NOTE

Items [2] to [5] are optional or may be existing items

of plant. Refer to your Ingersoll Rand distributor /

representative for specic recommendations.

LOCATION IN THE PLANT

NOTE

Ensure that the unit is wired for proper voltage before

installation.

The compressor can be installed on any level oor capable

of supporting it. A dry, well ventilated area where the

atmosphere is clean is recommended. A minimum of 1m (3ft)

should be left all around machine for adequate service access

and ventilation.

Adequate clearance needs to be allowed around and above

the machine to permit safe access for specied maintenance

tasks.

Ensure that the machine is positioned securely and on a

stable foundation. Any risk of movement should be removed

by suitable means, especially to avoid strain on any rigid

discharge piping.

CAUTION

Screw type compressors [1] should not be installed in

air systems with reciprocating compressors without

means of isolation such as a common receiver tank. It is

recommended that both types of compressor be piped

to a common receiver using individual air lines.

CAUTION

The use of plastic bowls on line lters and other plastic

air line components can be hazardous. Their safety can

be aected by either synthetic coolants or the additives

used in mineral oils. Ingersoll Rand recommends that

only lters with metal bowls should be used on any

pressurised system.

CAUTION

The standard compressor unit is not suitable for

operation in temperatures liable to cause freezing as

Condensate water is liable to be produced in the after

cooler and receiver where tted. Refer to your Ingersoll

Rand distributor for further information.

DISCHARGE PIPING

Discharge piping should be at least as large as the discharge

connection of the compressor. All piping and ttings should

be suitably rated for the discharge pressure.

It is essential when installing a new compressor [1], to review

the total air system. This is to ensure a safe and eective

total system. One item which should be considered is liquid

carryover. Installation of air dryers [3] is always good practice

since properly selected and installed they can reduce any

liquid carryover to zero.

It is good practice to locate an isolation valve close to the

compressor and to install line lters [4].

It is a requirement for air dryers covered under Aircare

that correctly sized Ingersoll Rand pre and afterlters are

installed.

ELECTRICAL DATA

An independent electrical isolator or disconnect should be

installed adjacent to the compressor.

Feeder cables/wires should be sized by the customer/

electrical contractor to ensure that the circuit is balanced

and not overloaded by other electrical equipment. The

length of wiring from a suitable electrical feed point is

critical as voltage drops may impair the performance of the

compressor.

Feeder cables / wires connections to isolator or disconnect

should be tight and clean.

The applied voltage must be compatible with the motor and

compressor data plate ratings.

The control circuit transformer has dierent voltage tappings.

Ensure that these are set for the specic applied voltage prior

to starting.

CAUTION

Never test the insulation resistance of any part of

the machines electrical circuits, including the motor

without completely disconnecting the electronic

controller (where tted).

CAUTION

Ensure that the motor rotates in the correct direction as

indicated by direction arrows.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

GENERAL OPERATION

The compressor is an electric motor driven, single stage

screw compressor, complete with accessories piped, wired

and baseplate mounted. It is a totally self contained air

compressor package.

The standard compressor is designed to operate in an

ambient range of 35.6°F - 104°F (2°C to 40°C). The maximum

temperature is applicable up to a maximum elevation

of 3280ft (1000m) above sea level. Above this altitude

signicant reduction in maximum allowable ambient

temperature is required.

Compression in the screw type air compressor is created by

the meshing of two (male & female) helical rotors.

The air/coolant mixture discharges from the compressor

into the separation system. This system removes all but a

few PPM of the coolant from the discharge air. The coolant

is returned to the cooling system and the air passes through

the aftercooler and out of the compressor.

Cooling air is moved through the coolers by the cooling fan

and discharged from the machine.

CAUTION

Cooling air is drawn in at the end of the machine

package passing through the lter and cooler before

being discharged from the top of the machine. Care

should be taken to avoid blocking the airow, or

causing any restriction in excess of the maximum

backpressure allowed for ducting.

Do not direct the airow at face or eyes.

By cooling the discharge air, much of the water vapour

naturally contained in the air is condensed and may be

drained from the downstream piping and equipment.

