Installation
1. Before installing air line components, blow out the
pipe line to remove debris. Be sure air to the regulator is clean. Erratic operation or loss of regulation is
usually caused by dirt in the regulator.
2. Install the Air Drying System as close as possible to
the equipment it serves.
Shop Air Piping Layout
3. Install air shut-off valve 288798 upstream from the
air system to isolate it for service.
4. Install system so air flows through filters in the direction noted on top of filter.
5. A minimum 1/2” npt piping is recommended. Avoid
using too many fittings, couplings, etc., which will
restrict air flow.
