Compressed air outlet
Air flow
Air is drawn through air filter (100) and is compressed by the compressor element (101).
Next, the compressed air flows through the check valve (105) and the air cooler (106).
Single phase units are equipped with a solenoid valve (109) and a silencer (110) for easy
starting at low voltage.
On floor mounted versions without refrigerant dryer, the air flows then directly to the
outlet valve (121). On receiver mounted units, the compressed air flows into the air
receiver (120), onto which the outlet valve AV (121) is fitted.
On compressors with refrigerant dryer, the compressed air flows to the refrigerant dryer
(ID), where the water vapor condensates by cooling down. The water is removed via the
integrated water separator (201c) and the electronic drain (210).
For details on the operation of the ID dryer, see section Refrigerant dryer.
Cooling
The compressor element (101) is cooled by an integrated radial fan (102). An axial fan
(107) fitted on the motor shaft provides cooling air for the air cooler (106).
On compressors with integrated refrigerant dryer, a separate fan (204) delivers cooling air
for the dryer.
Condensate management
Floor mounted compressors without refrigerant dryer have no drain. A water separator is
available as option.
The dryer of compressors equipped with a refrigerant dryer has an integrated water
separator (201c) and an electronic water drain (210). The water separator has a manual
drain valve (211) and a connection for the automatic drain. For more details, consult
section Refrigerant dryer.
The receiver of receiver mounted compressors has a manual drain valve (122) at the
bottom. An electronic
