A good user manual

The rules should oblige the seller to give the purchaser an operating instrucion of AT&T D-320, along with an item. The lack of an instruction or false information given to customer shall constitute grounds to apply for a complaint because of nonconformity of goods with the contract. In accordance with the law, a customer can receive an instruction in non-paper form; lately graphic and electronic forms of the manuals, as well as instructional videos have been majorly used. A necessary precondition for this is the unmistakable, legible character of an instruction.

What is an instruction?

The term originates from the Latin word „instructio”, which means organizing. Therefore, in an instruction of AT&T D-320 one could find a process description. An instruction's purpose is to teach, to ease the start-up and an item's use or performance of certain activities. An instruction is a compilation of information about an item/a service, it is a clue.

Unfortunately, only a few customers devote their time to read an instruction of AT&T D-320. A good user manual introduces us to a number of additional functionalities of the purchased item, and also helps us to avoid the formation of most of the defects.

What should a perfect user manual contain?

First and foremost, an user manual of AT&T D-320 should contain:
- informations concerning technical data of AT&T D-320
- name of the manufacturer and a year of construction of the AT&T D-320 item
- rules of operation, control and maintenance of the AT&T D-320 item
- safety signs and mark certificates which confirm compatibility with appropriate standards

Why don't we read the manuals?

Usually it results from the lack of time and certainty about functionalities of purchased items. Unfortunately, networking and start-up of AT&T D-320 alone are not enough. An instruction contains a number of clues concerning respective functionalities, safety rules, maintenance methods (what means should be used), eventual defects of AT&T D-320, and methods of problem resolution. Eventually, when one still can't find the answer to his problems, he will be directed to the AT&T service. Lately animated manuals and instructional videos are quite popular among customers. These kinds of user manuals are effective; they assure that a customer will familiarize himself with the whole material, and won't skip complicated, technical information of AT&T D-320.

Why one should read the manuals?

It is mostly in the manuals where we will find the details concerning construction and possibility of the AT&T D-320 item, and its use of respective accessory, as well as information concerning all the functions and facilities.

After a successful purchase of an item one should find a moment and get to know with every part of an instruction. Currently the manuals are carefully prearranged and translated, so they could be fully understood by its users. The manuals will serve as an informational aid.

    3 A. INTRODUCTION AIR/TAK Refrigerated Compressed Air Dryers are of the hi gh-efficiency type, designed to effectively remove moisture from compressed air by means of a refrigerat ion process. The compressed air pressure dewpoint is reduced to 38°F and then reheated to prevent in-plant air lines from sweating. The 38°F dewpoint can be maintained [...]

    4 In keeping with good compressed air piping design, the air dryer should be installed on the downstream side of the air receiver and aftercooler. An AIR/TAK prefilter(s) for oil and dirt removal in stalled at the inlet of the dryer is recommended. Contamination can be present in a compress ed air system and can reduce the ability of the dryer heat[...]

    5 G. COMPRESSED AIR CIRCUIT 1. Air-to-Air Heat Exchanger: This unique high-efficiency heat exchanger is of a finned shell and tube design. The tubes are of high quality copper and are enhanced by outer fins of corrugated aluminum . The air is first directed into the shell of the heat exchanger and is baffled back and forth across the finned t ubes [...]

    6 The circuiting within the evaporator is serpent ined in such a manner as to guarantee a completely flooded evaporator. Each evaporator is designed to insure adequat e refrigerant velocity to eliminate the problem of oil return to the crankcase. 4. Expansion Valves: The thermostatic expansion valve (TXV) is used on Model D-320-A, and larger. This [...]

    8 I. START-UP After the installation of your air dryer at a su itable location, the following checks should be made: a) Bypass piping installed and valves set to bypass the dryer. b) Before start-up, the refrigerant analyzer gauge should indicate a dryer shutdown pressure of 125-175 PSIG for R-22 or 74-108 PSIG fo r R-134a for Models D-320-A throug[...]
