Porque é que o meu compressor de marca atlas scopco se desliga quando está em carga ele trabalha uns 10 minutos depois se desliga e o alarme diz alta pressão?

The Atlas Copco XRHS 506 compressor shuts down under load after running for 10 minutes with a high pressure alarm because a parameter setting, such as compressor temperature or pressure, is exceeded. When this happens, the system automatically stops to protect the equipment and will not restart until the parameter returns to within safe limits.

Additional fuelfilter In dusty environments or in situations where the fuel quality is not up to the normal standard, this additional fuel filter gives an extra protection to the fuel/combustion system.
  • Page 91 Instruction Manual Safety and security ABS breaking system Improves braking stability from higher transport speeds compliant to 98/12/EC. External fuel connection When a compressor is operated on site for a longer period it is advisable to supply the fuel through external fuel connections. When using this option the regular refuelling by tanker it is no more needed.
  • Page 92 Instruction Manual Easy handling Undercarriage, wagon or tandem The undercarriage makes it possible to move the compressor on the site with a truck to the location where it is needed. This option exits of rubber damped axles, four wheels and a tow bar.
  • Page 93 Instruction Manual Fork lift slots With fork lift slots the compressor can easily be moved with a fork lift truck on building sites where it is impossible to use a towing truck. Wagon tow bar level device The tow bar levelling device is an ergonomic device making it easier for the operating personnel to couple the compressor to a towing vehicle.
  • Page 94 Instruction Manual Tie down loops To fasten the compressor to the vehicle it is transported with tie down loops are attached to the axle of the compressor. Refinary equipment Spark arrestor The certified spark arrestor is an addition to the exhaust that makes it possible to operate the compressor in hazardous environments like refineries where there is a possibility that...
  • Page 95 Instruction Manual Cold weather options Easy start and operation to -25°C The cold start option consists of larger batteries and a blow off valve to be able to start the engine at temperatures between -10°C (14°F) and -25°C (-13°F). Engine preheater The preheater is a device for preheating the cooling fluid before starting when operating at low temperatures.
  • Page 96 Instruction Manual Air quality Aftercooler package An integral aftercooler, with water separator, is available to reduce the outlet air temperature. Aftercooler package + fine filter For applications that demand quality air, a fine filtration unit can be specified with the aftercooler package.
  • Page 97 Instruction Manual Reheater package For quality dry air, a reheater can be fitted in combination with the aftercooler. This allows air quality to be delivered at ambient +60°C. Time saving Refuel pump The electric refuel pump makes it easy to refuel the compressor on site when refuelling from tanks or containers.
  • Page 98 Instruction Manual Wireless remote control The compressor controls can be handled remotely if required, thereby allowing the compressor to work at some distance from the actual drilling application. It’s easy-to-use in all kinds of applications and it saves fuel with an additional no-load function.
