b) Stop the dryer 2 minutes after shutting down the air compressor or interrupting
the air flow to the dryer.
Avoid allowing compressed air to enter the dryer when the dryer is
switched off or when it is in an alarm situation which stops the refrigeration
compressor.
3.4
Operation
S The dryer operates automatically. It is factory set for a dew point of 50˚F (10˚C)
and therefore requires no further calibration.
S Do not exceed the machine's design limits, by---pass excess air flow and check the
unit model and/or installation.
S For maximum performance from your dryer, follow the maintenance schedule de-
scribed in Chapter 4.
S The sound pressure level recorded for these dryers 40 inch (at 1 metre) from the
machine in free field conditions is less then 50 dB(A) (models DS15- - H), 55 dB(A)
(models DS25- - H--- DS100- - H)
Fig. 6 shows the Dryer's refrigeration and air circuits.
N.B.: In the event of aftercooler fan malfunction leading to an increase in the tem-
perature within the filter, to above 149˚F (65˚C), check the integrity of the filter's
element and drain and substitute these components if necessary.

AFTERCOOLER
If necessary (coil blocked) remove the fan and clean the coil in the
opposite direction to the air flow using a high pressure water jet (this
operation must be performed by a technician to avoid damage).
