one of the following operating states:
Ready to start (Standby) [Ready to start]
Loaded operation [On-Load]
Partial load operation (on-load operation at
reduced speed only RS compressors ) [On-
Load]
Idle [Off-Load]
Observations during operations
During operation the compressor must be
regularly checked to ensure leak-tightness of
the oil circuit. With water-cooled systems, this
inspection is extended to the cooling water circuit.
Condensate Drain
The condensate drain on the aftercooler is
actuated via sensor control.
Switching off
1
Press stop button < O > on the control panel.
– The compressor continues running for 30
