Wearing goggles is indispensable to protect eyes from foreign bodies that may be swirled around by
the air jet.
The compressor was developed exclusively for the generation of compressed air and must
therefore not be used for any type of other gas.
The compressed air generated by the machine must not be used for breathing purpo-
ses, for pharmaceutical or sanitary purposes or for production plant, in which the air
gets into direct contact with foodstuffs, unless the air is additionally and adequately
treated.
The air aspired by the compressor must be completely free from dust, vapours of any nature, explosi-
ve or inflammable gases, solvents or sprayed lacquers and poisonous smoke of whatever nature.
Compressed air may only be used for various intended purposes (inflating, pneumatic tools, painting
work, washing with cleaning agents on a watery basis only, etc.) when the standards provided for the
individual applications are known and observed.
Switch the machine not on before having made sure that all protective guards are properly fit and that
nobody can be hit directly or indirectly by air jets, which may escape from pressurised lines without
prior warning.
It must be noted that the machine is completely automated and, depending on the settings and re-
quirements of the operator, performs various working cycles independently.
When the machine is put out of operation after a normal stoppage, it is advisable to disconnect the
voltage on the main control panel.
10 A change in the intended purpose of the machine is to be regarded as improper use: The manufactu-
rer will not be liable for any resulting personal injury or damage to property.
Before any work is carried out or the protective guards are removed, the power sup-
ply of the machine must be disconnected, the pneumatic system depressurised and
the machine cooled down.
After having disconnected the supply voltage, secure the master switch in order to
prevent undesirable restarting while work is carried out on the compressor. Moreover,
take care that the shut-off valve between the compressor and the distributing line is
closed.
The machine can only be regarded as depressurised when the MPI pressure gauge
inside the machine indicates a pressure equal to zero.
It is not permitted to make any changes to the electrical, pneumatic or oil-dynamic circuits within the
machine and/or to the settings. In particular the peak values of the working pressure and the settings
of any valves on the machine, especially those of the safety valves, must in no case be changed.
The individual components must never be cleaned with solvents, inflammable or poisonous fluids.
Use only alkali cleaning agents - but never for the motor or electrical and electronic components.
Never carry out any welding or mechanical work on tanks: In the case of damage or corrosion, tanks
must always be replaced, since they are subject to specific safety regulations.
At the end of any work, re-fit all protective equipment and guards and take the same precautions as
are required for initial commissioning.
Please remember that waste oil, condensation water and all filters must be disposed
of in accordance with local regulations, since these substances are harmful to the
environment.

Thorough and regular maintenance contributes to maintaining the efficiency of the machine and to the
safety of operators.
6 Transport and installation
Instructions for transport 6.1
For transporting the compressor we re-
commend the use of a forklift truck, with
the forks having to be inserted between the
supporting feed of the machine base frame
(Fig. 27).
12
The machines are prepared for direct installation and need no foundations. Erect the compressor hori-
zontally at a stable position, with the weight having to be distributed evenly on the supports.
6 Transport and installation
The ambient temperature conditions that are listed in the following represent operating limits of the
compressor:
In the case of special ambient conditions, please consult the technical department of the manufactu-
rer.
Outdoor installation
600
Fig. 29
Indoor installation
The machine is not suitable for operation in environments that are classified as „po-
tentially explosive“.
13
The air aspired by the compressor must be completely free from dust, vapours of any
kind, explosive or inflammable gases, solvents or sprayed lacquers and poisonous
smoke of whatever kind. In the case of critical environments (presence of ceramic,
marble, cement dust, etc.), replace filters more frequently and place special attention
to the air filter.
6 Transport and installation
The size of the installation room and ven-
ting facilities must allow that the ambient
temperature can be maintained during
normal operating conditions.
In any case, backpressure that might occur as a result of the installation of warm air ducts
must not exceed 5-6 mm of the water column, measured at the warm air outlet of the compres-
sor.
As a guideline, a cross-section of the air duct may be assumed that corresponds to the outlet grid for
warm air on the compressor.
If the necessary minimum temperature cannot be guaranteed, heat the surroundings.
Fig. 31
6 Transport and installation
In no case may the compressor be in-
stalled in a niche that will not guarantee
sufficient venting; the warm airflow must
not be hindered and no re-flowing may
occur (Fig. 32).
Fig. 32
Especially hoses can cause severe damage due to uncontrolled movements, if they are not firmly
connected. Before pressurising hoses, make sure that the ends are firmly anchored.
The condensation water drain must be connected via a suitable line to a collecting system, which
complies with local regulations with regard to the disposal of environmentally harmful substances.
• For the installation, all requirements specified in chapters 5 and 6 must be met.
• All the materials and devices used for packing the machine must be stowed away
• The compressor must be connected to the air supply system as described in chapters 6.2 and 6.3
• Check the oil level in the tank: For more details, see chapter 9.5. In the case of a low oil level,
top up with lubricating oil with the correct properties.
• Compare the data on the nameplate of the compressor with those of the existing electrical system
for compliance; a difference in voltage of +/-10 % from the nominal intensity is permitted.
• Connect the machine to the electrical system in accordance with the information given in section 6.4.

