components on systems and units for generating compressed air.
GLIS
Aerzener VMX screw compressors are suitable for conveying and compressing air that
ENGL
is free of hazardous substances.
EN
The compressor must be operated within the technical performance limits.
For further information, please refer to the data table in the Appendix.
Any failure to observe this data constitutes improper use, risks jeopardising the ma-
chine‘s operational safety/reliability and places the operating personnel in danger. This
can result in serious damage to the machine and personal injury.
The manufacturer can assume no liability for any resulting damage or injury. The risk
is borne by the operator alone.
As far as the pressurised components of the units are concerned, the latest country-
specific rules and standards must be observed in respect of their manufacture and
operation.
Non-observance of the safety information shall absolve Aerzener Maschinenfabrik of

its warranty obligations and its liability to pay damages or compensation as a result of
any consequential damage. The same shall apply to defects that can be traced back
to recommended inspections not being performed correctly or on time.
Ensuring appropriate use of the equipment also entails strict adherence to the manu-
facturer‘s assembly, operating, maintenance and servicing instructions.
The maintenance intervals according to these operating instructions must be followed

and carried out properly. Complying with the maintenance specifications will ensure
that the machine retains its value and will also promote operational reliability.

2 Construction, function
VMX compressor:
VMX compressors are supplied as compressor stages requiring installation.
Suitable accessories complete the screw compressor, making it ready for use. VMX
screw compressors are suitable for „stationary operation“ as well as for installation
inside „mobile compressor systems“. They may only be operated in mobile systems
when the running gear is in the rest position.
E GLISH
EN
ENGLISH
Drive:
The compressor is driven by an electric motor or a combustion motor using a belt
drive or flexible drive coupling.
The compressor stages are suitable for frequency converter operation. Please also
refer to the „Frequency converter“ section.
Motor connection:
Electrical installation must only be carried out by an authorised electrical fitter.
The motor‘s direction of rotation must be set in accordance with the direction of rota-
tion marked on the compressor.
For details of the permissible belt pretensioning forces, please refer to the data table
in the Appendix. The permissible axle loads must not be exceeded.
The motor and control voltage must be connected to a common network to ensure that
the locking of the power contactor will be disabled if the power supply fails.
Alternative: An electronic monitoring relay must be installed parallel to the drive motor
so that the power contactor can be unlocked in the event of a power failure.
A restart must only be possible once the machine has come to a stop.
Prerequisites for operating rotary piston machines with asynchronous electric motors
on a 3-phase AC supply network:
The machine should only be used on stable three-phase supply networks.
The voltage and frequency limits must be observed.
These are specified in EN 60034-1.
Voltage fluctuations/dips beyond the tolerance zone can seriously damage all ele-
ments that make up the drive system, e.g. couplings, V-belts, V-belt pulleys, shafts,
etc... .
If excessive voltage fluctuations arise in the system,
Aerzener Maschinenfabrik recommends the following measures in order to prevent the
blower, compressor or motor from sustaining damage:
- Use suitable protective equipment that will shut down the motor and safeguard it
against an automatic restart when inadmissible operating data are detected. Observe
also EN 60034-1 and EN 60 204-1.
Intake side:
The intake side must be safely equipped with appropriate accessories for the applica-
tion concerned.
The fineness of the intake air filter can be determined by referring to the data table in
the Appendix.
Please also refer to DIN EN 779 „Particulate air filters for general
ventilation“.
The degree of contamination of the intake air or the specifications in the maintenance
schedule provided by the unit manufacturer determine when the filter element is to be
replaced.
In the event of a „compressor shutdown“ or „EMERGENCY OFF“, care must be taken
to prevent pressurised lubricating oil from escaping via the compressor‘s intake side.
The conveyed amount can be regulated by restricting the air intake.
10 V4-020 L EN
Discharge side: 2
The discharge side must be safely equipped with appropriate accessories for the ap-
plication concerned.
The oil injected into the compressor stage must be separated from the flow of air by
means of an oil separator inside the oil collector before being subsequently cooled
and filtered.
A corresponding pressure holding valve must be installed downstream of the oil collec-
tor.
ENGLISH
ISH
H
The system must be designed to prevent depressurisation from occurring via the oil
GLIS
system and compressor stage in the event of a drive motor standstill.
ENGL
EN
Due to the high compressed discharge temperatures --> high surface heat emission,
stripping or blistering of the varnish may occur in the vicinity of the discharge side.
However, this does not impair the useful properties of the compressor and does not
constitute a defect.
Machine protection
The VMX screw conveyor must be protected with appropriate pressure and tempera-
ture sensors to ensure safe and proper operation.
Impermissible increases in pressure and temperature can result in explosions, system
damage and personal injury.
The pressure and temperature limits are specified in the data table appendix.
Operation WITHOUT instrumentation, protective devices, etc., is not permitted.
Function:
Aerzener screw compressors are rotary piston machines whose rotors turn uniformly
against each other. The rotors feature an internal oil film to ensure contact-free run-
ning.
During operation, the medium to be conveyed flows through the intake flange to the
housing and inlet for the rotors. The inlet is closed off due to the rotation of the rotors,
and the medium to be conveyed is directed towards the discharge side. The volume
within the rotors is reduced and the pressure of the medium to be conveyed increases.
Compression heat arises during the compression process. Some of the heat is dis-
sipated into the ambient air via the outer surfaces of the compressor and conveying
pipes.
Outer surfaces and conveying pipes reach temperatures that can cause burns on
exposed skin.

