The air is passed through three oil/water separators from the second, third, and final stages, respectively.
The drawn-off oil/water is maintained in the separator blocks until the condensate drain is activated.
Power is momentarily interrupted by the condensate drain switch and allows the piston seal to release the second stage
air pressure to the atmosphere. The pressure release allows the second, third, and final condensate valve block seats to
lift and allows the oil/water condensate to vent through the condensate drain valves, past the drain valve seats and back
to the drain passage in the lower condensate block, and vents directly to the atmosphere.
The condensate heater is used in cold weather operations to prevent condensate from the second, third, and final stages
from freezing. The use of the condensate heater does not have to be below 32°F (0°C) due to relative humidity and the
fast-moving air within the separator block. Any slow draining or visible freezing of the condensate during colder weather
may warrant the use of the condensate heater. The condensate heater draws 200 watts of power so it should only be
turned on after the unit is operational.
CAUTION
The diesel engine and compressor are built to metric standard measurement. The frame and mounting
equipment are manufactured using English standard sizes. Do not use improper tool sizes in affecting
maintenance or repairs. USE THE RIGHT TOOL FOR THE RIGHT JOB.
