Air Compressor
Note: Skip this step if the Advantage unit being serviced does not use the air compressor.
Unplug the power from the compressor. Vent the air tank by pulling the pressure relief ring located
underneath the pressure switch.
Air Intake Filters
1. Remove the two air filters located on the top of the compressor by unscrewing
counter clockwise. Discard the old filters and install the two new filters. See
figure 8.
5µm Filter
2. Unscrew the lower housing of the 5µm filter. See figure 8.
3. Remove the old filter by unscrewing it and replace with the new filter.
4. Replace the housing o-ring with the supplied o-ring and lubricate with silicone oil.
5. Replace the lower housing, hand tighten only.
Check Valve
1. Locate the check valve assembly underneath the pressure switch.
2. Remove the two braided stainless steel hoses from the end of the check valve by
loosening the two fittings. See figure 8.
3. Unscrew the check valve housing, the base of the housing will stay on the air tank.
4. Carefully remove the housing noting the order of the internal parts.
5. Clean and inspect the inside of the housing.
6. Disassemble the new check valve and replace the internal parts of the old check
valve with the internal parts of the new check valve. Ensure all pieces go back in
the proper order. See figure 9.
7. Reattach the check valve housing to the air tank.
8. Reattach the two braided stainless steel tubing.
Note: When the compressor is repowered check for leaks.
Note: The kit includes a 0.1µm filter kit which is only used on the older style compressor. The
filter replacement procedure is the same as the 5µm filter noted above.

2. Replace the 8 o-rings on the basin connector posts.
3. Lightly lubricate each o-ring with silicone oil.
Basin Drain Filter
1. Performed on both sides.
2. Replace the basin drain filter located in basin drain.
Plug the Advantage power back in, turn on the water and restart the computer.
Pressure Switch Settings
There are a total of 10 pressure switches per basin (8 on the channel manifold, and 2 on the
alcohol & detergent dosing unit. There are two switch levels that must be checked for each
pressure switch:
•Upper level (Moment of switching on as pressure is increased)
•Lower level (Moment of switching off as pressure is decreased)

Adjusting Pressure Switches (If necessary)
1. The pressure switches should be set correctly, however, it is necessary to verify the
correct settings, and make any adjustments if needed.
2. Connect the hand pump to the appropriate channel.
3. Increase pressure using hand pump until the switch activates.
4. Verify pressure level for activation.
5. Slowly decrease pressure on hand pump until the switch deactivates.
6. Verify pressure level for deactivation.
7. If any adjustments are necessary to the pressure switches, adjust the central screw 1 to
set the upper level. Adjust screw 2 to set the difference in upper and lower levels.
Pressure Regulators
Adjust pressure regulators as follows:
General: 3.0 bar (± 0.1 bar)
Leak Test: 0.25 bar
Connectivity: 1.9 bar
Channel pump: 24 psi (± 1 psi)
Setting channel pump regulators
1. Ensure WLD block in installed in basin
2. Using the expert screen, fill basin with several inches of water by closing the drain, and
turning on water supply.
3. Turn on the channel pump, open the spray head, and open each of the channels one by
one to prime the lines.
4. After lines are primed, close the spray head and all the channels. Remember that the
elevator channel is normally open, and must be activated to close.
5. At this point, the channel pump should be pumping against a deadhead (no flow).
6. Adjust the channel pump regulator for 24 psi (± 1 psi) with the pump deadheaded.
7. Secure the regulator’s adjusting knob by pressing it in.
•Update the software if necessary

all”.
2. For alcohol activate Y10, Y11, and P0C until alcohol starts entering basin through the
elevator port on the hookup block, then press “release all”.
•Run test cycles on both sides and check for fluid leaks
•No waterline disinfection is needed unless work on the water supply valves or the pre-filters has been
performed
•Perform a backup, follow procedure 50096-867
