INSTALLATION AND OPERATING MANUAL
1.0 INSTALLATION
1.1 General description
The
ICP
Compressor is dry and contactless machines, enclosed in acoustic sound shied and designed to have
cooling air passed through the sound shied by fan. The warm air is exhausted through the vent. The
ICP
is
constructed in modular construction consisting of two compartments: pumping and gear chambers separated by
using labyrinth seals. In the pump chamber, as two rotary claws rotate in opposite direction, the air sucked in,
shall be compressed and discharged under pressure. In the gear chamber (box), two gears for synchronizing of
claws rotation will be located with oil lubrication. For reduction of the noise, inlet silencer shall be installed in
compressor inlet side. For a protection of overload, a pressure safety valve or regulating valve is installed in
exhaust. The compressors are directly driven by a flanged motor via a coupling. The
ICP
Series compressors are
identical in internal construction to
ICV
vacuum pump, but are outfitted with different inlet and outlet accessories
to allow for operation as a compressor.
1.2 Unpacking
Inspect the box and compressor carefully for any signs of damage incurred in transit. Since all compressors are
ordinarily shipped F. O. B. from our factory or regional warehouse, such damage is the normal responsibility of the
carrier and should be reported to them.
The compressor is bolted to the skid with studs that are connected through the rubber feet of compressor.
Remove the nuts from the underside do the crate and remove the compressor. Unscrew the studs from the
rubber feet.
The inlet and exhaust of the compressor are covered with plastic caps to prevent dirt and other foreign
substances from entering compressor. Leave these caps in place until you are ready to pipe the compressor to
your equipment.
1.3 Location
Install the compressor in a horizontal position on a level surface so that the pump can be evenly supported on
its rubber feet. Leave 30 ~ 45 cm of access around the compressor to allow proper cooling. Also, adequate
ventilation must be provided for the cooling,
Allow access to the oil sight glass in order to inspect the oil level regularly, and the oil fill and oil drain port for
easy service.
1.4 Power Requirements
A schematic diagram for the electrical motor terminal connections is located in the junction box of the motor or on
the motor nameplate. Typical wirings for Three Phase Motors are as below:
