1| Safety Identification of safety instructions Indicates a dangerous situation which, if not avoided, will cause immediate fatal or serious injury. Indicates a dangerous situation which, if not avoided, may cause fatal or serious injury. Indicates a dangerous situation which, if not avoided, may cause fairly severe or minor injury.
These assembly instructions describe the standard version of the compressor named in the title manufactured by Bock. Bock refrigerating compressors are intended for installation in a ma- chine (within the EU according to the EU Directives 2006/42/EC Machinery Directive, 2014/68/ EU Pressure Equipment Directive, outside the EU according to the respective national regulations and guidelines).
2 | Product description 2.1 Short description • Semi-hermetic eight-cylinder reciprocating compressor with suction-gas cooled drive motor. • The stream of refrigerant sucked out of the evaporator flows over the motor and cools it intensively. In this way, the motor can be kept at a relatively low temperature level, particularly under high loads.
More informations about approved refrigerants on Bock compressor selection tool VAP (vap.bock.de). 3.2 Oil charge The compressors are filled at the factory with the following oil type: BOCK lub E55 For refilling, we recommend the above oil types. See also section 7.4.
3 | Areas of application Maximum admissible frequency: 60 Hz Maximum admissible operating pressure (LP/HP) LP = Low pressure 19/28 barg (276/406 psig) HP = High pressure 4 | Compressor assembly New compressors are factory-filled with inert gas. Leave this service charge in the compressor for as long as possible and pre- vent the ingress of air.
4 | Compressor assembly 4.3 Pipe connections Damage possible. Do not solder as long as the compressor is under pressure. Superheating can damage the valve. Remove the pipe supports therefore from the valve for soldering and accordingly cool the valve body during and after soldering. Only solder using inert gas to inhibit oxidation products (scale).
4 | Compressor assembly Solenoid valve dead Non-return valve open Fig. 6 Important: Starting unloader may only be employed during the starting phase. Check the solenoid valve and the non-return valve regularly for tightness. In addition, we recommend using a heat protection thermostat on the discharge side of the com- pressor.
4 | Compressor assembly 4.7 Operating the shut-off valves Before opening or closing the shut-off valve, release the valve spindle seal by approx. 1 / 4 of a turn counter-clockwise. After activating the shut-off valve, re-tighten the adjustable valve spindle seal clockwise. Release Tighten Valve spindle seal...
4 | Compressor assembly 4.9 Suction pipe filter and filter drier For systems with long pipes and higher degree of contamination, a filter on the suction-side is recommended. The filter has to be be renewed depending on the degree of contamination (reduced pressure loss).
5 | Electrical connection 5.3 Standard motor, design for direct or partial winding start Designation on the name plate Y/YY Compressors with this marking are suitable for direct or partial winding start. The motor winding is subdivided into two parts: Part winding 1 = 50 % and part winding 2 = 50 %.

5 | Electrical connection 5.11 Capacity regulator (accessories) A fuse (max. 3xlB in accordance with IEC 60127-2-1) corresponding to the rated current must be placed in front of every magnetic coil of the capacity regulator as short-circuit protection. The ra- ted voltage of the fuse must be equal to or greater than the rated voltage of the magnetic coil.
6 | Commissioning 6.1 Preparations for start-up To protect the compressor against inadmissible operating conditions, high pressure and low pressure pressostats are mandatory on the installation side. The compressor has undergone trials in the factory and all functions have been tested. There are therefore no special running-in instructions.
6 | Commissioning 6.5 Refrigerant charge Wear personal protective clothing such as goggles and protective gloves! Make sure that the suction and pressure line shut-off valves are open. With the compressor switched off, add the liquid refrigerant directly to the condenser or receiver, breaking the vacuum.
8 | Accessories 8.1 Capacity regulator If the capacity regulator is installed at the factory, the control component (pilot valve) is subsequently installed and connected by the customer. LR 1 LR 2 LR 3 Delivery condition 1 (from the factory): Fig.
Information about the use, operation, maintenance and servicing of the components is available in the printed literature or on the internet under vap.bock.de. 8.2 Oil separator Oil slugging can result in damage to the compressor.
8 | Accessories 8.3 Oil level regulator Oil level regulation systems have proven themselves with parallel circuits of several compressors. The connection "0" is provided for installing an oil level regulator (see dimensions drawing). All common mechanical oil level regulators from AC&R, ESK, Carly as well as the electronic oil level regulation system from AC&R, Teklab, OM3 TraxOil from Alco and ESK (only long version) can be connected directly without adapters (see fig.21).
