6. Initial Operation
6.1
Checking the System
Initial operation, and also the switching on of the system after a long standstill period (more than 4 weeks) has a great influence
on the effective functioning of the compressor/vacuum pump.
We recommend that you take sufficient time for initial operation of the machine. Undue haste could lead to the
omission of important steps, and possible damage to the machine, or injury to personnel.
For faults caused by incorrect initial operation, no warranty claims can be accepted.
Before initial operation
•
Check the machine (transport damage, faulty assembly),
•
Check that the drive guard and contact guards on the discharge pipework are in place,
•
Check the operating data on the machine’s rating plate,
•
Instruct the operating personnel,
•
Communicate information concerning the operation and maintenance of the machine.
6.2
Lubricating Oil
See
section 6.7
, for types of oil.
For the RFL 102, single-grade oils are prescribed. Use of multi-grade oils may result in damage to the machine; in
addition to this, such use cancels the warranty obligations on the part of Gardner Denver.
•
Fill the oil tank to approximately 10 mm below the shoulder.
•
For pre-lubrication, inject approximately ¼ litre of oil into the inlet port. Repeat every 15 minutes for the first 1-2 hours of
operation.
6.3
Valves
Open all manually operated valves.
Always turn the reverse flow valve through its full rotation. Turning the valve partially is not acceptable as hot exhaust air may be
taken back into the machine, causing the machine to overheat.
6.4
Rotating Direction
In initial operation, turn on the drive briefly and check the direction of rotation. Take note of the rotation direction arrows on the
machine body.
6.5
Drive
Switch on the drive and check whether pressure/vacuum is created.
