GA Full-feature GA Full-feature are GA Pack compressors, additionally provided with an air dryer integrated in the bodywork. The dryer removes moisture from the compressed air by cooling the air to near freezing point and automatically draining the condensate. See section 1.5.

The oil system is provided with a by-pass valve (BV). When the oil temperature is below 65C for GA5-7 or below 40C for GA10, there is no oil flow to the oil cooler (Co). Air pressure forces the oil from air receiver/oil separator (AR) through oil filter (OF) to compressor element (E) and the lubrication points. Oil cooler (Co) is by-passed. At approx. 80C for GA5-7 or approx. 55C for GA10, all oil flows through the oil cooler.

The trap is equipped with a valve for automatic condensate draining during operation (Da-Fig. 1) and a manually operated valve for draining after stopping the compressor (Dm-Fig. 1).

1.2 Unloading/loading system


1.2.1 Unloading (Fig. 4b) If the air consumption is less than the air output of the compressor, the net pressure increases. When the net pressure reaches the unloading pressure, solenoid valve (Y1) is deenergized. The plunger of the valve returns by spring force: 1. The control pressure present in the chambers of loading plunger (LP) and unloading valve (UV) is vented to atmosphere via solenoid valve (Y1). 2. Loading plunger (LP) moves upwards and causes inlet valve (IV) to close the air inlet opening. 3. Unloading valve (UV) is opened by receiver pressure. The pressure from air receiver (AR) is released towards unloader (UA). 4. The pressure is stabilized at a low value. A small amount of air is kept drawn in through valve (BV1) and is blown to the unloader. Air output is stopped (0 %), the compressor runs unloaded.

0 = optional

S = standard

NA = not available

1.1.3 Air flow (Figs. 4) Air drawn through filter (AF) and open inlet valve (IV) into compressor element (E) is compressed. Compressed air and oil flow into air receiver/oil separator (AR). The air is discharged through outlet valve (AV) via minimum pressure valve (Vp), air cooler (Ca) and condensate trap (MT).

1.1.4 Oil system (Figs. 4) In air receiver/oil separator (AR), most of the oil is removed from the air/oil mixture centrifugally. The balance is removed by oil separator element (OS). The oil collects in the lower part of air receiver/oil separator (AR), which serves as oil tank.
1) If an oil/water separator is desired, an integrated separator must be applied. 2) Not for GA5. 3) Available as an option for GA Standard Pack.

K11

When the net pressure decreases to the loading pressure, solenoid valve (Y1) is energized. The plunger of solenoid valve (Y1) moves against spring force: 1. Control pressure is fed from air receiver (AR) via solenoid valve (Y1) to loading plunger (LP) and unloading valve (UV). 2. Unloading valve (UV) closes the air blow-off opening. Loading plunger (LP) moves downwards and causes inlet valve (IV) to open fully. Air output is resumed (100 %), the compressor runs loaded.

The regulator stops the compressor whenever possible to reduce the power consumption and restarts it automatically when the net pressure decreases. In case the expected stopping period is too short, the compressor is kept running to prevent too-short standstill periods. Warning A number of time-based automatic start/stop commands may be programmed. 1) Take into account that a start command will be executed (if programmed and activated), even after manually stopping the compressor.

Protecting the compressor Shut-down If the compressor element outlet temperature exceeds the programmed shut-down level, the compressor will be stopped. This will be indicated on display (4-Fig. 8). The compressor will also be stopped in case of overload of drive motor (M1). Shut-down warning If the compressor element outlet temperature exceeds a programmed value below the shut-down level, this will also be indicated to warn the operator before the shut-down level is reached. Monitoring components subject to service The regulator continuously monitors the oil, oil filter, oil separator and air filter. Service warning Each input is compared to programmed limits. If these limits are exceeded, a message will appear on display (4-Fig. 8) to warn the operator to replace the indicated component. Automatic restart after voltage failure For compressors leaving the factory, this function is made inactive. If desired, the function can be activated. Consult Atlas Copco. Warning If activated and provided the module was in the automatic operation mode, the compressor will automatically restart if the supply voltage to the module is restored within a programmed time period. The power recovery time (the period within which the voltage must be restored to have an automatic restart) can be set between 1 and 254 seconds or to symbol 00!. If the power recovery time is set to 00!, the compressor will always restart after a voltage failure, no matter how long it takes to restore the voltage.

