Filter set brackets
A suitable bracket must be ordered for every filter set.
Condensation and filtration unit
The compressor can be equipped with a condensation and filtration unit (KJF-1 or KJFR-1). The unit
is used to cool the compressed air from the air tank in the cooler, to capture condensate in the filter,
to drain condensate automatically from the pneumatic system and to filter the compressed air.
8. PRODUCT FUNCTION
8.1. Compressor
Fig. 1 Compressor pump (1) sucks the atmospheric air in through the inlet filter (8) and compresses
it through the non-return valve (3) into the air tank (2) from which the device draws in the compressed
air. If the pressure in the air tank drops to the switch-on pressure, the pressure switch (4) switches
the compressor on and the compressor compresses the air into the air tank until it reaches the
switch-off pressure, when the compressor switches off. The pressure hose is vented through the
solenoid relief valve (13) once the compressor pump is switched off. The safety valve (5) prevents
the pressure in the air tank from rising above the maximum allowed value. The drain valve (7) drains
the condensate from the air tank. Compressed, oil-free filtered air is stored in the air tank ready for
use.
Condensate must be drained from the air tank at regular intervals (see Chapter17.1).
8.2. Compressor with membrane dryer
Fig. 2 The air pump (1) draws in air through an inlet filter (8) and compresses it, feeding it to the
cooler (14) through the filter (15) and the check valve (3) into the dryer (9), and feeds the clean and
dry air into the air tank (2). A part of the air is released from the dryer with the captured moisture,
which is manifested as a light air stream along the body of the dryer (9). Condensate from the filter
is automatically drained at regular intervals into the collecting bottle via the condensate drain
solenoid valve (16). The dryer ensures continuous drying of the compressed air. The drain valve (7)
drains condensate from the air tank when drying performance is checked. Compressed, oil-free
filtered air is stored in the air tank ready for use.

For the membrane dryer to work as intended, the dryer is connected directly to the air tank without
the use of a check valve. As the membrane dryer contains selective membrane fibres, there is a
small amount of air leakage through them (about 0.5 bar/30 min)
This is why there is a gradual, slow drop in pressure even when there is no demand for compressed
air (from the air tank), however, this is not a malfunction
The pressure tank is dry and does not need to be drained.
8.3. Compressor cabinet
Fig. 3 The soundproof cabinet provides compact covering of the compressor, dampens noise
efficiently, providing sufficient exchange of cooling air. The fan under the compressor pump provides
cooling of the compressor. It is in operation at the same time with the compressor motor or after
switching on the temperature switch at temperature above 40°C. After cooling the cabinet area
approximately under 32°C, the fan turns off automatically.
Risk of compressor overheating.
Make sure that there are no obstacles at the cooling air inlet into the cabinet
(around the bottom part of the cabinet) and at the hot air outlet on the top back
side of the cabinet.
If the compressor is placed on a soft floor, e.g. carpet, create space between the
base and the floor or the cabinet and the floor, e.g. underlay the footings with
hard pads to ensure sufficient cooling of the compressor.
The 8 - 10 bar compressor model is equipped with hours counter (Fig. 3).

INSTALLATION
Risk of incorrect installation.
Only a qualified professional can install the compressor and place it into
operation for the first time. His obligation is to train the operating personnel on
the use and maintenance of the device. He shall confirm installation and training
of operators by an entry into the installation record (see Annex).
9. INSTALLATION CONDITIONS
The compressor may only be installed and operated in dry, well-ventilated and dust-free rooms
with conditions stated in Technical data.
Risk of damage to the device.
Do not operate the device in outdoor environment or in humid or wet rooms.
Explosion risk.
Do not install the device in any rooms, in which explosive gases, dusts or
flammable liquids may be present.
The compressor must be installed in such a way, that it is accessible at all times for operation and
maintenance and label on the device is accessible.
The compressor must stand on a flat, sufficiently stable base (be aware of the compressor weight,
see Technical data).
You may notice a “new product” odour when you first place the product into
service (for a short period of time). This odour is temporary and does not impede
the normal use of the product. Ensure the space is properly ventilated after
installation.
10. COMPRESSOR ASSEMBLY
10.1. Manipulation and fixation removal
Unpack the compressor from the packaging.
Put the compressor at the place of operation (Fig. 4).
Use the compressor base for gripping, when manipulating with the compressor.
Do not use any other compressor parts (pump, cooler, etc.) for gripping the
compressor.
The number of persons required to handle the equipment must be matched to the
weight of the device.
