Beko CLEARPOINT S040 Installation Und Betriebsanleitung Seite 5

Safety rules
• The personnel carrying out the installation, commissioning,
maintenance or repair of the device must be properly quali-
fied for this type of work. In particular, the persons concerned
must
- be suitably trained and familiar with handling
compressed-air systems besides being informed
about the associated dangers,
- know the content of the relevant instructions for
installation and operation, and
- possess vocational qualifications or entitlements in
this particular field of work.
• Before the start of any work, the housing must first be de-
pressurized.
• In the case of CLEARPOINT filters with BEKOMAT all the
rules of the separate instructions need to be complied with.
• To ensure safe functioning, only use the device within the
operational limits (operating pressure, operating temperature,
volumetric flow, material stability).
• Where a BEKOMAT is installed, it must be ensured that the
device is designed for the stated volumetric flow of com-
pressed air or gas. Condensate surges into the device can
impair the function.
• In the event of leaks, shut off the compressed-air supply im-
mediately and eliminate the cause in order to maintain safe
and cost-effective operation.
• CLEARPOINT filters, including accessories, must be
checked once a week. This applies in particular to the func-
tion of the separator.
Areas of application
CLEARPOINT water separators are designed for the separa-
tion of solid particles and liquid droplets from non-aggressive
compressed air or industrial gases.

Function
The separator housings are equipped with internal swirl inserts,
that cause air entering at high speed to be invested with a
rapid rotating motion. The acceleration this causes produces
a large centrifugal force on the particles and droplets within the
compressed air, which propels them onto the outer wall. Grav-
ity causes them to drip from there into the collecting chamber
from which they are then drained.
Installation
CLEARPOINT water separators undergo stringent quality
control procedures in the manufacturing plant and are handed
over to the forwarding agent in a perfect condition. Upon arrival
of the goods, please check for any visible damage and, where
appropriate, insist on a corresponding note on the delivery re-
ceipt. Get in touch immediately with the forwarding agent and
arrange for an assessment of the damage. The manufacturer
is not responsible for any damage caused during transport.
Positioning:
The housing should be mounted in a vertical position. Ob-
serve the direction of flow which is indicated by an arrow on
the housing.
If the pipe network is affected by vibration, it is re-commended
to install vibration dampers.
Installation:
The bottom of the filter is double-threaded. It must therefore
be ensured that the bottom is not installed with the slide fac-
ing backwards. For correct installation, the closed slide should
face to the front.
For better water separator efficiency, it is recommended to
install the device at a preferably cool, but frost-protected point
along the pipe network.
In the case of CLEARPOINT models supplied with a BEKOMAT
condensate drain as a standard, please observe the instruc-
tions in the corresponding documentation.
The condensate must be disposed of in compliance with the
valid legal regulations. Condensate treatment using an ÖWA-
MAT oil-water separator or a BEKOSPLIT emulsion splitting
plant represents a particularly economic solution.
