America

January 2017

The switching function of the contacts can be

checked by an electrician.

Functional check of the safety valves

The functional checking of the safety valve must

be carried out by a safety specialist. The result of

the functional check must be documented.

1

Lockout and Tagout.

2

Open the enclosure, create access.

3

Press start button < I > 

to allow the compressor to run under load.

NOTICE

Hearing damage

Increased sound pressure level when operated

without noise-reducing enclosure.

Wear hearing protection.

WARNING

Risk of burns/scalding

Risk of burns/scalding due to escaping

hot oil (oil mist) / hot compressed air.

Wear suitable protective clothing.

Slowly unscrew the knurled cap.

Do not unscrew the knurled cap too

far out of the housing.

Tighten the knurled cap to the stop

again after every functional test.

Valve cap

4

Rotate the valve cap counter-clockwise until a

clear blow-off is heard.

5

Turn the valve cap clockwise up to the stop.

The valve must shut fully again.

8.4

Routine maintenance

All maintenance work and testing listed in the

maintenance plan must be performed and

documented at the intervals listed.
All maintenance, repairs, and service work

performed on the compressor must be

documented.
Service and maintenance work should be

performed by the local Gardner Denver

representative.

Cleanliness

The compressor room and the environment of the

compressor must always be kept clean.
The compressor must be checked regularly for

damage and excessive wear.
Spilled oil must be wiped up immediately. Oil

traces must be removed immediately.

Electrical connections

The condition of cables and terminals must be

checked regularly.

Watch for loose connections or worn wires.
All connections must be clean and tight.
Replace worn or damaged wires or cables

immediately.

Leak points

WARNING

Risk of injury due to high pressure

Do not use the hand to search for

leaking points in the system.

Always use paper or cardboard for

this purpose.

If a leak is suspected, check the appropriate

area for leaks.
Immediately repair or replace damaged or

leaking pipe and hose connections.

Emission or leakage of consumable materials

The following consumables are used in the

compressor:

Compressor oil AEON 9000SP
POLYREX EM lubricating grease

In case of accident or extended contact with

consumable materials, follow the instructions on

the material safety data sheets.
Prevent leakage of operating fluids.

Carefully clear up any operating fluids that escape.

Observe the information in the hazardous

substance data sheets!
