Maintenance
Filter Element
Schedule regular element changes to ensure optimum performance and quality of filtered air, keeping operating costs low.Increased pressure drop reduces system efficiency, which may damage some system components. The compressor will also have to work harder to overcome the pressure drop, increasing operating costs.
Parts and Accessories
Inspect all filter parts and accessories during each element change and replace damaged or worn parts when necessary. Use only original TOPRING spares to ensure proper filter performance and to avoid compromising your filter warranty.
Automatic Drain
Inspect the automatic condensate drain every two to three weeks for excessive oil and water by using the manual drain function to discharge the condensate until the compressed air blows through for a few seconds.
If a significant amount of condensate is discharged, the condensate drain should be cleaned or replaced as required.

Warnings
Failure to comply with the following safety guidelines may result in equipment failure,serious injury or death.
- All warnings, cautions, prohibitions and notes in this manual must be read beforehand and observed during installation, operation and maintenance. The user must operate with care, observing all instructions concerning health and safety, when handling, operating or maintaining the filter.
- Compressed air is dangerous. Before performing any installation or maintenance on any component of a compressed air system, including filters, ensure that the system has been discharged or vented to atmospheric pressure. Ensure all safety regulations are observed and appropriate protection worn.
- Inspect the filter thoroughly upon receipt and before installation. If any component or part of the filter is damaged, do not install or repair the filter. Contact your dealer.
- Do not operate the filter at pressure or temperatures exceeding the maximum pressure and temperature of the filter.
- Avoid damaging the filter body when removing or tightening the filter body. Do not use a pipe wrench. If necessary, use a locking strap clamp/wrench. The filter body may be heavy. Caution should be taken when removing it.
- The use of replacement parts or elements other than those by TOPRING may cause failure of the filter, property damage, serious injury or even death. Hence, TOPRING bears no responsibility for the consequences of use of filters containing non-approved parts.
- This filter was not designed for oxygen service. Filtration of compressed gases or gas mixtures other than that of atmospheric air requires specialised filters.
- Activated carbon filters will not affect the levels of carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide or other toxic gases or fumes. Hence, the outlet air may not be suitable for breathing.
- Protect the environment by recycling where possible and using only approved methods of disposal. Used filter elements typically hold contaminants.
- TOPRING cannot anticipate every possible circumstance that might lead to a potential hazard. Hence, the warnings in this manual are not all-inclusive.
