Safety rules

• The personnel carrying out the installation, commis-
sioning, maintenance or repair of the device must be
properly qualified 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
depressurized.
• 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 compressed air or gas. Condensate surges into
the device can impair the function.
• In the event of leaks, shut off the compressed-air sup-
ply immediately 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
function of the separator.

Areas of application

CLEARPOINT water separators are designed for the
separation of solid particles and liquid droplets from non-
aggressive compressed air or industrial gases.

english

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. Gravity causes them
to drip from there into the collecting chamber from which
they are then drained.

Installation

CLEARPOINT water separators undergo stringent qual-
ity 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 receipt. 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.
Observe the direction of flow which is indicated by an
arrow on the housing.
If the pipe network is affected by vibration, it is re-com-
mended 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 facing 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-pro-
tected point along the pipe network.
In the case of CLEARPOINT models supplied with a
BEKOMAT condensate drain as a standard, please
à 16 bar
observe the instructions in the corresponding docu-
+2 °C ... +60 °C
mentation.
+2 °C ... +60 °C
The condensate must be disposed of in compliance with
the valid legal regulations. Condensate treatment using
an ÖWAMAT oil-water separator or a BEKOSPLIT emul-
sion splitting plant represents a particularly economic
solution.
