2.0 INTRODUCTION
The Ingersoll Rand Nirvana Cycling refrigerated air dryer
removes moisture, oil vapor, and other contaminants from
compressed air. These contaminants are detrimental to
pneumatically operated appliances, controls, instruments,
machinery and tools. This is accomplished by cooling the air
with a refrigeration unit to a temperature at which moisture
in the air is condensed and separated from the airstream.
The temperature the air is cooled to, normally between 36
and 40°F, is known as dew point. This dryer can be easily
installed into various pneumatic systems in which dry air is
required or desired. Please refer to Principles of Operation
for complete operating details.

7.0 PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION
7.1 INTRODUCTION
Ingersoll Rand Nirvana™ Cycling dryers remove moisture
from compressed air by cooling the air temperature to
between 36° and 40°F (2 and 4°C). This causes vapors to
condense into liquid droplets which can then be easily
removed from the air. The major systems of the dryer which
contribute to its operation are the Air System, the Moisture
Removal System, the Refrigeration System, the Thermal
Mass Circulating System and the Controls. The following
paragraphs describe each of the systems in greater detail.
7.2 AIR SYSTEM
The air system consists of the dryer components which are
in contact with the compressed air. Referring to Figure 1
and following the bold“AIR FLOW,” hot saturated air from
the compressor enters the precooler/reheater where the air
temperature is reduced prior to entering the chiller by the
cool air exiting the air/moisture separator. This precooling
allows for the use of a smaller refrigeration system. The air
then goes into the chiller section where it is further cooled
to the desired dew point by a thermal mass uid. The
temperature of the thermal mass uid is maintained by the
refrigeration circuit and controls. The air continues to the
separator where moisture is removed, thereby, allowing the
cool, dry air to return back to the precooler/reheater to be
heated by the incoming moist hot air. The air exiting the
“reheater” portion of the dryer should be approximately 15°-
20°F lower than the inlet air temperature based on standard
conditions at full rated ow.
7.3 MOISTURE REMOVAL SYSTEM
Ingersoll Rand condensate drains discharge condensed
moisture and lubricants (condensate) from compressed air
equipment. Consistent discharging of condensate from
compressed air equipment is essential for proper equipment
operation and performance. The drain valve is designed for
trouble-free and maintenance free draining of unwanted
accumulations of condensation and other foreign matter
from any collection point in a compressed air system without
the need for electricity.
The high pressure condensate drain installed on the dryer
requires the user to supply clean dry air (80 - 120 psig)
for proper operation. Refer to the instruction label on the
condensate drain for details. A small volume of air must be
displaced (vented to atmosphere) to allow for the collection
of condensate. Make certain the vent valve on the drain is
open to assure proper drain operation.
7.4 REFRIGERATION SYSTEM
The Refrigeration System consists of all the components
which handle. This is a hermetically sealed closed-loop
system. Referring to Figure 1 and following the phantom
“REFRIG FLOW,” refrigerant is shown leaving the evaporator
section where, in the process of removing heat, it is changed
from a low pressure liquid into a low pressure gas. This
gas enters the suction side of the compressor where it is
compressed into a high pressure gas. The high pressure
gas is cooled in the air cooled or water cooled condenser
section until it becomes a high pressure liquid. It then
goes through a permanent lter dryer that ensures the
refrigeration system is free of contaminants. A thermostatic
expansion valve meters the refrigerant for introduction into
the evaporator. The refrigerant pressure is reduced upon
entering the evaporator where as it evaporates, heat is
removed from the thermal mass uid.
7.5 THERMAL MASS CIRCULATING SYSTEM
The thermal mass uid in a Ingersoll Rand Nirvana™
Cycling dryer is continuously circulated in a closed pump
loop system. Referring to Figure 1 and following the dashed
“THERMAL MASS FLUID” line, the heat is removed from
the uid in the evaporator by the refrigeration system. The
thermal mass reservoir is sized to minimize refrigeration
cycles during reduced air load periods. The thermal mass
uid is pulled from the bottom of the reservoir and pumped
through the chiller, removing heat from the air and returned
to the evaporator. The pump utilized on Ingersoll Rand
Nirvana™ Cycling dryer is a maintenance-free, quiet cartridge
circulator pump similar to those used in residential water
systems. While the refrigeration system cycles on and o
based on loading conditions, the circulating pump runs
continuously to maintain ow through the chiller at all times.

