To ensure safe functioning, only use the device within the operational limits (operating pressure, operating temperature, volumetric flow, material stability). Where a BEKOMAT is installed, it must be ensured that the device is designed for the stated volumetric flow of compressed air or gas. Condensate surges into the device can impair the function. In the event of leaks, shut off the compressed-air supply immediately and eliminate the cause in order to maintain safe and cost-effective operation. CLEARPOINT water separators, including accessories, must be checked once a week. This applies in particular to the function of the separator. | | ity to the requirements of the EC Pressure Equipment Directive, the housings can be "put into circulation" in the countries of the European Community without any trade restrictions whatsoever. Installation CLEARPOINT water separators undergo stringent quality control procedures in the manufacturing plant and are handed over to the forwarding agent in a perfect condition. Upon arrival of the goods, please check for any vi-sible damage and, where appropriate, insist on a corresponding note on the delivery receipt. Get in touch immediately with the forwarding agent and arrange for an assessment of the damage. The manufacturer is not responsible for any damage caused during transport. Positioning: The housing should be mounted in a vertical position. Observe the direction of flow which is indicated by an arrow on the housing. As an alternative to the usual suspension within the pipe network, the housing can also be in a standing position. Radially welded-on receiving plates allow the optimal mounting of feet which can then be anchored to the floor. The choice of 3 feet enables secure positioning of the device even if the floor is not level. If the pipe network is affected by vibration, it is recommended to install vibration dampers. Installation: For better filter efficiency, it is recommended to install the device at a preferably cool, but frost-protected point along the pipe network. In the case of CLEARPOINT models supplied with a BEKOMAT condensate drain as a standard, please observe the instructions in the corresponding documentation. The condensate must be disposed of in compliance with the valid legal regulations. Condensate treatment using an OWAMAT oil-water separator or a BEKOSPLIT emulsion splitting plant represents a particularly economic solution. | | |
| | | Areas of application CLEARPOINT water separators are designed for the separation of solid particles and liquid droplets from non-aggressive compressed air or industrial gases. Max. operating pressure: L065-L156 16 bar L200-L304 10 bar Max. operating temperature: +2 °C to +60 °C Function The separator housings are equipped with internal swirl inserts, that cause air entering at high speed to be invested with a rapid rotating motion. The acceleration this causes produces a large centrifugal force on the particles and droplets within the compressed air, which propels them onto the outerwall. Gravity causes them to drip from there into the collecting chamber from which they are then drained. Pressure Vessel Ordinance The housings are manufactured and tested in accordance with CE standards. Due to the conform- | | |
