ULTRA CLEAN OILLESS COMPRESSOR
INSTALLATION
1.
OILLESS COMPRESSOR LOCATION REQUIREMENTS
The Ultra Clean Oilless Compressor location should be level, accessible and well ventilated.
If the Ultra Clean Oilless Compressor will be located in a confined space, provide adequate ventilation.
Electrical
(1) Line voltage must be within the limits of Figure 1 below. (Install a “buck-boost
transformer” if line voltage is not between these values.) Provide a separate line for
each motor. Circuit breaker switches must be 20 - 30 amp depending on model
and voltage necessary.
(2) Local code may require you to provide one quick disconnect (safety switch) for each
compressor motor.
(3) See Figure 1 below for breaker size and line voltage.
CAUTION - Voltage must be 208/240 V or motor damage may occur.
CAUTION - Voltage must be 110/130 V or motor damage may occur.