7.6 CONTROLS
Ingersoll Rand Refrigerated Compressed Air Dryers are
equipped with the Microprocessor Control. This advanced
microprocessor-based controller has been engineered by
Ingersoll Rand exclusively for use with Ingersoll Rand
Compressed Air Dryers.
The Microprocessor Control cycles the refrigeration system
based on the dryer’s Chiller Temperature. A temperature
sensor samples the thermal mass temperature as it enters
the chiller exchanger. The Chiller Temperature Set point is a
user adjustable set point that is used to set the Refrigeration
Compressor O temperature. Once the Chiller Temperature
has fallen below the Chiller Temperature Set point, the
refrigeration compressor will de-energize. The Operating
Temperature Dierential is factory set at 4°F above the
Chiller Temperature Set point. Therefore, if a user adjusts the
Chiller Temperature at 36°F, the Refrigeration Compressor On
temperature will be 40°F.
In addition to the operation of the Nirvana™ Cycling dryers
as described above, the Microprocessor Control permits
monitoring of dryer parameters and enunciation of alarm
conditions.
The list below summarize the features the Microprocessor
Control:
2 X 16 Character Backlit LCD Display - Easy-to-
read display provides continuous indication of
dryer default parameter. Standard backlight
permits viewing of critical information in low light
environments.
Remote Start / Stop: Microprocessor Control-
equipped dryers oer a unique remote start / stop
feature. This feature allows the dryer to be operated
via a remote user-supplied switch.
Remote Alarm Contact: Microprocessor Control-
equipped dryers include a remote alarm contact
to provide indication of any of the dryers alarms
described later in this manual. Contact rated for
2A / 120V max.
The Microprocessor Control features three levels of access.
The default level CUSTOMER MODE permits adjustment of
dryer parameters to address seasonal variations for drain
timing and pressure dew point temperature. A protected
TECHNICIAN MODE permits access to and manipulation
of additional parameters. A password protected FACTORY
MODE is also included for use with Ingersoll Rand Service
Personnel for troubleshooting the dryer.
•
•
•
The Microprocessor Control includes a digital readout for
monitoring the discharge pressure of the refrigerant gas
exiting the compressor. This reading will vary dependent
upon condenser type as indicated below:
For air-cooled applications, condensing fans are
cycled on and o by the Microprocessor based on
the refrigerant discharge pressure. The primary fan
is cycled on at 275 psig and o at 195 psig. Should
the discharge pressure continue to climb above 335
psig, the secondary condensing fan will cycle on. As
discharge pressure is reduced below 235 psig, the
secondary fan will cycle o.
Water cooled condensers utilize a water regulating
valve (Note Figure 2). The water regulating valve
comes pre-adjusted from the factory at 250 psig
discharge pressure. To compensate for water
temperature variation, it may be necessary to adjust
the water regulating valve to maintain a 250 psig
discharge pressure. Adjustment can be done by
rotating the adjusting screw counterclockwise for an
increase in discharge pressure. For conditions where
low water temperature and/or high water pressure
are expected it is advisable to install a water pressure
regulator ahead of the condenser.

When the thermal mass (glycol) temperature in a Nirvana™
Cycling dryer reaches the factory alarm set point, after an
alarm delay, the alarm will be activated. This alarm condition
may not necessarily damage the dryer when subjected to
long-term exposure. It may, however, have a signicant
impact on downstream processes and thus should be
investigated upon detection. Note that this alarm will not
shut down the dryer. This alarm will activate the remote
alarm contact and reset automatically once the alarm
condition is rectied.

LOW TEMPERATURE SAFETY ALARM (LOWTEMP ALARM)
If the dryer chiller temperature falls to or below the factory
set point and remains at or below this set point for the
factory delay time, the alarm routine will activate. This alarm
condition may cause damage to the dryer when subjected
to continuous or long-term exposure. Note that this alarm
will shut down the dryer after a response time delay. This
alarm will activate the remote alarm contact and reset
automatically once the alarm condition is rectied.
HIGH PRESSURE CUTOUT ALARM (HPCO ALARM)
If the discharge pressure of the refrigerant is determined
to be above the set point, the alarm routine will activate.
This alarm condition may cause damage to the dryer when
subjected to continuous or long-term exposure. Note that
this alarm will shut down the dryer after a response time
delay. The operator must depress the RESET button in order
to clear the alarm and restart the refrigeration system.
LOW PRESSURE CUTOUT ALARM (LO PRESS CO)
If the suction pressure of the refrigerant is determined to be
below the set point of the LPCO alarm, the Microprocessor
Control alarm routine will activate. This alarm condition may
cause damage to the dryer when subjected to continuous or
long-term exposure. Note that once cleared, the compressor
will restart automatically. However, if two successive
lowpressure conditions are determined, this alarm will shut
down the dryer after a response time delay and will display
the alarm condition. The operator must depress the RESET
button in order to reinstate the compressor.

