Description of Function
The MSF-390 is a 3 stage compressor designed to fill scuba tanks with compressed air.
Air is supplied through air intake filter. The air then enters the 1st stage with a tiny
quantity of oil-vapour and is compressed to 3 bar. From there it passes a cooling pipe to
the 2nd stage, where it is compressed to 45 bar. After that the water and oil are removed
in a (mechanical-expansional) separator and the air is cooled in the next cooling-pipe
before entering stage 3. There it is compressed to the final pressure of 220 bar and then
led to the next filter, where again oil and water are separated through expansion before
the air passes through an activated carbon filter. The filter exit-port is connected to a high
pressure hose, which ends with a pressure-gauge and a tank-connection (filling-valve
assembly).
Each stage has its own safety valve, set and sealed by the manufacturer. The final one is
adjusted from 220 to 330 bar, depending on specification.

WARNING
Safety Precautions
Please refer to the Safety Precautions and use accordingly. The precautions specifically
mentioned in this reading material are of great importance concerning safety, so please follow
as noted. The dangers of misuse are divided into three categories.
DANGER : Ignoring this notice may result in death and/or fatal injury and can face
extreme danger.
WARNING : Ignoring this notice may result in death and/or fatal injury.
CAUTION : Ignoring this notice may result in injury and damage to property.
CAUTION
■ Use only tanks that have been inspected, and never pass the pressure limit as
noted on the tank.
■ Do not use contaminated gases. Do not use in an area with heavy dust.
■ When not in use, keep in an open area.
■ Filter should be replaced regularly as noted in the instruction manual.
(Important: Refer to filter replacement instructions prior to replacement)
■ Do not inject oil or fuels during use.
■ To prevent overheating, cool down compressor after 30 minute operating.
■ User should master instructions and safety precautions in this manual prior to
using the equipment.
■ Installation area needs to be free of chemicals and debris.
■ Installation surface needs to be free of erosion.
■ Install in an area with open air flow and minimal exposure to weather conditions.
WARNING
■ Owner of the equipment should always emphasize precaution to the operator.
■ Accidents should be avoided through careful observation of abnormalities such
as irregular noise from the equipment.
■ Equipment parts should not be altered or relocated in any form.
■ Failure to use recommended parts may result in accidents.
■ Do not remove or alter safety stickers or safety valves.
■ Always examine equipment for missing and irregular parts.
■ Notify us in the event of any discovery of defects, after posting a sign alerting
the equipment out of order.
■ Machinery should always be operated in right lighting. Lighting too bright or too
dark may lead to accidents in operating the equipment.
■ Always check the status of oil and need for changing of oil.
■ Always check the power supply current for the equipment.

5. Installation
General Notice
The compressor should be connected to an 16 Ampere plug.
Note: Check direction of rotation immediately after the first start. If the direction of rotation
is wrong, the pistons may adhere to the piston sleeve due to the lack of lubrication!!
Furthermore, the unit would not be cooled properly. When facing the front of he
compressor (water separator side), the direction of rotation should be clockwise (check
arrows on compressor block and cover). Don't place compressor closer than 0.5 m to any
walls and ensure good ventilation.
