However, when the air dryer is initially powered on, the MLT begins a startup sequence of four tensecond cycle intervals, and when completed, MLT begins cycling every two minutes. An LED on the MLT will be "on" during energized (charge) cycle and "off" during de-energized (regeneration) cycle. When LED is on, the left desiccant cartridge receives wet air and the right desiccant cartridge regenerates. After two minutes MLT (dryer) switches, LED is off as left canister now begins regeneration process and right desiccant cartridge receives wet air. A light flow of air from the desiccant cartridge through dryer’s exhaust port is normal during regeneration cycle. There should be no venting of air from desiccant cartridge when receiving wet air. When an SFD cycles, there will be a momentary burst of air from one SFD exhaust port (muffler). This is normal and will occur each time dryer cycles. Four cartridge MLT systems will have two cartridges regenerating one from each dryer unit, e.g., cartridges 1, 3 charge cycle, cartridges 2, 4 regeneration cycle 1. SFD dryer systems must be mounted with the exhaust ports positioned downward and desiccant cartridges in upright position 2. Power source: 120 Volt AC (grounded) surge protected (recommended) electric receptacle required for MLT and PLC dryer systems 3. Mount SFD down stream of air compressor reservoir 4. Mount SFD dryer with sufficient space around unit(s) to facilitate service and to provide visual access for periodic inspection allowing at least a 2" clearance above desiccant cartridges for removal 5. Installing a series of lines and shut-off valves in conjunction with installation of SFD dryer systems provides a by-pass system providing the ability to maintain operation of air system, when servicing unit 40 Max SFD Dryer Systems w/ MLT Mounting 1. Determine proper location for SFD as described in “General Mounting Instructions” pg. 7 2. Universal mounting brackets may be inverted to adapt for mounting units as required 3. Mount base assembly at chosen location making certain a minimum 2" clearance above desiccant cartridges for future service. Mark mounting hole locations and attach SFD to mounting location with a minimum of two (2) 3/8” bolts, lock washers and nuts 4. Use thread sealant on air line fittings to prevent air leaks a. Connect air line coming from compressor reservoir to SFD inlet port b. Connect SFD outlet port to air system 5. Apply an anti-seize (included with dryer) onto muffler threads and install muffler into each exhaust port of SFD 6. Plug-in MLT power cord to 110 -120 Volt AC grounded receptacle (surge protected recommended) REMINDER: 12 & 24 VDC MLT’s device are polarity sensitive.

Observe dryer operation for proper function as described in SFD OPERATION/CYCLE section Optional Manifold kits for MLT 619780 – 4 canister dryer systems 619785 – 6 canister dryer systems 9 Programmable Logic Control (PLC) 120 thru 800 Programmable Logic Control (PLC) manages regeneration cycles by energizing and de-energizing air control valves within PLC at 45-second intervals. When PLC is initially powered on, it begins a startup sequence cycling each dryer one time at five-second intervals then continues to cycle dryers at 45-second cycle intervals. During operation, a light flow of air from ONE exhaust port (muffler) is normal as this represents regeneration cycle of desiccant. The air flow will switch from one exhaust port (muffler) to the next one approximately 45 seconds in conjunction with PLC cycles. Example: 120 cfm – 1 cartridge regenerates every 45 seconds as three cartridges continue to receive wet air. Multiple row dryer systems will regenerate one cartridge from each row e.g., cartridge 1 row 1 cartridge 1 row 2, etc. Dryer cycles produce a momentary burst of air from one SFD exhaust port (muffler). This is normal and will occur each time SFD cycles. Mounting 1. Determine proper location for SFD as described in “General Mounting Instructions pg 7” 2.

