General 1 General Application GHH RAND builds and supplies the CS85 screw compressor and the CS1050 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 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 commissioning and it must always be available at the place of use for the screw compressor. Authorised 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 authorised 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 CS85/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‑...
Page 17
Operation Maintenance indicator variant 1 The negative pressure in the compressor is displayed on the maintenance indicator (1). The negative pressure must not exceed 65 mbar (red area on the maintenance indicator). NOTICE PERMITTED NEGATIVE PRESSURE EXCEEDED! Excessive negative pressure (> 65 mbar) can result in overheating and damage to the compressor.
Operation 3.5.3 CS1050 IC Cooling fan speed selector switch Operation and fault monitoring Compressed air temperature indicator Negative pressure maintenance indicator Oil pressure display Once the compressor unit has started and the min. oil pressure has been reached, the control unit switches on automatically.
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). Operation and fault monitoring The operating display lights up green continuously when the compressor is operating.
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 23. After the first 2 operating hours Section 4.4.1 Readjust the tension of the V‑belts and quick‑release bushings of the V‑belt pulleys. 4.4.2 Re‑tighten the fastening screws on the discharge silencer.
Maintenance/repair Maintenance work 4.4.1 Readjusting the tension of the V-belts and quick-release bushings of the V-belt pulleys NOTE For the maintenance of the belt drive of a compressor unit based on the CS85 compressor stage (third‑party manufacturer), only the instructions from the manufacturer are applicable. The following applies to the CS1050 unit: NOTICE ELONGATED V-BELT!

Maintenance/repair 4.4.4 Cleaning and replacing the intake filter element For the maintenance or replacement of the intake filter of a compressor unit based on the CS85 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 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 CS85 com‑ pressor 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.
Maintenance/repair 4.4.8 Oil change and cleaning the oil intake strainer CAUTION ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION THROUGH OIL! Very small quantities of oil are sufficient to make significant amounts of potable water unusable. ‣ During the oil change, make sure that no oil is released into the environment. ‣...
