PREFACE AND MANUAL OVERVIEW
Rogers KI and KIV Series rotary screw air compressors are designed for efficiency and longevity. Their
professional engineering, rugged design and quality construction will provide many years of trouble-free
operation if proper temperatures and lubrication are maintained.
The control panel provides visual indicators and audible alarms to inform you when attention is required
for proper care. Regular monitoring of these instruments will assist you with maintaining your preventive
maintenance program.
The KI/KIV Series electrical system communicates to the control panel providing ALERT and ALARM
signals. An ALERT notification indicates the compressor needs attention but has not shut down. For
example, a High Temperature Alert would indicate the compressor could be running hot and shut down is
imminent. Alerts are also used to notify you that service is required. A control panel ALARM indicates the
compressor has shut down and needs immediate attention. Refer to the CDP controller FAULT HISTORY
and the Description of Operation, Display and Controls Manual.
A list of replacement, service and repair parts are listed in the Parts List manual specific to the model of
your compressor. Contact your Rogers factory representative for more information.
The instructions contained in this manual cover compressor cleanliness of air and lubricant systems and
maintaining acceptable operating temperatures.
Detailed information regarding the compressor control panel is covered in the KI/KIV Description of
Operations / Display and Controls manual. Contact Rogers Machinery at 360-736-9356 for manual
information.
The warranty is a statement of value and confidence, and it is contingent upon proper maintenance and
attention
MODEL AND SERIAL NUMBERS
We recommend you take a moment to locate the Rogers Machinery ID Nameplate rivetted on every
compressor. Please write the MODEL and SERIAL numbers stamped on your compressor’s nameplate in
the space provided on the front cover of this manual. This way your compressor’s information will be at
hand if you need to speak with a Rogers Machinery representative.
The ID nameplate will look like this sample and will have your specific MODEL and SERIAL # stamped on
it.
