Storage and transportation conditions
Installation guidelines
10. Storage and transportation conditions:
The compressor is dispatched by the manufacturer in a carton
on a non-returnable pallet to protect the appliance from damage
during transportation. Wherever possible, the original packaging
should always be used for transportation. Therefore it is advised
to keep the original packaging.
During transportation the compressor must be protected
from moisture, dirt and extreme temperatures. The packaged
compressors must be stored in a dry place to protect it from
humidity (max. relative air humidity: 70%). Storage temperature
must be between -10°C and +40°C.
The compressor may only be transported unpressurised.
Before it is transported, it is essential that the com-
pressed air from the pressure tank and pressure hoses
is released and any condensate water is drained off.
11. Installation guidelines:
Unpack the compressor and check carefully to ensure that it is in
perfect condition. Assemble the support legs as supplied (see
illustration
1
).
The compressor may only be installed and operated in a dry,
well-ventilated and low-dust location. If there is insufficient air
flow, a suction device or ventilator of the correct dimensions
must be installed. The ambient temperature must be between
+5°C and +40°C.
The motor fan ensures that the power unit is force-cooled
effectively. However, for this to happen, the air must be able to
flow in and out without obstructions. If this is not the case, a
separate ventilation system must be installed (see illustration
2
).
The compressor must be installed in such a way that it is easily
accessible for operation and maintenance. The compressor must
be placed on a level floor which is sufficiently robust.
The compressor must not touch any other objects due to heat
development.
It is not necessary to provide a special foundation or base.
The compressor may simply be placed on a level floor. If the
compressor is fitted in a mounting bracket, then the mounting
bracket should not be secured to the ground. It is recommended
to attach four vibration dampers.
