problem

problem caused

solution

Poor dew-point 

performance

Insufficient inlet pressure

4 barg (58psig) minimum inlet pressure required to operate, if 

not, check and restore system pressure

Electrical fault

Ensure the power is on and the dryer front panel is illuminated; 

check the dryer is cycling correctly

Moist or contaminated 

 

desiccant

Eliminate the cause of contamination, replace desiccant 

cartridges (do not re-use)

Excessive inlet air temprature

controller not  

functioning correctly

Ensure the controller is powered up, check the on screen column 

status to ensure it is powering the solenoid valves during 

operation

insufficient inlet pressure

4barg (58psig) minium inlet pressure required to operate, if not, 

check and restore system pressure

controller not illuminated

Check power supply to the dryer, check fuse and replace.

failure to de-pressurize  

when cycling

Control valve not functioning correctly; if there is power to the 

coil, replace valve. Consult controller display

outlet flow stops

Check inlet air supply

failure to initialize dryer

Switch off and restart dryer. Ensure dryer is pressurized before 

powering up to allow the dryer  to initialize before operation.
