INSTALLATION
Inspect the aftercooler package upon receipt for any damage that may have occurred during shipment.
Each aftercooler package is supplied with a User Manual and general arrangement drawing.
The initial change of oil is installed in the lubricator.
If placed in storage, store in a location protected from the environment. If stored outside, it is recommended that the
aftercooler package be underneath a shelter and be shrink wrapped or crated to protect against rain. The aftercooler
package should not be stored in a location exposed to freezing temperatures or direct sunlight. If the package is taken
out of operation and remains in an area exposed to freezing temperatures, all drains must be emptied. All plugs and
ange covers should remain in place until the aftercooler package is ready to be installed.
The package should be moved using a pallet jack or fork truck. Use caution while moving the equipment. The after-
cooler package is equipped with lifting lugs.
Install in an area with an ambient temperature range of 40°F to 105°F when ready for operation. The area should be
well lit and ventilated. It is recommended to leave a minimum of four feet around all sides of the aftercooler package for
maintenance. Ensure that the package is stable and properly secured on a vibration free oor before operation. Do not
block the aftercooler. Air must be allowed to freely enter the aftercooler for proper operation.
Optional heat trace and freeze protection is required for operation in temperatures below 40ºF. Power must be sup-
plied for the heat trace to function.
There are several connection points on the aftercooler package. Make sure each connection is made prior to startup.
1. Air in connection – Will be marked on the aftercooler package with a tag. Use piping suitable for the
pressure and temperature class.
2. Air out connection – Will be marked on the aftercooler package with a tag. Use piping suitable for the
pressure and temperature class. There are several air out connections of different line sizes.
3. Drain connections – Located at the skid edge and labeled. Drain discharge is under pressure
equal to the system and must use piping suitable for the pressure and temperature class if piped to
another location. Proper maintenance of lters is required.
