    4| Compressor assembly INFO! N ew compressors are factory-filled with inert gas (3 bar nitrogen). Leave this service charge in the compressor for as long as possible and prevent the ingress of air. Check the compressor for transport damage before starting any work. 4.1 Setting up WARNING! M ove compressors only with hoists that have adequate load-bearing capacity.
  • Page 12: V-Belt Drive Gb

    4| Compressor assembly 4.3 V-belt drive ATTENTION! Inappropriately designed belt drives, especially belt knocking or excessive tensioning forces can cause compressor damage! Make sure that the drive belt is designed correctly, e.g. by using t ensioners and selecting the belt profile and the belt length. During operation with capacity controllers (Accessories, Chap. 7), the changing load can cause increased running noises and belt drive vibrations.
  • Page 13: Pipe Connections

    4| Compressor assembly 4.6 Pipe connections T he pipe connections have stepped internal d iameters so that pipes with standard millimetre and inch dimensions can be used. T he connection diameters of the shut-off valves are designed for maximum compressor output. The required pipe cross-section must be matched to the capacity. The same applies for non-return valves.

  • Page 15: Commissioning

    5| Commissioning 5.1 Preparations for start-up INFO! To protect the compressor against inadmissible operating conditions, high-pressure and low-pressure pressostats are mandatory on the installation side. The compressor has undergone trials in the factory and all functions have been tested. There are therefore no special running-in instructions. Check the compressor for transport damage! 5.2 Pressure strength test DANGER! Bursting! The compressor must only be pressurised using nitrogen ).
  • Page 16: Refrigerant Charge

    5| Commissioning 5.5 Refrigerant charge CAUTION! Wear personal protective clothing such as goggles and protective gloves! ATTENTION! Avoid overfilling the system with refrigerant! To avoid shifts in concentration, zeotropic refrigerant blends (e.g. R407C) must always be added to the refrigerating plant in liquid form. Do not pour liquid refrigerant through the suction line valve on the compressor. It is not permissible to mix additives with the oil and refrigerant. Make sure that the suction and discharge line valves are open. With the compressor switched off, add the liquid refrigerant directly to the condenser or receiver, breaking the vacuum. If the refrigerant needs topping up after starting the compressor, it can be topped up in vapour form on the suction side, or, taking suitable precautions, also in liquid form at the inlet to the evaporator.
  • Page 17: Shaft Seal, Emptying The Oil Reservoir

    5| Commissioning The compressor shaft is sealed to outside using a shaft seal. The sealing element rotates with the shaft. The following is especially important to ensuring fault-free operation: The complete refrigerant circuit must be correctly executed and clean inside. Heavy shocks and vibrations to the shaft as well as continuous cyclic operation are to be avoided. T he sealing surfaces can stick together during prolonged downtimes (e.g. winter). Therefore, run the system every 4 weeks for 10 minutes. 5.8 Shaft seal, emptying the oil reservoir As changing the shaft seal involves opening the refrigerant circuit, this is recommended only if the seal is losing refriger- ant. Replacing the shaft seal is described in the spare part kit concerned. Emptying the oil reservoir: The oil reservoir can be emptied very simple without having to dismantle the coupling and/or belt drive. It is recommended that this is done at the same time as the air-conditioning maintenance and motor service. To proceed, detach the oil hose from the bracket, remove the sealing plug and drain the oil into a collecting vessel. After emptying, reseal the oil hose and clamp it into the bracket. Dispose of the used oil in accordance with national regulations. Fig. 19 5.9 Avoiding liquid shocks ATTENTION! Slugging can damage the compressor and cause refrigerant to leak.
  • Page 18: Maintenance

    6| Maintenance 6.1 Preparation WARNING! Before starting any work on the compressor: Switch off the compressor and secure it to prevent a restart. Relieve compressor of system pressure. Prevent air from infiltrating the system! After maintenance has been performed: Connect safety switch. Evacuate compressor. Release switch lock. 6.2 Work to be carried out Oil change: In principle, an oil change is not mandatory if the system is correctly manufactured and operated. However, based on decades of experience we recommend that the following oil change/service work is carried out: -...

  • Page 20: Accessories

    7| Accessories 7.1 Capacity regulation ATTENTION! Capacity-regulated operation alters the gas speeds and pressure r atios of the refrigerating plant: Adjust the suction line routing and dimensioning accordingly, do not set the control intervals too close and do not let the system switch more than 12 times per hour (refriger- ating plant must have reached a state of equilibrium). Continuous operation in the control stage is not recommended as the gas velocity in the plant system under certain circumstances does not guarantee sufficient oil return to the compressor with activated capacity regulator for a compressor speed below 1200 - 1500 rpm.
