8. PRODUCT FUNCTION
8.1. Compressor with adsorption dryer
Fig. 1: Compressor aggregates (12) draw in
atmospheric air through the intake filters and compress it through check valves into the compressed air system. A connecting hose
(13) connects this system to the external adsorption dryer (8). From the inlet to the dryer module, the air is first cooled in the integrated cooler (9) and then through the condensate separator (10), entering the active chamber with adsorbent (11), where the air is dried. A portion of the air is fed into the second, regeneration chamber, where this air is used to remove moisture from the adsorbent, after which it is released through the silencer (21). The active chamber switches on a cyclical basis. Dry and filtered air then passes through the check valve into the air tank (2). The treated compressed air is ready for additional use in the air tank.

THE
Risk of electric shock.
In case of emergency, disconnect the compressor from the mains (pull out the mains plug).
Burn or fire hazard.
When the compressor is running, the connecting hose between the compressor and dryer and parts of the dryer and aggregate may be hot enough to burn people or other material.
Warning - compressor is controlled automatically.
Automatic compressor start. The automatically switches on when the pressure in the air tank drops to the pressure switch’s lower limit level. The compressor automatically switches off once the pressure in the tank reaches the shut-off pressure .
Potential for damage to pneumatic components.
The working pressure settings for the pressure switch set by the manufacturer cannot be changed. Compressor operation at a working pressure below the switching pressure indicates high air usage (see the
Troubleshooting chapter).
Risk of damage to the dryer.
The dryer may suffer damage if operated at ambient temperatures above its maximum working pressure as specified in the Technical Data chapter .
Required drying performance can only be achieved when following the defined operating conditions.
Drying performance will decline and the achieved dew point will drop if the dryer is operated at any pressure below the minimum working pressure.
During prolonged operation of the compressor, the temperature inside the enclosed model may increase to over 40°C. At this point the cooling fan in the enclosure and the compressor fan automatically switch on. The fans switch off automatically once the space is cooled to below 32°C.

Press the START button to turn on all the compressor aggregates. The pressure sensor monitors the pressure in the air tank.
The aggregates operate in automatic mode, and are switched on and off (see the section on working pressures in the Technical Data chapter) by the controller depending on the compressed air usage. The compressors sequentially turn off once the switching pressure is reached.
The motors may be shut down by pressing the
STOP button (18), after which the display returns to the start screen.
Note: The START button is pre-set to
"RETENTIVITY=ON", which means that if the compressor has been activated once using the START button, the system remembers this action and there is no need to press the
START button to start up the compressor in the event of a power loss or if the compressor has been turned off.
Normal operation
Aggregates operate in automatic mode and are switched on and off based on the demand for compressed air. When the pressure in the air tank drops to the switching pressure, the compressors automatically switch on in a sequence. This ensures that the required pressure is delivered to the air tank in the shortest possible time.
Two screens are shown on the display during the normal operation of the equipment:

04/2022
PRODUCT MAINTENANCE pressure drops.
The pressure in the compressed air circuit can only increase because of an increase in flow resistance in the compressed air lines or as a result of a dryer malfunction
(e.g. solenoid valve malfunction), and therefore the repeated opening of the relief valve requires a dryer function check and repairs if necessary!
Consultation with the manufacturer is required before any adjustment is made to the relief valve!
