STATIC SENSITIVE DEVICES

STATIC SENSITIVE DEVICES CAN BE DAMAGED BY ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE.

YOU CAN MINIMIZE THE CHANCES OF DESTROYING SUCH DEVICES BY:

1. KNOWING THAT THERE IS A POTENTIAL STATIC SENSITIVE PROBLEM.

2. ADHERING TO THE GUIDELINES LISTED BELOW FOR HANDLING THEM.

3. USING RECOMMENDED PACKAGING AND BENCH TECHNIQUES.

FOLLOW THESE PRACTICES TO MINIMIZE DAMAGE TO STATIC SENSITIVE

DEVICES.

1. DO NOT WELD ON THIS EQUIPMENT AND/OR ASSOCIATED PIPING. THE CONTROL

IS SENSITIVE TO ELECTRICAL GROUND LOOP VOLTAGES.

2. DISCHARGE PERSONAL STATIC BEFORE HANDLING DEVICE. (USE GROUNDING

WRIST STRAP.)

3. MINIMIZE HANDLING.

4. HANDLE STATIC SENSITIVE DEVICES BY THE BODY ONLY. DO NOT TOUCH ANY
CONNECTORS. (USE MICRO-CHIP EXTRACTION AND INSERTION TOOLS.)

5. KEEP PARTS IN ORIGINAL CONTAINERS UNTIL READY FOR USE.

6. DO NOT SLIDE STATIC SENSITIVE DEVICE OVER ANY SURFACE.

7. USE ANTI-STATIC CONTAINERS FOR HANDLING AND TRANSPORT.

8. KEEP PLASTIC, VINYL AND POLYSTYRENE FOAM OUT OF THE WORK AREA.

9. WHEN REMOVING ASSEMBLIES HANDLE ONLY BY NON-CONDUCTIVE EDGES AND

NEVER TOUCH OPEN CONNECTORS EXCEPT AT A STATIC FREE WORK STATION.
PLACING SHORTING STRIPS ON CONNECTOR USUALLY PROVIDES COMPLETE
PROTECTION TO INSTALLED STATIC SENSITIVE DEVICES.

10. HANDLE STATIC SENSITIVE DEVICES ONLY AT A STATIC-FREE WORK STATION.

11. USE ONLY ANTI-STATIC TYPE SOLDER-SUCKERS.

12. USE ONLY GROUNDED TIP SOLDERING IRONS.

2.11 Remote Alarm Connection
WARNING!
Most standard air and gas dryers are furnished with
contacts for remote alarms. These contacts should be
wired to an audible alarm and/or to an area where they
are continuously monitored. When these contacts are
not used, the dryer must be visually checked every
two (2) hours for existence of any possible malfunc-
tion. Immediate action must be taken to correct any
indicated malfunction. Failure to do so may result in
an upset condition that could damage the equipment.
Failure to protect the dryer from aerosols and liquid
condensate will void warranties.
Remote alarm terminals (A1, A2, A3) are provided for
connection of a customer-supplied remote alarm circuit (if
desired). Exercise CAUTION for Static Sensitive Devices
before making alarm connections. Should an alarm situa-
tion or loss of the dryer’s power supply occur, the remote
alarm relay will de-energize to transfer contact from A3 to
A2 for remote alarm actuation.
NOTE: A customer supplied separate power source of
sufficient voltage, (not to exceed 120 VAC) must be con-
nected to terminal A1 for remote alarm actuation.

Exhaust port, located on the centerline of the Valve
Flange, item 1B of the Actuator Subassembly. This
will pilot the valve open.
3. A) Clean and inspect the valve seats and poppets
for damage and excessive wear. Use a mirror
and do not disassemble the valve at this time.
B) Pneumatically actuate the valve from open to
closed and closed to open. Watch for any ten-
dency to bind, erratic operations, and failure to
make a complete closure.
C) If the valve operation, seat and poppet appear
to be satisfactory, proceed to close and cap the

pressure and leak check the valve.
4. A) If no problem has been experienced in step 3
above it is recommended that the valve be

Troubleshooting
Guide

WARNING!
Ensure that the Dryer and any associated Prefilters and Afterfilters are valve isolated and fully depressurized
before attempting to remove or disassemble any components or subassemblies. Failure to do so may result in
serious personal injury and/or equipment damage.
WARNING!
Some of the following troubleshooting checks require entering the Dryer Control System enclosure while the
Dryer’s electrical power supply is energized. Therefore, a potential electrical shock hazard exists. These checks
should be conducted by a qualified electrical technician or a Pneumatic Products Authorized Field Service Engi-
neer ONLY. The Dryer’s electrical power supply must be de-energized before any electrical maintenance or repair
work is conducted.
CAUTION: Do not open or enter the Dryer Control System without exercising proper precautions for Static Sensitive
Devices. DO NOT remove the factory programmed microcomputer chip or any I.C. chip from the ADC Base Board. Im-
proper removal or handling will cause irreparable damage to these highly Static Sensitive Components. Damage to these
components will render the Dryer Control System inoperative until replacement is accomplished by a Pneumatic Products
Authorized Field Service Engineer. DO NOT remove the program identification sticker from the microcomputer chip.
IMPORTANT: Water molecules can diffuse through a pinhole size leak even though pressure inside the piping is several
hundred PSIG. It is not at all uncommon to have a minute pinhole leak in a gas line cause an increase in dew point from
-40°F to -10°F at a distance of forty or more feet downstream of the leak.
CAUTION: Do not change settings of DIP switches. DIP switches are factory set to meet dryer design specifications. Im-
proper DIP switch settings may cause the Dryer Control System to operate erratically, or malfunction. Contact your local
Pneumatic Products Sales Representative to obtain the correct DIP switch settings for your dryer.

When connected in two-wire mode, the bus wires may be
connected to pins 1 & 2, Pins 3 & 4 or pins 7 & 8. Also
note that when in two-wire mode, one termination resis-
tor jumper should be removed to prevent the termination
from being too low in value. It may be stored on the top
set of pins on J1. Those pins are not connected. Please
make sure that your connections are properly made. This
connector is an 8-pin RJ45 connector. Mating connec-
tors are not supplied. The electrical signals supplied by
this connector are TIA/EIA-485A compliant. A good cable
should be used to transmit signals such as Belden 3109A
or equivalent.
Operation
Operation of the SMarT Controller will vary with the firm-
ware installed in the main microprocessor. Please see the
operating instructions for your dryer to review the dryer
state diagram and other operating information for this
controller. Interface commands are also explained in the
firmware documentation.

sure the IP address type on page one of the net-

desired dryer information parameters on the following screens.
2. The dryer can not be accessed using the network
name e.g., http://adc-hl/
Substitute the dryer network name with the dryer IP
address.
a. If that solves the problem your network is block-
ing NetBIOS packets, which is what the dryer
uses to supply its network name. Either connect
to the dryer using the IP address or modify the
network hardware to prevent it from blocking
NetBIOS packets.
b. If that doesn’t solve the problem see trouble
shooting tip #3 below.
3. The dryer can not be accessed using the IP address
e.g., http://192.168.1.2/
Check your network connections:
a. Make sure that your network does not have a
firewall blocking packets between the device
connecting to the dryer and the dryer. It is rec-
ommended that you place the device connecting
to the dryer and the dryer on the same subnet
without any routers/firewalls between devices.
Network Hubs/Switches are OK as long as they
do not have built in firewalls.
b. If you are trying to connect to the dryer on a
company network and the device you are at-
tempting to connect to the dryer with is not on
the company network you may need to connect
to your company’s VPN prior to connecting to the
dryer.
