2. GENERAL DESCRIPTION

This Compressor Aftercooler has been designed to cool compressed air and re-

move water droplets prior to the air entering a GMP Tornado Cable Blowing Ma-

chine.

The Cooler unit is horizontally mounted on a tubular steel frame and is complete

with pneumatic wheels and transit handle for easy maneuverability.

An air motor driven fan forces cooling air through the Compressor Aftercooler

and reduces the temperature of the compressed air. The air motor is driven by

compressed air taken from the down stream side of the water separator and

passes through a filter-regulator-

lubricator assembly prior to entering the

air motor.

The Compressor Aftercooler is fitted

with cam action quick release air hose

couplings. Waste oil/water mixtures are

collected in a frame mounted drain can

for environmentally acceptable disposal.

The water separator protector bar dou-

bles as a carrying handle to assist with

moving the aftercooler over very soft ter-

rain or loading it into a vehicle.

GENERAL PNEUMATIC SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

The GMP Compressor Aftercooler is a pneumatic device, using pressurized air

to project cable at high velocities. Please observe the following precautions

when operating the aftercooler: -

1) Compressed air can cause flying debris. This could cause personal injury. Al-

ways wear personal protective equipment.

2) Do not disconnect air hoses when under pressure.

3) Only authorized, fully trained personnel should operate the air compressor.
