General Safety Information
1. Pressurized devices
This equipment is a pressure containing device.
•Do not exceed maximum operating pressure as
shown on equipment serial number tag.
•Make certain equipment is depressurized before
servicing.
2. Electrical
This equipment requires electricity to operate.
•Install equipment in compliance with national and
local electrical codes.
•Standard equipment is supplied with NEMA 1
electrical enclosures and is not intended for
installation in hazardous environments.
•Disconnect power supply to equipment when per-
forming any electrical service work.
3. Breathing air
•Air treated by this equipment may not be suitable
for breathing without further purification. Refer to
OSHA standard 1910.134 for the requirements for
breathing quality air.

2. Location in the compressed air system
A. Maximum working pressure - 175 psig,
12.3 kgf/cm 2. Do not exceed unit’s Maximum Working
Pressure.
1) For maximum capacity, install unit in air system at
highest pressure possible (e.g. before pressure
reducing valves)
2) For maximum capacity, install unit at coolest
compressed air temperature possible. Maximum
inlet compressed air temperature: 180 °F, 82°C. If
inlet air exceeds this temperature, precool the air
by extending the piping between the compressor
and the dryer.
B. Air Outlet - Connect air outlet to downstream air lines.
C. By-pass piping - If servicing the unit without interrupt-
ing the air supply is desired, piping should include inlet
and outlet isolation valves and an air by-pass valve.
D. Condensate drain - It is advisable to connect drain
outlet to the condensate drainage system.
NOTE: Drain discharge is at system pressure. Drain line
should be anchored to prevent whipping.
1.4 Electrical connections
A. Dryer is designed to operate on power supply (volt-
age) listed on serial number tag located on the back of
the dryer.
B. Dryer is supplied with an electrical cord. Install in
receptacle of proper voltage.
NOTE: Models 50 and 75 (115v only) - Install plug
in receptacle rated for 20 amps. Units are
supplied with 20 amp plug.
NOTE: Refrigeration system is designed to run continu-
ously and should NOT be wired to cycle on/off with the air
compressor.

1.0 INSTALLATION
1.1 Location
A. Air compressor intake - Locate air compressor so that
contaminants potentially harmful to the dryer are not
drawn into the air system.
B. Free air flow - Do not block either side of the cabinet.
Observe minimum installation clearances as shown.
1.2 Mounting
Dryer is suitable for floor or shelf mounting.
1.3 Piping connections
A. Air Inlet - Connect compressed
air line from air compressor to
air inlet using strainer supplied.
1. Install strainer (included in
shipping carton) prior to
dryer inlet using pipe nipple
supplied or other piping as
required.
NOTE: Observe flow direction arrows on strainer.
NOTE: Install strainer where it is easily accessible for
cleaning.
NOTE: Use vibration dampener, if vibration exists in air line
at inlet to dryer.

2.0 OPERATION
NOTE: Installations above 6000 feet, 1825 meters
Unit is adjusted to operate in altitudes up to 6000 feet,
1825 meters. If unit is installed in an altitude above this,
and has not been preset at the factory for this altitude,
contact Manufacturer’s Service Department.
2.1 Start-up
Start refrigeration system by pushing the on/off switch to
the ON position (depress rocker switch on side marked