TABLE 1
7.6.6 START MODES
Ingersoll Rand dryers are capable of starting in one of
three start modes. Note that to protect the refrigeration
compressor from repeated rapid starts, the Microprocessor
Control is equipped with an an anti-short cycle (ASC) delay.
The ASC delay will countdown from the factory set point.
Only after the ASC delay has timed out will the refrigeration
system operate. Below are brief descriptions of these various
start modes.
7.6.6.1 Manual Mode
Ingersoll Rand dryers are shipped from the factory in the
Manual Mode. After power is supplied to the dryer, the user
will be presented with the ASC delay, followed by the“PRESS
ON BUTTON” display. After the ASC delay has timed out, the
dryer will only start once the ON button is depressed. In this
conguration, to restart the dryer, the user must manually
depress the ON button on the dryer’s control panel.
7.6.6.2 Auto Restart Mode
After power is applied to the dryer, and once an anti-short
cycle delay has timed out, the dryer will start automatically.
In addition, this mode of operation allows manual control
of the dryer via the ON & OFF pushbuttons. This is useful
for applications where automatic restarting of the dryer is
desired after a power failure has occurred.
7.6.6.3 Remote Automatic Mode
This mode of operation allows the user to control the
dryer remotely and requires the installation of a customer-
supplied contact and grounded 24V power supply. With
power applied to the dryer and once the anti-short cycle
delay has timed out, the dryer will start automatically once
the switch is closed. In addition, this mode of operation
allows manual control of the dryer via the ON & OFF
pushbuttons.

120.26A D4290NCHPW400F Installation Operation and Maintenance Manual

ingersollrandproducts.com 13
8.0 INSTALLATION AND INITIAL STARTUP
8.1 LOCATION AND MOUNTING
The dryer should not be located in an area where ambient
temperature is likely to exceed 113°F (45°C) or be less
than 50°F (10°C). The dryer must be located in an area
that provides sucient clearance from walls and other
adjoining equipment to allow easy access for servicing
and maintenance requirements. A minimum of 18 inches is
required to allow free ow of air to the condenser inlet.
If loads uctuate widely, the dryer should be positioned
ahead of the receiver and sucient storage capacity
downstream is necessary to prevent excessive air ow
through the dryer.
When installed after any compressor that causes signicant
vibration or air pulsation, such as reciprocating compressors,
proper vibration isolation and pulsation dampening devices
should be added to protect the dryer.
NOTICE
Failure to comply to the above instructions may
result in equipment malfunction and will void
warranty.
NOTICE
Always use a backup wrench when making any
threaded connection to the dryer. Failure to use a
backup wrench may result in damaged tubing and
components internal to the cabinet.
8.2 PIPING AND VALVES
Install piping, ttings and accessories as required for specic
site conditions and requirements. Figure 3 indicates a typical
piping arrangement for a refrigerated dryer, including dryer
and lter bypasses. This gure can be used as a guide for
valve and accessory placement in the system.
A high-pressure condensate drain is preinstalled at the
factory. These drains require the user to provide clean, dry
air (80 psig - 120 psig) for proper operation. Connect clean,
dry air source to 1/8” NPT port as indicated on condensate
drain instruction label. Assure needle vent valve is open to
allow for displacement of air with condensate in reservoir.
8.3 FILTRATION
To protect the air dryer from gross contamination associated
with compressor oil and debris and ensure maximum dryer
performance, a pre-lter is recommended. Pre-lters and
post-lters sized to your drying application can be provided
by Ingersoll Rand and are available factory installed. Call
your local distributor to select the lter that best suits
your ltration requirements. In addition to air ltration,
condensate discharge oil/water separators are also available
to address stringent EPA regulations.
8.4 ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATIONS
In many applications, high pressure dryers are a component
of air systems that use high-pressure, oil-free compressors.
These compressors can generate condensate that is
acidic. Such acidic condensate by itself is not considered
problematic for the dryer. However, in environments where
the air compressor is ingesting certain airborne chemicals,
such as the o-gassing from a thermal processing or blow
molding operation, the acidic condensate, when mixed with
the resulting contaminants, can result in a strong organic
acid that can be detrimental to the dryer’s internal surfaces.
This condition is characterized by acidic condensate
(ph below 5.0), condensate with an acrid odor and / or
condensate with a distinct yellow color. Should any of these
conditions be observed, it is recommended that the air
source for the air compressor(s) be relocated such that intake
air for the air compressors is derived from outside the facility.

