Bild 24 motor lubrication points
Attention
The operational safety of the electric motor and
the entire compressor system depends to a great
extent on the lubrication intervals. Poor of no lubri-
cation of electric motors can Iead to considerable
machine damage and, if the non-compliance with
the maintenance instructions can be proved, war-
ranty and liability claims will be rejected.
Note
If the bearins temperature or running noise increases
during operation, shut the compressor unit down imme-
diately and inform the responsible service departmen.
Faults on electric machines may only be rectified by
skilled personnel.

Lubricant recommendation
Please note that proper lubrication significantly ex-
tends the service life of your compressor system.
According to the regulations for the prevention of acci-
dents in connection with compressors (issed by the
German social insurance against occupational acci-
dents VBG 16) lubricants must be used, whose proper-
ties comply with the operating conditions provided.
Do not mix different lubricants. This means also that in
the case of an oil change, the old oil type should be
completely drained from the circuit.
In the case of final compressing temperatures perma-
nently above 90 °C, the oil change intervals given in
paragraph 8.3 (maintenance schedule)
shorten
by 50 %.
The oil change intervals should be determined ac-
cording to actual operating conditions and with the help
of oil analyses.
You should use the following oil types:
a) CompAir "4000“
b) CompAir "Blue Energy“
