hen e inlet control butterfly valve is open air enters the 1st Stage Airend and is ompressed to 26-31 PSIG. The air discharges from the Airend via a venturi used to issipate pressure pulsation. Air then moves from the venturi through the 1st stage

a

2nd Stage Airend into a venturi then the air passes through an expansion joint, this allows some of the turbulence and noise to dissipate. The air then continues to the after

expansion joint and enters the intercooler where it is cooled to 11 degrees centigrade above ambient temperature. Air exits the intercooler through stainless steel piping to moisture separator (epoxy coated internals). Condensate is removed before the air goes to the 2nd Stage Airend. The air exits the

Alointercooler and the aftercooler to collect any condensation from the compressed air. The condensate is drained through electrically opevalves. The opening dof the condensate valves is preset at three seconds and is adjustable between 2 to 20 seconds. The opening between these intervals may be adjusted between 60 and 360 seconds, depending on the ambient temperature. If the environment consists of high temperature and or high humidity, then the interval may have to be reduced to facilitate moisture removal. The factory setting is 180 seconds. To check the operation of the solenoid valves, you should open the manual bypass valves momentarily once per day to check for moistureFor extended shutdown periods, the manual valves should be left open to prevent the accumulation of moisture. Strainers are provided upstream of the condensate valves to prevent any particles from plugging the solenoid valves. Before any maintenance is performed on the strainers or the solenoid valves, the strainer service valves should be closed, in order to isolate them from possible high pressure. The Safety Valve settings for our coso the 1 stage is set at 55psig and the 2 stage is set at 165psig.

The rotors have specially shaped profile lobes which are helically twisted ian axial direction, comparable to a helically toothed pair of gear wheels. The number oflobes in the 1st stage is: the male rotor has 3 lobes and the female rotor has 4 lobes. The number of lobes in the 2nd stage is: The male rotor has 4 lobes and the female rotor has 6 lobes.

Any contact between the rotors is prevented by a pair of timing gears arranged outside the compression chamber. The radial and axial clearances between the

tors and therocasing are alsvery low. Therefore, forincreased safety, small projections

the compressors depends upon reducingvolume of a given amount of air, whicthereby increases the air pressure. With further rotation, the leading strip of the male lobe reaches the contour of the female groove and traps the air in the pocket previouslyformed. The air is moved down the female rotor groove and is compressed as the volume is reduced. When the male rotor lobe reaches the end of the groove, the trapped air is discharged from the Airend.

The oil is drawn through a suction strainer, which is used to filter out large contaminants. The oil proceeds to the suction port on the oil pump and then elevated in pressure to approximately 40 to 60 PSIG. There is a pressure relief valve on the oil pump discharge piping to relieve oil to the sump. This is factory set at 100 PSIG. The oil is discharged to the oil cooler where it’s cooled to approximately 54 to 60°C. A thermally controlled mixing valve is located on the cooler outlet. This valve mixes hot oil, (which bypasses the cooler) and cool oil from the cooler to maintain optimal oil temperature of 54 to 60°C. The oil leaves the thermal mixing valve and proceeds through a 10micron filter, and then is diverted to multiple oil feed points on the two Airends. Pressurized oil is also supplied to the 1SV solenoid valve. It operates the hydraulic cylinder used to load and unload the unit. The oil that has been fed to the bearings is drained from Airends via the oversized drain ports located on the bottom side of the Airends. The oil pressure is controlled by the use of an orifice, sized by the factory located in the oil outlet piping on the 2nd stage Airend housing. The oil level should be maintained at three quarters full with the compressor running.

When an alarm occurs, the word ALARM in large capitals will appear and the display message will indicate what caused the alarm and the Reset Button will appear. A compressor that is running will be shutdown immediately as an ALARM situation arises, causing the Remote Alarm Contacts to change state. The compressor cannot be restarted either manually or automatically, until the Alarm situation has been rectified and the Intellisys Controller reset. An already stopped compressor cannot be started if an Alarm condition exists. Pressing the Status Button will activate the ALARM STATUS screen with the ALARM Button indicating an alarm situation still exists. Alarm status gives a list of operating parameters of the compressor when the ALARM occurred.

ge Discharge Pressure and 3 APT – 2nd Stage Discharge Pressure he Airend discharge is monitored for several reasons to include comparison to line pressure uring separator element differential check and to provide logic for the controller to position the let valve during unloaded operation. The normal unloaded intercooler pressure is maintained t 0 PSI and loaded within a range of 26 to 31 psi to ensure adequate inlet pressure to the 2nd tage to prevent over ratio of the 2nd stage Airend. The normal unloaded 2nd stage discharge ressure is maintained at 0 PSI and loaded to the rated pressure of the machine. This pressure monitored as the unit unloads to ensure the 2nd stage Airend discharge has blown down to tmosphere ensuring that any over ratio situation is detected and the unit stops in an alarm ondition.

emperature Sensors and Descriptions-- 2ATT, 3ATT, 4ATT, 5OTT, 7ATT

emperature sensors are used to monitor temperature changes at various points within the ompressor package. They operate on a 12 V DC circuit. As the temperature of the sensor hanges either higher or lower, the resistance to the sensor changes a corresponding amount. s the output voltage varies due to the temperature changes, the voltage strength is processed y an analog-to-digital converter within the controller. Depending on the output voltage from the arious sensors, the controller makes decisions that may change a number on the panel isplay, delay a differential pressure reading until the compressor warms up, reposition the inlet alve slightly doing cold unloaded operation, provide WARNING about rising temperature or ould possibl ditions dictate.