8.5 ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
Equipment is available in various electrical congurations.
All customer connections can be made at the terminal
connections located in the customer electrical connection
box on the rear of the dryer. (Refer to General Arrangement
and appropriate Wiring Diagrams.)
A suitable fused disconnect switch or circuit breaker, in
accordance with national and local code requirements, is
recommended for all Ingersoll Rand equipment. Refer
to the Engineering Specications Section for voltage
requirements and load.
CAUTION
Never wire directly or connect any additional wires to
the compressor junction box. This will cause severe
system malfunction.
8.5.1 START SETTINGS
Ingersoll Rand dryers can be congured for three variations
of start modes: Manual Mode, Automatic Mode and Remote
Mode. Refer to Section 10 for instructions on how to change
the dryer’s start settings. The instructions below describe the
methods to congure the dryer for a particular Start Mode.
A) Manual Mode (Factory Default) - No modication
required to operate dryer in Manual Mode. Once
power is applied, dryer can be started or stopped by
depressing the local ON / OFF pushbuttons located
on the front panel.
B) Auto Restart Mode - Auto Restart Mode permits the
dryer to start after a brief delay once power is applied
to the dryer. Note that the dryer’s touch pad will still
aect dryer operation. Depressing the OFF button
will de-energize the refrigeration compressor and all
other electrical components. After the OFF button has
been depressed, the user must depress the ON button
to permit the dryer to operate.
C) Remote Mode - Remote Mode allows the dryer to be
turned ON or OFF via a remote switch supplied by
the customer. This mode will work regardless of the
setting for Auto Restart. The dryer must be powered
on for this feature to take eect. To enable this
feature:
Install N.O. remote switch as indicated on the
appropriate wiring diagram.
Customer-supplied contact should be rated at 1A
at 24V. To operate dryer, close switch or contact and
allow dryer to start after an initial delay. The local On
/ OFF pushbuttons may also be used at any time after
contact closure.

8.6 INITIAL START-UP
NOTICE
For water cooled models, the water valve must be
manually opened to ensure that the condenser is
full of water prior to start-up.
CAUTION
Allow 8 hours of warm-up time for the crankcase
heater prior to start up. Crankcase heater is
connected directly to the incoming power and is
energized at all times.
8.6.1 START- UP SEQUENCE
Apply power to dryer. LCD Panel will illuminate. The
Anti-Short Cycle delay will commence counting
down. Remaining time on the Crankcase heater will
also countdown.
NOTICE
After installation or a prolonged shutdown, start
the dryer with no air load (no air ow). This enables
the dryer to reach its proper operating temperature
in the shortest time possible (typically within 30
minutes for Nirvana™ Cycling dryers).
Start Dryer, using one of the following methods,
depending on Start Mode setting:
Manual Mode - Press the ON pushbutton.
Auto Restart Mode - No additional action required
Remote Automatic Mode - Close the remote contact.
•
•
For Nirvana™ Cycling dryers, the circulating pump
will be energized and will run continuously. Provided
the CHILLER TEMPERATURE is greater than the
Compressor O Set point plus 4° F and the anti-
short cycle delay and crankcase heater delay have
timed out, the refrigeration system will energize. As
the system operates and thermal mass temperature
drops, the suction pressure will be lowered to
between 40 and 65 psig.
After the alarm delay, provided the Chiller Temperature is
greater than the HIGH TEMPERATURE ALARM set point, the
dryer will go into HIGH TEMPERATURE ALARM. The LCD panel
will indicate the alarm and the refrigeration system will
continue to operate. Pressing the SELECT DISPLAY button
will permit viewing of the available dryer parameters during
this alarm condition. Note that the alarm condition screen
will reappear after approximately 30 seconds until the alarm
condition is cleared.
The CHILLER TEMPERATURE will gradually drop as indicated
on the display. Once the temperature falls below the
HIGH TEMPERATURE ALARM set point, the alarm will reset
and the LCD panel will return to its default display. After
the refrigeration system shuts o, air ow may be slowly
introduced to the dryer.
NOTICE
If power is removed from the dryer for less than
two hours, the crackcase heater delay will be
automatically bypassed. If, however, the power is
removed from the dryer for more than two hours,
the full crankcase heater delay must be observed.

9.0 SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE
9.1 INTRODUCTION
Ingersoll Rand Nirvana™ Cycling refrigerated air dryers
require little maintenance. These dryers utilize hermetically
sealed compressors which do not require any lubrication.
Fan motors require lubrication at both oil ports every
six months. Ingersoll Rand recommends component
inspection and service at regular intervals to obtain
maximum performance from your dryer.
9.2 REFRIGERANT CONDENSER
For standard dryers, regular inspection and cleaning of the
condenser is recommended. Ingersoll Rand dryers may
be equipped with an optional ambient air lter designed
to protect the condenser from dirt and debris that can
accumulate on the condenser. For proper operation with
this option, it is imperative that this lter be inspected and
cleaned on a regular basis. Annual replacement of the lter is
recommended.
For applications where excessive dirt, dust or debris is
encountered, more frequent inspection and cleaning may be
required.
9.3 PRE-FILTERS AND POST-FILTERS
WARNING
Depressurize the system before disassembling
lters. Failure to do so may result in injury or death.
Filter elements should be changed every 6 months to 1
year. Change carbon elements when hydrocarbons are rst
detected downstream or every six months, whichever comes
rst.
Certain lters contain multiple elements. When replacing
lter elements, all elements should be replaced
simultaneously. Mixing new and old elements can result in
reduced air quality.
