Strong vibrations
Strong vibrations of the plant can damage the adsorber.
Pressure range of the system
The adsorber should not be exposed to over- or underpressure above 0.5 bar, otherwise the housing
may be damaged.
Cleaning of the adsorber
For cleaning the adsorber, the use of a mild soap in combination with water is recommended. The use of
brake cleaner will damage the adsorber and is no reason for complaint.
Thread of the adsorber and accessories is damaged
When mounting the adsorber on the system, the threads must be
slightly moistened with oil. If the threads are not oiled, this can
lead to the individual thread rubbing and is not a reason for
complaint.
Section 10: Maintenance plan
1. Check seals for wear
Check The O-rings installed in the adsorber and the flat gasket must be checked for perfect
condition. For this purpose, the seals in the cover, on the filter and on the connection
should be checked and examined for brittleness.
Cycle Half-yearly
Measures In case of existing damage, a new spare parts kit or a new adsorber should be used.
2. Visual inspection of the activated carbon
Check The loading condition of the activated carbon must be determined by visual inspection of
the adsorber. The colour white indicates that the activated carbon can still adsorb oil and
that air is cleaned. If the activated carbon is completely saturated, the colour changes
from white to brown.
Cycle Half-yearly
Measures If the activated carbon is loaded, a new spare parts kit or a new adsorber with fresh
activated carbon should be used.
