2. CHAPTER
2.1 INSTALLATION OF THE COMPRESSOR AND CONNECTIONS
The floor on which the compressor is mounted should be capable of carrying the weight of
compressor and should be flat and dry. There is no need to fixing (anchorage bolt etc) to the
floor.
The compressor room should be easily accessible and sufficiently illuminated.
For adequate service, the compressor room should have a clearance of at least 1.5 m from
ceiling and 1m from the wall.
Fire and corrosion causing conditions should be prevented in the operation region.
No pipe load (swaggering connections or tensions arise from environmental variations) should
be relayed to compressor by external connections.
Make sure that the air supply equipment is suitable to the operating pressure of the piping and
fittings and is damage free.
Select the diameter of the air supply, dryer and line filters according to your air supply
capacity. (It is beneficiary to select piping of big diameter considering future development of
your company).
Establish a separate line for condense discharge of your filter and dryer and air tanks (water
discharge line); this way the floor of the compressor operating place does not unnecessarily
get wet.
Put an air exit and electric box in your compressor room for general purpose
Your compressor is manufactured for indoor operation.
In case of different needs in relation to compressor or air supply contact service or sale
representative.
2.2 COMPRESSOR ROOM VENTILATION
In order to maintain the operation temperature at a specific value, place your compressor at a
place that adequate air flow is provided. The temperature that compressor operates should be
at least 2 and at most 40 °C. Do not place your compressor where the temperature is less
than + 2 °C and if necessary heat the compressor room.
If you think that there will not be sufficient amount of air flow in the room of operation; it is
necessary to make room ventilation or you must discharge the outgoing hot air the
compressor to outside. When doing this, the outgoing hot air of compressor should not return.
For this reason the hot air outlet and room air inlet should not be on the same side. If
necessary use a fan for discharging the hot air from the room. Place this fan to the closest
point of the compressor hot air outlet
Avoid not expose the compressor cooler to direct sun light or regional strong winds.
Avoid the compressor room being subjected to heat or dust emitted by central heating boiler
or generator type of equipment.
2.3 ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
Ensure that the electrical installation of your compressor is performed by a qualified
electrician.
Your compressor is designed to operate with three phase system. The voltage and frequency
data are written on the template of your compressor and in the "Technical data" part of this
handbook. Suitable cross sections for supply cable selection are shown in "3.2 Energy cable
dimension "section.
Your compressor is designed to operate in + 2 to + 40 °C ambient temperature and at most
1000 meters above the sea level. At higher altitudes, some corrections must be made by
taking into account of environmental conditions. The data related with this is shown in detail at
the maintenance "motor maintenance" section 5 of this handbook.
Attach the grounding cable to the outer side of compressor with a screw marked with
Ensure that the grounding line operates properly.
Working without grounding may be dangerous for the work safety of the personnel
and compressor. In case of failure and critical situation, please properly install your
grounding line in order to prevent death
