GENERAL INFORMATIONS
The units described in this manual are called dryers.
They are designed to dry a compressed gas flow.
These dryers are equipped with a refrigeration circuit for cooling the compressed air to the
temperature called dewpoint under pressure.
In most applications the gas to be dried is the compressed air and this is why this term will
be used even if the gas to be dried is different. Furthermore, the term pressure will be used
to indicate the relative pressure.
The following symbols are shown on the stickers on the unit as well as on the dimensional
drawings and refrigeration circuits in this manual.
Their meaning is the following:

Performances
ATTENTION
The performance of the dryer (dew-point, electrical power consumption, pressure drops,
etc.) mainly depends on the flow rate and pressure of the compressed gas to be dried and on
the temperature of the ambient air to cool the condenser.
These dryers are matched to the following air compressors and should not be used with
any other type or model:
R10: Hydrovane HV04, HV05, HV07 and HV07RS.

Chapter 4 - Description
CHAPTER 4
DESCRIPTION
4.1
Operating principle
A refrigeration circuit reduces the temperature of a patented thermal mass through which
the humid compressed air to be dried is passed.
As the air is cooled its water vapour condenses and is then separated and drained.
The temperature of the thermal mass is controlled by an electronic board which stops the
compressor when it reaches the fixed set point.
4.2
4.2.1
C om pr es se d ai r ci r cu it
The warm, wet compressed air enters the dryer and passes through the air-to-air heat
exchanger section of the thermal mass.
Here it is pre-cooled by the cold, dry compressed air leaving the air-to-refrigerant heat
exchanger section or the evaporator of the thermal mass.
The pre-cooled air then enters the evaporator section of the thermal mass where it is cooled
(in most applications to a temperature of approximately 3C / 37.4F) exchanging heat with
the evaporator refrigerant fluid and the silica thermal mass.
The heat is exchanged by conduction through the aluminium fins connecting the copper
tubes, inside which the compressed air flows, to the copper tubes, inside which the
refrigerant fluid evaporates.
The aluminium fins also exchange heat with the silica thermal mass keeping it at a
temperature of approximately 0C (32 F).
At this stage, the compressed air is in a saturated state and entrains the condensed moisture
produced during cooling.
It then passes into the high efficiency condensate separator (demister type with stainless
steel mesh) where the entrained moisture is precipitated out of the air and collects at the
bottom of the separator.
A timed or intelligent condensate discharger (depending on the unit configuration) opens at
intervals to force the condensate from the dryer with compressed air.
The cold, dry air leaving the separator then flows for a second time through the air-to-air
heat exchanger section of the thermal mass where it is reheated while pre-cooling the warm
wet air entering the dryer.
Not only does this air-to-air heat exchanger reduce the energy consumption required to dry a
given quantity of compressed air, but it also prevents condensation from forming on the
dryer outlet.

INSTALLATION
DANGER
Before installing or operating these dryers, make sure that all personnel have read and
understood Chapter 2 Safety of this manual.
5.1
Positioning
1. Install the compressor and dryer in a well ventilated area where the ambient air is
clean and free from flammable gas or solvents.
2. Take care when installing the compressor and dryer in areas subject to low ambient
temperatures.
Take steps to prevent any discharged condensate from freezing in the drainage
system.
The minimum operating ambient temperature of the dryer is shown on the data
table applied on the unit.
3. The dryer may be placed on any sufficiently strong and level surface.
Allow the clearances shown in the installation drawings around the unit for
servicing access and to ensure an unrestricted flow of cool air through the
refrigeration condenser.
Position the dryer so that cooling air cannot recirculate in the ventilation inlet
grilles.
Make sure that the dryer is not subject to warm air flows from the air compressor,
after-coolers or other pieces of equipment.

5.2
Piping
(see installation diagram)
The dryer is normally supplied already fitted to the air compressor, in which case proceed as
follows:
1. Air outlet connections are clearly marked (see Chapter 1 General informations).
Pipes and connections must be of the correct size and suitable for working
pressure.
Do not forget to remove blanking plugs from the pipe connections but take care to
prevent swarf, metal filings, pieces of tape or other solid particles from entering
the dryer during installation as these may block the filter or the discharge valve.
2. All piping must be properly supported. Flexible connections are recommended
in order to prevent pipe stress or the transmission of vibrations.
3. Connect the condensate discharge pipe to a suitable point.
The dryer discharge must not be connected to those from any other compressed air
equipment; ideally it should discharge into a open funnel.
Condensate drainage must never be piped into a common sewer drain as it may
contain oil.
Oil/water separators should be used to collect discharged oil.
Make sure that the drainage system complies with local regulations.
If the dryer is not supplied already fitted to the air compressor, proceed as follows:
1. Air inlet and outlet connections are clearly marked (see Chapter 1 General
informations).
Pipes and connections must be of the correct size and suitable for working
pressure.
Do not forget to remove blanking plugs from the pipe connections but take care to
prevent swarf, metal filings, pieces of tape or other solid particles from entering
the dryer during installation as these may block the filter or the discharge valve.

