7.2
Routine commissioning
Danger
Make sure before commissioning that nobody is in
the danger zone of the motor/screw compressor.
After completion of work: Verify that all safety
devices have been refitted and that all tools have
been removed.
Only operate the screw compressor unit with
closed access panels.
For routine commissioning, proceed as follows:
•
Check oil level in the pressure reservoir (see also
chapter 6.4).
•
Open shut-off valves between the screw
compressor, reservoir and pipe.
•
Switch on the power supply master switch.
•
After the power supply was switched on, all LEDs
on the compressor control GD Pilot MK light up for a
display test. The fault shown on the display [FAULT
POWER LOSS] must be acknowledged before the
unit can be started. To this end, press the
acknowledgement push-button [
Θ
] (- 4 - Fig. 16).
•
After the acknowledgement, the message [READY
TO START] appears on the display, unless another
fault is present.
•
Press START button [ I ] (- 2 - Fig. 16).
•
To switch off the compressor in the usual way use
the STOP button (- 3 - Fig. 16) and not the
emergency STOP button (- 1 - Fig. 16). After
shutdown the compressor has a run on time of
30-50 seconds (soft-stop).
Start-up protection of the electric motor
The screw compressor unit will not start up if the final
compression pressure is more than 0.8 bar / 11, 6 PSI.
Temperature start-up protection
The screw compressor unit will not start up if the ambi-
ent temperature is lower than + 1 °C/33.8 °F.
7.3
Commissioning after malfunction
Important
Do not switch the screw compressor on repeatedly
without having rectified the malfunction, since this
may cause considerable damage to the machine.
Re-start after an automatic shutdown due to a
malfunction as follows:
•
Faults are shown on the display of the compressor
control GD Pilot MK in the form of text.
•
Turn master switch off.
•
Eliminate fault.
•
Turn master switch on.
•
Press acknowledgement push-button [
Θ
]
(- 4 - Fig. 16)
•
After the acknowledgement, the message [READY
TO START] appears on the display, unless another
fault is present.
•
Press START button [ I ] (- 2 - Fig. 16).
