2.1 INTRODUCTION
Your new Sullair flood--lubricated rotary screw air
compressor will provide you with a unique experi-
ence in improved reliability and greatly reduced
maintenance.
Compared to other types of compressors, the Sull-
air rotary screw is unique in mechanical reliability,
with “no wear” and “no inspection” required of the
working parts within the compressor unit.
Read Sec t ion 7 ( Maintenanc e) in the O per ator ’s and
Parts List Manual to see how surprisingly easy it is to
keep your air compressor in top operating condition.
2.2 DESCRIPTION OF COMPONENTS
Refer t o F igur es 2 -- 1 and 2 -- 2 . T he c omponents and
assemblies of the air compressor are clearly shown.
The complete package includes compressor , elec-
tric motor , starter , compressor inlet system ,
compressor discharge system , compressor lu-
brication and cooling system , capacity control
system , instrument panel , aftercooler , a com-
bination separator and trap , all mounted on a
heavy gauge steel frame.
On air--cooled models, a fan draws air over the mo-
tor and forces it out through the combined aftercool-
er and fluid cooler thereby removing the compres-
sion heat from the compressed air and the cooling
fluid.
On water--cooled models, a shell and tube heat ex-
changer is mounted on the compressor frame. Fluid
is piped into the heat exchanger where compression
heat is removed from the fluid. Another similar heat
exchanger cools the compressed air.
Both air--cooled and water--cooled versions have
easily accessible items such as the fluid filters and
control valves. The inlet air filter is also easily acces-
sible for servicing.
