1.3 Piping connections 

A.  Air Inlet - Connect compressed air line from air source 

to air inlet. (Reference markings on dryer or, see callout 

drawing on pages 18 for air inlet/outlet connection 

locations)

  Refer to Serial Number Tag for maximum 

working pressure.  Do not exceed dryer’s Maximum Working 

Pressure.

NOTE:

Install dryer in air system at highest pressure possible (e.g. 

before pressure reducing valves).

NOTE

:

Install dryer at coolest compressed air temperature possible. 

Maximum inlet compressed air temperature: 110°F (43°C). 

If inlet air exceeds this temperature, precool the air with an 

aftercooler.  
B.  Air Outlet—Connect air outlet to downstream air lines.
C.  By-pass piping— 

If servicing the dryer without interrupting the air supply 

is desired, piping should include inlet and outlet valves 

and an air by-pass valve.

D.  Water-cooled models - cooling water inlet and outlet

1.  Connect cooling water supply to cooling water inlet.

2.  Connect cooling water return line to cooling water 

outlet connection.

NOTE:

 Strainer and water regulating valve are supplied on 

water-cooled models. Also, it is recommended to add water 

inlet/outlet temperature and pressure gauges to the water 

piping.

1.4  Electrical connections 

IMPORTANT:

 Use copper supply wires only.

A.  Dryer is designed to operate on the 

voltage, phase, and frequency listed on 

the serial number tag.

B.  If dryer is supplied with a cord and plug, 

install in a receptacle of proper voltage.

C.  Electrical entry on larger dryers is through a hole in the 

cabinet. It is located on the right side panel when facing 

the front of the unit. Connect power source to the 

terminal strip in the electrical enclosure as shown on the 

electrical schematic included with the dryer. 

 

If optional disconnect is supplied, use entry hole in 

disconnect enclosure.

NOTE:

 Refrigeration condensing unit is designed to run 

continuously and should NOT be wired to cycle on/off with 

the air compressor.

1.5 Moisture separator 

A.  Model 100:

 

Separator (and Oil Removal Filter where 

applicable) has an internal drain which 

automatically discharges collected 

condensate.

 

Models 125-750:

 

Separator (and Oil Removal Filter where applicable) has an 

external drain which automatically discharges collected 

condensate. 

 

NOTE:

 It may be desirable to pipe the condensate from 

the Automatic Drain outlet to a suitable drain.

B.  Model 100 with standard panel or optional I-Controller 

Level 1 ONLY:

 

Separator has a knurled fitting with flexible drain tubing 

attached.  Be sure knurled fitting is tightened by turning 

counter-clockwise before operating dryer.

TO CLOSE

TURN COUNTERCLOCKWISE

C.  Models 125-750

 

For manual draining, convenient dryer depressurization, 

and drain valve maintenance, a three-way valve assembly 

is installed between the drain port on the moisture 

separator and the drain valve.  Models with the optional 

cold coalescing filter are equipped with a separate drain 

valve and three-way valve assembly.  On Models 125 and 

150, the three-way valve is panel mounted inside the 

dryer cabinet.  On Models 200-750, the three-way valve is 

mounted to the bottom of the separator vessel using a 

quick disconnect fitting.  

Review the following for proper 

drain function:
• 

Automatic Draining - Valve handle should be 

positioned parallel to the valve body (as shown), with 

the arrow on the handle pointing toward the drain 

valve.  In this position, condensate will flow from the 

bowl to the drain valve.

• 

Drain Isolation (Shutdown) - Valve handle shall be 

turned perpendicular to the valve body (rotate 90°).  

In this position, condensate flow is shutoff.

 

MRD100-150

Models 125-150

MRD200-750

Models 200-750

• 

Manual Draining - Drain valve handle shall be rotated 

slightly past the drain isolation position to allow 

throttling through the valve for manual discharge 

and depressurization.
