Sullair Air Care Seminars are 3---day courses that provide hands---on instruction
in the proper operation, maintenance and service of Sullair equipment.
Individual seminars on Industrial compressors and compressor electrical
systems are presented at regular intervals throughout the year at a dedicated
training facility at Sullair’s corporate headquarters in Michigan City, Indiana.
Instruction includes discussion of the function and installation of Sullair service
parts, troubleshooting of the most common problems, and actual equipment
operation. The seminars are recommended for maintenance and service
personnel.

5.5 CAPACITY CONTROL SYSTEM, FUNCTIONAL
DESCRIPTION
Refer to Figure 5 --- 3. The purpose of the capacity
control system is to regulate the compressed air
supply to the demand. It consists of an inlet
throttling valve and hydraulic actuator assembly,
and a discharge blowdown valve and muffler as-
sembly, all controlled by the Supervisor II. The dif-
ferent phases of operation are described below (for
illustration purposes, 100 psi service operation will
be used):
START MODE -- 0 TO 5 PSIG (0 TO 0.34 BAR)
When the “I” or “A” pads are depressed, the unit
starts. The blowdown valve remains open, pre-
venting air compression at the HP pipework, and
the inlet valve remains nearly closed (hydro actua-
tor retracted), shutting off inlet air unit. The valve
flapper is adjusted to produce a maximum vacuum
at the compressor flange of 25 in (63.5 cm) Hg in its
nearly closed position, thereby avoiding an exces-
sive compressor discharge temperature.
FULL LOAD MODE -- 75 TO 100 PSIG (5.2-- 6.9
BAR)
After a one second interval, the Supervisor II
closes the blowdown valve and opens the inlet
valve (hydro actuator extended), allowing the
package to intake and compress at 100% capacity.
UNLOAD MODE -- 100+ PSIG (6.9+ BAR)
If the demand of compressed air falls below that
supplied by the package, the line pressure (P2) in-
creases. When the line pressure exceeds the 100
psig (6.9 bar) setting programmed in the Supervi-

6.2 PURPOSE OF CONTROLS
EMERGENCY STOP SWITCH Pushing in this switch, found adjacent to the Supervisor
II, cuts all AC outputs from the latter and de---energizes
the starter. A fault message (E STOP) is displayed by
the Supervisor II until the button is pulled out and the
“O” pad is pressed.
MOTOR O/L RESET Momentarily pushing this button, found on the thermal
overload element housing, re---closes the latter’s con-
tacts after a current overload takes place. Please be
aware that the elements must be allowed to cool suffi-
ciently before resetting.
SUMP SIGHT GLASS Indicates level of lubricant in the sump. Located on the
sump side, it should show half full (compressor
stopped) for proper oil level.
DISCHARGE CHECK VALVE Isolates compressor from field pipework when shut
down. Located between the HPsilencer and the after-
cooler.
WATER PRESS SWITCH De---energizes the starter, via the Supervisor II, if the
water pressure falls below 5 psi (0.3 bar). This switch is
not adjustable.
PRESS RELIEF VALVES Found on the discharge pipework of both LP and HP
stages, they vent the compressed air to atmosphere in
case of an over pressure condition --- 55 and 165 psi
(3.8 and 11.4 bar), respectively. These devices are
safety backups to the Supervisor II when an Unloaded
state is required.
INLET VALVE ASSEMBLY The hydraulically operated butterfly valve throttles the
air flow entering the unit inlet flange --- LP stage. A
4---way electric solenoid valve loads and unloads the hy-
draulic actuator, in response to Supervisor II com-
mands.
BALANCE PISTON ASSEMBLY The pneumatically operated 3---way solenoid valve in-
jects air pressure into the LP and HP air ends balancing
pistons. A pilot valve does the required switching.
BLOWDOWN VALVE ASSEMBLY The pneumatically operated 2---way solenoid valve
vents compressed air (HP discharge) to atmosphere
through a muffler. An electric 3---way solenoid valve pro-
vides the required air (HP discharge) signal.
COOLANT GLOBE VALVES Provided to regulate the flow of cooling water through
the Inter, After, and Oil coolers.
WATER REGULATOR VALVE (OPTIONAL) Provided to maintain a constant temperature supply of
cooling water to the heat exchangers, as well as shut the
water flow off when the package is not running.
FLOW SIGHT GLASS Allows visual check of LP, HP cooling jacket water flow.
DRAIN GLOBE VALVES Furnished as manual backups to automatic (float ---type)
drain valves used in the condensate separator vessels.
Also used as lubricant sump drain valve.
