NOTICE!
Risk of material damage from
condensation!
Cooling air with moisture content
can cause condensation.
- Make sure that the cooling air is
cool, dry and free of dust.
1.
Provide the required rate of cooling air as per
the technical data sheet for the screw
compressor.
2.
Extract the exhaust air as per the technical
data sheet for the screw compressor.
This prevents the installation room and the
screw compressor from heating up.
3.3.3
Connection to the
compressed air network
WARNING!
Danger of injury due to
unpredictable movement of the
compressed air hose!
Load switches in the compressed
air network causes jerky
movements of the compressed air
hose with high force.
- Anchor and fasten the
compressed air hose sufficiently.
The prerequisite for the correct
installation is the presence of a
professionally-planned, installed
and maintained compressed air
network and an additional shut-off
valve installed at the entrance to the
compressed air network.Relief
valves are to be placed ahead of
any potential blockage point,
including but not limited to shut-off
valves, heat exchangers and
discharge silencers.Always direct
discharge from relief valves away
from areas where personnel may
be.
FSC base mounted compressor packages come
with a mounted starter. Ensuring that the starter
is mounted per national and local NEL
requirements, it’s responsibility of the owner.
1.
Connect the compressed air.
2.
Ensure that the compressed air connection
does not represent a stumbling hazard.
3.
Anchor and fasten the compressed air
connection sufficiently.
Air piping requirements:
1. Install required accessories.
2. Main piping should have 1˚- 2˚ slant away
from the compressor to drain the condensate.
3. Pressure drop of piping must not exceed 5%
of discharge pressure. Select larger piping than
required for better efficiency.
4. Branch line must be located at the topside of
main piping to avoid condensate from flowing
into the facilities.
5. To prolong service life of pneumatic tools,
install an air filter regulator unit on the outlet.
6. Do not randomly reduce the size of the main
piping. If necessary, use the proper
reducer or a large pressure loss may incur .
7. The common installation arrangement is; air
comp air tank + dryer. An air tank is
capable of draining some of the condensate and
cooling down the temperature of compressed
air. This will lead to more efficient dryer opera-
tion.
8. If the air requirement is large for a short peri-
od, install a higher volume air tank to reduce the
frequency of full/off load control.
9. The ideal piping main would be constructed
around the factory as a loop for delivering com-
pressed air from both sides at any point.
