ATTENTION Indicates a situation which, if not avoided, may cause property damage INFO Important information or tips on simplifying work 1.2 Qualifications required of personnel WARNING Inadequately qualified personnel poses the risk of accidents, the consequence being serious or fatal injury. Work on compressors must therefore only be performed by personnel with the qualifications listed below: •...
These assembly instructions describe the standard version of the compressors named in the title manufactured by GEA. GEA refrigerating compressors are intended for installing in a machine (within the EU according to the EU Directives 2006/42/EC Machinery Directive, 97/23/EC Pressure Equipment Directive and 2006/95/EC – Low Voltage Directive).

4 | Compressor assembly INFO New 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. Immediately after coolingtechnical connection of the compressor of shutoff devices in suction-, discharge-, oil return line etc. close and compressors evacuate. Check the compressor for transport damage before starting any work.
4| Compressor assembly 4.3 Connecting the pipelines - solder system ATTENTION Damage possible. Superheating can damage the valve. Remove the pipe supports therefore from the valve for soldering and accordingly cool the valve body during and after soldering. Only solder using inert gas to inhibit oxidation products (scale). Material soldering / welding connection: S235 (JRG2C) The pipe connections have graduated inside diameters so that pipes with standart 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 hermetically sealed parts. Lay pipes correctly. Suitable vibration compensators must be provided to prevent pipes being cracked and broken by severe vibrations.
4 | Compressor assembly 4.8 Laying suction and pressure lines ATTENTION Property damage possible. Improperly installed pipes can cause cracks and tears which can result in a loss of refrigerant. INFO Proper layout of the suction and pressure lines directly after the compressor is integral to the smooth running and vibration behaviour of the system.

The connection which cannot be shut off is intended for safety devices.
5| Electrical connection Electrical connection DANGER Risk of electric shock! High voltage! 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 5.2 Standard motor, designed for direct or part winding start Designation on the name plate Sticker on the terminal box Y/YY Compressors marked in this way are suitable for direct or part winding start. The motor winding is divided into two parts: part winding 1 = 70% and part winding 2 = 30%. This winding devision redu- ces the start-up current during a part winding start to approx.

5| Electrical connection In the factory, the motor is switched for direct starting (YY). For part winding start (Y/YY), remove the bridges and connect the motor feed cable according to the circuit diagram: 400 V Direct start YY Part winding start Y/YY ATTENTION Property damage possible.

5 | Electrical connection 5.6 Electronic trigger unit MP10 The compressor motor is fitted with cold conductor temperature sensors (PTC) connected to the elec- tronic trigger unit MP10 in the terminal box. Readiness to operate is signalled by the H3 LED (green) after the power supply is applied. In the case of excess temperature in the motor winding, the unit switches off the compressor and the H1 LED lights red.

6| Commissioning 6.1 Preparations for start-up INFO In order to protect the compressor against inadmissible opera- ting conditions, high-pressure and low-pressure pressostats controls 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.
6| Commissioning 6.4 Evacuation ATTENTION Do not start the compressor if it is under vacuum. Do not apply any voltage - even for test purposes (must only be operated with refrigerant). Under vacuum, the spark-over and creepage current distances of the terminal board connection bolts shorten;...
6 | Commissioning 6.6 Start-up WARNING Ensure that both shut-off valves are open before starting the compressor! Check that the safety and protection devices (pressure switch, motor protection, electrical contact protection measures, etc.) are functioning properly. Switch on the compressor and let it run for at least 10 minutes. The machine should reach a state of equilibrium.
6 | Commissioning 6.8 Decompression valves ATTENTION The compressor is fitted with two decompression valves. One valve each on the suction and discharge side. If excessive pressures are reached, the valves open and prevent further pressure increase. Thereby CO is blown off to the ambient! In the event that a pressure relief valve activates repeatedly, check valve and replace if necessary as during blow-off extreme condi- tions can occure, which may result in a permanent leak. Always check system for refrigerant loss after activation of pressure relief valve! The decompression valves do not replace any pressure switches...
7 | Maintenance 6.9 Avoid slugging ATTENTION Slugging can result in damage to the compressor and cause refrigerant to leak. To prevent slugging: The complete refrigeration plant must be properly designed. All components must be compatibly rated with each other with regard to output (particularly the evaporator and expansion valves).
