the notes regarding the intended use on page(10)
Warranty notes
In the following cases, the warranty shall be void:
◊ If aggressive media in the compressed air and in the environment cause corrosion damage
and functional faults on the dryer.
◊ If the dryer is used without prior approval and conrmation in writing by the manufactur-
er for purposes other than those specied in these operating instructions or contractually
agreed.
◊ If preset parameters (e. g. on the control system etc.) are changed without prior approval
and conrmation in writing by the manufacturer.
◊ If the dryer is transported or stored incorrectly.
◊ If the dryer is sited and installed incorrectly.

For your own safety
The dryer has been built in accordance with the state of the art and the recognized technical
safety regulations. Nevertheless, there is a risk of personal injury and damage to property
when the dryer is used, if:
◊ it is operated by non-qualied personnel,
◊ not used within its intended design specications,
◊ is repaired or maintained incorrectly.
Note:
For your own safety and to prevent machine damage, please note the informa-
tion and safety notes in these operating instructions when working with the
dryer.

Danger zones at the dryer
1,6 Risk of injury from hot vessel and piping
surfaces 4Risk of injury by suddenly escaping gas
2Risk of injury by high voltage 5Risks of injury by hot regeneration gas ow
3Risk of injury from crushing by shaft during
switching 7Risk of injury by blocked silencer
Symbol Danger zone
Excess pressure warning
The entire dryer is under pressure. Air that is suddenly released through expansion
and relief valves can lead to serious injury.
Hot surfaces
During operation, certain surfaces of the dryer reach temperatures above 120 °C.
At insulated dryers, screw connections might protrude from the insulation.
Voltage
Various parts of the dryer are live. These components may only be connected,
opened and serviced by authorised technical personnel.
Risk of slipping
During the emptying and lling of the vessels, there is a risk of injury from slipping
on spilt desiccant.
Risk of crushing
At the universal shaft and the drives, there is a risk of injury from crushing during
the switching from absorption to regeneration.

Intended use of the dryer
The dryer is exclusively intended for drying compressed air. Depending on dened input
conditions, it dries compressed air for industrial use.
The dryer is designed for compressed air, which is free from aggressive water, oil, and solid
matter constituents.
Note:
Never operate the dryer without upstream filter. For this reason, the operator
must install an appropriate upstream filter (degree of filtration < 0.01 μm, resi-
dual oil contents < 0.001 mg/m³).
We recommend that you install an additional downstream filter to protect the
downstream compressed air network against desiccant residues.
Suitable filter solutions can be obtained from the manufacturer.
As standard, the dryer is intended to be sited within a building and protected against the we-
ather. When it is sited in the open air (option), the instructions on page 18 must be complied
with.
The dryer may be operated only in accordance with the data on the type plate and in accor-
dance with the contractual conditions.
Suspected misuse
The dryer must not be misused as a climbing aid! Pipes, valves, and similar ttings have not
been designed for such loads. They could fracture, tear off, or become damaged in another
way.
General safety notes
For your own safety, when carrying out any work on the dryer comply with all
applicable national safety regulations!
Personnel qualification
Only authorized and qualied specialist personnel may be tasked with the work on the dryer
described in these operating instructions. The electropneumatic switch cabinet in particular
must be opened and serviced by an instructed trained electrician only..
Conversions and modifications
Without prior approval by the manufacturer, no conversions and modications must be made
to the dryer! Any non-approved modications may restrict the operational safety of the dryer
and cause damage to property or personal injury.
Notes on desiccant handling
The used desiccant is perfectly safe when new. Increased dust formation can nevertheless
occur when desiccant is lled into or removed from a vessel . Therefore, heed the following
hints:
◊ Wear a dust mask and eye protection when lling desiccant into the vessels!
◊ Collect spilt desiccant immediately! There is a risk of injury from slipping on spilt desiccant!
Note:
For information on how to dispose of used desiccant refer to page 12.
