APP4V1043T-EC10T
In order to receive maximum performance and long life from your compressor, the following instructions
should be carefully read and all points regarding installation and operation of the unit should be noted and
observed. A careful reading of this manual, prior to connecting anything to the motor of the compressor, will
pay dividends in terms of trouble-free operation.
Select a clean, dry, and well-lit location. In cold climates, the compressor should be installed in a heated
building. Insulate cold water or other low temperature pipes that pass overhead to avoid the possible collection
and dripping of condensate onto the compressor and motor that could cause rusting or the motor shorting
out.
DO NOT
install the compressor in a boiler room, paint spray room, or area where sandblasting is carried
on. If air in the area where the compressor is to be installed is acid or dust laden, the compressor intake
should be piped to the outside. This intake pipe should increase in size for every twenty (20) feet of run and
the intake filters should be installed at the end of the pipes with a hood to protect them from the elements.
Special size
filters are required for that pipe.
If the compressor has to be located where the motor will be exposed to appreciable quantities of water, dirt,
oil, acid, or alkaline fumes, the motor must be of special construction to avoid rapid deterioration; i.e. TEFC
Unless the base is exactly level, shims will be required. Any space between the base and foot of the tank
should be shimmed rather than drawing the foot down, thus placing strain on the unit. When is properly
shimmed, vibration will be at a minimum. Also use a ¼’’ or less rubber pad under each foot to help with
vibration.
Allow sufficient space around the compressor so that it is accessible from all sides for maintenance. Mount
the unit with the pulley side toward the wall, but at least 18 inches from it.
.
Check for possible damage in transit and see that the pulley turns freely by hand.
Report any damage to
the delivery carrier at once.
Introduction
Hooking up the pump
Inspection
Location
•
Mount pump to the deck of the tank. We recommend using angle iron to raise the pump above the
deck, to allow for better crankcase cooling.
•
Hook up main feed tube from the 3/4” flare fitting to the check valve in the tank.
•
Run ¼’’ copper tubing from 90
degree elbow (coming out of the
front crankcase) to the side of
your check valve.
