AIR CARE SEMINAR TRAINING
Sullair Air Care Seminars are courses that provide hands-on instruction for the proper operation, maintenance,
and servicing of Sullair products. Individual seminars on portable compressors and compressor electrical
systems are offered at regular intervals throughout the year at Sullair’s corporate headquarters training facility
located at Michigan City, Indiana.

Instruction includes training on the function and installation of Sullair service parts, troubleshooting common
faults and malfunctions, and actual equipment operation. These seminars are recommended for maintenance,
contractor maintenance, and service personnel.

While Sullair has built into this compressor a section thoroughly and familiarize yourself with the
comprehensive array of controls and indicators to controls and indicators—their purpose, location and
assure you that it is operating properly, you will want use.
to recognize and interpret the readings which will call

4.2 PURPOSE OF CONTROLS


CONTROL OR INDICATOR PURPOSE
Power ON Switch (Start Up) * The engine switch is used to both energize the compressor’s electrical
system and engage the engine/starter. It also has a built-in anti-restart
device that protects the starter from engaging while the engine is
running. The switch must be turned back to the “off” position before the
engine can be re-started.

NOTE
When restarting the compressor, the controller will
not allow restart until system pressure falls below
10 psig (0.7 bar) or less. More than 10 psig (0.7
bar) can put extra load on the starter.

Voltmeter * Monitors the condition of the batteries and the charging circuit. The
normal reading is 24 to 48 volts.
Service Air Pressure Gauge * Continually monitors the pressure inside the receiver tank at various
load and unload conditions.
Engine Temperature Gauge * Monitors the temperature of the engine water. The normal operating
temperature should read approximately 160ºF to 210ºF (71ºC to 99ºC).
Controller * Depicts system related diagnostics. Can be used for system
performance monitoring.
Compressor Temperature Gauge * Monitors the temperature of the air/fluid mixture leaving the compressor
unit. The normal reading should be approximately 210ºF to 250ºF
(99ºC to 121ºC).
System Pressure Sensor Prevents starter engagement when the air system is pressurized.
Fluid Level Sight Glass Monitors the fluid level in the receiver tank. Proper level is always
visible in the sight glass. Check the level when the compressor is
shutdown.
Receiver Tank Temperature Switch Opens the electrical circuit to shut down the compressor when then
receiver tank temperature reaches 250ºF (121ºC).

CONTROL OR INDICATOR PURPOSE


Reducing Regulator Valve Provides regulated air pressure to the inlet valve.
Control Regulating Valve Provides an air signal to the inlet valve and engine to close the inlet
valve and reduce engine speed to control air delivery according to
demand.
Minimum Pressure/Check Valve Maintains a minimum of 65 psig (4.5 bar) in the compressor receiver
tank. This valve restricts receiver air discharge from receiver/receiver
tank when pressure falls to 65 psig (4.5 bar). Also prevents back flow
into the receiver tank during upload conditions and after shutdown.
High/Low Pressure Selector Switch Select high pressure 150 psig (10.3 bar) or low pressure100 psig (6.9
(only on dual pressure models) * bar) at instrument panel to correspond to operator’s needs.
Pressure Relief Valve Opens receiver tank pressure to atmosphere should pressure inside
the receiver tank exceed the pressure relief valve setting.
Air Inlet Valve Regulates the amount of air allowed to enter the compressor. This
regulation is determined by the amount of air being used at the service
line.
Thermal Valve Regulates flow of fluid to and around the fluid cooler. Designed to
maintain a minimum operating temperature; used for fast warm-up at
start-up and to eliminate condensation during operation.
Blowdown Valve * Vents surplus receiver tank pressure to the atmosphere during
operation and shutdown.
Coolant Level Switch Shuts the compressor down and/or prevents it from being started if the
engine coolant level drops too low.
Hydraulic Fluid Sight Glass Monitors fluid level of hydraulic fan drive system. Proper level is filled to
top of sight glass. Should be checked before every startup.
Hydraulic Fluid Level Switch Triggers a warning message when hydraulic system fluid level is low.
Hydraulic Fluid Temperature Sensor Triggers a warning message when the maximum hydraulic fluid
temperature, 225°F (107°C) is exceeded. Normal temperature will
depend on ambient temperature and system loading.
Regeneration Switch * To manually control the exhaust aftertreatment is in soot indicator
levels of 15 - 105%
DPF Lamp * Indicates DPF is above 80% soot loading. Warns operator that
regeneration is required.
Regeneration Inhibited Lamp * Indicates regeneration is inhibited by operator, application, or Cat ET.
High Exhaust System Temperature (HEST) Indicates that the exhaust aftertreatment is in active regeneration.

Cabin Light Switch * Manually turns interior compressor lighting on.

BRAKE CLEANING AND INSPECTION
Your trailer brakes must be inspected and serviced
immediately if a loss of performance is indicated.
With normal use, servicing at one year intervals is
usually adequate. With increased usage, theis work
should be done more frequently as required.
Magnets and shoes must be changed when they
become excessively worn or scored, a condition
which can reduce vehicle braking.
Clean the backing plate, magnet arm, magnet, and
brake shoes. Make certain that all the parts removed
are replaced in the same brake and drum assembly.
Inspect for any loose or worn parts, stretched or
deformed springs and replace as necessary.