then operate !
This rotary piston machine conforms to European safety regulations. Nevertheless,
residual technical risks, which could endanger persons and property, may remain. As a
preventive measure, operators must observe the following safety information:
• Assembling the compressor stage in the unit

The compressor stage connections (e.g. on the intake and discharge side, and the
oil supply lines) must remain sealed until they are about to be installed.
The ingress of dirt, burring, sputtering, liquids and similar must be avoided. (Other-
wise the compressor stage can become blocked or sustain serious damage.)
Information about operating data

• Operating data is listed in the data table in the Appendix. The specified operating
limits must be observed.
• The machine must be used appropriately and according to regulations, as well as
within its performance limits.
• Depending on the operating state, the sound pressure level may deviate from that
stated in the operating data. A sound pressure level in excess of 80 dB(A) may
therefore occur for a short period of time.
Information about general operation

• In addition to the information in the operating instructions, general safety and

- Retreat the conveying chamber with ESSO MZK LD 30.
- Retreat the external bright surfaces with Tectyl 506.
- Replace the shaft sealing ring including the O-ring seal on the housing cover.
.
- Check the sealing caps on the connection openings.
- Repackage the machine appropriately.
• If special packaging is to be used, e.g. for transportation by sea, etc.,

specific storage and mothballing guidelines laid down by Aerzener Maschinenfab-
rik must be observed.
• Whilst the units are in storage, please ensure that they are correctly preserved
and packaged. They must be checked every six weeks.
• You must eliminate any adverse influences immediately to ensure ongoing preser-
vation of the units.
• Units must be kept and stored in dry, clean locations that are free of vibrations.
• During storage, no sealing plugs or plastic caps should be removed from bore
holes, flanges, etc. The purpose of these is to prevent any foreign bodies from
entering the machine.
Installation/Assembly
• Check the connection openings on the intake and discharge sides for any signs of
damage.
• Check the conveying chamber for any signs of damage.
• Check all connections and screwed connections for signs of damage and to en-
sure they are in perfect working order.
• The compressor must be installed on an even foundation that does not vibrate or
incline.
• Sufficient space for maintenance and/or repair work must be allowed for at the
installation site.
• Remove all packaging material.
• Ensure that the installation site is adequately ventilated.
• Check that the rotary piston machine can run easily.
Sluggishness indicates distortion or foreign bodies.
• The compressor must be assembled without any distortion.
A distorted housing can result in serious compressor damage.
Rough bearing surfaces or seats can result in distortion during assembly.
• The forces and/or moments acting on the flange and connections must lie within
the range specified in the data table.
• Take noise protection into consideration. Piping and foundations may be stimu-
lated into producing natural vibrations and the associated sound emissions.
V4-020 L EN

