INSTALLATION
1. Purge downstream air line of oil.
2. Install the unit with the air flowing in the direction indicated by the arrow on
the body and/or the DP2 indicator.
3. A drain line with 1/2" NPT connection may be attached to the drain port if
desired. (The optional X01-04-000 or X01-04-M00 external drain requires
a 1/8" NPT connection). Drain line should be 1/4" tubing or larger, as short
as possible, and crimp free.
4. Maximum pressure rating is 150 psig (10.3 bar) for units with DP2, 200
psig (13.7 bar) for units with DP3, and 200 psig (13.7 bar) for units without
DP2 or DP3. Temperature range is 32°F to 150°F (0°C to 65.5°C).
5. Install unit in a vertical position.
6. Do not use this unit on any application where the pressure drop will
exceed 20 psi. Locating the unit downstream from a quick-opening valve,
for example, could cause a momentary drop in excess of 20 psi.
MAINTENANCE
1. TO CLEAN OR REPLACE FILTER ELEMENT. Shut off air supply and
reduce pressure in the unit to zero, remove the 8 screws from the filter
housing, unscrew the filter support, and remove filter element.
A. Clean baffles by blowing off with air blow gun. Install new element and
install element support.Torque element support to 90 in. lbs. ± 20 in. lbs.
Element should be cleaned/replaced when the DP2 pressure indicator is
completely red or when the DP3 reads 7 psi (0.5 bar).
2. IF THE UNIT HAS A MANUAL DRAIN, DRAIN THE UNIT ONCE EVERY 8
HOURS MINIMUM. If the unit is equipped with an external automatic drain
clean the screen on top of the drain. Clean screen by blowing it off with an
air blow gun.
3. When the bowl becomes dirty, clean by wiping with a dry, clean cloth.
4. Before placing the unit in service, make sure that the bowl is properly
reinstalled, and securely bolted in place.

CAUTION
Polycarbonate bowls, being transparent and tough, are ideal for use with Filters
and Lubricators. They are suitable for use in normal industrial environments,
but should not be located in areas where they could be subjected to direct
sunlight, an impact blow, nor temperatures outside of the rated range. As with
most plastics, some chemicals can cause damage. Polycarbonate bowls should
not be exposed to chlorinated hydrocarbons, ketones, esters and certain alcohols.
They should not be used in air systems where compressors are lubricated with
fire-resistant fluids such as phosphate ester and di-ester types.
Metal bowls are recommended where ambient and/or media conditions are
not compatible with polycarbonate bowls. Metal bowls resist the action of
most such solvents, but should not be used where strong acids or bases are
present or in salt laden atmospheres. Consult the factory for specific
recommendations where these conditions exist.
TO CLEAN POLYCARBONATE BOWLS USE MILD SOAP AND WATER
ONLY! DO NOT use cleansing agents such as acetone, benzene, carbon
tetrachloride, gasoline, toluene, etc., which are damaging to this plastic.
Bowl guards are recommended for added protection of polycarbonate bowls
where chemical attack may occur.
