OPERATION

START-UP

OPERATING CYCLE

•

At  first  start-up,  the  motor  starts  in  the

“star” configuration. In this phase the compressor

starts slowly, the solenoid valve (1) is open and

the suction regulator (2) is closed.

•

The compressor remains in this condition

for about 5÷7 seconds

•

After this time, the motor is powered by

the “delta” configured circuit. The solenoid val-

ve (1) receives current and closes allowing the

opening  of  the  suction  regulator  (2),  which

intakes atmospheric air through the filter (3).

•

At this stage, the compressor runs at full

speed and begins to compress the air in the tank

(6).

•

The  compressed  air  cannot  come  out

from the minimum pressure valve set at 3÷4 bar.

•

The compressed air compresses the oil

in the tank (6) and forces it to flow towards the

tube (7).

•

If the oil temperature is below 71°C the

oil  from  the  tube  (7)  flows  directly  to  the

compressor (4) through the tube (8) passing through the filter (9).

•

If the oil temperature exceeds 71°C the thermal expansion valve shuts down the ducting to tube (8) and oil flows to the

radiator (11) through the tube (10). Once cooled, oil flows back to the compressor through tubes (12) and (8) and filter (9).

•

The oil reaches the compressor (4) mixing with the intake air and creating an air/oil mixture which ensures the seal and the

lubrication of the moving parts of the compressor.

•

The air/oil mixture returns to the tank (6) where the air is pre-separated through spinning and is finally separated from the

oil by the oil separator filter (13).

•

From the tank (6) only air comes out, which reaches the radiator (11) through the tube (15) and the mains through the cut-

off cock (16).

FIRST START-UP

Before starting the machine up for the first time, 

make sure that:

•

the mains voltage is the same as the voltage on the CE plate;

•

the electric connections have been made using cables of proper cross-section;

•

the (wall) main power switch has suitable fuses;

•

the oil level is over the minimum level - top up with the same type of oil if necessary (Shell Corena D46);

•

the air outlet cock is completely open.

CONNECT THE TANK WITH A HOSE.

•

Only specialized technicians can start the compressor (on-site testing) for the first time.

If the machine does not start and the display shows the alarm message “Wrong direction of rotation”, proceed as

follows:

break power supply through the wall switch;

open the electric box door and reverse the two phases in the terminal board;

close the door, power on and start the machine.