5 • If you are planning the system in-house, the safety information, maintenance
information and technical documentation provided by your component suppliers
must also be observed.
• Oil supply connections must be established in accordance with the installation
drawing.
• When selecting the drive coupling, remember to take account of the cyclic
irregularity associated with combustion motors. We recommend that you
recalculate the speed that is critical from the point of view of torsion assuming the
E GLISH
EN
ENGLISH
failure of one of the cylinders.

• A tightly fitted spacer ring must be mounted between the drive element and the
liner for installing the coupling or belt pulley.
• The spacer ring prevents under-pressure from being applied on the seal as a
result of the rotating drive elements.
• The spacer ring must have a width of 8 mm. The spacer ring should not move
loosely on the shaft.
• To prevent the development of noise, attention must be paid to adequate
clearance between the spacer ring and the fixed components. This may be
prevented by a chamfer on the outer diameter of the spacer ring (start of the
chamfer <= outer diameter of the liner).
• The belt pulleys or coupling halves must be assembled and aligned as precisely
as possible. The magnitude of any misalignment will affect the life of the drive
elements.
• The vibration behaviour of VMX compressors with mounted belt pulleys or cou-
plings is largely determined by the balance quality of the pistons/rotors as well as
the balance of the drive elements.
• At Aerzener Maschinenfabrik, the piston/rotor driving shafts are balanced using
the „half-key balancing“ technique.
• The belt pulleys/couplings must be used in accordance with the requirements of
balancing type „H“.

6 Commissioning
You must comply with all the points described in these instructions when
preparing and assembling the compressor stage.
First commissioning
On first commissioning, remember to ensure that the total lubricating oil volume speci-
fied by the system manufacturer
E GLISH
EN
ENGLISH
START is provided.
All oil-carrying components on the unit side must be filled with sufficient quantities of
oil.
Prelubricate the equipment:

- On first commissioning
- Following a downtime period of more than six weeks
You must prelubricate the compressor on first commissioning or following a downtime

period of more than six weeks.
To carry out prelubrication, fill the compressor‘s intake side with the correct lubricating
oil volume. For details of the required lubricating oil volume, please refer to the data
table in the Appendix.
During filling, turn the drive shaft manually the opposite way to the direction of rotation.
CAUTION! Secure the compressor to prevent accidental start-up.
Risk of injury!
Ensure that the compressor is correctly supplied with lubricating oil.

Use suitable test equipment to check protective devices.
Respect the direction of rotation, see marking on compressor/direction of rotation ar-
row. The drive motor‘s direction of rotation must match the direction of rotation arrow
on the compressor.
CAUTION! Rotation in the wrong direction will damage the compressor beyond
repair!
Ensure proper operation and smooth ramping up and coasting down.
Caution! Do not switch the compressor on while the system is coasting down.
If you do, there is a risk of causing serious damage.
Requirements during compressor START

During the start phase, the compressor must be throttled so that the inlet pressure on
the intake side is restricted to < 0.2 bar until the rated speed has been reached.
The required lubricating oil pressure must be built up at the compressor‘s injection
point within four seconds of the drive motor starting.
During the start phase, this pressure must be 1.0 bar higher than the inlet pressure
with the intake throttle closed.
Requirements during load operation

