•
•
1.1 LOCATION
•
The suction inlet should be installed in a well ventilated position so that air drawn into the compressor is as
cool and dry as possible and there is good circulation to the compressor cooling fan and drive motor integral
cooling fans and all the compressor external surfaces.
• The compressor must be positioned with the axis of the crankshaft and motor fore and aft in the vessel to
• ensure adequate lubrication during the vessels normal roll, pitch, list and trim modes.
• 1.2 MOUNTING
• The compressor should be mounted on support plates or pads and supported by a ribbed structure suitable
for the type and weight of the compressor. The pads/plates must be clean and flat to within 1 mm. Shims
• should be used if necessary. Refer to general arrangement drawing supplied with the compressor
documentation package for mounting feet or anti-vibration mounts dimensions and positions and weight of
• the compressor.
• 1.3 COMMISSIONING
• WARNING
• 2. DO NOT RUN THE COMPRESSOR UNLESS ALL PROTECTIVE GUARDS FITTED TO IT AND
•
3. Before initial start up or when the compressor has not been run for 5 weeks or more carry out the
following procedures.
• Remove the plugs from the side wall of the first stage cylinder and final stage cylinder head.
• Replace plugs.
• NOTE: After adding oil, the compressor must be barred over at least 3 complete revolutions to ensure
lubrication of the cylinder bores during initial start up and minimise the risk of the piston causing a
• 4. Remove upper guard section (167) from fan housing adaptor (170).
• 5. Using a bar (not supplied) through the air intake, in one of the holes in the flywheel turn over the
compressor through at least three complete revolutions.
• 6. Connect the electrical supply and carry out a momentary start and stop.

• SECTION 2 - OPERATING PROCEDURE
•
•
The standard V-Line compressor is supplied with an air delivery gauge, fusible plug, low lubricating oil switch
and two manual drain valves.
• The fusible plug is fitted to protect the compressor by shutting it down if the temperature rises above the normal
maximum operating temperature. As an option, a high air temperature switch can be fitted in place of the fusible plug.
• The second pole of the switch may be connected to give a panel indicated waming of approaching shutdown
temperature.
• The low lubricating oil switch (double pole) will also shut down the compressor if it detects the oil level is
• below the minimum requirement. An adjustable time delay is included to overcome false tripping due to the
roll and pitch of the vessel. A second pole may be connected to give a panel warning of approaching
• The compressor is fitted with protection devices which immediately stop and unload the compressor, when it
is connected to a suitable starter, (supplied by Hamworthy or the customer) if any of the follOWing events
• occur:
•
As an option, a high final air delivery temperature switch can also be filted, with shutdown and optional pre-
alarm settings.
•
• selection of manual mode - local start/stop only
If more than one compressor is charging the system a selector switch should be filted enabling the sequence
• The compressor will start and run in this mode overriding the low oil level shutdown device and high air
temperature shutdown device when filted. When manual drain valves are filted, they must be closed before
• the compressor will come "on load". The emergency stop bulton and motor thermal overloads will still stop
the machine. Note: the manual drain valves must be opened to unload the machine before the compressor is
• re-started. If the machine is filted with solenoid drain valves it will automatically unload.
• Compressor and air system protection during manual mode running are given by first and final stage air
safety valves and any other safety device filted to the installed system.
•
•
• Page 2-1
•
•
SECTION 2 • OPERATING PROCEDURE
•
Starting, running and run down cycles when solenoid valves are fitted are as for normal (automatic) running •
as described with the exception of the following:
•
- oil level switch overridden
- high air temperature switch overridden (when fitted) •
- Remote start/stop function disabled.
•
2.4 AUTOMATIC RUNNING (ONLY POSSIBLE WITH SOLENOID DRAIN VALVES FITTED)
•
1. Energise the starter panel by operating the main isolator.
Set mode switch Sl to AUTO. •
Set lccal/remote switch S2 as required.
Set drain switch S3 to AUTO •
Press RESET push button.
•
2. On pressing the START button, the compressor runs off-load for a short time (approximately 15 - 20
seconds) after which the drain/unloading solenoid valves are energised to close to charge the system. •
(Note that the compressor will only go on load if the system is not fully charged.)
•
3. The compressor is now controlled by the air system pressure switch. At 5 minute intervals (adjustable)
the drain solenoid valves are de-energised for 2 seconds (adjustable) to drain the separator bowls.
•
4. On air system charged signal, the solenoid valves are de-energised to open to drain and unload the
•
compressor until a signal is received:-
•
on recharge signal the solenoid valves are energised to close causing the compressor to charge the
system
•
if the recharge signal is not received within 5 minutes (adjustable) of the charged signal, the
•
•
compressor stops leaving the solenoid valves open. On recharge signal the compressor starts as for
pressing the START button (and lamp goes out).
5. On pressing the STOP button (or switching Sl to OFF or MAN) the solenoid valves are de-energised
to open to drain the separator bowls, the compressor continues to run-on unloaded for 5 minutes •
(adjustable) before stopping. Pressing the START button during this cycle brings the compressor back
on line to recharge the system. •
6. If the START button is pressed while the air system is fully charged, the compressor starts as •
described in 2. The compressor is then controlled by the air system pressure switch as in 3 and 4
above. •
2.5 GENERAL •
Individual volt-free change-over contacts and control panel mounted .indicator lamps are provided as listed •
below: .
•
- compressor running
- low oil level shutdown
•
• Iow oil level warning (if fitted)

