Description Of Components; Sullair Compressor Unit, Functional Description - Sullair TS32 Series User Manual

2.1 DESCRIPTION OF
COMPONENTS
Refer to Figure 2-1 (air-cooled) or Figure 2-2
(watercooled). The components and assemblies of
the air compressors are clearly shown. The complete
package includes compressor,
compressor inlet system, compressor discharge
system, compressor cooling and lubrication system,
capacity control system, and Supervisor control
system, all mounted on a structural steel frame.
On air-cooled models, a separate motor-driven fan
forces air through the cooler/aftercooler assembly,
thereby removing the heat of compression from the
cooling fluid.
On water-cooled models, fluid is piped into a
fourpass exchanger where the heat of compression
is removed from the fluid. A fan is used to supply
sufficient ventilating air to the compressors equipped
with a canopy.
Both air-cooled and water-cooled versions have
easily accessible items such as the fluid filters and
control valves. The inlet air filters are also mounted
for easy access and servicing.

2.2 SULLAIR COMPRESSOR
UNIT, FUNCTIONAL
DESCRIPTION
Sullair air compressors
compressor unit, a two-stage, positive displacement,
lubricated-type compressor. This unit provides
continuous pulse-free air compression to meet your
needs. With a Sullair compressor, there is no
maintenance or inspection of the internal parts of the
compressor unit permitted in accordance with the
terms of the warranty.
Fluid is injected into the compressor unit in large
quantities and mixes directly with the air as the rotors
turn, compressing the air. The fluid flow has three
primary functions. It cools, seals and lubricates the
compressor.