During load operation, the lubricating oil pressure must be 2.0 bar higher than the inlet
pressure.
For further information, please also refer to the data table in the Appendix.
Caution!
Insufficient quantities of oil, overshooting of the oil temperature limit or mechanical
damage inside the compressor stage can result in combustion or explosions!
You must ensure that the oil supply is functioning reliably throughout the entire operat-
ing period, but particularly during start-up and control processes.
You must adhere to the maintenance schedule.
20 V4-020 L EN
6
Operation of the unit: Please also observe the system manufacturer‘s operating in-
structions.
Commissioning information to be observed following maintenance and repair
work
When commissioning the equipment following maintenance and repair work, you must
ensure that the oil system has been filled with sufficient lubricating oil, including all ac-
cessories such as oil filters, oil coolers, lubricating oil lines, etc.
ENGLISH
ISH
H
The oil may need to be poured in manually depending on the component concerned
GLIS
(e.g. in the case of an oil filter).
ENGL
The correct oil level must be ensured and checked again after a brief period of opera-
EN
tion.
The accessory and additional components built into the compressor system must be
maintained in accordance with the relevant instructions.
Lubricating oil temperature

The lubricating oil temperatures specified by the data table in the Appendix must be
observed.
If the oil temperature is too low, condensate will form in the oil.
It is vital that no condensate is allowed to form. Otherwise, there is a risk of damage to
the machine due to insufficient lubrication.
If the oil temperature is too high, the minimum oil viscosity will be undershot. This will
result in damaged bearings and worn rotors.
V4-020 L EN

7 Recommendation for VMX screw compressor
lubricating oil
Criteria for selecting suitable lubricating oil

• To ensure year-round continuous operation with various ambient temperatures,
you should only use fully synthetic lubricating oils.
E GLISH
EN
ENGLISH
• A suitable lubricating oil should be used that is non-ageing, provides protection

against corrosion and is not prone to frothing.
• The lubricating oil must be compatible with the sealing materials used on the VMX
compressor stage. It must not contain any oil additives that could react chemically
with the condensate that is present during start-up.
• The viscosity is very important when selecting a suitable lubricating oil. The per-
missible viscosity is specified by the data table in the Appendix.
• The pour point of the lubricating oil should be at least 5°C below the lowest ambi-
ent temperature.
• The lubricating oil must conform to the properties in the data table.
Dirt in, additions to and impurities in the lubricating oil

• No condensate must be allowed to enter the lubricating oil.
Condensate in the oil will result in gaps in the oil film and consequently lead to
compressor damage.
• Abrasive impurities in the lubricating oil must also be avoided.
These impurities will damage the profile of the rotors and result in damaged bear-
ings. We therefore recommend that you filter the new lubricating oil when filling
the system.
Lubricating oil recommendation

There are a large number of different lubricating oils available on the market and
we are unable to test the suitability of all of them, because this would require ex-
tended time tests to be carried out and because the specific features of individual
systems have a major impact on the life of the oil.
The choice of lubricating oil should be agreed with the lubricating oil manufacturer,
taking this information into account.
The following oils have produced sound empirical results in practice. They are there-
fore recommended by Aerzener Maschinenfabrik.
Oil brand Name

SHELL Corena S4 R
ARAL Motanol SPA 68
ESSO Compressoir Oil RS
Liqui Moly Kompressorenöl LM 900
Other brands of oil can also be used, provided that compliance with the specifications
can be ensured.
Oils of different grades or from different manufacturers must not be used in the same
machine at the same time.
The specified change intervals are fully based on the assumption that the lubricating
oil possesses the properties stated.
22 V4-020 L EN
Oil injection 8
• VMX compressors do not have an internal function for regulating the oil quantity.
• The connection and injection cross sections have been dimensioned in such a
way as to ensure a sufficient quantity of oil during operation based on the permis-
sible operating data.
• Regulating units can be installed on the unit side provided that this does not result
in the permissible operating range being exceeded.
ENGLISH
ISH
H
The lubricating oil temperature specified by the data table in the Appendix must be

•
observed.
ENGL
If this temperature is undershot, condensate will form in the lubricating oil.
EN
It is vital that no condensate is allowed to form, otherwise there is a risk of dam-
age to the machine.
Oil filter/Oil filter fineness

