PCL D90 series Tyre Inflator
General Specifications
D90 and D91
Max inlet supply: 218 psi / 15 bar / 1500 kPa
Recommended supply : 10 psi / 0.7 bar / 70 kPa
above the max set pressure of Inflator
D92 and D93 optional internal 7 or 10 bar compressor
Max operating pressure : 145 psi / 10 bar / 1000kPa (10 bar)
Max operating pressure : 80 psi / 5-50 bar / 550kPa (7 bar)
Min operating pressure: 4 psi / 0.3 bar / 30 kPa
Display resolution: 1 psi / 0.1 bar / 10 kPa
Units of measurement: psi / bar / kPa / kg/cm
Electrical Installation
In order to provide a trouble free operation it is necessary to connect the power supply from the main switchboard with a MAX
3amp fuse/RCB protection device. This must be grounded.
The circuit breaker should be marked as the disconnecting device for the equipment.
Inside installations
Use 3 pin connecting plugs or 2 pin + Earth with the Earth Ground wire installed on electrical infrastructure. This must be grounded.
Outdoor installations
The unit must be connected to an earth conductor or conducting metal work (metal pipe conduit or sheathing) which has equipotential bonding to the main Earthing point of the installation.
The unit is designed to run with the earth connection installed.
"According to Class 1 - Basic insulation in conjunction with protective Earthing"
Water installation (optional)
For models D91 and D93 ensure that 15mm piping is available to connect to the water supply port.

Air installation
For models D90 and D91 only
The compressor producing the air should have the necessary water and dirt filtration, to minimise accumulation of debris at the inflator line filter strainer.
For efficient tyre inflation, ensure that the air supply is 10 psi, 0.7 bar or 70kPa above the intended maximum inflation range.
