This air-gun is intended to blow the spray-gun dry after the
cleaning procedure.
PLACING THE UNIT
The DRESTER BOXER TRIPLE C is equipment Category 2 (ref.
ATEX-directive 94/9 EC) and may therefore be placed in loca-
tions classifi ed as Zone 1 (ref. ATEX-directive 1999/92 EC).
If the DRESTER BOXER TRIPLE C is installed in locations clas-
sifi ed as Zone 2 or in unclassifi ed locations, the following is
valid provided that the ventilation of the unit is installed as
described further down in this manual:
The space within 1 m of the DRESTER BOXER TRIPLE C is to be
classifi ed as Zone 2, and the inside of the ducting as Zone 1
(see illustration 17).
Within these areas, all equipment such as electrical items must
be approved for the Zones described. Equipment that generates
naked fl ames or sparks (e.g. welding or grinding equipment)
may not be used in this area. Smoking is not permitted. If in
any doubt, please contact the local fi re service authorities for
advice.
This manual is part of the unit and must be available at all
times.
INSTALLATION
Compressed air
The unit must be connected to compressed air of 7-12 bar
(110-180 psi). When in use, the unit consumes 150 litres/
min (6 cfm) of air (450 litres/min (16 cfm) if connected to a
DRESTER AIRVENT 11660).
The air is to be connected to the moisture trap inside the unit
(item 1 illustration 2). To access this point, remove the front
panel (item 5 illustration 1) by lifting it up-and-out.
The air-line can be led into this point via the slots on the side
of the unit, or through the open back of the unit. In either case,
make sure that the air-line do not bend the hoses or in any
other way harm the pneumatic system of the unit.
