4. Steam Damper Air System Connections
The ADS-50V is manufactured with a pneumatic (piston) damper system, which requires an external supply
of compressed air. The air connection is made to the steam damper solenoid valve, which is located at the
rear inner top area of the dryer just in front of the electric service relay box.
a. Air Requirements
There is no air requirement for dryers with the Electromechanical Steam Damper Option.
b. Air Connection
Air connection to system --- 1/8” N.P.T.
c. Air Regulation
No air regulator or filtration is provided with the dryer. External regulation/filtration of 80 PSI (5.51
bars) must be provided. It is suggested that a filter/regulator/gauge (F/R/G) arrangement be added to
the compressed air line just before the dryer connection. This is necessary to insure that correct and
clean air pressure is achieved.
