These assembly instructions describe the standard version of the compressor named in the title manufactured by Bock. Bock refrigerating compressors are intended for installation in a machine (within the EU according to the EU Directives 2006/42/EC Machinery Directive and 2014/68/EU Pres- sure Equipment Directive).
Fig. 4 3.3 Operating limits ATTENTION! Compressor operation is possible within the operating limits. These can be found in Bock compressor selection tool (VAP) under vap.bock.de. Observe the information given there. - Permissible ambient temperature (-20°C) - (+60°C) - Max. permissible discharge end temperature: 140°C - M ax. permissible switching frequency: 8x /h - A minimum running time of 3 min.

3 | Areas of application ATTENTION! For operation with capacity regulator: - Continuous operation, when the capacity regulator is activated, is not permissible and can cause damage to the compressor. - The suction gas superheat temperature may need to be reduced or set individually when operating near to the threshold. - When the capacity regulator is activated, the gas velocity in the system can not under certain circumstances ensure that sufficient oil is transported back to the compressor.
4 | Compressor assembly INFO New compressors are factory-filled with inert gas. Leave this ser- vice 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 Storage and transport Storage at (-30°C) - (+70°C), maximum permissible relative humidity 10% - 95%, no condensation Do not store in a corrosive, dusty, vaporous atmosphere or in a com- bustible environment.
4.3 Maximum permissible inclination ATTENTION! Poor lubrication can damage the compressor. Respect the stated values. max. 30°, max. 2 minutes max. 15°, GEA Bock GmbH 72636 Frickenhausen, Germany continuous operation Fig. 10 4.4 Pipe connections The discharge and suction line valves have stepped internal diameters so that pipes with standard millimetre and inch dimensions can be used.
4 | Compressor assembly 4.5 Pipes Pipes and system components must be clean and dry inside and free of scale, swarf and layers of rust and phosphate. Only use air-tight parts. Lay pipes correctly. Suitable vibration compensators must be provided to prevent pipes being cracked and broken by severe vibrations.

5| Electrical connection Electrical connection DANGER! H igh voltage! Risk of electric shock! Only carry out work when the electrical system is disconnected from the power supply! ATTENTION! When attaching accessories with an electrical cable, a minimum bending radius of 3 x the cable diameter must be maintained for laying the cable. INFO! Connect the compressor motor in accordance with the circuit diagram (see inside of terminal box).

5| Electrical connection 5.4 Electronic trigger unit INT69 G The compressor motor is fitted with cold conductor temperature sensors (PTC) connected to the electronic trigger unit INT69 G in the terminal box. In case of excess temperature in the motor winding, the INT69 G deactivates the motor contactor.

6| Commissioning 6.1 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! 6.2 Pressure strength test The compressor has been tested in the factory for pressure integrity.
6 | Commissioning 6.5 Refrigerant charge CAUTION! Wear personal protective clothing such as goggles and protective gloves! 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.
Annual checks: Oil level, tightness, running noise, pressures, temperatures, function of auxiliary devices such as a oil sump heater, pressure switch. 7.3 Spare parts recommendation/ accessories Available spare parts and accessories can be found on our compressor selection tool under vap.bock.de as well as at bockshop.bock.de. Only use genuine Bock spare parts!
