1| Safety 1.1 Identification of safety instructions: DANGER Indicates a dangerous situation which, if not avoided, will cause immediate fatal or serious injury. WARNING Indicates a dangerous situation which, if not avoided, may cause fatal or serious injury. CAUTION Indicates a dangerous situation which, if not avoided, may cause fairly severe or minor injury.
The compressor may not be used in potentially explosive environments! These assembly instructions describe the standard version of the compressor named in the title man- ufactured by GEA. GEA refrigerating compressors are intended for installation 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. 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| Compressor assembly The pipe connections have graduated inside diameters so that pipes with standart millimetre and inch dimensions can be used. The connection diameters of the shut-off valves are rated for maximum compressor output. The actual required pipe cross section must be matched to the output. The same applies for non-return valves. Fig.
4| Compressor assembly 4.6 Operating the shut-off valves Before opening or closing the shut-off valve, release the valve spindle seal by approx. ¼ of a turn counter-clockwise. After activating the shut-off valve, re-tighten the adjustable valve spindle seal clockwise. Tighten Release Valve spindle seal Fig.
5| 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.

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 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 CAUTION 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. 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.