Check air line fittings for leaks and repair as necessary 9. Observe dryer operation for proper function as described above in “Pneumatically Controlled” Pneumatically Controlled (PC) 40 thru 200 CFM SFD Dryer Systems Pneumatic Control (PC) manages regeneration cycles by metering a measured air flow through pneumatic manifold at approximately 60 second intervals– no electrical requirements. Example: 120 cfm – 1 cartridge regenerates every 60 seconds as three cartridges continue to receive wet air. During operation, a light flow of air from ONE exhaust port (muffler) is normal as this represents regeneration cycle of desiccant. The air flow will switch from one exhaust port (muffler) to the next one approximately 60 seconds in conjunction with pneumatic manifold cycles. Dryer cycles produce a momentary burst of air from one SFD exhaust port (muffler). This is normal and will occur each time SFD cycles. Mounting 1.

However, when the air dryer is initially powered on, the MLT begins a startup sequence of four ten-second cycle intervals, and when completed, MLT begins cycling every two minutes. An LED on the MLT will be "on" during energized (charge) cycle and "off" during de-energized (regeneration) cycle. When LED is on, the left desiccant cartridge receives wet air and the right desiccant cartridge regenerates. After two minutes MLT (dryer) switches, LED is off as left canister now begins regeneration process and right desiccant cartridge receives wet air. A light flow of air from the desiccant cartridge through dryer’s exhaust port is normal during regeneration cycle. There should be no venting of air from desiccant cartridge when receiving wet air. When an SFD cycles, there will be a momentary burst of air from one SFD exhaust port (muffler). This is normal and will occur each time dryer cycles. Four cartridge MLT systems will have two cartridges regenerating one from each dryer unit, e.g., cartridges 1, 3 charge cycle, cartridges 2, 4 regeneration cycle Programmable Control Box (PLC) controls regeneration cycles by energizing and de-energizing air control valves at 45-second intervals. A flow rate of approximately 3.5 cfm (99.1 lpm) air from ONE exhaust port (muffler) per dryer row occurs as normal regeneration air flow for desiccant bed drying. This air flow will alter in 45 second intervals from one exhaust port(s) to other in conjunction with PLC cycles. With dryer cycles (switching from one cartridge to other), a momentary burst of air expels from one exhaust port as remaining cartridges continue to receives wet contaminated air. This short burst of air is normal occurring each time dryer cycles. Pneumatically Controlled (PC) SFD dryer systems regenerate by energizing and de-energizing air control valves at approximately one (1)-min intervals. A continuous flow rate of approximately 3.5 cfm (99.1 lpm) air from ONE exhaust port (muffler) per dryer row occurs as normal regeneration air flow for desiccant bed drying. This air flow will alter in 60-second intervals from one exhaust port(s) to other in Pneumatic Controller (PC) conjunction with Pneumatic cycles. When dryer cycles (switching #619985 Shown from one cartridge to other) a short burst of air expels from one exhaust port as remaining cartridges continue to receive wet contaminated air. This short burst of air is normal occurring each time dryer cycles. 23 Troubleshooting SFD Dryer Systems Heavy air flow from exhaust ports (all models) NOTE: Light air flow of 1.6 cfm from either exhaust port (muffler) is normal as this represents the regeneration cycle Possible Cause Remedy Clean cavities and replace valve assemblies included in service kit Worn inlet check valves (O-rings) Item A,D Inlet Valve O- rings Retainer Inlet Location Worn purge valve or dirt/foreign material stuck in purge valve Clean cavities and replace purge valve assemblies included within service kit A,D Purge Valve O- rings Seal Retainer Purge Location Regeneration valve not closing Clean cavities and replace regeneration valve assemblies within service kit C Prior to serial number #xxxxxx all regeneration valves white Regeneration Valves (#619708) Red = .016" (max 27 cfm) (#619716 ) Black = .030" (max 40 cfm) (#619730) White = .060" (max 400 cfm) (#619731) Blue = .090" (max 800 cfm) 24 Troubleshooting SFD Dryer Systems cont’d Dryer will not cycle (switch) every two minutes w/Micro Logic Timer Possible Cause Micro logic timer (MLT) malfunctioning Remedy Kit ID's Test: Unplug timer, manually cycle dryer by turning brass screw several times in valve assembly to 2 o’clock (1/4 turn right) and back to 12 o’clock position.

