6.3.2 Startup
CAUTION:
The lubrication oil indicated in the specifications is suited to operating temperatures in the
range +5°C to +40°C: DO NOT START THE MACHINE UP if the ambient temperature is lower
than +5°C, as this can lead to failure of the lubrication system.
Contact the GEA Niro Soavi S.p.A. Service Department who will provide the correct lubricant
for your operating conditions.
CAUTION:
Do not start the machine up if the ambient temperature is less than +5°C before checking the
condition of the piston lubrication water circuit and the water heat exchangers (if present).
Once all preliminary checks have been completed, the machine can be started
as follows:
1) Open all auxiliary service check valves (water, air, steam) and adjust the flow rates if necessary
(such adjustments are normally done at the factory when testing the machine)
CAUTION:
NEVER start the machine with no pumping piston lubrication water or the seal packs and the
pistons will be seriously damaged.
CAUTION:
Excess cooling water can flood the sump or spurt onto the guide pistons, thus allowing water
to enter the transmission casing. It is therefore important to keep the water flow under control
after adjusting it to an approximate flow rate of at least 30 l/h per piston. Regularly drain the
lubrication circuit to drain out any water in the oil.
2) Feed the machine with product observing the flow rate and pressure stated in the TECHNICAL
SPECIFICATIONS enclosed with chapter 11 of this manual.
CAUTION:
Feeding product at a pressure lower than that specified can cause CAVITATION which makes
an unmistakable noise in the compression head and can seriously damage the entire machine.
GEA Niro Soavi S.p.A. shall not be liable for any breakage, malfunction or damage to the
machine caused by CAVITATION even if this occurs during the 12 month warranty period.
3) Power up using the main switch on the electrical enclosure.
4) Press the start button. If the electrical enclosure is supplied by
GEA Niro Soavi S.p.A.
, this starts
the machine in the right sequence for the machine in question and optional equipment present:
- open service solenoid valves (optional);
- start main motor.
If the electrical enclosure is provided by the client, the correct starting sequence is specified (see
TECHNICAL DATASHEETS enclosed with Chapter 11 of this manual) and must be scrupulously
followed.
