MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE
7.01 MAINTENANCE OPERATIONS
:
Your compressor needs regular maintenance and service over time. In addition to stretching the life of
the machine, regular maintenance keeps it performing consistently and running efficiently.
During its work cycles the compressor requires regular maintenance that must be performed by
technicians trained by Nardi Compressori.
In case maintenance is not performed by our technicians, it is very important to follow the guidelines
of the maintenance checklist in all its parts.
In the maintenance checklist you will find all the maintenance operations scheduled that should be
performed based on the hours of operation of the compressor.
It is very important to register any and all maintenance operations performed on the compressor, in
order to keep a historical record of the parts that have been replaced, the date maintenance was done,
the hours of operation of the machine up to the date maintenance is done and the signature of the
qualified technician who serviced the machine.
IMPORTANT: All maintenance operations must be performed by the technical staff of
NARDI COMPRESSORI or by qualified technical staff.
IMPORTANT: All maintenance operations must be performed with the machine
switched off and the power cable disconnected.
7.02 LUBRICATION SYSTEM:
NARDI compressors have two different lubrication systems:
Splash Lubrication:
This method of lubrication is done mechanically with
the movement of the connecting rod. With every rotation, a dipper, at
the bottom of the connecting rod is submerged in oil at high speed.
When the dipper emerges from the oil sump in the lower part of the
crankcase, the oil is thrown upward as droplets or fine mist, providing
adequate lubrication to the cylinders and the crankshaft.
Force-feed Lubrication:
This type of lubrication is done through an oil
gear pump that force-feeds oil and that is driven by the shaft..
Oil sucked from the sump is pumped to the piston of the last stage
and filtered by a micron filter. In its movement the oil pump sprays oil
to all moving parts.
7.03 OIL:
Oil is a very important component for the life of the compressor over time. Nardi Compressori has studied in detail the
compressor so that it has a large capacity oil sump and oil filter. A magnet has been fixed on the case to attract all
metallic impurities that settle at the bottom of the case.
Nardi Compressori recommends using our oil that has been designed and tested specifically for this machine. The
compressor is usually supplied with oil to be used only with non-mixed air (21% O²).