5. Press INFO key.
The Air Control 1 now shows the cut-off pressure. The compressor
changes over to the off-load mode as soon as the mains pressure rises
above this value. Possible adjustment range: 3.5 to maximum pressure
of the compressor.
0: Automatic
The symbol „Automatic“ is shown on the display.
The motor starts up and the compressor compresses air (= on-load
operation) as soon as the mains pressure falls below the cut-in pressure.
The compressor changes over to the off-load mode (motor running, but
compressor does not compress air) as soon as the mains pressure rises
above the cut-off pressure. The off-load time starts to elapse as the off-
load phase is entered (for the parameterisation, see code 51, chapter
7.2.3.4.9). When the off-load time has elapsed, the motor stops.
1: On-load/off-load
The symbol „Automatic“ is not shown on the display.
In contrast to automatic operation, the motor never stops. The compres-
sor compresses air as soon as the mains pressure falls below the cut-in
pressure. The compressor changes over to the off-load mode (motor
running, but compressor does not compress air) as soon as the mains
pressure rises above the cut-off pressure.
2: Automatic optional
The display shows the symbol „Automatic“ and an additional dot in front
of the temperature value.
Similar to the automatic mode. However, in this mode, it is possible to
determine how often the motor stops. To this end, your are prompted
to set the parameters „maximum pressure drop“ (input range 0.0 to
9.9 bar) and „maximum no. of cycles“ (input range 1 to 55 cycles/
hour).

BLS-OK 0: Local operation
The generation of compressed air can only be switched on and off on
the operating/display panel of Air Control 1.
1: Remote control
The generation of compressed air can only be switched off via a posi-
tive edge (24 VDC) at terminal 23 and by means of a low level (0 V) at
terminal 23 or by pressing key (0). This functionality is signalled on the
display of Air Control 1 by the flashing text „Remote“. When the (0) key
is operated locally on the compressor, the compressor shuts down after
45 seconds and can, for safety reasons, only be restarted by remote
control after the (I) key was operated locally (acknowledgement). This
is also valid for a start by means of PLANT CONTROL V/T.
2: BLS-OK
The input at terminal 23 is used for signalling an external control‘s rea-
diness for operation. Only when a high level (24 VDC) is present can
the external control switch between on-load and off-load operation (see
code 18, value 1, chapter 7.2.4.4.7). While the low level is present, BLS
operation is automatically switched off and the internal pressure sensor
used.

Before starting any maintenance work, please read chapter 5 attentively, which deals
with the safety regulations for workers. It is indispensable to strictly observe these
regulations for all kinds of maintenance work.
The air aspired through filter FA is directed to the pump group and mixes with the injected oil. It is gra-
dually compressed and pressed into the separator vessel, where the oil is separated for the first time
under gravity. This oil settles at the bottom.
The air, which is still mixed with small oil droplets, flows through oil separator filter FD as a result of
the specific design of the vessel. Due to the coalescence effect, the oil drops combine and settle at
the bottom of the filter, from where they are fed back to the pump group through a line.
The cleaned air is directed to check and pressure reducing valve VT, which opens only when the limit
value of approx. 4 bar is exceeded, thus guaranteeing the correct lubrication of the system under all
34 operating conditions.
The oil settled at the bottom of tank SS is fed by pressure to oil cooler RO, where it is cooled down. If
the oil temperature falls below the value set on thermostat valve VT, the flow through the oil cooler is
by-passed and the oil flows through filter FO back to the injection point in the pump group. Temperatu-
re sensor STO, which is integrated in the outlet and connected to a microprocessor, allows continuous
temperature monitoring of the pump group.
The control of the delivery volume differs for machines with fixed speed and those with variable
speed. On compressors with fixed speed, the piston of the inlet valve closes when the nominal opera-
ting pressure is reached. The internal pressure in the tank is reduced to a value of approx. 2 bar.
This value is maintained by a minimum amount of air aspired by the inlet valve, which ensures that
the pressure required for correct lubrication of the system is maintained. For this reason, the machine
can continue to run in the off-load mode with low energy consumption.
After a pre-determined operating time in the off-load mode, the machine comes to a standstill and is
ready to restart automatically as soon as the pressure falls below the minimum limit value.
