4. Operation and maintenance
• Ensure that the water separator is properly sized for the com-
pressed air/nitrogen fl ow, pressure and temperature in accord-
ance to Tables 1, 2, 3 and 4.
• IMPORTANT: Verify that the condensate collected within the
water separator is being completely drained.
If the air/nitrogen compressor consumes signifi cant quantities of
oil, periodically disassemble the water separator and clean the in-
side using solvents. Ensure that the water separator is completely
dry and free of solvent or solvent vapour and replace the O-ring
before reassembling (see Table 5).
• IMPORTANT: Welding, grinding or any other modifi cation is
strictly forbidden and exonerates the manufacturer from all re-
sponsibility and invalidates the warranty.
4.1. STH001P-STH013P
IMPORTANT: Verify corrosion of the water separator periodically
and at least once per year by measuring its thickness. Th e water
separator's thickness must not be less than ' A ' for the shell and 'B'
for the end cap (Table 6).
• IMPORTANT: If the water separator's thickness falls
below a minimum level shown in Table 6, it must be im-
mediately removed from service and replaced.
Ultrasonic thickness measurement
• It is recommended to contact qualifi ed personnel certifi ed by
a third-party organization recognized by a European Member
State or equivalent according to the requirements of EN 14127:
2011.
• An ultrasonic thickness tester suitable for use with painted sur-
faces should be used.
• Compare all measured results to the minimum values indicated
in Table 6. Measured results should be documented and saved.
• Separators with wall thicknesses less than the minimum
values given in Table 6 should immediately be removed from
service and replaced.
• Repeat the measurements at least every 12 months measuring
at the same positions on the water separator. Increase the fre-
quency of measurement of thicknesses if the measurements are
nearing the minimum values indicated in Table 6.
• If more information on ultrasonic thickness measurement is
required please refer to the standard EN 14127:2011 "Non-de-
structive testing – Ultrasonic thickness measurement".
