temperature can be below freezing point, precautions
must be taken. In this case, and also if operating at high altitude, consult Atlas Copco.
Moving/lifting
The compressor can be moved by a lift truck using the slots in the frame. Make sure that the forks protrude
from the other side of the frame. The compressor can also be lifted after inserting beams in the slots. Make
sure that the beams cannot slide and that they protrude from the frame equally. The chains must be held parallel
to the bodywork by chain spreaders in order not to damage the compressor. The lifting equipment must be
placed in such a way that the compressor is lifted perpendicularly. Lift gently and avoid twisting.

7 DD filter
7.1 Maintenance
When maintaining the filter, keep in mind the following:

• On filters with manual drain valve, open the latter at regular intervals to evacuate collected dust or liquid
• Change the filter element yearly or when the pressure drop reaches approx. 0.35 bar
• In case an automatic drain valve is installed, manual draining can be carried out by turning the connection
nipple of the automatic drain valve counterclockwise.
•
When the filter has to process air with a temperature higher than the specified maximum
temperature, the filter's lifetime will be reduced considerably!
7.2 Filter element change
Procedure
When maintaining the filter, keep in mind the following:

1. Isolate the filter from the air net.
2. Depressurize the filter by turning the connection nipple of the automatic drain valve counterclockwise or
by opening the manual drain valve.
3. Unscrew the bowl. A whistling noise will warn you if the bowl is not fully depressurized. If this occurs,
the bowl should be screwed back and the venting should be repeated.
4. Discard the old filter element.
5. Remove the O-ring from the bowl and clean the bowl with isopropanol. Cleaning cloths of Kimtech are
recommended. Position a new O-ring on the bowl.
6. Open the sealed bag at the topcap side of the filter cartridge.
7. Take the cartridge and lower the plastic until the middle of the cartridge.
8. Position the cartridge under the filter head and push it in place. Only touch the plactic bag. Avoid contact
of the filter cartridge with the hands.
2920 1727 00 101

Instruction book
9. Remove the plastic bag and reposition the bowl.
A small amount of paint compatible lubricant ( e.g . FOODLUBE EXTREME) may be applied
to screw threads and O-rings to facilitate the assembly.
7.3 Service intervals
The following service intervals should be observed:

• For filters operating less than 4000 hours per year: 12 months.
• For filters operating 8000 hours per year: 4000 hours or 6 months, whichever comes first.
7.4 Filter disposal
Used filters must be disposed of in an environmentally friendly and safe manner, and in line with the local
recommendations and environmental legislation.

8 Integrated dryer
8.1 Condensate drain system
Description
The condensate enters the Electronic Water Drain (EWD) via inlet (1) and accumulates in the water separator
of the heat exchanger and in collector (2). A capacitive sensor (3) continuously measures the liquid level. As
soon as the collector is filled up to a certain level, a drain delay timer is started. As soon as the delay time has
expired, pilot valve (4) is activated and diaphragm (5) opens outlet (6), discharging the condensate.
When the collector has been emptied, the outlet closes quickly without wasting compressed air.
When the controller registers a malfunction, the red alarm LED starts flashing, a warning appears on the
display of the regulator and the electronic drain valve will automatically change to the alarm mode, opening
and closing the valve according to a sequence as shown below. This condition continues until the fault is
remedied. If the fault is not remedied automatically, maintenance is required.

8.2 Maintenance instructions
Important
Cooling dryers of the ID type contain refrigerant HFC.
Safety precautions
When handling refrigerant R404a, all applicable safety precautions must be observed. The following
points are stressed:
• Contact of refrigerant with the skin will cause freezing. Special gloves must be worn and, if there is contact
with the skin, the skin should be rinsed with water. On no account may clothing be removed.
• Fluid refrigerant will also cause freezing of the eyes; therefore, safety glasses must be worn.
• Refrigerant R404a is poisonous. Do not inhale refrigerant vapours. Check that the working area is
adequately ventilated.
Local legislation
Local legislation may impose that:
• Work on the refrigerant circuit of the cooling dryer or on any equipment which influences its function
must be carried out by an authorised control body.
• The installation should be checked once a year by an authorised control body.