The oil filter is a component on the unit side.
To ensure the desired levels of lubricating oil purity, you should use filters with a fine-
ness of 10 μm and a filtration efficiency of 99%.
According to ISO 16889, this corresponds to a filtration ratio of β10 = 100.
This means that 99% of the 10 μm particles are filtered out from the lubricating oil.
Please also refer to the data table in the Appendix.
Intake air filter/Filter fineness

The intake air filter is a component on the unit side.
To ensure the desired levels of intake air purity, you should use filters with a fineness
of 20 μm and a filtration efficiency of 99.9%.
The filter should be designed in such a way that improper installation is impossible.
No leaks should occur in the seal in the case of correct assembly.
Dirt particles must be prevented from entering the compressor stage.
Foreign matter and gas admixtures in the intake air can result in damage and impair
the properties of the lubricating oil.
Please also refer to the data table in the Appendix.
V4-020 L EN

9 Shutting down/Taking out of operation
• The motor power switch is used to shut down the unit.
• For the purpose of putting the unit out of operation completely, the fuses should be
removed after the compressor has come to a standstill. The slides in the con-
veying pipes must be closed. Condensate must be prevented from entering the
compressor stage.
E GLISH
EN
ENGLISH
• In the event of a downtime period of more than six weeks:

- Fill the conveying chamber completely with oil in accordance with the recom
mendation for lubricating oil
in order to prevent corrosion damage.
- Regularly turn the compressor‘s drive shaft manually
in order to prevent damage due to lack of use.
- Treat the external bright work.
- Remove the drive motor fuses in order to prevent accidental
start-up.
- Check that the unit is correctly preserved in accordance with the maintenance
schedule.
• In the event of a downtime/storage period of more than a year,

Replace the radial shaft sealing ring and drive shaft sleeve prior to commissioning.
All the necessary spare parts are included in an
Aerzener Service Kit.
Failure to observe this point can result in the seal being damaged beyond repair or
in oil leaks on the drive shaft due to gumming of the oil and sticking of the sealing
lip.
START following a downtime period of more than six weeks

• In the event of a START following a downtime period of more than six weeks, the
conveying chamber must be emptied of oil and, where applicable, oil should be
drained from the compressor stage.
You must ensure that the conveying chamber is no longer full of lubricating oil.
A small residual quantity of oil is permissible for the purpose of lubricating the ro-
tors and bearings as are surfaces that are wet with oil.
The conveying chamber must be prelubricated once there is no lubricating oil left
inside it. Please refer to the Commissioning section for details of the prelubrication
procedure.
CAUTION! If the compressor is started when the conveying chamber is complete-

ly full, there is a risk of serious damage.
The conveying chamber must be inspected visually, the rotors must be rotated
manually and a check must be carried out to ensure easy running.
CAUTION! Risk of crushing, severing and injury!
In an emergency:
EMERGENCY OFF button. For details, please refer to the instructions provided by the
electrical supplier/system manufacturer.

Frequency converter operation 10
• If the electric motor is driven by frequency converters, we strongly recommend
using an engine throttle and power choke. These are specifically designed for the
frequency converter and filter dangerous harmonics from the drive current.
Damage to the motor winding can be prevented by improving the electromagnetic
compatability of the system and reducing reactions of the frequency converter in
the current
ENGLISH
ISH
H
• The electrical and mechanical properties of the drive motor must be taken into
GLIS
account.
ENGL
• The frequency converter must be designed for operating a driven machine with a
EN
constant load torque.
• The minimum and maximum speeds specified by the data table must not be un-
dershot/exceeded.
• For the purpose of setting the maximum frequency, the maximum motor and com-
pressor speeds must be taken into account.
• Recommended speed variation rate: 1 Hz/s
Higher speed variation rates can result in damage to the compressor due to step
changes in torque associated with the motor.
• To prevent breakdowns, the „flying restart“ function in the frequency converter‘s
control must not be parameterised. When the frequency converter is shut down, it
can only be restarted once the compressor has reached a complete standstill.