1.5 Air dryer on GA Full-feature (Fig. 4a)


GA Full-feature are provided with a dryer which removes moisture from compressed air. 1.5.1 Compressed air circuit Compressed air enters heat exchanger (5) and is cooled by the outgoing, dried air. Moisture in the incoming air starts to condense. The air then flows through heat exchanger (11) where the refrigerant evaporates withdrawing heat from the air. This cools the air to close to the evaporating temperature of the refrigerant. More water in the air condenses. The cold air then flows through moisture trap (MT) which separates condensate from the air. The condensate is automatically drained through outlet (Da). The cold, dried air then flows through heat exchanger (5), where it is warmed up by the incoming air. 1.5.2 Refrigerant circuit Compressor (M1) delivers high-pressure refrigerant gas which flows through condenser (9) where the refrigerant condenses. The liquid refrigerant flows through filter (6) to capillary tube (7). The refrigerant leaves the capillary tube at evaporating pressure.

The refrigerant enters evaporator (11) where it withdraws heat from the compressed air by further evaporation. The heated refrigerant leaves the evaporator and is sucked in by compressor (M1). By-pass valve (10) regulates the freon flow. Fan (8) is switched on or off by switch (S3) depending on the loading degree of the refrigerant circuit.

Description/recommendation

It is recommended that the connection of the compressor air delivery pipe is made on top of the main air net pipe to minimize carry-over of possible remainder of condensate. 9 4 Ventilation: the inlet grids and ventilation fan should be installed in such a way that any recirculation of cooling air to the compressor or dryer is avoided. The air velocity to the grids must be limited to 5 m/s. The maximum allowable pressure drop over the cooling air ducts is 30 Pa. If exceeding this value, a fan is needed at the outlet of the ducts. Consult Atlas Copco. For alternatives 1 and 3, the required ventilation capacity to limit the compressor room temperature can be calculated as follows: Qv = 1.16 N / dT for GA Pack Qv = (1.16 N + 0.6) / dT for GA Full-feature Qv = required ventilation capacity in m3/s N = nominal motor power of compressor in kW dT = temperature increase in compressor room For alternatives 2 and 4: the fan capacity should match the compressor fan capacity at a pressure head equal to the pressure drop over the air ducts.

It is recommended to provide by-pass pipes and valves over the filters to isolate the filters during maintenance without disturbing the compressor. The air receiver (optional) should be installed in a frost-free room on a solid, level floor. For normal air consumption, the volume of the air net (receiver and piping) can be calculated as follows: 0.25 x Qc x P1 x To V =
_________________________________

fmax x dP x T1 V Qc P1 = volume of air net in l = free air delivery of compressor in l/s = compressor air inlet pressure in bar absolute fmax = cycle frequency = 1 cycle/30 s dP = Punload - Pload in bar T1 = compressor air inlet temperature in K To = air receiver temperature in K 10-Fig. 15b For GA Standard Pack, a condensate trap is available as option. By-pass system for compressors with dryer (optional): 10-Fig. 15a 11-Fig. 15a Dryer by-pass pipe. Condensate trap.

The drain pipes to the drain collector must not dip into the water of the drain collector. Atlas Copco has oil/water separators (type OSD) to separate the major part of oil from condensate to ensure that the condensate meets the requirements of the environmental codes. Position of the control panel. Position of the mains cable. Filter, type DD, for general purpose filtration (optional). The filter traps solid particles down to 1 micron with a max. oil carry-over of 0.5 mg/ m3. A high-efficiency filter, type PD (optional), may be installed downstream of a DD filter. This filter traps solid particles down to 0.01 micron with a max. oil carry-over of 0.01 mg/m3. If oil vapour and odours are undesirable, a filter of the QD type (optional) should be installed downstream of the PD filter.

5.4 Safety devices of dryer on GA Fullfeature


The regulating and safety devices are factory-adjusted to obtain optimum performance of the dryer. Do not alter the setting of any of the devices.

5.5 Load/unload pressure switch (PSR19-Fig. 19) on GA Standard Pack


The switch allows the operator to select the unloading pressure and the pressure difference between the unloading and loading pressures. The unloading and loading pressures are the opening and closing pressures of the air pressure switch. Adjustment can only be carried out when the pressure switch is pressurized. Remove blocking device (1) before adjusting knob (2). The unloading pressure is controlled by adjusting knob (2). Turn the knob clockwise to raise the unloading pressure, anticlockwise to lower it.