Installation • Disconnect air line from outlet port of air dryer • Disconnect two (2) ¼” air lines from air control valve located on back of control valve • Remove MLT from air control valve and set aside for later installation • Remove eight (8) bolts fastening manifold to adaptor castings • Remove manifold assembly from adaptor castings and discard • Lubricate new O-rings and install onto manifold bosses of new manifold/valve assembly • Position manifold/valve assembly onto adaptor castings ensuring O-rings are properly positioned in bores REMINDER: Make sure valves & springs remain in position in both bores of adaptor castings • Reinstall eight (8) bolts and tighten to 45-65 in. lbs. torque • Reinstall MLT, previously removed, onto control valve of new assembly • Reconnect two (2) ¼” air lines previously removed to air control valve • Connect open power lead to appropriate 120 Volt AC power source controlling compressor motor low pressure “On” and high pressure “Off” cycles • Re-connect air line to dryer outlet port • Check all connects for air leaks Troubleshooting Regeneration Cutoff Solenoid (RCS) Regeneration Cutoff Solenoid (RCS) manages regeneration purge cut off by energizing and de-energizing the air control valve in unison with compressor’s pressure control switch. When air compressor electric motor runs (pumping), the RCS allows pilot air to flow to air control valve located under manifold. During compressor “on” time, the air dryer pneumatically cycles every two minutes with Micro Logic Timer (MLT). When air compressor reaches cut off pressure, the electrical power to RCS will be off, which allows air control valve to switch, cutting off pilot signal to air control valve located under manifold. The MLT continues to cycle electrically, however, with pilot air removed from air control valve, dryer no longer 49 cycles pneumatically thereby cutting of continuous purge flow during compressor “off” or non-pumping cycle. When an SFD cycles, there will be a momentary burst of air from one SFD exhaust port (muffler). This is normal and will occur each time dryer cycles.

The term derived from the appearance of condensate under normal conditions oily condensate should just be cloudy, like a small amount of milk in a bucket of water. When a lubricated compressor begins to fail, then the condensate becomes thick and sticky, in fact almost identical in appearance to term it has been given Membrane dryer Reduce dew point by passing compressed air through a bundle of hollow membrane fibers; water vapor and a portion of the compressed air then permeate the membrane walls and vent to atmosphere Micron Micrometer or one millionth of a meter; micron is sometimes represented in filtration by the Greek letter µ (mu) A micron is 0 000039" Contaminate particles are measured by micron size and count Micron rating A measurement applied to filters or filter media to indicate removal of particle size at which suspended solids above that size Micro Logic Timer An electronic timer and coil assembly designed to cycle SFD air dyers Molecular sieves A solid adsorbent used for drying compressed air Molecular theory All matter consists of molecules that are in constant motion and held together by molecular forces. In a solid, the molecules are closely packed and arranged in such a pattern that the influence of the molecular forces is very strong. This gives the solid its consistency and form. Molecular motion consists largely of oscillations around points of equilibrium. In a liquid, the molecules are about as close as in a solid, but not arranged in a lattice and the cohesive forces are weaker. The molecules are more mobile in relation to each other, whereby the characteristic liquid phase develops; the liquid accommodated itself to the walls of the containing vessel, and its free surface aligns itself horizontally in response to the force of gravity. In a gas, however, the molecules are farther apart, and they move freely about each other since the molecular forces are not as strong. A gas therefore expands through space and mixes with other gasses present. The total volume of the molecules in a gas is very small in relation to the volume of the gas. A gas, therefore may be compressed into a small part of its original volume. 