SAFETY AND OPERATION PRECAUTIONS

Because an air compressor is a piece of machinery with moving and rotating parts, the same precautions should be
observed as with any piece of machinery of this type where carelessness in operation or maintenance is hazardous
to personnel.
Before you install the air compressor you should take the time to carefully read all the instructions contained in this
manual. Electricity and compressed air have the potential to cause severe personal injury or property damage. Before
installing, wiring, starting, operating or making any adjustments, identify the components of the air compressor using
this manual as a guide.
The operator should use common sense and good working practices while operating and maintaining this unit.
Maintenance should be done by qualified personnel, accurately and with proper tools. Follow the maintenance
schedule as outlined in the manual to ensure problem free operation after start up.
In addition to the many obvious safety rules that should be followed with this type of machinery, the safety precautions
listed below must be observed:

1. Read all instructions completely before operating air compressor or unit.

2. For installation, follow all local electrical and safety codes, as well as the Occupational Safety and Health Act
OSHA) and EN Standards EN 1012-1-2010 and EN60204-1 and the requirements of the Machinery Directive.
2A) An electrical disconnect is not supplied with this unit. It is the customer’s responsibility to provide an electrical
disconnect in accordance with 5.3 of EN 60204-1:2006. See nameplate for applicable electrical information.
2B) Over-current protections of the unit shall be supplied by customer in accordance with 7.2 of EN60204-1:2006.
See nameplate for applicable electrical information.
3. Electric motors must be securely and adequately grounded. This can be accomplished by wiring with a grounded,
metal-clad raceway system to the starter; by using a separate ground wire connected to the bare metal of the
motor frame; or other suitable means.
4. Protect the power cable from coming into contact with sharp objects. Do not kink power cable and never allow
the cable to come in contact with oil, grease, hot surfaces, or chemicals.
5. Make certain that the power source conforms to the requirements of your equipment.
6. Pull main electrical disconnect switch and disconnect any separate control lines, if used, before attempting to
work or perform maintenance on the air compressor or unit. "Tag Out" or "Lock Out" all power sources.
7. Do not attempt to remove any compressor parts without first relieving the entire system of pressure.
8. Do not attempt to service any part while machine is in an operational mode.
9. Do not operate the compressor at pressures in excess of its rating.
10. Do not operate the compressor at speeds in excess of its rating.
11. Periodically check all safety devices for proper operation. Do not change pressure setting or restrict operation in
any way.
12. Be sure no tools, rags, or loose parts are left on the compressor or drive parts.
13. Exercise cleanliness during maintenance and when making repairs. Keep dirt away from parts by covering parts
and exposed openings with clean cloth or Kraft paper.
14. Do not install a shut-off valve in the discharge line unless a pressure relief valve of proper design and size is
installed in the line between the compressor unit and shut-off valve.
15. Do not operate compressor in areas where there is a possibility of ingesting flammable or toxic fumes.
16. Be careful when touching the exterior of a recently run motor - it may be hot enough to be painful or cause injury.
With modern motors this condition is normal if operated at rated load as modern motors are built to operate at
higher temperatures.
17. Inspect unit daily to observe and correct any unsafe operating condition.
18. Do not "play around" with compressed air, nor direct air stream at body, because this can cause injuries.
19. Personal injury could result if there is direct contact of compressed air.
20. Never direct compressed air onto your own skin or at other people. Never use compressed air to clean loose dirt
from clothing.
21. Compressed air from this machine must not, under any circumstances, be used for food processing or breathing
air without adequate downstream filters, purifiers, and controls.
22. Always use an air pressure regulating device at the point of use. Do not use air pressure greater than marked
maximum pressure of attachment.
23. Check hoses for weak or worn condition before each use, and make certain that all connections are secure.
24. Always wear safety glasses when using a compressed air tool.

THEORY OF OPERATION

A scroll compressor uses two interwoven scrolls. One of the scrolls is fixed, while the other orbits
eccentrically without rotating, thereby compressing pockets of air between the scrolls. The diagram
below illustrates the normal operation of the scroll compressor.

As the orbiting scroll moves, several gas pockets are formed simultaneously between the two scrolls.
Pockets at the outer part of the scrolls (inlet 1 & 2) intake gas and move it towards the center of the
scroll. As the gas moves through continuously smaller internal pockets, both its temperature and
pressure are increased until a desirable discharge pressure is achieved and the compressed gas is
discharged thought the exhaust port located in the center.

mists and/or bromine.

NOTICE
The discharge nipple is hand tightened only. Make sure to tighten the discharge nipple when
installing the airend.

1. Install a properly sized inlet filter to prevent debris entering the scroll compressor. A 5 micron
filter is recommended.

2. Install a check valve directly after the outlet side of the compressor to prevent air flowing back
into the compressor.

3. Install a pressure relief valve in the discharge air piping to protect the system from abnormal
pressure rise.

4. Make sure that the airend is securely bolted down and all piping and fittings are securely
fastened before starting the scroll compressor.

5. Compressors should never be located so close to a wall or other obstruction that flow of air
through the cooling fan, which cools the compressor, is impeded. Permanently mounted
units should have cooling fan at least 24” from wall for proper air circulation and ease of
maintenance.

6. Before placing airend in service, check rotation.

10
Correct rotation is counter-clockwise, when viewed from the compressor pulley on the airend (A), and
clockwise rotation when viewed from the discharge outlet (B).
