General 1 General Application GHH RAND builds and delivers the CS104 screw compressor, the CS1200 LITE screw compressor kit and the CS1200 ICL screw compressor unit. Because of their oil‑free compression of atmospheric air and their power‑to‑weight ratio for installation on silo vehicles, the compressor unit is used to pneumatically convey bulk goods, such as flour, sugar, salt, animal feed, powdered chemicals, dry granulate, soda, cement, sand, lime, plaster, etc.
General Code key type designation Compressor stage type R = clockwise L = anti‑clockwise 1 = with oil cooler 2 = without oil cooler CS104 R 1 Technical data CS1200 compressor units Dimensions & weight CS1200 LITE CS1200 ICL Rotational speed range Width (approx.) 835 / 705 min.
General Operating the compressor at high altitudes If operating the compressor at high altitudes, make sure that, depending on the existing ambient pres‑ sure, the operating overpressure must be reduced in order to prevent temperature damage to the com‑ pressor. This should be carried out in accordance with the following table: Installation height h [m] 1000...
General 1.10 Screw compressor type plate The type plate is attached to the side of the screw compressor. It contains the following information: · Type · Serial number · Rotational speed range · max. volume flow · At max. operating pressure ·...
Safety 2 Safety General This operating manual contains basic instructions to be followed during operation and maintenance/repair. Therefore, this operating manual must be read by the responsible technical staff/operator prior to com‑ missioning and it must always be available at the place of use for the screw compressor. Authorized personnel, training and qualification Work carried out on the compressor, such as operation and maintenance/repair, must only be carried out by persons with the appropriate authorisation, training and qualifications, who are familiar with the...
Safety Unauthorised conversions and spare parts Conversions and modifications to the screw compressor and screw compressor unit are not permitted. Damage to the seal will void any warranty claims. Original replacement parts and accessories that are authorized by the manufacturer represent safety factors. The use of non‑original or unauthorised re‑ placement and accessory parts may void the liability for resulting consequences.
Operation 3 Operation Safety during operation NOTE Also observe the safety instructions in Chapter 2 on page 12. DANGER RISK OF EXPLOSION! For the conveyance of combustible, dust‑like materials, the temperature of the compressed air at the measurement point directly before contact with the material to be conveyed may not exceed the maxi‑ mum value of 120 °C.
Operation Installation ‣ Park the vehicle in as level a position as possible. ‣ Observe the permitted inclination. Permitted inclination NOTICE INSUFFICIENT LUBRICATION! Excessive inclination results in irregular level of lubricant in the housing. ‣ Observe the maximum permitted inclination of the screw compressor during operation: ·...
Operation Monitoring operation 3.5.1 CS104/external installation The manufacturer installs a gauge (measurement position in the following pipeline) pneumatic system to monitor the compression pressure. The system manufacturer or external installer must also install displays that monitor the intake negative pressure and the oil pressure of the compressor stage. For the operation and control of the operating displays, only the instructions from the manufacturer are applica‑...

Operation Resetting the maintenance indicator If the negative pressure has dropped to below the permitted limit (65 mbar, red area on the maintenance indicator), the maintenance indicator must be reset after rectification of the malfunction. ‣ Push the button (2) on the front of the maintenance indicator (1). Maintenance indicator variant 2 The negative pressure in the compressor is displayed on the maintenance indicator (2).
Operation CS1200 ICL Oil pressure gauge The oil pressure is displayed on the oil pressure gauge (1). The oil pressure may not drop below 0.3 bar. NOTICE LOW OIL PRESSURE! If the oil pressure is insufficient, significant tangi‑ ble damage can occur. ‣...
Operation Cooling fan speed selector switch The fan speed can be set with the selector switch (3): · Left pos. (5): “HOT” fan is switched of · Right pos. (4): “COOL” fan (automatic with temperature control) is switched on External oil cooler for compressor (optional) To ensure that the compressor has an optimum service life even under extreme conditions, an external oil cooler can be connected as an option.
Operation Switching off NOTICE RISK OF BLOWBACK OF MATERIAL! If the compressor is switched off if there is counter pressure, there is the risk of damage to the non - return flap due to blowback of material. ‣ Do not turn compressor off if there is counter pressure! ‣...
Maintenance/repair 4 Maintenance/repair Safety NOTE Also observe the safety instructions in Chapter 2 on page 12. WARNING COMPRESSED AIR IN THE SYSTEM! There is a risk of injury due to pressurized components and lines. ‣ All checks and maintenance tasks must only be performed with the compressor switched off and depressurised.
Maintenance/repair Maintenance Intervals All of the maintenance and repair tasks given on this page are described in detail in the following Chap- ter 4.4 on page 22. After the first 2 operating hours Section 4.4.1 Re‑tighten the fastening screws on the discharge silencer. Perform a visual inspection of the lines to/from the oil cooler and compressor to make 4.4.2 sure they do not leak.
Maintenance/repair ‣ Retighten fastening screws (3) between the holder (4) and discharge silencer (2). Tightening torque (M10 A2-70): 37 Nm ‣ Retighten fastening screws (5) between the holder (4) and compressor housing (6). Tightening torque (M12 A2-70): 65 Nm 4.4.2 Checking the oil lines and compressor for leaks ‣ Perform a visual inspection of the oil line to the oil cooler (1), the return line to the compressor (4), screw connections (3) and compressor hous‑...
Maintenance/repair 4.4.3 Cleaning and replacing the intake filter element For the maintenance or replacement of the intake filter of a compressor unit based on the CS104 com‑ pressor stage (third‑party manufacturer), only the instructions from the manufacturer are applicable. NOTE Intake filters from diverse manufacturers can be installed.
Maintenance/repair ‣ Press the dust release valve at the bottom of the air filter housing so that the collected dust/dirt falls out. ‣ Reassemble the parts in reverse order. 4.4.4 Checking the oil level ‣ Unscrew the plugs (1) from the compressor hous‑ ing and check whether the oil reaches the lower edge of the threaded holes (2) (see magnified view).
Maintenance/repair 4.4.5 Check the safety valve The safety valve is usually installed on the discharge silencer. NOTE The discharge silencers (1) supplied by GHH RAND have an integrated safety valve (2). ‣ In order to check the knurled nut (1), release the safety valve (2).
Maintenance/repair 4.4.6 Check the non-return flap For the maintenance or replacement of the non-return flap of a compressor unit based on the CS104 compressor stage (third‑party manufacturer), only the instructions from the manufacturer are applicable. NOTE Non-return flaps from diverse manufacturers can be installed. Also observe the instructions from the manufacturer.
