Start-up Procedures
Unit Controls
Initial Start-up
1) Remove the RH Side Access Panel, and
ensure that there is sufficient Oil in the Air
End. Refer to the ‘Lubrication’ section (page
8) in this manual for proper type and level of
Oil.
2) Do a visual inspection of the Unit, and ensure
that no internal damage was caused during
transit.
3) Place the Fused Disconnect or Breaker in the
‘On’ Position. Check that there is power to
the Controller, the green Power light will be
on.
4) During normal operation of the Unit, keep the
Access Panels closed at all times. As well,
do not place any obstructions against or on
top of the Unit, thereby limiting the flow of
cooling air.
5) Ensure the Ball Valve on the Unit is closed,
turn the Selector Switch to the ‘On’ position,
and run the Unit up to maximum pressure.
The Unit will run up to 145 psi (10bar), at
which point the Motor will continue to run but
not compress air.
6) Once the Unit reaches 145 psi (10bar), it will idle for 1
minute and shut off.
Default Offload Time of this unit is 1 minute. It would
switch from 1 minute to 3 minutes if rate of pressure
decay is high.
7) Open the Ball Valve slightly and allow the air to bleed
from the Tank. Once the pressure reaches approx.
110 psi (7.6bar), the Unit will start and begin to
compress air after a short delay.
8) Measure the amp draw when the Unit reaches the
maximum pressure of 145 psi (10bar).
9) Close the Ball Valve, allow the Unit to reach
maximum pressure, idle, and shut off.
10) The Unit is ready for normal use.
11) To validate Warranty, complete the warranty
registration and attach to the on-line startup claim
within Thirty (30) days of initial operation, or
email to:
‘
’
Shut off all power to the Air
Compressor Unit before attempting any
repair or maintenance.
Adjusting the settings of the Controller
could adversely affect the performance
of the Unit. Only those individuals with
knowledge of the Unit should make any
adjustments.
Start/Stop Switch
Start position:
allows the Unit to
start.
Stop position:
unit will shutdown
after 10 secs.
Do not place any materials in close
proximity to the Compressor. Placing
materials against or close to the Unit
will limit the cooling required, and
could lead to premature failure.
