Replace Filter Element

Turn off the air supply.

Let the system depressurize until the pressure gauge reads 0 psi.

Unscrew the bleed screw (F) slowly to ensure that the filter is depressurized.

Turn the filter bowl (E) counter- clockwise and pull the bowl from the filter housing

(A).

Unscrew the blue knob (D).

Remove the old filter element (C).

Clean the sieve (B) and the filter house, if necessary.

Note: A periodic check of the automatic drains is neccesary to ensure the

membrane life. To verify float is functioning correctly, open the filter bowl

by turning one quarter turn counter-clockwise. Inspect for water or oil, an

inactive float will be submerged, an active float will not. If float is found to

be inactive follow cleaning procedure below or if necesary replace with part

Clean Automatic Drain

(C).

Clean the parts with soap and water. Make sure that the needle bore is open

and clean.

Assemble the parts in the opposite direction. Make sure that the parts are dry

before reassembly.

Automatic Pressure Switch Setting

The automatic pressure switch is factory pre-set to shut off shop air consumption at 120 psi. This switch will then

automatically reset when the N

Pressure inside the tank drops by approximately 25 psi.

If your application requires an inlet pressure of 100 - 119 psi, an adjustment to the automatic pressure switch is possible.