Electrical connections
ATTENTION
In order to prevent the possible damages at the fuse-holder and at the fuse, they were
uninstalled and they were placed into the paper-holder, to protect them from any
accidental hit.
Before to connect the unit to the main power supply, it is necessary to reassemble the
fuse into the fuse-holder, and reinstall it.
The machine must be connected to the mains power supply in accordance with the laws and
regulations in force in the country of installation.
Voltage, frequency and the number of phases must comply with the values indicated on the
machine data plate.
Input voltage must always remain within the tolerances indicated in the electrical diagram.
Unless otherwise indicated, frequency tolerance is equal to +/-1% of its rated value (+/-2%
for short periods).
The voltage must be supplied between the phase and neutral and the latter conductor must be
earthed in its own transformation cabin (TN system according to IEC 364) or by the
electricity provider (TT system according to IEC 364).
The phase and earth conductors must not be exchanged.
For mains power input:
1. Connect the machine (PE terminal in the electrical panel) to the earth system of the
building;
2. Fit an automatic interruption in the event of insulation faults (protection against
indirect contact according to IEC 364) by means of a residual current circuit
breaker (normally with a rated cut-in current of 0.03 A);
3. Provide protection against direct contact of at least IP2X or IPXXB upline from
the power cable;
4. Fit a device protecting the power cable or the cable supplied with the machine
from overcurrent (short-circuit) (see indication in the electrical diagram) upline
from the power cable;
5. Use conductors which can carry the maximum current required at the maximum
ambient operating temperature, according to the type of installation chosen (IEC
364-5-523) (see indication in the electrical diagram).

Temperature Probe
The electronic board features a temperature probe which is inserted into the thermal mass to
measure the dew-point temperature in order to control the thermostat (see paragraph 7.4
Thermostat function ).
The probe is protected to IP67 (including the cable) and features an NTC sensor with an
operating temperature range of -10 / +65C (+14 / +149F).
The resistance-temperature ratio must correspond to that described by the resistance values
(rated), expressed in k, indicated in the Table 7.

Thermostat function
The thermostat function starts and stops the refrigerant compressor by comparing the value
measured by the probe with the SET (0C / 32.0F) and DIF (4C / 7.2F) values on the
electronic board.
The following graph illustrates the thermostat function operating logic.
When the compressor is enabled, it always starts after a timed delay set by the electronic
control (see paragraph 7.5 Compressor delay ).
The SET and DIF values of the thermostat function are fixed so they cannot be modified.

CHAPTER 8
Each unit is fitted with either a timed or intelligent condensate discharge assembly
depending on which option is ordered.
The timed condensate drain is automatically controlled by the electronic board with which it
is possible to set the condensate discharge intervals (see Chapter 7 Electronic Control).
The intelligent condensate drain features an electronic condensate level control system with
a capacitive sensor.
The electronic board of the drain continuously reads the signal sent to it by the capacitive
sensor.
When the level of condensate increases above the sensor, the solenoid valve is energised
after a delay time of 23 seconds in order to allow the discharge of condensate.
When the level of condensate falls again below the sensor, the solenoid valve is de-energised
and stops the condensate discharge.
8.1
8.1.1
F il te r cl e ani ng
When a dryer is installed for the first time, it is common for particles of rust, pipe scale,
metal filings etc. to find their way into the separator and then into the filter.
It should therefore be cleaned about a month after installation.Thereafter it should be
cleaned once every 3 months.
In some installations, even more frequent cleaning may be required.
A Filterstop valve with incorporated strainer (see adjacent figure) is installed.
R10
The timed condensate discharger is fitted with a Filterstop valve: just close the
valve.
Press the manual condensate discharge button P1 to check that the filter is
not pressurised.
Open the IG main switch to disconnect the power supply to the dryer.
Carefully unscrew the filter cap [1] retaining the sealing gasket [2] and remove
the strainer mesh [3].
Once cleaned, reinsert the mesh making sure it is home and square and tighten
cap [1].
Replace the sealing gasket if it is damaged.

8.1.2
S o l en o id v al v e m a int en a n c e
The solenoid valve must always be protected by an appropriate filter to prevent solid
particles preventing it from opening and closing correctly.
However, if these particles manage to cross the filter and cause the valve to malfunction, all
its internal components must be cleaned.
To access to the solenoid valve follow the same indications described for the strainer (see
paragraph 8.1.1 Filter cleaning ).
Proceed as follows:
R10
remove the solenoid valve from the pipe and Condensate discharge solenoid
valve
tightly clamp the body in a vice;
unscrew the nut [1] fixing the solenoid valve
[2] and remove it from the tie-rod [3];
unscrew the tie-rod from the valve seat;
check the condition of the O-ring seal [4]
and of all other components and clean them
carefully;
re-assemble the components by reversing the
above procedures;
make sure that the valve is re-installed with

CHAPTER 9
9.1
Operation
Do not switch off the dryer if there is no compressed air flow.
The dryer switches on and off automatically.
The number of starts and stops depends on the flow of compressed air, its temperature and
ambient temperature.
As explained in the Chapter 5 Installation, the control board automatically switches off the
refrigerant compressor when there is no air flow.
In this case, the refrigerant compressor will run occasionally and for brief periods to
compensate for the dispersion of heat between the thermal mass and the surrounding ambient
air.
The dryer is therefore ready to dry compressed air as soon as the flow is restarted.
However, it is perfectly safe to switch off the dryer at night or at weekends when the air
compressor is not running.
In this case, remember to start the dryer at least 10-15 minutes before the air
compressor.
