3.1 Compressor installation
This section contains important instructions which you need to
observe in order to safely install the compressor and to prevent
damage or malfunction.
Warning!
Follow the safety instructions!
Always remain outside the danger zone of a raised load!
Key word
Ensure that
Installation site
•
Surface: Flat, level, firm
•
Building ceilings: Check load bearing
capacity
•
Air: As cool as possible, clean, frost-free,
as little damp as possible
Temp.: +5°C (41°F) - +40°C (104°F)*
•
Sufficient ventilation in the room
•
Air intake must be sufficiently unobstruct-
ed
•
Arrange the air intake opening in such a
way that no loose items can be sucked in
•
The installation site is illuminated (to read
off the instruments, carry out maintenance
work9)
Lifting work
•
Secure any loose, swinging or pivoting
parts before lifting the compressor
•
Use suitable lifting gear
(weight acc. to data sheet)
•
Always remain outside the danger zone of
a raised load
Conduits,
pressure pipes
•
Remove all blank flanges, stoppers, co-
vers and bags with drying agents before
mounting conduits
•
Please ensure that the connection from
the aftercooler to the compressed air sys-
tem can expand as a result of heat and
must be connected by means of a flexible
hose.
Exhaust air
•
An exhaust duct must at minimum have
the diameter of the cooler outlet area and
can be 3m in max. length with one bow of
90°; for longer ducts, use additional fans
with 20% more power than the compres-
sor fan
•
When installing several compressors
please ensure that no compressor sucks
in the heated exhaust air from another
compressor
* Please ask your retailer in the event of higher temperatures.
