    INTRODUCTION The PAS:MAC 1000 portable compressor set is designed to deliver breathing quality air suitable for one man wearing air-fed respiratory protective equipment. A 230V/1.5kW electric motor driving a ‘V’ configuration twin cylinder, reciprocating compressor, provides air which, after processing, is purified to breathing quality conforming to EN 12021 (within certain environmental limitations).

    COMPRESSOR The compressor is a lubricated, twin cylinder, single stage reciprocating unit; air is drawn through an air filter mounted in between the cylinders. After compression the air passes through an unloader/check valve, an aftercooler and finally a pulsation vessel mounted under the unit before passing through a set of filters to provide air of breathable quality.
  • Page 6: Operating Instructions

    OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS SAFETY PRECAUTIONS In addition to normal safety rules which should be observed with stationary air compressors and equipment, the following safety directions and precautions are of special importance. When operating this unit, the operator must employ safe working practices and observe all related local work safety requirements and ordinances.

    Electrical cable visually inspect cable and plug for damage. Statutory insulation inspections may be required – see local rules. Note: Electric cable and plug can be stowed within the tool box. Ensure cable is run through the cut-out in the front of the box when in use.

    SERVICE BEFORE WORKING ON THE COMPRESSOR Potentially lethal voltages are used to power this machine. Disconnect power lead from mains supply prior to carrying out any service work. Do not undertake any work until the compressor and pulsation vessel have been relieved of all pressure. Wait until the compressor’s vent down cycle is complete.

    UNLOADER CHECK VALVE     OPERATION The Mark II maintains air vessel pressure levels between a “cut- out” pressure level and a “cut-in” pressure level. The difference between the two is known as the “differential”. The Mark II senses air pressure through a small orifice in the side of the OUT port of the valve.
  • Page 11 REGULATOR ADJUSTMENT Cut-out pressures are adjustable from 60 psi to 250 psi with the standard silver spring. The differential (difference between cut-out and cut-in pressures) is typically set at the factory at about 15% of the cut-out pressure. This is usually a suitable differential and will not normally need to be readjusted.
