attention :
Never mix Greases of different brands or types. (P/N : 2901 0338 03 Roto glide amber for 400g cartridges) Stop the compressor before regreasing, and fill up to the unload running.

Attention :
When machine Stop more than 2 weeks, you have to turn the Air compressor for 2 ~3 minutes a week by hand or unloading condition.

HP Element

Air Inlet valve view


Purpose : Used to load and unload
By pass valve Muffler

compressor by opening and closing a Plate valve located at the inlet to the LP element. By-pass to adjust the IC pressure at unload

Description 1.
Sol valve

1) No load : Inlet valve disc :100% closed. To protect element rotor, supply the air of about 12 ~15% through by-pass line of inlet valve. At this time, Compressed air between check valve and Unload line is blown off through muffler(silencer) (HP inlet pressure -0.6 ~ -0.7 bar)

Description 2.
1) Full load : Atmospheric pressure is allowed through solenoid valve to chamber of unloader. As this pressure is higher than the pressure in chamber, full load/no-load valve starts opening. 2) Intercooler pressure is building up causing diaphragm to switch to the right. As the pressure difference between chambers increases, plunger moves further against the spring force until full-load/no-load valve is fully open and unloading valve closed.

pressure while loaded. While unloaded raises intercooler pressure to about 0.2bar that is blown-off.

Cooler view
Description :
-. Cooler is manufactured the aluminum pre cooler Compressed air in the tubes Cooling air around the tubes Inter & after cooler Fins on both sides - Cross flow of cooling air & compressed air. cooling air is supplied from cooling fan

Attention:
-. Cooling efficiency is swayed room temperature. because Compressor rooms temperature control below 40 and have to prevent contamination of cooler from dust.

10

Electronic Water drain (EWD)


Purpose :
To discharge the condensate water in the moisture trap. Two condensate traps are installed: intercooler & aftercooler

Description:

The condensate enters the EWD via inlet(1) and accumulates in collector(6). A capacitive sensor(5) continuously measures the liquid level. On the EWD330, pilot valve(3) is activated as soon as the collector is filled up to a certain level. Diaphragm(4) opens outlet(8), discharging the condensate. When the collector has been emptied, the outlet closes quickly without wasting compressed air. When the controller registers a malfunction, the red alarm LED on the control panel of the EWD starts flashing, a warning appears on the display of the regulator and the electronic drain valve will automatically change to the alarm mode, opening and closing the valve according to a sequence shown above. If the fault is not remedied automatically, maintenance is required. Function test. (Checking the alarm signal) 1) Press and hold the test button for at least 1 minute. 2) Check that the alarm LED flashes 3) Check that a warning is generated on the display of the regulator 4) Release the test button

Gear box & oil pump view


Gear boxs component :
-. Connection between Drive motor & Element. -. Vibration Prevention by Vibration damper -. Oil pumping & supply line inclusion -. Body with Oil sump tank

Oil pump (Rotaty Pump type) description :


Driven by the Main Shaft in draws oil from the sump and Pump it into the oil cooler at between 1.8 ~ 3.0bar. Oil is circulated by pump from the sump of the gear casing through cooler. The oil flows through the cooling jackets of the compressor elements. The oil passes through oil filters towards the dearings and timing gears. Valve opens if the oil pressure should rise above a given value.

Gearcase breather system


Purpose :
-. To create slight vacuum in the gearbox. -. To remove oil and oil fumes

Description :

Attention :
you have to check the Breather system at every day.