The coolant system consists of a sump, cooler, thermostatic

valve and a lter. When the unit is operating, the coolant is

pressurized and forced to the compressor bearings.

The compressor load control system is automatic on-o line.

This allows the compressor to maintain a set discharge line

pressure by varying output capacity to match the system

demand. The unit is provided with an automatic stop and

restart system for use in plants where the air demand varies

suciently to allow a compressor to shut down and save

power. Signicant system volume will assist this and is

recommended.

When the compressor is equipped with the optional dryer,

the dryer will cycle on and o with the compressor.

WARNING

When the unit stops running as the result of low air

demand, normally indicated by auto restart light, it

may restart and return to load at any time.

Safety of operation is provided as the compressor will

shut down if excessive temperatures or electrical overload

conditions should occur.

CAUTION

This unit is not designed or intended to operate when

contaminated with silicone. Lubricants, greases or

other items containing silicone should not be used on

this unit.

CAUTION

LOW DEMAND APPLICATIONS

During periods of low demand, the compressor may

not reach its normal operating temperature. Sustained

operation at low demand can result in the build up

of condensate in the coolant. If this situation occurs,

the lubricating characteristics of the coolant can be

impaired which may lead to damage of the compressor.

THE COMPRESSOR SHOULD BE ALLOWED AMPLE

LOADED RUNNING TIME OF AT LEAST 10 MINUTES PER

HOUR DURING NORMAL DAILY USE.

COMPRESSOR CONTROLS

DIRECT ONLINE STARTING:

The compressor is equipped for Automatic Start & Stop

Control.When the receiver tank pressure reaches the factory

pre–set maximum pressure, the pressure switch stops the

unit. When the receiver tank pressure drops below the factory

pre–set minimum. The pressure switch resets and restarts the

unit.

The pressure switch cover can be removed by unscrewing the

two screws holding the cover.

PRESSURE SWITCH ADJUSTMENT:

The compressor package will cut–in and cut–out at factory

preset pressure settings. Adjust the pressure switch only if

absolutely necessary. Adjustments are to be carried out only

when the switch is mounted, under pressure and voltage–

free.

WARNING

High voltage is present at the pressure switch contacts

when the power supply is connected. Disconnect,

lock and tag main power supply before making

adjustments.

WARNING

Do not adjust the pressure switch to exceed the

maximum discharge pressure of the unit.

NOTE

When replacing the pressure switch cover, ensure the

selector knob on the cover and the lever on the switch

are both in the ”OFF” position.

NOTE

When the compressor is equipped with the optional

dryer and lters, the pressure switch dierential should

be increased 10psi to account for the added pressure

drop of the lters and dryer.

ROUTINE MAINTENANCE

This section refers to the various components which require

periodic maintenance and replacement.

It should be noted that the intervals between service

requirement may be signicantly reduced as a consequence

of poor operating environment. This would include eects of

atmospheric contamination and extremes of temperature.

The SERVICE/MAINTENANCE CHART indicates the

various components’ descriptions and the intervals when

maintenance has to take place. Oil capacities, etc., can be

found in the PRODUCT INFORMATION SHEET.

Compressed air can be dangerous if incorrectly handled.

Before doing any work on the unit, ensure that all pressure

is vented from the system and that the machine cannot be

started accidentally.

CAUTION

Before beginning any work on the compressor, open,

lock and tag the main electrical disconnect and close

the isolation valve on the compressor discharge.

Vent pressure from the unit by slowly unscrewing the

coolant ll cap one turn. Unscrewing the ll cap opens

a vent hole, drilled in the cap, allowing pressure to

release to atmosphere. Do not remove the ll cap until

all pressure has vented from the unit. Also vent piping

by slightly opening the drain valve. When opening the

drain valve or the coolant ll cap, stand clear of the

valve discharge and wear appropriate eye protection.

Ensure that maintenance personnel are properly trained,

competent and have read the Maintenance Manuals.

Prior to attempting any maintenance work, ensure that:-

all air pressure is fully discharged and isolated from the

system. If the automatic blowdown valve is used for this

purpose, then allow enough time for it to complete the

operation.

the machine cannot be started accidentally or otherwise.

all residual electrical power sources (mains and battery)

are isolated.