• Routine maintenance of the compressor should be carried out at the intervals listed in the Maintenance
• Schedule under normal conditions. However, the optimum period between servicing will depend upon the
operating conditions.
• Before re-assembly, clean all parts with a suitable cleaning fluid and examine for wear, corrosion, cracks,
• distortion, or any other damage. Renew as necessary. Refer to the wear tolerances given in Section 4 -
Technical Data.
• When re-assembling compressor components ensure that all flat faced joints and O-rings are refitted. Great
• care must be taken to ensure that they are not damaged. If they are damaged in any way during assembly
they must be renewed.
• Item numbers in the text refer to items on the sectional Arrangement Drawings which are at the end of this

1. Check oil level on dipstick. v' v'
A complete overhaul is recommended every 5 years or 5,000 running hours. After a major service, follow the
•
•
commissioning procedure detailed in section 1.
•
3.2 MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
Refer to Technical Data section for oil capacities and recommended lubricants. •
1. Remove filler/dipstick and check oil level. •
2. Fill/top up crankcase oil level if necessary with lubricating oil to full level on dipstick. •
Periodically examine oil in crankcase and ensure that it is not contaminated with condensate. If the oil is •
emulsified (creamy in colour) it must be changed and the crankcase cleaned.
•
If moisture forms without emulsification, as two separate liquids, condensate may be drained from below the
oil. The oil level should then be restored with fresh oil. •

3. Remove the bolts (191) and spring washers (192) securing the drive motor to the crankcase/fan
housing adaptor.
• 4. Using suitable lifting tackle, lift and slide the drive motor complete with drive coupling element (190),
coupling hub, and hexagon socket head cap screws, out of the crankcase.
• 5. If required, remove drive coupling element (190) from its coupling hub by removing the four radial
• 6. If required, remove the four coupling element drive pins from the flywheel fan drive clamp.
• In addition to the operational sequence 1 to 9 listed below the coupling must be assembled in accordance
with the following notes:
• a. The radial and axial screws connecting the rubber element to the hubs must all be tightened to
• the torque given in the operational sequence. Tightening torques which are too low will
inevitably lead to slackening of the screws in service and consequently to the destruction of the
• coupling.
•
Ensure that on tightening the screws the aluminium bushes in the rubber part are not twisted at
the same time, but sit straight. In order to reduce friction between the screw head and the
•
aluminium part, a small amount of grease should be applied under the head of the screw before
fitting. If necessary use a suitable tool for applying counter pressure on the element to prevent
twisting of the rubber part during tightening of the screws. This is particularly important with the
• radial screws, otherwise the cylindrical faces between the aluminium insert and the hub will not
engage on the full area, but only on two corners. If the coupling is supplied in a pre-assembled
• b. Fit the hubs onto the shafts or the adaptor plate onto the flywheel. Position the element with the
side having the rubber face free of the axial aluminium inserts towards the flange hub and,
• using the radial screws, mount it on the cylindrical hub. During this process, the rubber element
is pulled together radially and receives its pre-Ioad. Then push the coupled elements together
• and in so doing, carefully slide the coupling with light axial pressure onto the socket bolts. The
rubber element is subjected to a little more radial compression by the socket bolts, and the pre-
• load is thus increased. The axial bores in the rubber element should be smeared lightly with
grease beforehand to allow the socket bolts to slide easily in the inserts.

• SECTION 4 - TECHNICAL DATA
• Extensive tests have been carried out on the V-Line compressor using Shell Corena P100 (mineral)
• and Castrol Aircol SN100 (synthetic) lubricants. These oils have been found to give good results over
extended service and Hamworthy recommend their use to ensure satisfactory operation of the compressor.
• The following lubricants have not been tested by Hamworthy with the V-Line compressor, but are offered as
• Mineral Oils
,
•
Supplier Oil Type
BP Energol RC 100
•
Esso Zerice S100
Mobil Rarus 427
•
Synthetic Oils
Esso Synesstic 100 (Synthetic Oil)
•
Texaco Synstar, DE100 (Synthetic Oil)
• The V-Line compressor is designed to achieve the best possible results using mineral oils. A recommended
lubricating oil should be used at all times to ensure safe and efficient operation with minimum wear. The
•
suggested maintenance intervals are based on the results of extensive tests using Shell P100 mineral oil.
Specific measures have been taken to ensure extended service before components need cleaning to remove
carbon.
• Hamworthy recommend the use of mineral oil as the most economic lubricant. If synthetic oils are to be used
• 1. Drain the old mineral lubricant completely whilst the oil is warm.
• 3. Inspect and thoroughly clean compressor valves (as detailed in Maintenance section).
