SECTION 1 GENERAL

INFORMATION

1.1 MODEL DESCRIPTION

The CO2-PG80 Purge Gas Generator is designed to remove

water and CO2 from a compressed air stream. This is done by

passing the air through beds of adsorbent media (using 13X

molecular sieve) which adsorbs both H2O and CO2.

1.2 SERIAL NUMBER CODING

1.3 DESCRIPTION OF OPERATION

The CO2-PG80 Purge Gas Generator uses the pressure swing

adsorption method of gas separation. This requires two

identical towers containing beds of adsorbent desiccant media.

Incoming wet, CO2 rich air enters the adsorber/dryer through

the inlet port, where energized SOLENOID VALVE A directs

the pressurized air stream to the bottom of DESICCANT

TOWER A containing active adsorbent. This adsorbent media

bed removes water vapor and CO2 gas from the air to better

than -100°F dew point and less than 1 PPM CO2 when

operated at catalog conditions. The dry and CO2 free air

leaving the top of DESICCANT TOWER A is directed to the

outlet through open CHECK VALVE A. PURGE ORIFICE B

and closed CHECK VALVE B allow a metered portion of the

processed air to flow into DESICCANT TOWER B being

regenerated. The open purge port on deenergized SOLENOID

VALVE B and the purge orifice reduce the pressurized dry air

down close to atmospheric pressure and regenerate the

adsorbent media by removing the accumulated water vapor

and CO2 and carrying it out the open purge port.

The two solenoid valves are controlled by a solid state timer.

After 30 seconds, the media in DESICCANT TOWER B is

regenerated, and the solid state cycle timer causes the process

to instantly reverse, with TOWER B adsorbing and TOWER A

regenerating. The following flow schematic (FIG 1)

demonstrates the adsorber/dryer operation.

SECTION 2 SAFETY

INSTRUCTIONS

2.1 INSTALLATION SAFETY

Before starting or installing the CO2-PG80 Purge Gas

Generator, be sure that all power to the unit is off, valves are

shut, and the air circuit is at atmospheric pressure. DO NOT

remove, repair, or replace any component, control filter, or part,

while the unit is energized or the air circuit is under pressure.

Unplug unit and de-pressurize the unit before starting

installation or maintenance procedures.

The CO2-PG80 is rated NEMA 1.

2.2 OPERATION SAFETY

DO NOT OPERATE THE CO2-PG80 PURGE GAS

GENERATOR AT COMPRESSED AIR PRESSURES ABOVE

150 PSIG. UNIT FAILURE, INJURY AND EQUIPMENT

DAMAGE COULD RESULT

CAUTION:

EXCEPT as otherwise specified by the manufacturer, this

product is specifically designed for compressed air service and

use with any other gas or liquid is a misapplication.

Manufacturer’s warranties are void in the event of a

misapplication and manufacturer assumes NO

RESPONSIBILITY for any resulting loss.

Before using equipment with fluids or gases other than air,

consult Altec AIR for written approval.

Note: Outlet flows shown above are maximum capacities and should not be exceeded for best performance. No outlet flow

metering valve or flow meter is installed on the adsorber/dryer and must be provided by the user. Purge flow is metered by

integral fixed purge orifices. Capacities are based on inlet conditions of 70°F, 100%RH, normal ambient CO2 levels of approx

350-375 ppm. Outlet concentration of CO2 will be less than 1 ppm and outlet dew point better than -100°F. If your flow,

temperature or pressure are different from above, consult factory for performance. Unless otherwise specified, a #32 orifice

set has been installed as standard.

4.2 LOCATION

DO NOT INSTALL THE UNIT IN AN ENVIRONMENT OF

CORROSIVE CHEMICALS, EXPLOSIVE GASES, OR AREAS

OF HIGH OR LOW AMBIENT TEMPERATURE (ABOVE 125°F

OR BELOW 33°F).

Install the unit indoors. Unit may be wall mounted or placed on

a table top.

4.3 INSTALL FILTERS

A coalescing filter is provided to be installed on the inlet to the

adsorber/dryer to remove entrained particulates, liquid moisture

and oil which can cause damage to the desiccant beds. A

particulate afterfilter is provided to be installed on the outlet of

the adsorber/dryer to remove any adsorbent media dust that

may migrate from the desiccant beds.

Using a wrench to keep inlet bulkhead fitting from turning,

install Inlet Filter Assy to left side of unit as shown in FIG 2

above. Similarly, install Outlet Filter Regulator Assy to Right

Side of unit.

4.4 MOUNTING

1. Table top

a. The unit comes with rubber feet installed on bottom

of cabinet for use on table top.

2. Wall mounting

a. Remove (6) cover screws and remove cover. While a

helper holds the unit at the mounting location, mark

the position of the (4) mounting holes at the back of

the cabinet. Mount the cabinet using these

mounting holes. Be sure to use proper wall mounting

anchors if mounting in drywall.

b. Reinstall cover.

4.5 ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

Before plugging in unit, check the unit nameplate for electrical

characteristics. Standard electrical characteristics are 115

volt, 1 phase, 50/60 Hz. Models operating on 230 volts are

available.

IMPORTANT!: No overload protection is provided in the

adsorber/dryer and unit should be plugged/wired into a

protected circuit.

4.6 PIPING AND CONNECTIONS

Inlet and outlet tubing should be appropriate for pressure and

temperature of operation. See specification chart for

inlet/outlet NPT thread size. Teflon tape should be used in the

makeup of joints to ensure a good, airtight fit of piping

components. Check all connections for leakage using soap

solution prior to putting unit into service.
