PNEUMAX PTO-driven Compressor Installation Guide
Installation Overview This guide is for installation of the compressor system. There may be some variables depending on specific applications. Since there are many ways to which discharges can be configured, if the application on a particular vehicle is not covered in this guideline, we will be happy to assist with specific needs of the customer in the design of the system.
Note: Air is always injected after the water/solution valve. This will give each discharge the best performance possible.

Power take-off suggestions There are many PTO suppliers and various types of transmissions available, and the choice of PTO will in part depend on what can be installed in the vehicle. "Hot Shift" PTOs are commonly used.
Make sure that there will be room to install the air compressor on a bracket close to the PTO, with their drive angles matched.
Caution: The driveline angles MUST be matched to prevent serious damage to the compressor, PTO, or transmission.
Specific gear ratios vary among the different transmissions and PTO suppliers. The ratios suggested below are a guide for selecting the PTO. With these ratios, the rated CFM is usually achieved with the engine speed between 1400 to 1600 RPM.
Caution: A higher speed on the PTO means the CAFS system will reach the desired CFM at lower engine speeds. Exceeding the compressor's rated RPM can damage the compressor, and void the warranty. In such applications, an over speed cut-out should be installed on the PTO to protect the compressor.
DO NOT engage PTO above 1000 Engine RPM.
To calculate the possible compressor RPM, use this equation: Engine RPM x gear ratio on PTO x compressor gear ratio = compressor RPM

PTO installation Follow the PTO manufacturer's installation guidelines.
Caution: Because the compressor is cooled by water from the water pump, we strongly suggest that the compressor is only engaged while the water pump is engaged. This is accomplished by using the "OK to PUMP" circuit to trigger the PTO system.
Wiring the PTO switch circuit in parallel with the "OK to Pump" light is one way to ensure that the PTO and compressor cannot be activated unless the fire pump is engaged.

Air compressor installation Compressor mounting bracket is supplied with kit. Mounting bolts of the proper size are provided with the Compressor Kits since these are metric thread. The installer can manufacture a mounting bracket for the Compressor if so desired.
Caution: The air compressor cannot be installed on its side. It must remain upright, with the air intake on the top. Once again, remember that the driveline angles on the compressor need to match the driveline angles on the Power train. If driveline angles are not matched, this could result in bad vibration issues that could lead to driveline failure or cause the Air Compressor to fail.
If you have questions concerning driveline angles, please contact your driveline supplier.
The air inlet on the Air Compressor can be turned to any direction, as the bolt pattern is symmetrical. This way the air inlet can be turned any direction to ease installation of the air filter.
The air filter is supplied with the kit along with a T-Bolt clamp. For basic installation, the air inlet tubing supplied to connect the filter to the air inlet is steel tubing and rubber.
Remember it is an air inlet, just as in an engine. The easiest thing we have found is aluminum or steel tubing thin wall. DO NOT use flexible exhaust tubing or anything water or dirt can easily penetrate.

Air-oil sump installation
Note: Pneumax will not be responsible for systems where the sump and sight glass are installed such that the oil level cannot be checked or does not display the correct oil level due to improper installation.
The sump works best when it is installed so that the sight glass opening is at or below the level of the Air Compressor.
In some cases, finding room for the sump can be difficult. It is acceptable to mount the oil sump up to 12 inches higher than the air compressor; however this may require the installation of an oil inject check valve to prevent oil from flooding the compressor. It is usually fine, though, without this check valve. Oil inject check valve may be ordered from Pneumax when ordering the system or can be installed after the system has been tested. Suggested part numbers for this check valve are available through Pneumax.
The oil fill-sight glass on the Oil Sump is next to the oil fill port. It is necessary to locate the sight glass in an accessible location for ease of checking or adding oil, usually near a door. It is the responsibility of the installer to make sure the oil can be reasonably checked and added if necessary.
Suggested oil to be used in the system:
• ISO 68 wt Hydraulic Low Foaming Anti-Foaming

Oil Temperature Gauge (all sumps) Mount the gauge on the pump operator's control panel where it will be easy to monitor.
• The gauge connects to the larger of the two prongs on the sender.
• The smaller prong, which is labeled "WK", may be used to activate an oil temperature warning light or alarm (not provided). Pneumax recommends installing an over-temperature device. This prong is one side of a temperature sensitive switch that will close at 250°F. The other side is grounded through the metal of the sump. The prong can be connected to the negative side of an audible alarm or warning light.
• Follow the installation instructions in the temperature gauge box to connect the sender to the gauge and the optional warning light.

