TSUNAMI PURE Series Regenerative Dryer User Manual

TSUNAMI PURE Series Regenerative Dryer

Product Information

The Tsunami Pure Series Regenerative Dryers are a drying system that includes different models with Moisture Minder Pneumatic Drain Valves. These models include Pure-1, Pure-3, Pure-5, Pure-5T, Portable Pure-5T, Pure-7, Pure-10, Pure-20, and Pure-30. The dryers come with a warning to adhere to the specifications and maintenance schedule listed in the manual to ensure years of service with minimal maintenance. The dryer specifications include the model number, maximum flow, inlet port, regeneration orifice, number of towers, number of towers drying, and number of towers regenerating. The maximum pressure is 175 psi and the outlet port weight varies depending on the model. The dryer is configurable in multiple variations. The installation and service requirements include the recommendation to determine the direction of air flow that best meets installation application requirements before beginning installation. It is also important to follow the required maintenance schedule to avoid voiding the warranty.

Product Usage Instructions

1. Install a bypass circuit around the regenerative dryer for ease of service.
2. Install the supplied FEMALE JIC fitting to outlet port of the Tsunami prefilter assembly using appropriate thread sealant.
3. Determine preferred direction of flow. The inlet air must travel through the Tsunami filters prior to entering the regenerative dryer.
4. Using appropriate thread sealant, install the MALE JIC connector to either the left or right INLET / AUX port of the dryer.
5. To use the dryer, open the inlet and outlet ball valves and close the bypass valve to direct air flow through the regenerative dryer. This will provide clean, dry air downstream.
6. To bypass the dryer for service or maintenance, close the inlet and outlet ball valves and open the bypass valve to direct airflow around the dryer. This will allow service or maintenance to be performed without shutting down the total compressed air supply.

THE FOLLOWING USER MANUAL APPLIES TO TSUNAMI PURE SERIES REGENERATIVE DRYERS

Includes All Models with Moisture Minder Pneumatic Drain Valves

WARNING
Your safety is very important. Read all instructions before beginning any service or installation on your Tsunami Regenerative Dryer. Always wear safety eye protection when working with compressed air products. Failure to follow maintenance instructions could result in operating failure or product damage. System pressure must be released prior to any installation or service. Always install the system with the arrows indicating the direction of airflow. Use appropriate thread sealant on all connection fittings unless otherwise specified. Do not alter the dryer or filtration system from its original design as this may cause failure in its operational parameters.

DESCRIPTION

Congratulations on the purchase of your Tsunami Regenerative Drying System! By adhering to the specifications and maintenance schedule listed in the manual, your air system will provide years of service with minimal maintenance. Incoming air enters the 1st stage water separator where water and particulates are removed down to 10 micron. The air then travels through the 2nd stage oil coalescing filter where oil aerosols are filtered down to .001 ppm and particulates are trapped down to .01 micron. The pretreated air enters the regenerative dryer where molecular sieve desiccant captures water vapor. Approximately every 2 minutes (90 seconds for 12v timers) the timer sends out a signal causing an internal piston to shift. The shift in the piston redirects air flow through the opposite dryer canister(s); dryers are available with alternative voltage options. The Tsunami Regenerative Drying System can provide dew points down to -80°F and relative humidity down to .01% RH. All dryers come standard with automatic drains to assure proper discharge of all contaminants captured in the water separator and oil coalescing filter.

DRYER SPECIFICATIONS

INSTALLATION & SERVICE REQUIREMENTS

IMPORTANT : Tsunami Regenerative Dryers are configurable in multiple variations. Before beginning installation it is important to determine the direction of air flow which best meets your installation application requirements. Failure to follow required maintenance schedule will void warranty.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS – BYPASS CIRCUIT INSTALL
For ease of service, it is highly recommended to install a bypass circuit around the regenerative dryer. Follow the diagram below when installing a bypass circuit. Verify that system pressure is relieved prior to performing installation.

1. A. Inlet Ball Valve
2. B. Bypass Ball Valve
3. C. Outlet Ball Valve

Using the dryer : Open the inlet (A) and outlet (C) ball valves and close the bypass (B) valve to direct air flow through the regenerative dryer. This will provide clean, dry air downstream.

Bypassing the dryer : Close the inlet (A) and outlet (C) ball valves and open the bypass (B) valve to direct airflow around the dryer. This will allow service or maintenance to be preformed without shutting down total compressed air supply.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS – DRYER INSTALLTION
IMPORTANT: Tsunami Regenerative Dryers are configurable in multiple variations. Before beginning installation it is important to determine the direction of air flow which best meets your installation application requirements. All dryers contained in this manual follow the same installation procedures.

1. Remove all system pressure.
2. Using the appropriate hardware (not included), mount dryer bracket to wall. Be sure fasteners and mounting location can hold the weight of the dryer (see dryer specifications on page 1).
3. Once the wall bracket has been properly secured to the wall, place the dryer mounting rail into the slot(s) of the wall bracket.
4. Install the supplied FEMALE JIC fitting to outlet port of the Tsunami pre-filter assembly. Use appropriate thread sealant.
5. Determine preferred direction of flow. IMPORTANT: Inlet air must travel through the Tsunami filters prior to entering the regenerative dryer.
6. Using the appropriate thread sealant, install the MALE JIC connector to either the left or right INLET / AUX port of the dryer.
7. Using an adjustable or 5/8” wrench, plug the remaining open ports with the provided 1” port plugs and large hex tool. Use appropriate thread sealant.
8. Attach the filter assembly to the dryer housing by connecting the MALE and FEMALE JIC fittings. Tighten firmly.
9. (MM MODELS ONLY) Use provided ¼” black nylon tubing to connect Moisture Minder® Filter Drains to “T” fitting(s) located on dryer housing. Excess tubing can be cut to length.
10. (MM MODELS ONLY) Attach 3/8” clear plastic tubing to barbed fittings on the Moisture Minder® Filter Drains. Follow all local and state regulations when routing the drain line condensate discharge.
