1.0 GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS

The compressor units use single-stage screw rotary air compressors with oil injection.
The system is self-bearing and does not require bolts or other devices to anchor it to the floor.
The unit is completely assembled in the factory; the necessary connections for setting it up are:
 connection to the power mains (see installation chapter)
 connection to the compressed air network (see installation chapter)

. Cod. 2200780019 01- Edition 05/2012 - 3

ENGLISH

2.0 INTENDED USE

The compressor has been built to supply compressed air for industrial use.
The machine cannot be used in premises where there is a risk of fire or explosion or where work is carried out which
releases substances into the environment which are dangerous with regard to safety (for example: solvents, inflammable
vapours, alcohol, etc.).
In particular the appliance cannot be used to produce air to be breathed by humans or used on direct contact with
foodstuffs. These uses are allowed if the compressed air produced is filtered by means of a suitable filtering system
(Consult the manufacturer for these special uses.)
This appliance must be used only for the purpose for which it was specifically designed.
All other uses are to be considered incorrect and therefore unreasonable.
The Manufacturer cannot be held responsible for any damage resulting from improper, incorrect or unreasonable use.

3.0 OPERATION
3.1 OPERATION FOR COMPRESSOR
The electric motor and the compressor unit are coupled by means of a belt transmission.
The compressor unit takes in the outside air through the suction valve. The intake air is filtered by the filter cartridge fitted
upstream from the intake valve. Inside the compressor unit, the air and the lubricating oil are compressed and sent to the
oil separating tank where the oil is separated from the compressed air; the air is then filtered again by the oil separating
cartridge to reduce the amount of suspended oil particles to a minimum. The machine is fitted with a suitable air-cooling
system.
The machine is protected by a special safety thermostat: if the oil temperature reaches 105 ÷ 110 °C (221 ÷ 230 °F )the
machine cuts out automatically.
3.2 OPERATION FOR DRYER
At the moment of use the air flows from the tank to the drier and is then dried and sent to the distribution network. Dryer
operation is described below.
The gaseous refrigerant coming from the evaporator (4) is sucked by the refrigeration compressor (1) and it is pumped
into the condenser (2). This one allows its condensation, eventually with the help of the fan (3); the condensed refrigerant
passes through the dewatering filter (8) and it expands through the capillary tube (7) and goes back to the evaporator
where it produces the refrigerating effect.
Due to the heat exchange with the compressed air which passes through the evaporator against the stream, the
refrigerant evaporates and goes back to the compressor for a new cycle.
The circuit is equipped with a bypass system for the refrigerant; this intervenes to adjust the available refrigerating
capacity to the actual cooling load.
This is achieved by injecting hot gas under the control of the valve (9): this valve keeps constant the pressure of the
refrigerant in the evaporator and therefore also the dew point never decreases below 0 °C (32 °F) in order to prevent the
condensate from freezing inside the evaporator.
The drier runs completely automatically; it is calibrated in the factory for a dew point of ~ 3 °C (37,4 °F) and therefore no
further calibrations are required.

4.0 GENERAL SAFETY STANDARDS

The appliance may be used only by specially trained and authorized personnel.
Any tampering with the machine or alterations not approved beforehand by the Manufacturer relieve the latter of
responsibility for any damage resulting from the above actions.
The removal of or tampering with the safety devices constitutes a violation of the European Standards on safety.
ATTENTION: UPSTREAM OF THE MACHINE INSTALLAN ISOLATOR KNIFE-SWITCH WITH AN AUTOMATIC
CUTOUT AGAINST CURRENT SURGES AND EQUIPPED WITH A DIFFERENTIAL DEVICE FOR CALIBRATIONS

22.0 CHANGING THE OIL

CAUTION: THIS OPERATION MUST BE DONE TOGETHER WITH THE OIL FILTER AND AIR FILTER EXCHANGE

BEFORE CARRYING OUT ANY MAINTENANCE JOBS IT IS OBLIGATORY TO STOP THE MACHINE AND
DISCONNECT IT FROM THE POWER MAINS AND FROM THE COMPRESSED AIR DISTRIBUTION NETWORK.
Oil changing is an important operation for the compressor:
if the lubrication of the bearings is not efficient, the compressor life will be short.
The oil must be changed when the machine is still warm, that is immediately after stopping it.
The suggestions listed below should be scrupulously followed.
After draining the old oil out of the machine Ref. 1 Fig. 25.
- Fill the oil manifold Ref. 2 Fig. 25 up to the level mark
- Close all the protections (cover and front protection)
- Start the compressor.
- After about 1 minute switch off the machine, turning in “OFF” (Ref. 3 Fig. 25).
PROCEED AS DESCRIBED AT CHAPTER 15.3

FIG. 25

DO NOT EXCEED THE

MAXIMUM LEVEL.

THE OLD OIL MUST BE DISPOSED OF IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE REGULATIONS IN FORCE.

NOTE ON LUBRICANTS
When delivered the machine is filled with oil.
In normal conditions of use, these lubricants have proved to be able to withstand use for as many as 4.000 hours.
However, due to the external polluting agents that get into the compressor with the air that it takes in, it is advisable to
change the oil at more frequent intervals, as indicated on the routine maintenance chart.
If the compressor is being used at high temperatures (continuous operation above 90 °C - 194 °F) or in particularly
severe conditions, we advise changing the oil at shorter intervals than those recommended in the maintenance chart.

OIL SPECIFICATIONS:
Mineral oil
Although Rotair is strongly recommended, mineral oil can be used after taking following precautions:
- The previously used oil should first be drained and the system flushed
- The oil filter and oil separator should be replaced
- The oil must meet the requirements as specified below
Properties: high-quality, mineral oil with oxidation inhibitors and anti-foam and anti-wear properties. The viscosity grade
must correspond to the ambient temperature and ISO 3448, as follows:

Ambient temperature Viscosity grade Viscosity index

Consistently above 25 degrees Celsius ISO VG 68 Minimum 95
Between 25 and 0 degrees Celsius ISO VG 46 Minimum 95

We recommend GAOK cleaner when switching to a mineral oil. (5-gal pail part #1310250946)