Separator/filter installation The separator filter can be installed anywhere there is room to securely mount it and run the hydraulic and air lines. The only requirements are to make sure that the filter element can be serviced reasonably and that the assembly is installed properly.
• Install it vertically, with the housing up, the filter element down. • Make sure there is room to remove and replace the filter element.

Air Compressor Cooler and Hydraulic Filter Installation
Caution: Do not install a shutoff valve in the heat exchanger water supply. This will result in system overheat and failure, and void the manufacturer’s warranty.
The oil returning to the compressor is cooled by passing it through a water-cooled heat exchanger, usually called the cooler.
Compressor Cooler Assembly
• Hydraulic filter functions as the oil inlet. Oil outlet is the #8JIC fitting on the other end. • Hook up incoming water line to the wye strainer. Water outlet is just to the left of the
Wye strainer. The drain is the lower 3/8” FNPT fitting. • Install the cooler so that it can be drained to prevent freeze damage. • The cooler must be installed horizontally (COOLER CANNOT STAND ON END),
with the drain at the lowest point, and with a slight slope toward the water drain end. • The drain hose should be 0.500”I.D. minimum to provide proper drainage. • The outlet of the drain hose must be lower than the cooler's drain outlet and the drain
hose should be a continuous downward run (no goosenecks) to allow proper drainage.
To mount the cooler on the side of a compartment, unbolt the brackets from the ends
and reattach them so the cooler can be installed with the drain at the lowest point.

Connecting the cooler water lines and wye-strainer The cooler water is supplied by diverting water through the wye-strainer supplied by Pneumax from the discharge side of the fire pump (see the Hydraulic Schematic). The cooling water supply hose should be 0.5” to 0.625 I.D. for the 140/200-SP to supply the proper flow for cooling the system. The cooler discharge water may be routed back to the booster tank fill tower or returned to the inlet side of the pump.
Normally, coolant water is returned to the booster tank and a check valve is installed in-line to prevent backflow from the tank through the cooler and so as not to interrupt drafting operations (A ½” check valve is supplied with the kit). However, during drafting and hydrant-supplied operations, the booster tank may overflow because of the cooler water return. If this is objectionable, route the return line to the inlet side of the pump. In this case, it is not necessary to install an in-line check valve, but it will be necessary for the pump operator to open the tank fill valve during operation to prevent overheating the fire pump.
Wye Strainer for Cooler A wye-strainer is installed to strain water before it enters the cooler's water supply inlet. The wye strainer is a service item and should be in an accessible location for service and/or cleaning.
Caution: Pneumax is not responsible for damage due to plugged strainers. If the customer’s water system contains excessive debris, or the vehicle relies on drafting for its water supply, it may be necessary to install a larger strainer and/or a clean-out valve on the wye-strainer. Without good water flow through the heat exchanger, the compressor will overheat. Compressor performance will be inadequate, and it may fail completely. Omitting the Wye-strainer or removing the screen from the Wye does not improve water flow. It will allow debris into the cooler, which can clog the tiny heat exchanger tubes and restrict water flow.
Hydraulic Filter Installation
Caution: This is a one-way filter. Oil must flow in the direction indicated by the arrows on the top of the filter.
The hydraulic filter should be mounted to the compressor cooler. This eliminates the need to find a mounting location and simplifies the system hosing. It is best to keep the hydraulic hose runs as short as possible, especially for the #8 lines from the sump to the filter/cooler and to the oil inject at the compressor.
• Make sure there is enough room so the filter can be removed and replaced. • Make sure the direction of oil flow is correct.

Installation and Adjustment of the Auto-Sync Air Balancing System
Colored hoses and fittings are supplied with the compressor kit for the average installation. The schematic is color coded to simplify installation. This also makes future service issues easier to resolve, provided suggested hose colors are used. CAFS retrofit kits and any other system shipped as separate components will need calibrating after installation.
Note: Before you make any adjustments, make sure the oil level in the sump is correct, and the air lines do not have leaks or obstructions. Do not adjust the Auto-Sync components to compensate for problems elsewhere in the CAF system.
Always start by adjusting UNLOAD mode, then FIXED, then AUTO.
Auto-Sync 1. UNLOAD Mode Adjustment
1. Set the controls on the Auto-Sync control panel to FIXED and UNLOAD. (UNLOAD for electric valves)
Manual Valve Control
2. Close all air discharges. 3. Locate the Air Inlet Trim Valve, near the air inlet on the compressor.

