Functional description

Conditions of use
The ZIRKON rotary vane compressors are intended for use in the commercial
sector, i.e. the safety arrangements conform to DIN EN ISO 13857 for
persons aged from 14 years.
They are suitable for the transport of air having a relative humidity of 30% to
a maximum of 90% and of dry, non-aggressive gases.
Pressure difference
The highest permissible pressure difference (excess pressure) for air is
dependent upon the component motor. It is indicated on the type plate, or
can be found for standard pressures/frequencies in the following data pages:

At operations above the stated pressure differences, the motor becomes
over-loaded. In addition to the pressure difference, the highest permissible
current strength indicated on the type plate must be adhered to.
Since the charge is dependent upon the thickness of the transport medium,
the transport of gases will have different pressure difference limits than those
for air. Please consult the manufacturer.
DANGER!
Unintentional stoppage or interruption:
In the case of an operation in which an unintentional stoppage of or inter-
ruption in the compressor leads to a risk of injury to personnel or damage to
equipment, appropriate safety measures to the equipment must be initiated!
