  • Page 2: About These Instructions

    It must also be ensured, that personnel working in daily opera- tion with the compressor have access to important information such as safety and warning advice about the compressor. Such persons must read the safety advice and have understood it. Bock assumes no liability for any damage arising from non-compliance.

    1| Safety 1.1 Identification of safety instructions: DANGER Indicates a dangerous situation which, if not avoided, will cause immediate fatal or serious injury. WARNING Indicates a dangerous situation which, if not avoided, may cause fatal or serious injury. CAUTION Indicates a dangerous situation which, if not avoided, may cause fairly severe or minor injury.
  • Page 5: Safety Instructions

    Only the refrigerant specified in these instructions may be used. Any other use of the compressor is prohibited! The Bock refrigerating compressor named in the title is intended for installation in a machine (with- in the EU according to the EU Directives 2006/42/EC Machinery Directive, 2014/68/EU Pressure Equipment Directive).

  • Page 8: Areas Of Application

    See chapter 6.6. 3.3 Limits of application ATTENTION Compressor operation is possible within the operating limits. These can be found in Bock compressor selection tool (VAP) under vap.bock.de. Observe the information given there. - Max. permissible discharge end temperature: 140 °C - Permissible ambient temperature: (-20 °C) - (+100 °C)
  • Page 9: Compressor Assembly

    Fig. 4 Storage at (-40 °C) - (+100 °C), maximum permissible relative humidity 10 % - 95 %, no condensation. Fittings (e.g. pipe holders, additional units etc.) on the compressor are permissible only following consultation with Bock. Setup on an even surface or frame with sufficient load-bearing capacity. Use all 4 fastening points. Correct setup of the compressor and mounting of the belt drive are decisive for running comfort, operating safety and the service life of the compressor.
  • Page 10: V-Belt Drive

    4| Compressor assembly 4.3 V-belt drive ATTENTION Inappropriately designed belt drives, especially belt knocking (offsets, inclinations) or excessive tensioning forces can cause compressor damage! Make sure that the drive belt is designed correctly, e.g. by using t ensioners and selecting the belt profile and the belt length. During operation with capacity regulator (Accessories, Chap. 7), the changing load can cause increased running noises and belt drive vibrations.

    4| Compressor assembly 4.6 Pipe connections The pipe connections, if installed, have stepped internal diameters so that pipes with standard millimetre and inch dimensions can be used. The connection diameters of the shut-off valves are designed for maximum compressor output. The required pipe cross-section must be matched to the capacity.

    5| Commissioning 5.1 Preparations for start-up INFO To protect the compressor against inadmissible operating condi- tions, 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.

    5| Commissioning ATTENTION Avoid overfilling the system with refrigerant! To avoid shifts in concentration, zeotropic refrigerant blends must always be added to the refrigerating plant in liquid form. Do not pour liquid refrigerant through the suction line valve on the compressor. It is not permissible to mix additives with the oil and refrigerant. 5.6 Oil level check After starting, check the compressor's oil level. Drive motor in operating condition "High idle". Compressor run time min.
  • Page 16: Avoiding Liquid Shocks

    5| Commissioning 5.8 Avoiding liquid shocks ATTENTION Slugging can damage the compressor and cause refrigerant to leak. To avoid liquid shocks, the following points should be observed: The complete refrigeration plant must be correctly designed and executed. The capacities of all components must be compatible (particularly evaporator and expansion valve). Suction gas superheating at the evaporator output should be at least 7 – 10 K (check setting of the expansion valve).

    6| Maintenance Where requirements are higher during use (frequent operation at the limits of application, or in hotlands with over +40 °C ambient temperature, or in the case of deep freezing), the following requirements must be observed: • Initial oil change during the first maintenance of the vehicle (at the latest after one year) • Then an oil change after every 2,000 operating hours, at the latest however after two years. Also clean the oil filter. Preventive maintenance The above requirements for higher use applications also apply in the case of preventive maintenance. The shaft seal must also be changed after 3 years. Regular inspections (at least annually): Checks to be carried out on oil level in the oil sight glass, oil fill level of the shaft seal in the oil drain hose, absence of leaks in the compressor, running noise, vibrations, pressures, temperatures, and functioning of auxiliary devices such as the capacity control.
  • Page 18: Recommended Spare Parts/Accessories

    It is for this reason, that we only recommend the use of oil from Bock! Bock assumes no liability for any damage arising from alternative oil types.

    7| Accessories 7.1 Capacity regulation ATTENTION Capacity-regulated operation alters the gas speeds and pressure ratios of the refrigerating plant: Adjust the suction line routing and dimensioning accordingly, do not set the control intervals too close and do not let the system switch more than 12 times per hour (refriger- ating plant must have reached a state of equilibrium). Continuous operation in the control stage is not recommended as the gas velocity in the plant system under certain circumstances does not...
