Start-Up Procedure
1. Place the ZAG on a level,
dry surface.
2. Check to make sure the
power switch is in the ‘off’ position.
3. Plug the unit into a
standard 110V electrical outlet.
4. Open the flow control knob
fully (turn the knob counter-clockwise).
5. Connect the calibration gas line to the 1/4”
tube compression fitting located on the top
panel of the generator.
6. Turn the power switch to the ‘on’ position.
7. Adjust the flow control valve to the desired air
output. Maximum capacity is 18 lpm.
8. High purity air will be produced within 2
minutes after start-up.
Note: There is a
trade off between
air pressure and
flow. High air
volumes will result
in lower air
pressure, and vice
versa. If low
pressure, low flow
applications are
encountered, a
pressure regulator
should be
connected between
the instrument and
the Zero-Air
Generator.
