Introduction Thank you for purchasing a QCS emulsion separator. Please read these instructions carefully before installing your QCS unit and putting it into service. Trouble free functioning of QCS emulsion separators - and thus reliable condensate treatment - can only be guaranteed if the recommendations and conditions stated here are adhered to. Applications QCS separators are designed for the treatment of demulsifiable compressor condensates in compliance with legal requirements. Your local "lower -level water authority" should be notified about the operation of an oil/water separator. /1\ CAUTION Oil -contaminated condensate. Oil -contaminated condensate contains substances that are hazardous both to health and the environment. These substances may cause irritation or damage to the skin, eyes and mucous linings. Oil -contaminated condensate must not be allowed to get into the sewer system, water bodies or soil. Contaminated objects must be cleaned or disposed of according to the legal regulations. Section I - General Information Wastewater destined for indirect discharge must not exceed a hydrocarbon concentration of 20 ppm. Please note that the national legal limit values for indirect discharge may vary regionally. ♦ Media / ambient temperature: +41...+140 °F ♦ QCS separators are suitable for stationary application only. Section I - General Information Safety Qom' NOTICE It is absolutely essential to observe these instructions for installation and operation. WARNING Compressed air. Contact with quickly or suddenly escaping compressed air or with bursting plant components carries a risk of serious injury or death. Only use pressure -resistant installation material. Ensure that condensate cannot squirt or splash onto persons or objects. ♦ Non -observance of these safety guidelines can result in injuries or damage to devices. For installation, the national regulations and safety instructions in force also need to be observed. ♦ Transport the QCS unit only when it is empty. ♦ Do not install the QCS outdoors ♦ Protect the QCS against direct exposure to sunlight. • Take measures to ensure that oil or untreated condensate cannot enter the sewer system in the event of unit damage. ♦ Do not fill any foreign liquid or substances into the preseparation tank since this may impair the filter function. ♦ Only use original manufacturer replacement filter sets. ♦ In the event of significant differences compared with the specifications of the general technical approval, e.g. the employment of non -original filters, the approval no longer covers the usability of the QCS product. In such cases, individual approval of the responsible local authority will be required. Moreover, there will be no entitlement to the remedy of defects within a 2 -year period. The operator's responsibilities include installation, maintenance, repair and cleaning. ♦ These tasks must be carried out by an authorized technician, as required by law, unless the operator himself possesses the necessary qualifications and entitlements. ♦ The statutory limits for indirect clean - water discharge into the sewer system may be subject to regional variations. ♦ All maintenance reports must be filed and presented to the responsible local authority, if requested. • The operator must ensure that the QCS oil/water separator is in a leaktight condition and functioning correctly. ♦ Check the oil/water separator for leaks regularly. ♦ Check the outflowing clean water every week using the reference test kit. ♦ Always keep a spare filter set.
