Installing the compressor
Installation conditions
for compressed air
receivers
The following information applies to supplied compressed air receivers and
compressed air receivers with modular compressors (EO 6 R, EO 6 DR,
EO 6 TR).
Installation conditions
for DRL 6-2 and DS
dryers
These dryers are designed for operation at an ambient temperature of +25°C
However, the room temperature must not fall below + 5°C, otherwise the con-
densate may freeze.
WARNING
Risk of injury due to overpressure!
In the event of damage, malfunctioning or incorrect use, air under high pres-
sure can escape from pipelines or individual components and cause severe
injuries.
–
Protect the compressed air receiver against mechanical damage (e.g.
from falling objects).
–
Exposure of the compressed air receiver to additional static and dynamic
loads, voltages or vibration stress is not permitted.
–
Operate the compressed air receiver and its equipment from a safe loca-
tion.
–
Observe safety areas and safety clearances. Ensure that the compressed
air receiver is easily accessible from all sides (e.g. for recurrent inspec-
tions). The required operating and maintenance areas should be taken
from the attached dimensioned drawing.
–
Ensure that the compressed air receiver is positioned securely. It must
not shift or tilt when subjected to external forces. This also includes the
additional weight imposed during a pressure test!
–
The compressed air receiver must
not
be bolted to the ground.
–
Ensure that the name plate is clearly visible.
–
Ensure that the compressed air receiver is adequately protected against
corrosion (galvanised receiver).
–
In accordance with EN 286-1, compressed air receivers must only be
used for compressors operating in cut-in and cut-out mode where the
pressure fluctuation range amounts to
Δ
p
≤
10% of the maximum oper-
ating pressure.
–
In accordance with AD 2000, compressed air receivers must only be
used for compressors operating in cut-in and cut-out mode where the
pressure fluctuation range amounts to
Δ
p
≤
20% of the maximum oper-
ating pressure.
Read and observe the documentation provided with the receiver!
NOTE
The design conditions must be observed for operation at other ambient
temperatures.
