INSTALLATION
AIR FILTER INSTALLATION
The following air filter installation guidelines are
essential for optimum performance:
1. 25mm OD (1-inch OD) minimum inbound
main air line.
2. Use only recommended pre-filters and bear-
ing air filters as shown in "Air Filtration Require-
ments" in this section. Additional system air
filtration (i.e., refrigerated air dryer) may also be
used if desired.
3. Mount the bearing air filter as close as pos-
sible to the RMA-303. (DO NOT mount further
than 30-feet (9.1 meters) away.)
4. DO NOT use tape, pipe dope, or other
thread sealant downstream of the bearing air
filter. Loose flakes of tape or other sealant
can break loose and plug the very fine air holes
in the turbine air bearings.
5. Air heaters are highly recommended for use in
the system to minimize the effect of excessively
humid conditions. If the heated air will exceed
120°F (48.9°C), the heater must be located after
all filters to prevent damage to the filter media.
† With the exception of fluid, dump, and
pilot air supply lines should be bulkheaded
and their diameters increased one size. For
example: turbine air should be increased
to a 12mm OD from bulkhead plate to the
volume booster.
NOTE
AIR PRESSURE
REQUIREMENTS
† Each applicator must have its own filter
fo bearing air. Recommended: RPM-418
or equivalent.
