    Description of the Machine 3.01 Mattei rotary compressors of the AC Series are the result of over 80 years of investments in research and development, to improve performance continuously, and at the same be environment-friendly. The modulation operating mode is not available for compressors of the AC 6000 series.
  • Page 21 Description of the Machine 3.02 All components are enclosed in a soundproofing canopy in sheet stell , epoxy powder painted and lined with deadening fire-resistant material. The canopy has a pre-filter to prevent intake of gross particles that might prematurely clog the radiators and air filter.
  • Page 22: Cooling Systems

    Description of the Machine 3.03 Minimum pressure and non return valve Compressed air is delivered by the compressor through a valve ensuring a minimum pressure inside the oil chamber, so as to gua- rantee smooth operation when the compressor is delivering air. This valve also prevents the compressed air in the system from returning to the compressor.
  • Page 23 Description of the Machine 3.04 Separator receiver The receiver is supplied with an INSTRUCTION, USE AND MAIN- TENANCE MANUAL which must be kept and consulted before use, and with a DECLARATION OF CONFORMITY clearly indicating the main technical data and the operating limits. The receiver is built to contain compressed air and oil;...
  • Page 24 Description of the Machine 3.05 MAESTRO is a programmable control unit which adapts compressor operation to the specific requirements of the air line it is con- nected to. It features various programming levels and performs operating and fault con- trols and analysis. Advanced programming and analysis levels are protected by digital codes to prevent unin- tentional access.
  • Page 25 ❏ Running compressor (optional) ❏ Compressor under load (optional) ❏ Compressor blocked (standard) Communication MAESTRO , connected to the Mattei supervision device (optional), allows for: Remote monitoring by web interface Alarm signaling by e-mail, fax or mobile phone. WARNING !!! The compressor has been designed to compress AIR ONLY.
  • Page 26 1 Electrical Diagram (inside the control board) Documents for the optional accessories CERTIFICATIONS Ing.Enea Mattei SpA has its company quality system certified according to standard UNI EN ISO 9001 by DNV while the final inspection procedures comply with standard ISO 1217 and have been certified by TÜV.
  • Page 27: Operating Mode

    Description of the Machine 3.08 Built-in Dryer (versions plus) Each AC unit (OPTIMA / MAXIMA) is supplied with a compressed air cooling radiator. Cooling produces condensation that is unload- ed from specific separators and drainpipes that can be applied on the front of the machine (see this section Optional Accessories).
  • Page 28 NOTE: The user can request Ing. ENEA MATTEI that the fault in the dryer corresponds to a machine BLOCK. NOTE: The design of the dryer prevents condensate from accumulating and ice from forming inside it.

  • Page 31 Transportation and handling 4.01 The whole area for the machine handling, including the space between the parking area for transport means and the machine installing area should be identified and inspected beforehand, to find any possible "DANGEROUS AREAS". Be careful when handling, lifting and transporting the machine, not to damage it and not to damage things or cause injuries to persons.
  • Page 32: Installation

    An air-cooled compressor,driven by an electrical motor,produces heat equal to about 85% the absorbed power. For the AC 6000 Series machines,having the cooling air outlet on the canopy top panel, the di- stance from the ceiling should not be lower than 1,5 meters.
  • Page 33 Installation 4.03 Electrical connection Only qualified personnel should make the electrical connections, in compliance with current regula- tions. WARNING !!! For safe maintenance of all com- pressor components, including the electric starter, the customer should install a mains isolator and a magneto-thermal switch of suitable size as near as possible to the machine.
  • Page 34 After air has been compressed, it is cooled in a specific radiator, which all versions of the Mattei compressors are supplied with. Cooling air produces condensate of a good quantity of the water it contains.
  • Page 35 Installation 4.05 Dimensions of compressed air distribution pipings We mention that the main causes for wastes are pipings with unsuitable diameter and losses due to an improper setting up of the equipment or deteriorated materials. The pipe diameter must be duly selected so as to minimize the pressure drop between the compressor or the storage receiver and the point of use, based on the machine features, like air delivery and working pressure.
  • Page 36 Installation 4.06 Heat Recovery As mentioned in the above section at Page 3.03, a fan produces an air flow that cools both the oil and the compressed air, heating up when it passes through the cooler. The recoverable heat rep- resents about 100% the installed power in the AC 6000 Series machines.
  • Page 37: Safety Devices

    The safety valve is set at 12 bar for L and H version of compressors and 15 bar for HH versions. Operating pressure check For compressors of the AC 6000 series the operating pressure is checked by MAESTRO The maximum operating pressure is set during final inspection at its optimal value and DOES NOT require any further adjustments.
  • Page 38 5.02 Commands and Control MAESTRO is a program- mable device to control the machine that can adapt its operation to the specific re- quirements of the network it is connected to. It has several programming levels, with special possibilities of control/analysis of operation and of failures.

  • Page 41 How to Use the Machine 6.02 Operation Modes To meet the users’ requirements, Mattei compressors have been designed to work in three main operat- ing modes: Continuous, Automatic and Modulation. (modulation not available for compressors of the AC 6000 series) The factory-preset mode is AUTOMATIC.
  • Page 42 In Mattei compressors, the maximum pressure at which the unit runs no-load can be set (by calibrating a valve). For values slightly below maximum, the suction valve is only “partially” closed by suitably modu- lating machine capacity to line requirements.
  • Page 43 Upon delivery, the compressor is protected by an alphanumerical code which must be provided by Mattei and entered the first time it is switched on. The compressor will not work if this code is not entered because, as soon as the compressor is powered, the screen shown appears with the cursor flashing in the top left-hand corner.
  • Page 44: Operational Failures

    6.05 How to Use the Machine Operational Failures Failures can be divided as follows:  Failures with an intervention signal (alarms)  Failures causing the immediate stop of the compressor (blocks). The card signals a failure by lighting of the reset button, together with a visual signal through icons and a sliding description.

  • Page 55: Maintenance - Oil Change

    7.09 Maintenance - Oil change Foreword As mentioned before, the oil performs many essential functions for compres- sor operation and, consequently, it is important to check its quantity and conditions at the suggested times. Please refer to the specific tables to choose the most suitable oil types for the different operating conditions.
  • Page 56 7.10 Maintenance - Oil change Use of Rotoroil lubricants It is recommended to use Mattei Rotoroil 8000lu- bricants. Successive oil changes can be made at the scheduled intervals. If the machine has already operated for a long period with other lubricants and there are traces of sludge or deposits, it is suggested to wash with Rotoroil 8000 F2/F4 for about 200 hours, so as to remove all residual impurities.
  • Page 57 8.01 Lubricants Lubricants are flammable products. Observe the indications given on the containers ! During the disposal of exhausted lubricants it is necessary to comply with following environment protec- tion rules: • Lubricants may contaminate water and soil ! Never pour lubricants on the ground, into water, or in the sewerage system. Any infringement of these rules can be legally prosecuted! When handling lubricants keep an oil ag- glomerative base near the working area.
  • Page 58: Measuring Unit

    When the warranty period is over, during which the use of Mattei Rotoroil lubricant is compulsory, the user can decide to use the oil he believes most suitable or the available one, provided it is suitable for rotary vane compressors.