55 NEMA - National Electrical Manufacturer Association National Electrical Code – PC Models only National Electrical Code (NEC) defines hazardous locations as those areas "where fire or explosion hazards may exist due to flammable gases or vapors, flammable liquids, combustible dust, or ignitable fibers or filings." A substantial part of the NEC is devoted to the discussion of hazardous locations. That is because electrical equipment can become a source of ignition in these volatile areas. The writers of the NEC developed a short-hand method of describing areas classified as hazardous locations. One of the purposes is to explain this classification system. The National Electrical Code classifies hazardous locations in three ways: TYPE, CONDITION, and NATURE. National Electrical Manufacturer Association (NEMA) ratings are standards that are useful in defining the types of environments in which an electrical enclosure can be used. The NEMA rating system is defined by the National Electrical Manufacturer Association, and frequently signifies a fixed enclosure's ability to withstand certain environmental conditions. NEMA 7: Indoor use in locations classified as Class I, Division 1, Groups A, B, C or D hazardous locations as defined in the National Electric Code (NFPA 70) (Commonly referred to as explosion-proof). Class I Locations: According to the NEC, there are three types of hazardous locations. The first type of hazard is one created by the presence of flammable gases or vapors in the air, such as natural gas or gasoline vapor. When these materials are found in the atmosphere, a potential for explosion exists, which could be ignited if an electrical or other source of ignition is present. The Code writers have referred to this first type of hazard as Class I. Therefore, a Class I Hazardous Location is one in which flammable gases or vapors may be present in the air in sufficient quantities to be explosive or ignitable. Some typical Class I locations are: • Petroleum refineries, and gasoline storage and dispensing areas • Dry cleaning plants where vapors from cleaning fluids can be present • Spray finishing areas • Aircraft hangars and fuel servicing areas • Utility gas plants • Operations involving storage and handling of liquefied petroleum gas or natural gas All of these are Class I - gas or vapor - hazardous locations and all require special Class I hazardous location equipment. Class II Locations: The second types of hazard listed by the National Electrical Code are areas made hazardous by the presence of combustible dust. These areas are referred to in the Code as "Class II Locations" as finely pulverized material, suspended in the atmosphere and can cause as powerful an explosion as one occurring at a petroleum refinery. Some typical Class II locations are: • Grain elevators • Flour and feed mills • Plants that manufacture, use or store magnesium or aluminum powders • Producers of plastics, medicines and fireworks • Producers of starch or candies • Spice-grinding plants, sugar plants and cocoa plants • Coal preparation plants and other carbon handling or processing areas 56 Normal air A term used for average atmospheric air at sea level in a temperature zone where it contains some moisture It is defined in the ASME Test Code For Displacement Compressors as being at 14 696 psi A, 68 °F, 36% RH and weighing 0 075 lb./cu ft. The k value is 1 395 Oil free compressor A positive displacement air compressor that has no oil injected into the compression chamber for lubrication, cooling or sealing Operating pressure The gauge pressure at which a pressure vessel maintains a normal operation Orifice An opening such as a hole or vent through which air can pass, or a restricted opening placed in a pipe line to provide a means of controlling or measuring flow PC -Pneumatically Controlled Pneumatic logic is a reliable and functional control method for industrial processes. Pneumatic devices are used in processes where compressed air is the only energy source available or upgrade cost, safety, and other considerations outweigh the advantage of modern digital control. Piston displacement Net volume actually displaced by the compressor piston at rated machine speed, generally expressed in cubic feet per minute (usually CFM). For multistage compressors, the piston displacement of the first stage only is commonly stated as that of the entire machine PLC - Programmable Logic Control The automation of many different processes, such as controlling machines or factory assembly lines, accomplished with small computers called a programmable logic controller (PLC’s). This is actually a control device that consists of a programmable microprocessor, and programmed using a specialized computer language. A modern programmable logic controller is usually programmed in any one of several languages, ranging from ladder logic to Basic or C. Typically, the programs written in a development environment on a computer, and then is downloaded onto the programmable logic controller directly through a cable connection. The program is stored in the programmable logic controller in non-volatile memory Pneumatic Of, relating to, or using air moved by air pressure filled with compressed air Pneumatics Engineering science