Ensure that the Dryer and any associated Prefilter(s) and Afterfilter(s) are valve isolated and fully depres- surized before attempting to remove or disassemble any components or subassemblies. Failure to do so may result in serious personal injury and/or equipment damage. WARNING! ‘Some of the following troubleshooting checks require entering the Dryer Control System enclosure while the Dryer’s electrical power supply is energized. Therefore, a potential electrical shock hazard exists. These checks should be conducted by a qualified electrical technician or a Airdyne Authorized Field Service Technician ONLY. The Dryer’s electrical power supply must be de-energized before any electrical main- tenance or repair work is conducted. (CAUTION: Do not open or enter the Dryer Control System without exercising proper precautions for Static Sensi- tive Devices. DO NOT remove the factory programmed microcomputer chip or any I.C. chip from the Logic Con- trol Circuit Board, Improper removel or handling will cause irreparable damage to these highly Static Sensitive Com- ponents. Damage to these components will render the Dryer Control System inoperative until replacement is accom plished by a Airdyne Authorized Field Service Technician. DO NOT remove the program identification sticker from the microcomputer chip. IMPORTANT: Water molecules can diffuse through a pinhole size leak even though pressure inside the piping is sev- eral hundred PSIG. It is not at all uncommon to have a minute pinhole leak in a gas line cause an increase in dew point from -40°F to -10°F ata distance of forty or more feet downstream of the leak. CAUTION: Do not change settings of DIP switches. DIP switches are factory set to meet dryer design specifica- tions. Improper DIP switch settings may cause the Dryer Control System to operate erratically, or malfunction. Con tact your local Pneumatic Products Sales Representative to obtain the correct DIP switch settings for your dryer.
