APPLICATION

The DRESTER RDX 8012 is the Docking Unit that, when connected to the DRESTER 8000 Gun Cleaner and DRESTER 120
Recycler forms the closed system called the "DRESTER DYNAMIC TRIPLE 8000". This brings safe handling of both clean and
contaminated solvent. The system eliminates heavy lifting and handling of solvent drums. It minimises solvent losses, and speeds
up the work.
This manual describes the DRESTER RDX 8012 Docking Unit, how to install it, and how to operate the complete "DRESTER
DYNAMIC TRIPLE 8000" system. The DRESTER 8000 Gun Cleaner is described in detail in manual no. 6901. The DRESTER
120 Recycler is described in detail in manual no. 11213. The descriptions below also apply to the DRESTER 3600 Gun Cleaner.

ASSEMBLY

The DRESTER RDX 8012 Docking Unit is supplied complete in a box. The unit does not require any further assembly. The
Docking Unit is installed in accordance with the instructions below with the aid of the enclosed accessories.
Note: Air lines for compressed air and associated couplings (for 1/4" internal thread) must be supplied by the purchaser.

PLACING THE UNIT

The DRESTER RDX 8012 is placed on the right side of the DRESTER 8000. The DRESTER 8000 with RDX 8012 are
equipment Category 2 (ref. ATEX-directive 94/9 EC) and may therefore be placed in locations classified as Zone 1 (ref. ATEX-
directive 1999/92 EC). If the DRESTER 8000 with RDX 8012 are installed in locations classified as Zone 2 (or in unclassified
locations), the area within a radius of 1 m from the DRESTER 8000 with RDX 8012 is to be classified as Zone 1, and within a
radius of an additional 2.5 m from the unit as Zone 2 (total classification: 3.5 m around the machinery and 1 m above it). Within
this area, all equipment such as electrical items must be approved for the Zones described. Equipment that generates naked flames
or sparks (e.g. welding or grinding equipment) may not be used in this area. Smoking is not permitted.
If in any doubt, contact the local fire service authorities for advice.
Always ensure that the unit is correctly grounded.
This manual is part of the equipment and must be kept accessible at all times.

COLLECTING TRAY

To prevent accidental leakage of solvent that runs onto the floor from spreading into a drain water system, the DRESTER 8000
with RDX 8012 must be installed in a location where floor and walls can hold the accidental leakage.

PREPARATIONS BEFORE INSTALLATION

General
To ensure an effective, trouble-free installation of the DRESTER DYNAMIC TRIPLE 8000, the following preparations should be
made:
DRESTER 8000 Gun Cleaner
Install the Gun Cleaner according to manual no. 6901. Please note that the DRESTER 8000 must be equipped with bottom plate
8195, NOT the 6642 Collecting Tray.
DRESTER 120 Recycler
Install the Recycler according to manual no. 11213. Note that the electrical installation must be carried out by a qualified
electrician.
Compressed air connection
By the Recycler, compressed air of 3–10 bar must be available.
By the Gun Cleaner, compressed air of 7–12 bar must be available.
If the supply of compressed air is between 7 and 10 bar, the system may be connected to the same outlet.
The compressed air supplied to the units must be clean and dry, otherwise it may cause damage to the pneumatic components of
the unit, which will invalidate any warranty claims.
Combined or separate
If the Recycler is to be installed at some distance from the Gun Cleaner, the "PIPING KIT 10810" will be required for installation.
Apart from components, this kit also includes manual no. 11161, which describes such an installation.
Air lines and couplings
Note: Air lines for compressed air and associated couplings (for 1/4" internal thread) must be supplied by the purchaser.
Solvents
60 litres of solvent are required to prime the "DRESTER DYNAMIC TRIPLE 8000" system.