4. Turn the valve clockwise until it is completely closed, then open it three full turns. 5. Locate the Piloted Balance Valve (PBTV), and turn the needle valve counterclockwise to
full open.
PBT Valve
Piloted Balance Trim Valve (PBTV)
6. Start the fire pump, and with the engine at idle, establish water flow through a discharge or tank recirculation.
7. Engage the PTO.
Caution: Do not engage the PTO above 1000 engine RPM.
8. With 140/200-SP systems, the main pressure gauge should read approximately 40 PSI with all discharges closed. Some systems may read lower. This is acceptable.
2. FIXED Mode Adjustment The usual pressure for a newly installed PTO retrofit kit is about 110 PSI. It must be adjusted to 150 PSI. 1. Locate the Fixed/Manual Pressure Regulator on the compressor and loosen the lock nut
on the adjustment screw. 2. Place the controls on the Auto-Sync control panel to FIXED and RUN. Wait until the
compressor pressure stabilizes. 3. The target operating pressure is 145-150 PSI. Monitor the air pressure reading as you
adjust the regulator screw. Give the system several seconds to stabilize between adjustments, and make partial turns of the screw to avoid overshooting the target pressure. • Turning the screw IN (CW) will increase pressure. • Turning the screw OUT (CCW) will decrease pressure.
4. After the desired fixed pressure is achieved, tighten the lock nut. 5. Verify that the fixed regulator is performing properly by varying the engine speed as you
watch the air pressure gauge. The pressure should remain steady at the setting you made. Repeat steps 2 through 7 of previous step if needed. Turn the control to UNLOAD and back to RUN (To UNLOAD and back to FIXED for electric valves). The air pressure should rise to the fixed pressure. It may overshoot and drop back to the target pressure, but that is normal.
After the FIXED mode is adjusted, proceed to AUTO mode adjustment.
Pneumax PTO-Driven Compressor Kit Installation Guide
Page 17 of 36
3. AUTO Mode Adjustment The pressure for the FIXED mode must have been correctly set before you attempt to adjust the AUTO mode.
1. Make sure the fire pump is operating at 100 PSI at the main discharge, with minimal flow.
2. Place the controls on the Auto-Sync control panel to AUTO and RUN. 3. Read the main air pressure and water discharge pressure gauges. 4. The air pressure reading should be equal or up to 5% higher than the water pressure. If
the readings are in this range, go to step 7 and verify the operation at other pressures. 5. If the air pressure is not within +5% of the water pressure, adjust it as follows:
• If the air pressure is too high, turn the Air Inlet Trim Valve clockwise in 1/2 turn increments to close it, checking air and water pressure after each 1/2 turn.
• If the air pressure is too low, turn the Air Inlet Trim Valve counterclockwise 1/2 turn to open it and check pressures. If the air pressure is still too low, open the valve another 1/2 turn and check the pressures again. Do not open the Air Inlet Trim Valve more than this. Use the PBTV if the pressure remains too low.
6. If the air pressure remains too low, close the needle valve on the Piloted Balance Trim Valve (PBTV) one full turn clockwise and check the pressure gauges. Repeat closing the PBTV one full turn until the air pressure is equal to or up to 5% higher than the water pressure. If the air pressure is too high after a full-turn of the PBTV, turn the Air Inlet Trim Valve clockwise to lower the pressure until the air pressure is equal to or up to 5% higher than the water pressure.
7. Verify the Auto-Sync system settings by varying the fire pump discharge pressure and monitoring the water and air pressure gauges. The air pressure should rise and fall with the water pressure, matching it within 5%. Pressures should match at static pressure only. It is normal for the pressures to be unmatched when flowing water, air, or solution.

Suggested components for CAFS discharges:
Discharge kits Kits are available for most of the valve types (Waterous, Akron, Elkhart) or suggested components lists are also available. Please contact Pneumax for assistance.
Fittings on all hoses should be 37 JIC.
Air distribution manifold: Suggest NPT fittings with appropriate number and size ports.
Suggested air hose The interior diameter (I.D.) of the hose is the most important factor, and any hose with the correct I.D. and rated to withstand the expected air system pressures (500 PSIG burst pressure) may be used.
We have found the most cost-effective hose is the push-on type hose, which is made by Weatherhead. Their H101 or H201 general-purpose hose has an acceptable working pressure. Also, Dayco, Parker and Aeroquip brands will suffice. All of these hoses come in a variety of colors for color-coding the lines by purpose.
For the Hydraulic Circuit of the Compressor system, it is necessary to use SAE100R1 or SAE100R5 at minimum or equivalent.
Hose sizes necessary for installation are:
80-SP 140/200-SP
#4 for the scavenger from the separator filter
#4 for the scavenger from the separator filter
#6 for the oil inject and cooler
#8 for the oil inject and cooler
#16 for the air out to the sump and sump to separator filter
#24 for the air out to the sump and sump to separator filter
Air Pressure Gauge Installer will need to supply air pressure gauge to show system pressures. This gauge is not supplied in standard kits, since there are many different configurations and brands.
