4 Installation and Commissioning

4.1 General

The module should be installed, downstream of a 'wet' air receiver. Additional condensate management equipment may be installed to meet both
the specification and local environmental requirements.

4.1.1 Locating the Equipment

The equipment should be located indoors in an environment that protects it from direct sunlight, moisture, and dust. Changes in temperature,
humidity, and airborne pollution will affect the environment in which the equipment is operating and may impair the safety and operation. It is the
customers' responsibility to ensure that the environmental conditions specified for the equipment are maintained.

4.1.2 Space Requirements

The equipment should be mounted on a flat surface capable of supporting its own weight plus the weight of all ancillary parts. The minimum
footprint requirements are specified below, however there must be adequate space around the equipment to allow airflow and access for
maintenance purposes and lifting equipment. A minimum spacing of approximately 500mm (20 ins) is recommended around all sides of the
modules and 1000m (39.4 ins) above it.
Do Not position the equipment so that it is difficult to operate or disconnect from the electrical supply.

4.2 Mechanical Installation

4.2.1 General Requirements

Ensure that each filter condensate drain is suitably piped away and any
effluent is disposed of in accordance with local regulations.
It is important to ensure that all piping materials are suitable for breathing
air applications, clean and debris free. The diameter of the pipes must be
sufficient to allow unrestricted inlet air supply to the equipment and outlet
air supply to the application.
When routing the pipes ensure that they are adequately supported to
prevent damage and leaks in the system.
All components used within the system must be rated to at least the
maximum operating pressure of the equipment. It is recommended that
the system be protected with suitably rated pressure relief valves.

4.2.2 Securing the Dryer

Once positioned, the equipment may be secured to the floor using M12
bolts. Four mounting holes are provided in the base of each dryer (BA-
DME012 - 040) and on the base of the skid frame (BA-DME050 - 080).

4.2.3 Piping Connections

Remove the protective dust covers from the inlet and outlet ports and
connect the system piping. Isolation valves should be fitted to both ports
to allow the module to be isolated during maintenance.

4.2.4 Purge Air Flow

The purge air flow is factory set for 6 bar g (87 psig) minimum system
pressure. Should the minimum supply pressure be higher or lower than
this figure the air flow must be reset in order to maintain the specified
dewpoint.
The purge should only be set by Parker domnick hunter approved
service personnel.
