SAFETY GENERAL SULLIVAN-PALATEK designs all its compressors so they can be operated safely despite the fact that operating a motor driven air compressor is inherently hazardous. Responsibility for continued safe operation rests with those who install, use and maintain the equipment. The precautions offered in this section will minimize the inherent hazards and reduce the likelihood of accidental damage or injuries.
SULLIVAN-PALATEK__________________________________ FIRES/EXPLOSIONS Clean up any spilled oil or oil leakage, and repair oil leaks as soon as they are discovered. Do not allow oil to accumulate on, in, or around acoustic noise material. Immediately replace any oil- soaked material after cleaning enclosure surface with nonflammable solvent. Do not operate compressor when there is a possibility of its ingesting flammable, toxic or explosive fumes, mists or particles.
__________________________________SULLIVAN-PALATEK ELECTRIC SHOCK Remove watches & rings, and keep all parts of the body, tools, or other conductive objects away from exposed live parts of the electrical system. Maintain dry footing, stand on insulating surface and do not contact any other portion of the compressor when making adjustments. Turn compressor off, open main disconnect and lock it out and tag it prior to opening the Starter Enclosure or when testing or replacing any electrical component such as: switches, wiring, terminals, transformer, starter, timer, coil, relay, contact, interlock, fuse, overload heater, etc.
1.11 HAZARD WARNING SIGNS SULLIVAN-PALATEK compressors are all equipped with brightly colored, weather-resistant, pictorial/verbal self-adhesive decals. These are designed to warn the operator against potential hazards in order to minimize risk of property damage, bodily injury or death. All operators must be aware of the Warning Signs and follow the instructions thereon.
SULLIVAN-PALATEK be the “lead” machine and the reciprocating the “lag” machine. That is, the SULLIVAN-PALATEK should be the first to start and the last to stop when being operated in the “automatic stop/start” mode, or the first to load and the last to unload, when in the “continuous run”...
MOTOR The electric motor used to power each SULLIVAN-PALATEK UD Series 125/250 horsepower compressor is a NEMA special inverter duty 3 phase motor, fitted with a C-face register at the compressor drive end to assure proper coupling alignment at all times. The main compressor motor is connectable for 460 volts.

__________________________________SULLIVAN-PALATEK VARIABLE SPEED OPERATION: The compressor will operate @ varying speeds depending on the signal from the line pressure transducer. This operating speed will vary from a maximum speed (set at the factory), and will try to maintain a constant line pressure (this is the control pressure setting on the T1 micro processor control). If air usage is very low, once the unload pressure setting is reached, the compressor will shut off.
SULLIVAN-PALATEK__________________________________ COMPRESSOR LUBRICATION/COOLING SYSTEM The cooling system consists of a fan, variable speed fan motor, finned-tube radiator-type fluid cooler, & thermovalve to accelerate warm-up, a full-flow filter, a drain valve and interconnecting tubing. Pressure in the oil separation tank utilizes air pressure over oil which causes the lubricoolant to flow from this region of relatively high pressure through the system to an area of lower pressure at the compressor unit.
__________________________________SULLIVAN-PALATEK COMPRESSOR DISCHARGE SYSTEM The compressor unit discharges a mixture of compressed air and lubricoolant directly into the oil separation tank where it accomplishes the following three functions: A) Primary separation - by change of direction and reduction of velocity, this allows the heavier droplets of lubricoolant to drop out of the air stream.
& cooler. VARIABLE FREQUENCY DRIVE AND ELECTRICAL PARTS The three-phase electric motor drive supplied with the SULLIVAN-PALATEK Plant Air Compressor has a NEMA-1 rated enclosure. A separate control box contains: the control power transformer, the 24 volt power supply for the micro processor control, the control pressure transducers, and fan motor disconnect fuses.
It is possible to utilize this heat for space heating, combustion air pre-heating, product drying, etc., --providing that no additional restriction is imposed upon the compressor cooling fan. Consult the factory for assistance if heat recovery is desired. MODEL 125UD 150UD 200UD 250UD MAX.

SULLIVAN-PALATEK__________________________________ DIRECTION OF ROTATION Once the control circuit has been checked, all piping installed, and compressors is filled with lubricoolant, push the ‘run’ key (green) and observe the direction of rotation. If rotation direction is incorrect, push the emergency stop button. Change two motor leads if rotation is incorrect. Incorrect rotation is only possible if the motor was disconnected.
SECTION 5 OPERATION INTRODUCTION Read this entire Operator’s Manual to be familiar with the SULLIVAN-PALATEK Plant Air Compressor, giving special attention to the SECTION 1 - SAFETY. INITIAL START 1. Open main disconnected to be sure there is no power to the compressor.
SULLIVAN-PALATEK__________________________________ NORMAL OPERATION 1. Open and lock out main power disconnect. 2. Check lubricoolant level. Refill if necessary. 3. Re-close disconnect switch. Micro processor will illuminate indicating compressor is ready to start. Fully open service air valve. 5. Start machine by pressing ‘run’ button on micro processor. Observe pressure and temperature.
__________________________________SULLIVAN-PALATEK SECTION 6 MAINTENANCE MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE DAILY Check lubricoolant level prior to start-up Check micro processor for any fault or alarm codes (see 5.2 instructions). Keeping a daily log of all operating parameters is recommended. FIRST 50 HOURS ...
SULLIVAN-PALATEK__________________________________ OIL FILTER Replace if differential pressure exceeds 15psid (fault, H6 signal is shown) or every 1000 Hrs. 1. Open and lock-out main disconnect. 2. Relieve all internal system pressure. 3. Using a strap wrench, remove spin-on oil filter element 4.
__________________________________SULLIVAN-PALATEK PRESSURE ADJUSTMENT To change the load and unload pressures, or to see the fault history press the + and - keys simultaneously. Use the + or - keys to set the code to 0009. Use the ENTER key to move forward a digit and to enter when complete.
SULLIVAN-PALATEK__________________________________ TROUBLESHOOTING SYMPTOM PROBABLE CAUSES AND REMEDIES A. MACHINE WILL NOT START 1. Main disconnect open. Close switch. 2. Line fuse(s) blown. Replace Fuse(s). 3. Control circuit breaker tripped. Reset circuit breaker. 4. Fault condition. See microprocessor for fault. Press reset to clear faults. SYMPTOM PROBABLE CAUSES AND REMEDIES B.
