Important Safety Information (Continued)
BREATHABLE AIR WARNING
This compressor/pump is not equipped and should not be used “as is” to supply breathing quality
air. For any application of air for human consumption, the air compressor/pump will need to be
fitted with suitable in-line safety and alarm equipment. This additional equipment is necessary to
properly filter and purify the air to meet minimal specifications for Grade D breathing as described
in Compressed Gas Association Commodity Specification G 7.1, OSHA 29 CFR 1910. 134, and/or
Canadian Standards Associations (CSA).
DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES
In the event the compressor is used for the purpose of breathing air application and proper in-line
safety and alarm equipment is not simultaneously used, existing warranties shall be voided, and
Campbell Hausfeld disclaims any liability whatsoever for any loss, personal injury or damage.
General Safety
•
Read all manuals included with this product carefully. Be thoroughly familiar with the controls and the proper
use of the equipment.
•
Follow all local electrical and safety codes as well as the United States National Electrical Codes (NEC) and
Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA).
•
Only persons well acquainted with these rules of safe operation should be allowed to use the compressor.
•
Keep visitors away and NEVER allow children in the work area.
•
Wear safety glasses and use hearing protection when operating the unit.
•
Do not stand on or use the unit as a handhold.
•
Before each use, inspect compressed air system and electrical components for signs of damage,
deterioration, weakness or leakage. Repair or replace defective items before using.
•
Check all fasteners at frequent intervals for proper tightness.
Motors, electrical equipment and controls can cause electrical
arcs that will ignite a flammable gas or vapor. Never operate or repair in or near a flammable
gas or vapor. Never store flammable liquids or gases in the vicinity of the compressor.
Never operate compressor without a beltguard. This unit can
start automatically without warning. Personal injury or property damage could occur from
contact with moving parts.
•
Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry that will get caught in the moving parts of the unit.
Compressor parts may be hot even if the unit is stopped.
•
Keep fingers away from a running compressor; fast moving and hot parts will cause injury and/or burns.
•
If the equipment should start to vibrate abnormally, STOP the engine/motor and check immediately for the
cause. Vibration is generally an indication of trouble.
•
To reduce fire hazard, keep engine/motor exterior free of oil, solvent, or excessive grease.
An ASME code safety relief valve with a setting no higher than the Maximum
Allowable Working Pressure (MAWP) of the tank MUST be installed in the air lines or in the tank
for this compressor. The ASME safety valve must have sufficient flow and pressure ratings to protect the pressurized
components from bursting. The flow rating can be found in the parts manual. The safety valve in the intercooler does
not provide system protection.
Maximum operating pressure is 135 psi for single stage compressors. Do not
operate with pressure switch or pilot valves set higher than 135 psi (single stage).
•
Never attempt to adjust ASME safety valve. Keep safety valve free from paint and other accumulations.
