Description Air drawn through filter (AF) and open inlet valve (IV) of unloader is compressed in compressor element (E).

  • Page 20: Oil System

    Instruction book On Full-Feature compressors, the air flows through air dryer (DR) before it is discharged through outlet valve (AV). Also see section dryer. In all circumstances, minimum pressure valve (Vp) keeps the pressure in the separator tank (AR) above a minimum value, required for lubrication. An integrated check valve prevents the compressed air downstream the valve from being vented to atmosphere during unloaded operation.

  • Page 21: Cooling System

    Instruction book Description In air receiver/oil separator (AR), most of the oil is removed from the air/oil mixture by centrifugal action. The remaining oil is removed by oil separator (OS). The oil collects in the lower part of air receiver/oil separator (AR), which serves as an oil tank. The oil system is provided with a thermostatic bypass valve (BV).
  • Page 22 Instruction book Description The cooling system on air-cooled compressors comprises air cooler (Ca) and oil cooler (Co). The cooling air flow is generated by fan (FN).

The liquid refrigerant flows through liquid refrigerant dryer/filter (7) to capillary tube (8). The refrigerant leaves the capillary tube at about evaporating pressure. The refrigerant enters evaporator (2) where it withdraws heat from the compressed air by further evaporation at about constant pressure.

  • Page 93: Osci (Optional)

    Instruction book OSCi (optional) Introduction Compressed air produced by oil-injected compressors contains a small quantity of oil. During the cooling of the air in the aftercooler and in the refrigeration dryer (on compressors with built-in refrigeration dryer), oil-containing condensate is formed. The OSCi is a condensate treatment device, designed to separate most of this oil from the water and to sorb it in its replaceable filters, thus preventing contamination of the environment.

  • Page 94: Operation

    Instruction book Operation General Condensate flow scheme Condensate inlet Foam cover Oleophilic filter Service drains with valve Air injection connection OGC filter Activated carbon filter Condensate test outlet Condensate outlet The OSCi 3790 housing consists of 3 interconnected vessels. The oil-containing condensate is injected (1) in discontinuous bursts at a downward angle into the first vessel which acts as expansion chamber.
  • Page 95 Instruction book bag (6), filled with oleophilic granular clay (OGC). Through a connection (5) at the bottom of the second vessel, air is injected into the condensate. This airflow breaks stable emulsions by enhancing the sorption process of oil onto the OGC. The air supply also prevents the formation of certain anaerobic bacteria.
