10 GENERAL INFORMATION
WATER PIPING SYSTEM The coolant system consists of a sump, cooler, thermostatic valve
and a filter. When the unit is operating, the coolant is pressurised and
KEY forced to the compressor bearings.
A: AFTERCOOLER
B: LUBRICANT COOLER The compressor load control system is automatic ’On–Off line’. The
compressor will operate to maintain a set discharge line pressure and
C: VALVE is provided with an autorestart system for use in plants where the air
demand varies widely.
D: AIR OUT
E: AIR OUT Panel instrumentation is provided to indicate the compressor
F: LUBRICANT IN operating conditions and general status.
G: LUBRICANT OUT
As an option a modulation kit extends the control type to capacity
control when the compressor is switched between ’On–Off line’ and
modulation as demand varies.
GENERAL OPERATION
The air/coolant mixture discharges from the compressor into the
separation system. This system removes all but a few PPM of the
coolant from the discharge air. The coolant is returned to the cooling
system and the air passes to the aftercooler and out of the compressor
through the moisture separator.
Refer to flow diagram.
Air is pulled into the machine by the cooling fan and is pushed
through the combined cooler / aftercooler.
By cooling the discharge air, much of the water vapour naturally
contained in the air is condensed and may be drained from the
downstream piping and equipment.