This unit is not designed or intended to operate when

contaminated with silicone. lubricants, greases or other

items containing silicone should not be used on this

unit.

COOLER CLEANING PROCEDURE

Stop the machine, electrically isolate and vent all trapped

pressure.

Remove the top cover to obtain access to the cooler.

Clean the cooler.

Rebuild in reverse order.

BELT CHECKING AND ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURE

Check belt tension occasionally, especially if looseness is

suspected. A quick check to determine if adjustment is

proper may be made by observing the slack side of the belt

for a slight bow when the unit is in operation.

If a slight bow is evident, the belt is usually adjusted

satisfactorily.

A belt tension measurement device can be used to determine

the tension of the belt.

Belt tensioning can be achieved by loosening the airend

anchor screws, a belt tensioning bolt is provided to aid in

moving the airend.

Follow the procedures outlined below to correctly set and

measure belt tension.

Lay a straight edge across the top outer surface of the

belt drive frompulley to sheave.

At the center of the span, perpendicular to the belt, apply

pressure to the outer surface of the belt with a tension gauge.

Force the belt to the deection indicated in the table below,

and compare the reading on the tension gauge to the gures

shown.-Belt tension

ELECTRIC DRAIN VALVE

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

The Electric Drain Valve removes condensed water and oil

from the moisture sepearator. Additional drains may be

installed throughout your compressed air system, including

aftercoolers, lters, drip legs and dryers.

The Electric Drain Valve operates on a timer which can be

set to automatically drain the air receiver tank at operator–

determined intervals.

Key features include:

100% continuous duty

NEMA 4 enclosure

Adjustable time on (0.5 – 10 seconds)

Adjustable time o (0.5 – 45 minutes)

Stainless steel operator

LED to indicate electrical power is on

LED to indicate valve is open

Manual override

OPERATION

1. Open the strainer ball valve.

Strainer ball valve

OPEN CLOSED

2. Set the “time o” and “time on” knobs. See TIMER SETTINGS

(below) for an explanation of the settings.

3. During compressor operation, check for air leaks.

TIMER SETTINGS

The “time o” setting determines the interval between

cycles from 30 seconds to 45 minutes. The “time on”

setting determines the actual time the compressor drains

condensate. The timer’s cycle rate and drain opening time

should be adjusted to open just long enough to discharge

the condensate. The timer is properly set when it opens and

discharges condensate and then vents air for approximately

one second before closing. Adjustments may be made

depending on many factors, including humidity and duty

cycle.

PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE

For optimum performance from your dryer, follow the

periodic maintenance schedule described below.

WEEKLY

CONDENSATE DRAINS

Verify that the condensate drains are

operating correctly.

EVERY 4 MONTHS

CONDENSER

Remove any dust from the con-denser

ns.

COMPRESSOR

Make sure compressor power

consumption complies with data plate

specications.

YEARLY

CONDENSATE DRAINS

Completely disassemble the drains

and clean all their components.

AIR FILTER

Replace air lter element.

MOISTURE SEPARATOR MAINTENANCE

The moisture separator will operate indenitely under

normal working conditions, however at some time it may be

necessary to replace the seals should the housing leak.

Isolate the housing from the air supply.

Fully depressurize in drain bowl as appropriate.

Unscrew bowl and remove. If pressure has not been

completely released from the housing, air will escape

from the warning hole giving an audible alarm. Screw

back bowl and repeat instruction 2 before attempting

again. Should resistance to unscrewing be experienced,

provision is made for a ’C’ spanner to t onto the ribs of

the bowl.

Check condition of bowl seal and replace if necessary.

Clean screw threads.

Ret bowl with ’O’ ring seal.

Repressurize and check for leaks. If leaks occur they will

most probably be from the bowl ’O’ ring. Depressurize

housing and remove ’O’ ring as stated above and inspect

and clean. Ensure that mating surfaces are clean and

then ret ’O’ ring and repressurize.

AIR FILTER MAINTENANCE

In order to ensure optimum compressed air quality the lter

element should be replaced as follows. (Used lter elements

must be disposed of in accordance with local regulations.)
