The COMPRESSOR indicator will flash
once per second during the purging
process. The escaping air is audible inside
the dehydrator during this time. The
purge event ends when the lower
operational pressure is reached. The
purge valve will then close, and the unit
will activate to re-pressurize the system.
If there is a leak in the distribution system
that causes the pressure to drop to the
lower operational pressure prior to the
scheduled system purge event, then the
scheduled event will not occur and the
system purge timer will be reset.

INDICATORS

5.1
PRESSURE
Gauge:
A 0-15 psig (0-1 bar)
pressure gauge is provided. This gauge
indicates pressure at the APD-D
dehydrator output fitting.
5.2
Operational
Indicators:
LED indicators
are provided to monitor unit operation.
POWER
(green): Illuminated when mains
power is present and unit is energized.
COMPRESSOR
(yellow): Illuminated when
compressor is active and pressurized dry
air is being supplied.
LOW
PRESSURE
(red): Illuminated when
the system pressure has dropped below
the low pressure alarm threshold.
HIGH
PRESSURE
(red): Illuminated when
the system pressure has dropped below
the low pressure alarm threshold. This
indicator is only active on models
configured with the high pressure alarm
option.
HUMIDITY
(red): Illuminated when the
system relative humidity has risen above
the humidity alarm threshold. This
indicator is only active on models
configured with the humidity alarm
option.
RUN
TIME
(red): Illuminated when the
system run time (active pumping time)
has exceeded the run time alarm
threshold. This indicator is only active on
models configured with the run time
alarm option.

DATA
PORT:
A USB port is supplied to
allow for downloading operational logs,
updating the unit’s installed options and
configuration,
and
updating
the
operational software in the field. These
features allow for option upgrades
without having to return the unit to the
factory, as well as remote troubleshooting
of the system using the operational logs.
