2. Configurazione e installazione

Proper installation is crucial for the safe and efficient operation of your VIAIR Onboard Air System. If you are not confident in performing the installation yourself, it is recommended to seek professional assistance.

2.1 Precauzioni di sicurezza

• Prima di iniziare qualsiasi lavoro elettrico, scollegare sempre la batteria del veicolo.
• Wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE), including eye protection.
• Assicurarsi che l'area di installazione sia ben ventilata.
• Never exceed the maximum operating pressure of 200 PSI.

2.2 Componenti di montaggio

Select a secure, dry, and well-ventilated location for mounting the air tank and compressors. Avoid areas exposed to excessive heat, moisture, or road debris. The compressors should be mounted in an upright position to ensure proper cooling and operation.

• Serbatoio d'aria: Securely fasten the 2.5-gallon air tank using appropriate hardware. Ensure it is protected from potential impact.
• Compressori: Mount the two 444C compressors to a stable surface, minimizing vibration. Ensure adequate airflow around the compressors for cooling.

2.3 Cablaggio elettrico

Connect the compressors to the vehicle's electrical system. Use heavy-gauge wiring suitable for the 40 Amp draw of the system. Install an inline fuse or circuit breaker close to the battery for protection.

• Connect the positive (+) wire from the compressors to a fused 12V power source.
• Connect the negative (-) wire from the compressors to a good chassis ground.
• Wire the pressure switch to control the compressors, ensuring they turn on when tank pressure drops below a set point and off when it reaches the maximum.

2.4 Air Line Connections

Connect all air lines using appropriate fittings. Ensure all connections are tight and sealed to prevent air leaks.

• Connect the output of both compressors to the air tank.
• Install the pressure regulator on the output side of the air tank, if desired, to control output pressure.
• Connect the 30ft coil hose to a quick-connect fitting on the system.
• Apply thread sealant to all NPT fittings to ensure an airtight seal.

3. Guida operativa

This section outlines the basic steps for operating your VIAIR Dual Stealth Black 444C Onboard Air System for tire inflation and other pneumatic tasks.

3.1 Avvio iniziale

• Dopo l'installazione, ricollegare la batteria del veicolo.
• Turn on the system's power switch (if installed). The compressors should begin to fill the air tank until the pressure switch reaches its cut-off pressure (up to 200 PSI).
• Listen for any air leaks and check all connections.

3.2 Gonfiaggio pneumatici

• Connect the tire inflation gun to the coil hose.
• Attach the inflation gun's chuck to the tire valve stem.
• Monitor the pressure on the 200 PSI gauge integrated into the inflation gun.
• Inflate the tire to the desired pressure. Release the trigger to stop airflow.
• Disconnect the inflation gun from the tire valve and then from the coil hose.

3.3 Regolazione della pressione

The included 0-220 PSI pressure regulator allows you to control the output air pressure for specific tools or applications. Adjust the regulator knob to set the desired working pressure.

4. Manutenzione

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your VIAIR Onboard Air System.

4.1 Draining Moisture from Air Tank

Moisture can accumulate inside the air tank, leading to corrosion and reduced performance. It is essential to drain the tank regularly, especially in humid environments.

• With the system depressurized, open the drain cock at the bottom of the air tank.
• Allow all accumulated moisture to drain completely.
• Close the drain cock securely.

4.2 Checking Connections and Fittings

Periodically inspect all air line connections, electrical wiring, and mounting hardware for tightness and signs of wear or damage.

• Check for air leaks using soapy water on all fittings and connections. Bubbles indicate a leak.
• Assicurarsi che tutti i collegamenti elettrici siano sicuri e privi di corrosione.
• Verify that the compressors and air tank are still securely mounted.

4.3 Compressor Air Filters

Inspect and clean or replace the air filters on the compressors as needed. Clogged filters can reduce compressor efficiency and lifespan.
