 Make sure the product is fixed properly with anchor bolts.
 Do not place heavy objects on the product or add unreasonable loading by piping and so on.
Connection of cables
 Check that the power cable and grounding cable are connected correctly.
Drain tube
 Drain tube should be connected correctly.
Air piping
 Confirm that the piping to the compressed air is correctly connected. Check that the IN and OUT
side of the product and bypass piping valves are completely closed.
Ball valve
 Ensure that the ball valve of the auto drain is opened.

4.2 Operation
Start operation according to the procedure below.
1) Turn on the main power supply breaker. Turn on the switch with lamp.
2) The operation lamp turns on. After a moment, the cooling fan will rotate, and hot air will be exhausted
from the ventilation outlet.
3) Open the IN and OUT side valves slowly. Ensure the bypass valve is completely closed.
Confirm that there is no air leakage.
4) The fan keeps starting and stopping depending on the compressed air and ambient temperature
conditions, but the compressor keeps operating continuously, and the evaporation thermometer stays
within the green area.
When the refrigerant pressure gauge indicator is in the area higher than the green area, refer to
Chapter 6 Troubleshooting.
5) After supplying compressed air for a while, the drain will be discharged from the drain tube
automatically.
6) Continue the operation.

CAUTION
- Frequently switching ON and OFF leads to malfunction.
- The auto drain is normally open and the valve closes when the air pressure is 14.5psi (0.1MPa)
or more. When the IN side valve starts to open, air bleeds from the drain outlet until the
pressure reaches 14.5psi (0.1MPa). The pressure may not reach 14.5psi (0.1MPa) when the air
compressor discharge flow rate is small.
- Dehumidified drain may flow into the secondary piping if there is a sudden change of
pressure or flow speed. Do not use the product where these conditions are present.

4.5 Check points before restart

When starting operation, check the following points. Immediately stop operation if any abnormality
occurs. Turn off the switch with lamp and shut off the breaker of the power supply.
- There should be no leakage of compressed air.
- Compressed air pressure, temperature, flow rate and ambient temperature are within the
specifications of the product.
- Confirm that drain comes out of the drain tube.
- The evaporation thermometer is in the green area.
- Drain should not be exhausted from the compressed air outlet of the air dryer.
- There should be no abnormality with noise or vibration or odour from the product.

4.6 Cautions when the product is shut down for an

extended period of time
- When the product is not used for longer than 24 hours, turn off the operation switch or power supply for
safety and saving energy. It is recommended to discharge pressure from the compressed air piping.
- The residual drainage in the air dryer may splash over the outlet when the operation is re-started, so it
is recommended to install a filter on the outlet of the air dryer.

Air circuit
The humid hot air that enters the air dryer first goes into the reheater, and exchanges its heat with
dehumidified cold air to pre-cool it. Then, the air enters the evaporator, where it releases its heat
to a cold HFC, and is dehumidified and cooled further to let moisture separate. Finally, the air
exchanges heat with the hot air coming to the air dryer and its temperature increases higher, and
it leaved the air dryer as warm, dry air.

Refrigerant circuit
The fluorocarbon gas (HFC) in the refrigerant circuit is compressed by the compressor and cooled
by the condenser to become liquid. When passing through the capillary tube, the HFC gas is
regulated and its temperature decreases. While passing through the cooler part, it evaporates
rapidly, taking the heat from the compressed air, and is sucked in by the compressor. The volume
control valve opens when the compressed air has been cooled sufficiently, and prevents
condensed water from being frozen by excessive cooling.
