AIR CARE SEMINAR TRAINING
Sullair Air Care Seminars are courses that provide hands-on instruction for the proper operation, maintenance,
and servicing of Sullair products. Individual seminars on Industrial compressors and compressor electrical
systems are offered at regular intervals throughout the year at Sullair’s corporate headquarters training facility
located at Michigan City, Indiana.
Instruction includes training on the function and installation of Sullair service parts, troubleshooting common
faults and malfunctions, and actual equipment operation. These seminars are recommended for maintenance,
contractor maintenance, and service personnel.

NOTES
2.2 DEFINITION OF THE SAFETY SYMBOLS USED
Before attempting any intervention on the dryer, read carefully the instructions reported
in this use and maintenance manual.
General warning sign. Risk of danger or possibility of damage to the machine. Read
carefully the text related to this sign.
Electrical hazard. The relevant text outlines conditions which could result fatal. The
related instructions must be strictly respected.
Danger hazard. Component or system which during the operation can reach high
temperature.
Danger hazard. It’s absolutely forbidden to breathe the air treated with this apparatus.
Danger hazard: It’s absolutely forbidden to use water to extinguish fire on the dryer or in
the surrounding area.
Danger hazard; It’s absolutely forbidden to operate the machine when the parts (under

2.3 WARNINGS
Compressed air is a highly hazardous energy source. Never work on the dryer with
parts under pressure. Never point the compressed air or the condensate drain jet
towards anybody.
The user is responsible for the installation of the dryer, which has to be executed on the
basis of the instructions given in the “Installation” chapter. Otherwise, the warranty will
be voided and dangerous situations for the personnel and/or damages to the machine
could occur.
Only qualified personnel can use and service electrically powered devices. Before
attempting any maintenance action, the following conditions must be satisfied :
• Ensure that any part of the machine is under voltage and that it can-
not be connected to the mains.
• Ensure that any part of the dryer is under pressure and that it cannot
be connected to the compressed air system.
Any change to the machine or to the relevant operating parameters, if not previously
verified and authorised by the Manufacturer, in addition to create the possibility of
dangerous conditions it will void the warranty.
Don’t use water to extinguish fire on the dryer or in the surrounding area.

SECTION 6 DHL HEATLESS REGENERATIVE DRYER
During the start-up both regeneration drain solenoid valves PVA and PVB are closed (for about 120 seconds) to
guarantee the complete pressurization of the dryer.
Stage A The solenoid valve PVB is supplied so the tower B is depressurized. Both inlet and outlet
spools of shuttle valves move towards tower B (side without pressure).
The compressed air flow is directed to tower A, where the desiccant material adsorbs the
humidity up to the target Dew Point.
Through the regeneration nozzle a calibrated part of dry air coming out from tower A is
expanded towards tower B. This air (particularly dry for this expansion operation) while cross-
ing tower B, dries the adsorbent material dragging away the humidity through the PVB solenoid
valve and the silencers. At the end of this stage the adsorption material of tower B is com-
pletely regenerated.
Stage B The solenoid valve PVB is closed and then through the regeneration nozzle tower B is pressur-
ized again up to the working pressure. The sum of stages A + B equals a half cycle time.
Stage C The solenoid valve PVA is supplied so tower A is depressurized. Both inlet and outlet spools of
shuttle valves move towards tower A (side without pressure).
The compressed air flow is directed to tower B, where the desiccant material adsorbs the
humidity up to the target DewPoint.
Through the regeneration nozzle a calibrated part of dry air coming out from tower B is
expanded towards tower A. This air (particularly dry for this expansion operation) while cross-
ing tower A, dries the adsorbent material dragging away the humidity through the PVB solenoid
valve and the silencers. At the end of this stage the adsorption material of tower A is completely
regenerated.
Stage D The solenoid valve a PVA is closed and then through the regeneration nozzle tower A is pres-
surized again up to the working pressure. The sum of stages C + D equals a half cycle time. At
the end the cycle starts up’ again from phase A.

When the LED is flashing it means the alarm went off for a high DewPoint. The function can
be activated only if the DewPoint probe is installed – optional – and only after having cor-
rectly set the relating DIP-SWITCH (see Section 6.9).
The LED flashes when the towers did not switch properly. This alarm is particularly impor-

dryer. The function can be enabled only if the pressure switch kit is installed – optional – and
only after having correctly set the relating DIP-SWITCH (see Section 6.9).
If the “SERVICE” LED and the LED of the flow diagram are flashing at the same time, it
means that the dryer inlet filter is clogged and therefore it must be replaced. This alarm
does not affect the operation of the dryer, but maintenance interventions are needed.
Please refer to the User and Maintenance manual of the filter itself.
If the “SERVICE” LED and the LED of the flow diagram are flashing at the same time, it

Only qualified personnel can perform the adjustment changes are made.
Before any changes are made verify that:
• The machine has no parts under voltage and that it cannot be re-con-
nected to the electrical supply.
The modification to the operating parameters through the variation of the position of the DIP-
SWITCHES will be active only when the dryer starts up again.

MAINTENANCE, TROUBLESHOOTING, SPARES AND DISMANTLING
The user that intervenes to the machine must wear hearing protection before to operate into the dryer.
Each employee must select proper PPD (Personal Protection Device) hearing protector (earmuffs, ear
canal caps and earplugs) in order to prevent any uneasiness that could cause dangerous situation for
him.
DAILY
• Check if the inlet filter condensate drain works regularly.
• Check the clogging state of the filters by reading the differential pressure gauge installed.
• Check that the tower switching operation takes place correctly and in the set cycle times.
• Check that the differential pressure gauge, of the regenerating tower, indicates 0 bar.
43
DHL HEATLESS REGENERATIVE DRYER SECTION 7
7.2 TROUBLESHOOTING
The troubleshooting and the eventual checks have to be performed by qualified personnel.
We suggest enabling the TEST modality to make troubleshooting operations easier
(see Section 6.11) and gradually verify that the operating steps are performed correctly.
Maintenance personnel must wear hearing protection while operating the dryer. Each employee must
select proper PPD (Personal Protection Device) hearing protector (earmuffs, ear canal caps and ear-
plugs) in order to prevent any discomfort or damage to the operator’s hearing..
