- To prevent internal corrosion, which could compromise the safety of the compressed air tank, the
condensation that is produced must be discharged at least once a week.
- The thickness of the tank should be controlled against legislation currently in force in the country where the
tank is installed.
- The tank cannot be used and must be replaced if the thickness falls below the level given in the instruction
documents for the tank.

1.0 GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS
The AIRPRESS compressor units type Combi Basic and Combi Dry Basic use single-stage screw rotary air compressors
with oil injection.
The system is self-bearing and does not require bolts or other devices to anchor it to the floor.
The unit is completely assembled in the factory; the necessary connections for setting it up are:
• connection to the power mains (see installation chapter)
• connection to the compressed air network (see installation chapter)
2.0 INTENDED USE
The Combi Basic and the Combi Dry Basic compressor has been built to supply compressed air for industrial use.
The machine cannot be used in premises where there is a risk of fire or explosion or where work is carried out which
releases substances into the environment which are dangerous with regard to safety (for example: solvents, inflammable
vapours, alcohol, etc.).
In particular the appliance cannot be used to produce air to be breathed by humans or used on direct contact with
foodstuffs. These uses are allowed if the compressed air produced is filtered by means of a suitable filtering system
(Consult the manufacturer for these special uses.)
This appliance must be used only for the purpose for which it was specifically designed.
All other uses are to be considered incorrect and therefore unreasonable.
The Manufacturer cannot be held responsible for any damage resulting from improper, incorrect or unreasonable use.
