INSTALLATION
4.1 COMPRESSOR
MOUNTING— SUPPORT
AND LOCATION
A foundation or mounting capable of supporting the
weight of the compressor, and rigid enough to
maintain the compressor frame level and the
compressor in alignment is required. The
compressor frame must be leveled and secured with
foundation bolts, and full uniform contact must be
maintained between the frame and foundation. It is
recommended that the frame be grouted to the
foundation. The compressor unit and driver must be
aligned after installation as specified in the
Operator’s Manual. No piping loads shall be
transmitted to the compressor or the cooling package
at the external connections.
• Use flex connectors to prevent piping loads
from being transmitted to the compressor.
• National and local electrical codes specify-
ing the required clearances for the area
around the electrical panel must be com-
plied with.
• Ensure the lighting at the compressor’s
location is sufficient for safe operation and
maintenance.
• The compressor’s location should be one
that allows access for maintenance vehi-
cles and lifting equipment.
• The clearances around the compressor
should permit easy access to all compres-
sor components.
• Walls and ceilings with soft or porous sur-
faces absorb sound and reduce ambient
noise levels. Hard surfaces reflect noise
and have little effect on ambient noise lev-
els.
• Water-cooled compressors must be located
where a cooling water supply and drainage
are available.

OMPRESSORS
• Air-cooled compressors require a three foot
(one meter) clearance around their perime-
ter.
• The location should be free from standing
water.
• Clean air should be supplied to the com-
pressor, free from exhaust and paint
fumes, dust, metal particles, or caustic
chemical vapors.
• Hot exhaust air should be vented out of the
area to prevent its recirculation back into
the compressor’s cooling system.
• Ducting or some other means must be
used to ensure that hot exhaust air is
vented away from the compressor if the
compressor’s housing has minimal over-
head clearance.
NOTE
When the compressor will be exposed to
temperatures lower than 32°F(0°C) the
cold weather option for freeze protection
must be installed. Consult Sullair Cus-
tomer Care regarding operation on sub-
freezing temperatures.
NOTE
Compressors operated in environments
where ambient temperatures average
above 104°F(40°C) must be equipped with
the high-ambient option.
