Compressed air connection
The compressor units are fitted as standard with control gear, consisting of a Main
power / pressure switch, pressure gauge, safety valve, check valve and condensate
drain.
The compressed air connection (D units) or outlet of the air water separator (A units).
takes place at the Main power / pressure switch via a ¼ inch (0.635 cm) tapered
thread. A quick coupling with hose nozzle is included in the scope of delivery. Fasten the
pressure hose at the hose nozzle with the help of a hose clamp.
Approximately 70% of the products induced electrical energy is converted into heat and is
given off to the surrounding area.
To prevent vibration transference, it is advisable to install a flexible pressure hose between
the outlet connection and user’s line. As a further accessory, a pressure reducer unit (see
figure 4) can be connected.
Attention!
The connection to the mains voltage supply must only be carried out by a quali-
fied electrician.
2.3.3
Electrical installation
Observe closely the local regulations for power undertakings. The connection must only be
carried out on a power supply with correctly installed protective conductor.
The equipment is hard wired to the power supply, a switch arrangement must be arranged
with at least a 0.1 inch (3 mm) wide contact opening (e.g. heavy duty switch).
Prior to making the electrical connection, check the mains voltage and frequency. They
should correspond with the specifications on the model label.
Please observe that the relevant circuit is protected by the correct breaker. The following
lists the current, breaker rating, line cord size and length required for each model.
Important:
Due to harmonics and flicker data requirements, the product should be installed
in a location with a maximum permissible system impedance, Zsys, of:
Z = 0.109 Ohm + j 0.068 Ohm (0.109 Ohm + 216 µH)
