LEAKING. IMMEDIATELY TAKE THE DRYER OUT OF SER-
VICE.
DO NOT OPERATE THIS DRYER ABOVE THE MAXIMUM
RATED WORKING PRESSURE.
NOTE
OPERATING CONDITIONS FOR PROPER PERFORMANCE OF
THIS DRYER ARE DIFFERENT FROM MAXIMUM
OPERATING CONDITIONS FOR THE VESSELS. BE SURE TO
CHECK THE DRYER OPERATING CONDITIONS. SEE SEC-
TION 3.1
USE THIS DRYER FOR NATURAL GAS ONLY.
DO NOT OPERATE THIS DRYER IF EITHER VESSEL HAS

2.4 MAINTENANCE
DO NOT REMOVE, REPAIR, OR REPLACE ANY ITEM ON
THE DRYER WHILE IT IS PRESSURIZED. TURN OFF MAIN
POWER TO THE DRYER AND DEPRESSURIZE THE DRYER
COMPLETELY BEFORE STARTING MAINTENANCE
PROCEDURES.
DO NOT WELD OR GRIND THE VESSELS. THEY WILL NOT
BE SAFE TO OPERATE. (Note: Any uncertified alteration to
the vessels VOIDS the ASME Code Certification.)
INSPECT OUTSIDE AND INSIDE OF VESSELS REGULARLY
FOR CORROSION AND DAMAGE (I.E. DENTS, GOUGES OR
BULGES). ANY DAMAGE TO THE VESSELS CAN MAKE
THEM UNSAFE TO USE. IF DAMAGED, TAKE OUT OF
SERVICE IMMEDIATELY.
If outside storage is required, the unit MUST BE adequately covered to
prevent rain or snow from accumulating on the dryer. The unit must be
placed on a paved surface to keep it out of standing water and mud.
1.3 EQUIPMENT CHECK
Inspect the dryer for any damage that may have occurred during ship-
ment. Inspect all fittings, piping connections, fasteners, etc. for loose
connections. Also check gauges and lights for cracks or breakage.
IF DRYER HAS BEEN DAMAGED DURING SHIPMENT:
(1) NOTIFY CARRIER IMMEDIATELY AND FILE A CLAIM.
(2) CONSULT FACTORY BEFORE OPERATING THE DRYER.

SELS) AS THE OTHER COMPONENTS ARE NOT DESIGNED
TO SUPPORT THE WEIGHT OF THE DRYER.
LIFTING BY OTHER COMPONENTS MAY CAUSE PERSONAL
