Lubrication: Lubrication of the air-end gives duel advantage. It removes heat of

compression & lubricates screw, bearings & gears. ISO VG68 grade oil is used for
this purpose. Pressurized, cool & filtered oil is injected in the air-end and comes
out of the compressor from discharge of the air end along with compressed air.
Positive oil pressure is ensured in air/oil separator tank. Hence we do not require
any separate oil pump.
Lube oil Filtration: Spin-on type oil filter is used to filter Lube oil before injecting to
the airend. This enhances long life of the compressor and reliable operation.
Air/Oil Separation: Compressed air and lube oil is separated in a multistage air/oil
separator tank. The separator also acts as an oil reservoir. High efficient air/oil
separator element, limits oil carryover to desired level in the delivered air from
compressor package.
Lube oil Cooling: Temperature of the compressor system is maintained within

limits by cooling oil in radiator type air-cooled oil cooler. Temperature of the oil is
monitored through the temperature switch fitted in the oil line to make the fan
motor ON/OFF through the microcontroller so as to ensure uniform oil temperature
irrespective of the ambient temperature.
After Cooling: High-pressure discharge air is cooled in radiator type air-cooled

after-cooler. The condensation happens due to cooling of air & separates out in
the Moisture separator. We provide Auto drain trap to remove water form the
system.
Canopy & Base Frame: All components of the compressor package are mounted
on a single base frame. It does not require any foundation. The complete
package can be shifted with forklift or hydraulic lift trolleys by using the provision
given in the base frame.
Powder Coated Metallic Canopy of the compressor is of modular design. It is
acoustically designed to limit sound pressure level of the package to 75 dB (A) at a
distance of one meter. The noise measurement is as per Pneurop / Cagi
PN8NTC2 standard. Easily removable doors with locks are provided for easy
26
accessibility to internal components. Air outlet line is terminated outside of the

canopy for easy connection to the air network. Opening in the base frame is given
for inserting electrical power supply line from Main supply panel without making
any cutouts in the canopy or base frame.
Capacity Control: Load/Unload capacity control is provided which functions as

per demand conditions. Power saving and optimum utilization of compressor
package is achieved due to this type of capacity control.
Safety Devices: Following mechanical safety devices are provided to ensure safe
operation of the compressor
Minimum Pressure Valve - Maintains minimum air pressure in air-oil separator tank
so that positive oil flow is ensured.
Safety Relief Valve - De-pressurize compressor system if pressure exceeds

beyond limits of the system
Blow Down Valve - Ensures proper pressure relief arrangement during the
unload condition of the compressor
Oil Level indicator - This is mounted on air/oil separator tank. It gives visual
indication of minimum & maximum level of oil present
in compressor system
Control Panel: This is auto star-delta starter cum microprocessor based control
panel packaged on the same base frame within canopy of the compressor. Panel
is wired and hooked up with main motor and all instruments with in the package.
The display of various operating parameters and setting is done on a man machine
interface (MMI) - microcontroller installed on easily accessible height on canopy
front part.

P&I DIAGRAM OF THE AIR COMPRESSOR

6.0 SYSTEM OPERATION
The Air Intake Valve provided is normally open type. As the supply to the motor is
on due to the vacuum created in the compressor, air enters in the bare compressor
from suction filter. The compressed air is delivered to Air/oil separator. The
pressure in Air/Oil separator starts rising. This air pressure signal passes through
the open type solenoid Valve & is given to the inside piston of Air Intake Valve.
This closes the air intake valve & supply of air to the compressor is cut off. Thus
compressor is immediately unloaded. This ensures that the starting torque required
is less thereby limiting the starting current of the motor. Also the motor is started in
star connection. After a set time the starter connects the motor in delta connection
& compressor runs smoothly in unloaded condition. After a set delay time, the
Solenoid Valve is energized & the signal line to air intake valve is cut off &
connected to exhaust. With this the Air Intake Valve is immediately open &
compressor comes on load. It takes few seconds for the compressor to come on
load depending on the motor rating. The moment the pressure rises in the Air Oil
Separator tank, the oil flow to compressor is started, irrespective of whether the
compressor is in loaded or unloaded condition.
Air / oil separator separates the oil from air/oil mixture down to 1 to 3 PPM by
mechanical as well as with the help of air-oil separator element as described
earlier. The minimum pressure valve starts opening at a pressure of 3.5 kg/cm²
(full open at 4.0 kg/cm2). The compressed air from receiver then passes through
the after-cooler part of the combi-cooler where it is cooled with air of fan driven by
motor. An efficient moisture separator then separates the condensed moisture in
the compressed & cooled air. The separated moisture is drained by mechanical
auto-drain valve of the Moisture Separator. Pressurized air is now available at the
air delivery valve for user’s network.
When the demand for air decreased or when there is no demand, pressure builds
up in the system. The pressure transmitter connected after the Moisture Separator
senses this pressure. When the system pressure in the system increases beyond a
set value, an electric signal is given to the Solenoid Valve & it is de-energized. &
the pressure signal line from receiver is connected to the Air Intake Valve & the
compressor is immediately unloaded.. At the same the pressure signal from
receiver through the Solenoid Valve is also given on the top of Blow Down Valve.
The BDV is normally closed type. The pressure signal at top opens it & receiver is
connected to the suction side of the compressor. BDV has in-built spring
resistance which helps to maintain a minimum pressure of 2.0 kg/cm^2g during
unloading. This not only ensures that the power consumption during unloading is
minimum & but also sufficient oil flow is maintained during unloading.
30
Whenever the compressor is stops, the Solenoid Valve de-energizes. Air Intake
Valve closes, which ensures that there is no oil back flow from compressor to air
filter. BDV gets opened due to pressure signal at its top from Solenoid Valve. The
air receiver gets connected to the atmospheric pressure through BDV to just after
the Air suction filter & pressure in the receiver is relived totally. This ensures that
when the compressor is started again, there is no pressure in the receiver. The
small NRV connected in the signal line after BDV & just before Air Intake Valve
ensures that there is no oil back flow from compressor towards the air suction filter.
The heat of compression is absorbed by oil besides sealing the rotor gaps and
lubricating the moving parts including bearings. The oil that is separated in Air/Oil
separator is collected in oil tank portion in Air/Oil separator. Due to the pressure
differential the oil starts flowing from AOS tank and is passed through oil cooler
part of the compact combi-cooler, where it is cooled by air of Fan & Motor. Further
it is filtered in oil filter and supplied to compressor.
After Oil filter small qty oil is also sprayed in gearbox for the gear & pinion
lubrication. The oil is drained from the gearbox to the suction of compressor.
If the oil is overcooled the moisture in the air get condensed & mixes in the oil in
the form of water. This badly affects the performance & life of oil. Compressor
performance & life also gets affected. To avoid this overcooling a thermal switch is
provided in the oil line after the oil cooler. This switch switches off the cooling fan if
the oil temperature falls below a set value.

The Compressor oil Servo System HLP68 is not given in the consumable list
since it can be procured directly from the oil manufacturer by the
customer/user.
The rubber & non-metallic parts like O-rings, gaskets, hoses are not considered in
the list of consumables since the life depends on the operating temperature which
in-turn depends on the operating environment, operation & maintenance
conditions. Apart from this, the gaskets and O-rings are to be replaced when the
part is damaged during the maintenance/repair of compressor parts during
operation. Hence KPCL recommends user to maintain one set of gaskets and O-
rings as stand-by stock
