2203M4JE-MY-iS2-N_2017.04. Chapter 1 Safety Chapter 1 Safety Strict Requirements and Prohibitions 1.1.1 Strict Requirements (Do’s) 1.1.1.1 Do’s on Operation Make sure to attach safety and protective devices to the package unit. The safety devices and protection systems must be regularly checked for their normal operation.
2203M4JE-MY-iS2-N_2017.04. Chapter 1 Safety 1.1.1.3 Do’s on Lockout/Tagout after Shutting Off the Power A lock-out/tag-out mechanism must be installed for the main circuit breakers that supply power to the motor and power to the control system. The lock-out/tag-out after power down is a very effective means to ensure the safety when two or more workers are working on the system at the same time, as it can prevent possible injury of workers that may be caused by accidental power-on of the driving source by one of the workers.
2203M4JE-MY-iS2-N_2017.04. Chapter 1 Safety 1.1.2 Prohibitions (Don’ts) Do not remove or relocate any safety device, including electrical interfaces. Do not disable any safety device by short-circuiting or bypassing without any permission. Do not leave this product unsafe and unattended, by removing a safety cover or some other measures.

Chapter 5 Maintenance and Inspection 5.3.3 Refrigerant Gas Treatment 5.3.3.1 Valves Used Before removing the compressor or when performing air tightness test or evacuation, refrigerant gas is recovered and charged. As the i-series compressor has a built-in check valve, care should be taken. Work procedures differ between the i125* and i160*.
2203M4JE-MY-iS2-N_2017.04. Chapter 5 Maintenance and Inspection 5.3.4 Removing Parts Connected to the Unit If refrigerant gas or a mixture of refrigerant and oil remains in the compressor, refrigerant gas may blow off when the closed circuit is opened. This may result in injury such as frostbite or loss of vision.
2203M4JE-MY-iS2-N_2017.04. Chapter 5 Maintenance and Inspection Disassembly and Inspection Be careful with handling of the parts during disassembly and inspection. Since the compressor rotates at a very high speed, even the slightest handling error could cause a situation that requires replacement of the rotor and all other important parts.

2203M4JE-MY-iS2-N_2017.04. Chapter 5 Maintenance and Inspection 5.4.5 Thrust Bearing Block The thrust bearings [38-1] [38-2] are face-to-face angular contact ball bearings. This bearing only receives thrust load and does not receive the radial load perpendicular to the shaft because there is a gap between the outer ring of the thrust bearing and the bearing head. Apart from receiving the thrust load, the bearing has the important role of securing the position of the gap between the rotor and the discharge side of the bearing head.
2203M4JE-MY-iS2-N_2017.04. Chapter 5 Maintenance and Inspection 5.4.6 Bearing Head Though the case dividing method differs between i125* and i160*, the work flow is the same. 5.4.6.1 Disassembly a) Attach lifting tools, remove all bolts [2-1] that hold the part to the main rotor casing, and separate the part from the main rotor casing.

2203M4JE-MY-iS2-N_2017.04. Chapter 5 Maintenance Reassembly When reassembling, ensure that the replaced O-rings are of the correct standard (size, material, use for fixed portion or sliding portion, etc.). Incorrect replacement can lead to defects such as oil leakage. Some gaskets are asymmetrical. In that case, ensure that the assembly direction is correct.

2203M4JE-MY-iS2-N_2017.04. Chapter 5 Maintenance a) The procedure for assembling this block is described in Figure 5-4. The important points are explained below. If there is a V-shaped mark for assembly on the outer side of the thrust bearing, assemble with the pointed end of the mark on the inner side of the machine, as there is a slight directional difference that affects end clearance adjustment.
2203M4JE-MY-iS2-N_2017.04. Chapter 5 Maintenance 5.5.6.1 End Clearance Measurement At this point (i.e., after the thrust bearing block has been fully assembled), measure the clearance between the bearing head end face and the rotor end face on the discharge side. This clearance is called as the end clearance.
2203M4JE-MY-iS2-N_2017.04. Chapter 5 Maintenance 5.5.6.2 End Clearance Adjustment (1) When end clearance is smaller than the specified value To deal with this, insert shim material (thrust adjustment liner) of required thickness (difference in thickness from the specified value) between the thrust bearing alignment spacer [42] and thrust bearing inner race.

2203M4JE-MY-iS2-N_2017.04. Chapter 5 Maintenance 5.5.9 Shaft seal Block The standard mechanical seal assemblies used in the current shaft seal of standard screw compressors are of the BBSE (balance bellows single) type. a) Before assembly, clean the portion where the mechanical seal will be installed. b) In particular, recheck immediately before assembly that the stepped portion where the axial seal will be mounted is free of damage.

2203M4JE-MY-iS2-N_2017.04. Chapter 5 Maintenance g) By using two seal collar set screws [111], tighten the seal collar against the countersunk holes in the rotor shaft. Tightening the seal collar at other places than the countersunk holes can cause damage to the rotor shaft which can lead to leakage. h) Attach the O-ring [103] for mating ring and mating ring [101] to seal cover [51].
2203M4JE-MY-iS2-N_2017.04. Chapter 5 Maintenance k) When the seal fastening margin is proper, push the seal cover firmly into the bearing cover. Since there is repulsion force of the seal bellows, keep it pushed firmly and tighten the two hexagon socket head cap screws (for tightening the seal cover) evenly at positions 180 degrees apart.

2203M4JE-MY-iS2-N_2017.04. Appendix 1: Basic Points of Design and Manufacturing for the Compressor Package This appendix 1 describes the basic points of design and manufacturing for the packaging work using i-series compressor. In what is described here, there are overlapping explanations in chapter 1 to chapter 4 of this manual, but please refer to it as explanation to supplement them.
2203M4JE-MY-iS2-N_2017.04. Basic Flow of the Oil Cooler The supply of oil to the compressor must be in the range of 30 °C to 60 °C. Therefore, a cooler for lubricating oil cooling is necessary after an oil separator. Figure app.1-2 is the reference flow of the water cooled oil cooler.
2203M4JE-MY-iS2-N_2017.04. Oil Temperature Control Generally, in order to keep the lubricating oil temperature in the oil separator, install the oil heater at the bottom of the oil separator. In the cold district, the viscosity of lubricating oil at the compressor start-up is decreased;...
2203M4JE-MY-iS2-N_2017.04. Oil Separator Oil separator has important two roles in the refrigeration system. One is to separate the lubricating oil from discharge gas of the compressor, and the other is to hold the oil. When you design a oil separator for the package unit using i-series compressor, take sufficient attention to the following points.
2203M4JE-MY-iS2-N_2017.04. Power Supply and Control Devices An example of a standard power control circuit diagram (star-delta starting) is shown in Figure app.1-8a and Figure app.1-8b. In the package unit using i-series compressor, you can choose a variety of motor starting method such as direct on-line starting, using a frequency inverter, star-delta starting, using a soft starter, etc.

2203M4JE-MY-iS2-N_2017.04. Appendix 2: Basic Points of Design and Manufacturing for the Compressors Multi- package Preface In previous Chapter Appendix 1 "Basic Points of Design and Manufacturing for the Compressor Package", we have introduced the basic packaging instructions using i-series compressor. Our i-series compressor models have achieved simplification of the package by adopting the fully differential pressure oil supply method that does not require the oil pump for lubrication of the compressor.
2203M4JE-MY-iS2-N_2017.04. 2-2-2 Oil Separator Similarly to the case of single package, the oil separator type can be selected according to the system and the application. When the common separator is used, it is necessary to consider the separator size and adding of secondary separator depending on the swept volume of the compressor and the target oil carry amount.