pertaining to gaseous pressure and flow Pneumatic tools Tools that operate by air pressure Point of use Single outlet or limited number of outlets in a building used to connect tools or equipment to the air system Positive displacement compressors Compressors in which successive volumes of air or gas are confined within a closed space and compressed and may be either reciprocating or rotating (trap air and then squeeze it to the desired pressure) PSI - Pounds per square inch Pressure Force per unit area, usually expressed in pounds per square inch (PSI) or BAR Pressure dew point Temperature at which moisture begins to condense in a compressed air system PSI Pounds per square inch PSIG 57 Pounds per square inch pressure indicated by a pressure gauge Purge air The portion of dry, full line pressure, compressed air taken from the drying side tower of a dual tower desiccant dryer system allowing to expanded to a very low pressure and passed across the wet desiccant to strip the moisture in the desiccant of the regenerating tower. In the case of an external blower type dryer, the purge air is atmospheric air compressed by a blower and heated by an external heater to strip moisture off a wet desiccant bed Quick coupler A coupling device that consists of a spring-loaded shutoff valve and a positive locking mechanism used to connect tools, hoses and other accessories. Also known as Quick Disconnect Safety relief valve An automatic pressure-relieving device actuated by the static pressure upstream of the device, which opens in proportion to the increase in pressure over the opening pressure Saturated air vapor mixture Is one in which the space occupied by the mixture is saturated with water vapor at the mixture temperature Saturated vapor pressure Is the pressure existing at a given temperature in a closed vessel containing a liquid and the vapor from that liquid after equilibrium conditions have been reached. It is dependent only on temperature and must be determined experimentally Saturation Occurs when vapor reaches dew point or saturation temperature corresponding to its partial pressure as a gas never becomes saturated with a vapor. However, the space occupied jointly by the gas and vapor may be saturated SCFM Standard cubic feet per minute or flow of free air measured at some reference point and converted to a standard set of reference conditions (e g , 14 4 psia, 80° F, and 60% relative humidity). CFM means cfm at standard conditions, however, standards vary and some care is necessary. In the United States, the usual standard is 14.696 psiA and 60°F. Some chemical engineers will use one ATA and 0°C, but usually will be specific about the reference point. Europeans normally use one ATA and 0°C. It is not the same to all people; therefore, it is best that the reference pressure and temperature be definitely specified Screw compressor Is a positive displacement rotary compressor Single stage compressors Machines in which air or gas is compressed in each cylinder or casing from initial intake pressure to final discharge pressure Silica gel A desiccant most commonly used in heat regenerative type dryers Standard air Air at a temperature of 68 °F, a pressure of 14 70 psia and a relative humidity of 36 per cent (0 0750 density) (as per A S M E however in the gas industry the temperature of standard air is usually given as 60 °F (Unless specifically stated otherwise) Temperature discharge Temperature existing at the discharge port of the compressor Temperature inlet Temperature at the inlet flange of the compressor Temperature intake The total temperature at the intake flange of the compressor Two stage compressor 58 Machines that compress air or gas from initial pressure to an intermediate pressure in one or more cylinders or casings Unload The air compressor continues to run, usually at full RPM, but no air delivered because inlet either closed off or modified, not allowing inlet air to be trapped Unloaded horsepower The power consumed to overcome the frictional losses when operating in an unloaded condition Venturi A tube with a narrow throat (a constriction) increasing velocity and lowering pressure of liquid passing through it that creates a partial vacuum immediately after the constriction in the tube. The vacuum created has a sucking effect, and a venturi is commonly used to introduce a liquid (such as a refrigerant) or gas (such as air) into a flowing water stream Volumetric efficiency The ratio and percent of the actual delivered capacity (measured at inlet temperature, pressure and gas composition) to the piston displacement 59 WARRANTY Warning Proper selection of products listed for sale in this owner’s manual is essential to minimize the risk of any seal, bearing or other product failure.
