1| Safety Identification of safety instructions Indicates a dangerous situation which, if not avoided, will cause immediate fatal or serious injury. Indicates a dangerous situation which, if not avoided, may cause fatal or serious injury. Indicates a dangerous situation which, if not avoided, may cause fairly severe or minor injury.
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 ma- chine (within the EU according to the EU Directives 2006/42/EC Machinery Directive, 2014/68/ EU Pressure Equipment Directive, outside the EU according to the respective national regulations and guidelines).
2| Product description 2.1 Short description • UL-HGX44e: Semi-hermetic four-cylinder reciprocating compressor with suction-gas cooled drive motor. • UL-HGX56e: Semi-hermetic six-cylinder reciprocating compressor with suction-gas cooled drive motor. • Preferred application range: normal refrigerating and air-conditioning. • The stream of refrigerant sucked out of the evaporator flows over the motor and cools it intensively.
More informations about approved refrigerants on Bock compressor selection tool VAP (vap.bock.de). 3.2 Oil charge The compressors are filled at the factory with the following oil type: BOCK lub E55 For refilling, we recommend the above oil types. Alternatives: see chapter 7.4 The oil level must be in the Max.
3 | Areas of application 3.3 Limits of application 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 (-4°F...140°F) - Max.
4 | Compressor assembly 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), (-22 °F) - (158 °F), maximum permis- sible relative humidity 10% - 95%, no condensation Do not store in a corrosive, dusty, vaporous atmosphere or in a com- bustible environment.
4 | Compressor assembly 4.3 Pipe connections Damage possible. Do not solder as long as the compressor is under pressure. 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).
4 | Compressor assembly A rule of thumb: Always lay the first pipe section starting from the shut-off valve downwards and parallel to the drive shaft. Rigid As short as fixed point possible Fig. 6 a) For HG44e a intermediate flange (height 27 mm) is optional available, Art-Nr.

5 | Electrical connection 5.1 General safety Risk of electric shock! High voltage! Only carry out work when the electrical system is disconnected from the power supply! When attaching accessories with an electrical cable, a minimum bending radius of 3 x the cable diameter must be maintained for laying the cable.

6 | Commissioning 6.1 Preparations for start-up 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.
6 | Commissioning 6.5 Refrigerant charge Wear personal protective clothing such as goggles and protective gloves! Make sure that the suction and pressure line shut-off valves are open. With the compressor switched off, add the liquid refrigerant directly to the condenser or receiver, breaking the vacuum.
Annual checks: Oil level, leak tightness, running noises, pressures, temperatures, function of auxiliary devices such as 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!
