Deltech Fitness PYRAMID 8000 - Manual (Page 5)

INTRODUCTION
Pyramid 8000 ® (8DM) Series compressed breathing
air purifiers are designed to reduce the concentration
of oil, moisture, particulates and carbon monoxide in
the airstream.
When applied at rated capacity and specified operating
conditions as shown in Table III and properly main-
tained, 8DM Series purifiers supply air that meets
OSHA, Canadian Standards Association (CSA) and
Compressed Gas Association (CGA) standards for
compressed breathing air quality, as well as National
Fire Protection Association (NFPA) standards for
medical air quality. Refer to Table 1 for the maximum
allowable carbon monoxide concentration levels at the
purifier inlet.
Air entering the purifier must not be oxygen deficient.
8DM Series purifiers will not increase the oxygen con-
tent of purifier inlet air.
WARNING
To ensure continuing good performance and
safe operation of the purifier, everyone who
installs, operates, maintains or uses it must
read and carefully follow the instructions in
this manual. Installation and maintenance
must be done only by qualified personnel.

ing from the purifier; identify the label by the part
number printed below it.
