Splash Lubricated, Air Compressor Pumps
8. Install appropriate ASME code safety valves and make sure piping system is equipped with adequate
condensate drains. See figure 4.
9. Make sure any tube, pipe or hose connected to the unit can withstand operating temperatures and retain
pressure.
10. Never use reducers in discharge piping. Keep
all piping and fittings the same size in the
piping system.
11. For permanent installations of compressed
air systems, determine total length of system
and select correct pipe size. Make sure
underground lines are buried below frost line
and avoid areas where condensation could
build up and freeze.
12. Test entire piping system before underground
lines are buried. Be sure to find and repair all
leaks before using compressor.
Never install a shut-off valve such as a glove or gate valve, between the
pump discharge and the air tank unless a safety valve is installed in
the line between valve and pump.
WARNING
Never use plastic (PVC) pipe for compressed air. Serious injury or
death could result.
Never exceed recommended pressure or
speed while operating compressor.
