External and Daily Cleaning

External cleaning: Regularly wipe the exterior of the cold drying machine with a damp cloth and then dry it with a dry cloth. Avoid directly spraying water or using volatile oil or chemical substances to scrub, as this may damage the electrical components or cause the casing to fade, deform or peel off the paint.

Internal and component cleaning: When shutting down the equipment, regularly evacuate the air and clean the internal components.

 

Maintenance of Key Components

Automatic drain: Check the drainage condition of the automatic drain every day and clean the drainage filter screen regularly to prevent clogging and loss of drainage function. Clean the drain pipe with soapy water or detergent. Do not use corrosive reagents.

Air-cooled condenser: The surface of the air-cooled condenser is prone to accumulate dust, ash, fibers and other dirt. It is necessary to regularly blow it with compressed air as needed to prevent the fins of the condenser from being affected by pressure. Ensure there is sufficient space around for ventilation and heat dissipation, and do not operate under direct sunlight.

Water-cooled water filter: The filter should be cleaned regularly to prevent insufficient water circulation and poor heat dissipation. The cooling water should be kept clean. The Y-type filter should be cleaned once every half a month, and once a month if the water quality is good. The water condenser should be cleaned once a year (depending on the water quality).

 

System Inspection and Maintenance

Cooling water and compressed air system: Regularly monitor the inlet temperatures of the cooling water system and the compressed air system to ensure that all values are normal. The water temperature of the cooling water should be between 2 and 32℃, and the water pressure should be between 0.15 and 0.3MPa. The intake temperature of compressed air should generally be ≤45℃ (it is advisable that the intake pipe is not hot when touched by hand).

Refrigeration system: Regularly observe the refrigeration system. Touch the compressor with your hand at least once a day. It should be cold and frosty. Every week, feel the temperature difference on both sides of the drying filter by hand. The temperature difference should not be too large (if the inlet is hot and the outlet is cold, it needs to be replaced).

Drainage and sewage system: Regularly observe the drainage and sewage system. The float ball drain should be cleaned approximately once a week, and the sewage pipe should be drained once a week. When cleaning the electronic drain valve, it is necessary to close the ball valve at the front of the automatic drain valve, loosen the upper fixed nut, take out the timing coil, unplug the hose, loosen the valve body of the drain valve, release the compressed air inside the drain valve, remove the valve core and wipe it clean, then screw the valve body back to its original position, gently open the front ball valve a little, use the compressed air to drain the impurities, water and oil in the drainage system, and wipe the valve body clean with a cloth. Finally, reinstall the valve core and timing coil in their original positions, and then install the hose to open the front ball valve.

 

Operating Environment and Operating Specifications

Ambient temperature: It is not advisable to use the refrigerated dryer when the ambient temperature is below 2℃. When the ambient temperature is high, check if it exceeds 40℃. If it does, improvements are needed.

Operating Specifications: Conduct regular inspection Tours to check the supply conditions of power, water and gas sources, and pay attention to observing and recording the pressure indication values on the panel of the refrigerated dryer. Observe and record the instrument values of the refrigerated dryer four times per shift to ensure that the pressure difference between the inlet and outlet of the compressed air does not exceed 0.035MPa, the evaporation pressure gauge is between 0.4MPa and 0.5MPa, and the high-pressure pressure gauge is between 1.2MPa and 1.6MPa.

 

Safety Inspection

Electrical control system: Regularly inspect the electrical control system, blow off the dust, and tighten the wiring terminals (this must be done without electricity).

Safety devices: Before starting up, check whether the safety devices are reliable.
