The connection to the mains, to be carried out by qualified personnel, and the safety systems must
comply with local rules and laws.
Before connecting the unit to the electric power, verify that the voltage and the frequency available on the
mains correspond to the data reported on the data plate of the dryer. In terms of voltage, a ±5% tolerance is
allowed.
The dryers TDRY 6-80 come with a mains connecting cable already installed and ending with a VDE 16A -
Shucko plug; while the dryers TDRY 105-168 come with an electric box for the connection to the mains.
The mains socket must be provided with a mains magneto-thermal differential breaker (I∆n=0.3A),
adjusted on the basis of the consumption of the dryer (see the nominal values on the data plate of the
dryer).
The cross section of the power supply cables must comply with the consumption of the dryer, while keeping
into account also the ambient temperature, the conditions of the mains installation, the length of the cables,
and the requirements enforced by the local Power Provider.
It is mandatory to ensure the connection to the ground terminal.
Don't use adapters on the mains socket.
If necessary, have the plug replaced by qualified personnel.
The condensate is discharged at the same pressure of the air entering the dryer.
Never point the condensate drain jet towards anybody.
The dryer comes already fitted with tubing in flexible plastics (6 mm or 10 mm diameter and 1500 mm long)
for the connection to the collection plant.
The condensate drain occurs through a solenoid valve protected with a mechanical strainer. In order to
avoid clogging of the solenoid valve, the condensate coming from the separator is previously filtered, then
discharged. The solenoid valve coil is operated by electronic instrument (dryer controller).
If an electric strainer is installed, the intervention times are determined by the internal capacitive sensor
(see specific paragraph).
Connect and properly fasten the condensate drain to a collecting plant or container.
The drain cannot be connected to pressurised systems.
Don't dispose the condensate in the environment.
The condensate collected in the dryer contains oil particles released in the air by the compressor.
Dispose the condensate in compliance with the local rules.
We suggest to install a water-oil separator where to convey all the condensate drain coming from
compressors, dryers, tanks, filters, etc.
Verify that the operating parameters match with the nominal values reported on the data plate of the
dryer (voltage, frequency, air pressure, air temperature, ambient temperature, etc.).
Before delivery, each dryer is submitted to accurate tests and controlled simulating real operating
conditions. Nevertheless, the unit could be damaged during transportation. We therefore suggest to check
the integrity of the dryer upon arrival and to keep it under control during the first hours of operation.
The start-up must be performed by qualified personnel.
It's mandatory that the engineer in charge adopt safety operational conditions complying with the
local safety and accident prevention requirements.
The same engineer will be responsible for the proper and safe operation of the dryer.
Never operate the dryer if the panels are not in place.
