2. Procedure for element replacement a. Isolate dryer from air supply b. Depressurize dryer by running dryer and allowing system pressure to purge to atmosphere. Loss of pilot pressure will eventually prevent purge/ repressurization valves from opening. Remaining pressure can be vented to atmosphere through the manual drain on the pilot air filter.
8.0 Troubleshooting WARNING - A POTENTIAL ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD EXISTS. Some of the troubleshooting checks may require gaining access to the dryer’s electrical enclosure(s) while the power supply is energized and should be performed by a qualified electrical technician. WARNING - Before performing any electrical or mechanical repairs or maintenance, or removing or disassembling any component, be sure to de- energize and depressurize the dryer.
