Page 103
Instruction book 10.1.3 Operation Description The compressor oil flow is controlled by two thermostatic valves (BV1 and BV2), ensuring reliable compressor operation and optimum energy recovery. Bypass valve (BV1) is integrated in the oil filter housing of the compressor and controls the oil flow through the main oil cooler (Co) of the compressor.
Page 104
Instruction book Variable speed driven (VSD) air-cooled compressors are equipped with a bypass valve BV2 that starts opening at 40 ˚C (104 ˚F) and which is completely open at 55 ˚C (131 ˚F). Variable speed driven (VSD) water-cooled compressors are equipped with a bypass valve BV2 that starts opening at 60 ˚C (140 ˚F) and which is completely open at 75 ˚C (167 ˚F).
Page 105
Instruction book BV1 must have a higher opening temperature (set point) than BV2 in order to prevent the heat from being dissipated in the compressor oil cooler (Co) rather than in the oil/water heat exchanger (HE) when using the compression heat as source for energy recovery. Thermostat BV1 starts to open at 60 ˚C (140 ˚F) and is completely open at 75 ˚C (167 ˚F).

Instruction book 10.6 Rotation direction indicator - Phase controller Description The phase controller enables permanent and easier verification of the rotation direction of the machine by means of a diode. This prevents any risk of physical damage by disabling the compressor start up in case of phase reversal or if a phase is disconnected and indicates a machine fault.
Instruction book Note: This option is always included with the dryer option. Overview The cooling of the compressed air allows the suction air to be dried, thus removing the humidity that collects in the bottom of the separator after being condensed in the aftercooler. The condensates are evacuated from the separator through a trap with a solenoid drip valve or a trap with level detector if this option is installed.
Instruction book Specific information frequency converter 11.1 Description CPVS machines are compliant with the Electromagnetic compatibility in industrial environments Standards 50081-2 and 50082-2 Standard equipment A electronic frequency adjusting device replaces the star-delta starter. A fuse holder section switch completes the compressor standard's safety devices. A protection foam to protect the frequency converter against dust contamination.

Instruction book The internal components and the plates (except the electrically insulated I/O terminals) are at the mains voltage when the inverter is connected to the mains. This voltage is extremely dangerous and can cause severe injuries or even death in case of involuntary contact. When the inverter is connected to the mains, the connection terminals U, V, W of the motor as well as +/- connectors of the braking resistors are under power even if the motor is not running.

Instruction book • If the mains pressure is stronger than the pressure set point, the motor will slow down causing the pressure to drop. The controller provides the compressor control functions and also controls the whole pressure feedback loop. It therefore includes a device to compare the indicated pressure with that from the pressure sensor, associated with a compensating device, Proportional integral control PI.

Instruction book towards the indicated pressure and, at the end of the minimum time delay (since reaching the no-load pressure), the drive allows the motor to restart. The pressure then rises again and the cycle starts over. To avoid pumping the system - frequent stop / start - drainage time may be increased. Energy saving For demand of compressed air within the machine's flow range - minimum flow to maximum flow, the frequency converter or the variable speed drive feed the motor in order to ensure that it turns at the speed...
