Installation

WARNING Disconnect power and release all pressure from the system before attempting to install, service, relocate or perform any maintenance.

1. The air cleaner/dryer should be located as close as possible to the air tool or spray gun.

2. A shutoff valve should be installed before the air cleaner/dryer so the unit can be easily depressurized for servicing. Securely mount the air cleaner/dryer in a vertical position using the mounting bracket supplied with the unit.
   

3. Install a Campbell Hausfeld 3/8” Filter (PA2121) before and after the coalescing filter/dryer for optimum performance. Connect the piping or hose with airflow in the direction of the arrows cast into the top of the unit. Avoid using unnecessary fittings, couplings, etc., that restrict air flow.

4. Remove the bowl from the dryer housing by pushing the bowl toward the body and rotating bowl. Pull bowl down to remove from housing.

5. Open bag of desiccant and pour into bowl. Shake or tap bowl periodically to settle desiccant. Fill to within 1/2” from top of bowl. Do not allow desiccant to get into center tube.

6. Reinstall bowl on housing. Be sure it is securely locked in place before pressurizing the unit.

7. The coalescing filter is supplied with the filter element preinstalled.

8. Be sure to use a clean air hose to prevent contamination of the cleaned air.

9. Pressurize system and check for any air leaks.

Operation

Before turning on the air pressure supply, make certain the bowls are securely locked in place and all fittings are tight.
