Ambient air is cleaned as it is drawn in through the filter
8
.
The air is then compressed in the airend
5
.
The airend is driven by an electric motor
3
.
Cooling oil is injected into the airend. It lubricates moving parts and forms a seal between the rotors
themselves and between them and the airend casing. This direct cooling in the compression chamber
ensures a very low airend discharge temperature.
Cooling oil recovered from the compressed air in the oil separator tank
7
gives up its heat in the oil
cooler
9
. The oil then flows through the oil filter
4
and back to the point of injection. Pressure within
the machine keeps the oil circulating. A separate pump is not necessary. A thermostatic valve main‐
tains optimum cooling oil temperature.
Compressed air, freed of cooling oil in the oil separator tank
7
, flows through the minimum pressure/
check valve
2
into the air cooler
9
. The minimum pressure/check valve ensures that there is always
a minimum internal air pressure sufficient to maintain cooling oil circulation in the machine.
The air cooler brings down the compressed air temperature of only 5 to 10 K above ambient. Most of
the moisture carried in the air is removed during this cooling process.
