Regulator and Filter Instructions
INSTALLATION, OPERATION and MAINTENANCE
WARNING! The polycarbonate plastic material used to
manufacture the plastic bowls may be attacked by certain
chemicals. Do not use this filter system with air supplied by
a compressor lubricated with synthetic oils or oils
containing phosphate esters or chlorinated hydrocarbons.
These oils can carry over into the air lines and chemically
attack and possibly rupture the bowl. Also, do not expose
the bowl to materials such as carbon tetrachloride,
trichlorethylene, acetone paint thinner, cleaning fluids, or
other harmful materials, for they too will cause the plastic
to craze and/or rupture. for use in environments where
any of these chemicals may be present, consult the
factory.
INSTALLATION:
Install in vertical position with air supply connected to the
in port stamped on body of unit. before piping-in, blow out
line to remove scale and other foreign matter. If pipe
compound is used apply only to male threads and just
enough to make tight connections.
MAINTENANCE:
To obtain best efficiency and longest periods of trouble-
free operation the air supply must be kept clean as dirt is
the most common cause of erratic regulator operation.
Only a few parts require occasional replacement most
troubles can be cured and prevented by a thorough and
careful cleaning procedure. To clean it is not necessary to
remove unit from its piping or line. At the bottom of the
bowl is a manual drain valve which should be periodically
opened particularly when sediment is visible in bowl.
DISASSEMBLY FOR CLEANING:
Depressurize the air line, unscrew and remove the bowl.
Unscrew filter element and let down bottom disc, filter, top
disc, spring and plunger. Note orientation of plunger and
top disc. Clean filter element and assemble parts as
removed. Make sure “o” ring seal for bowl is in place.
Tighten the filter element and bowl hand tight.
CLEANING:
for best results clean parts with soap water. After
cleaning blow out parts including body of unit with
compressed air. The bronze filter should be blown out from
the inside,blocking one end with folded rag. Plastic bowl
must be cleaned with household soap only!
