Resumen del manual
Check Valve (not shown): When the air compressor is operating, the check valve is "open", allowing compressed air to enter the air tank. When the air compressor reaches "cut-out" pressure, the check valve "closes", allowing air pressure to remain inside the air tank. Pressure Release Valve (not shown): The pressure release valve, located on the side of the pressure switch, is designed to automatically release compressed air from the compressor head and the outlet tube when the air compressor reaches "cut-out" pressure or is shut off. The pressure release valve allows the motor to restart freely. When the motor stops running, air will be heard escaping from the valve for a few seconds. No air should be heard leaking when the motor is running. Shut-off Valve (sold separately): Closes the air outlet (E, Fig. 1) allowing the tank to fill with air. Regulator (sold separately): An air pressure regulator or a separate air transformer which combines the functions of air regulation and/or moisture and dirt removal is recommended for most applications. 7-ENG INSTALLATION Improper electrical installation of this product may void its warranty and your fire insurance. Have circuit wiring performed by qualified personnel such as a licensed electricians who is familiar with the current national electrical code and any prevailing local electrical codes. Location of the Air Compressor The manifold assembly does not provide adequate stability or support for lifting the unit. If the unit must be moved, use the air tank for lifting. Operate the air compressor in a clean, dry, and well-ventilated area. The air intake filter must be kept clear of obstructions which could reduce air delivery of the air compressor. The air compressor should be located at least 12" away from walls or other obstructions that could interfere with the flow of air. The air compressor crankcase and head are designed with fins to provide proper cooling. The flywheel side of the unit should be placed toward the wall and protected with a totally enclosed belt guard. The area should allow space on all sides for air circulation and for ease of normal maintenance. Keep the unit away from areas which have dirt, vapor, and combustible fumes in the atmosphere which may clog and gum the intake filter and valves, causing inefficient operation. If humidity is high, an air filter can be installed in line to remove excessive moisture. Closely follow instructions packaged with the filter for proper installation. It must be installed as close as possible to the accessory. The air compressor should be as near to air outlets as possible in order to avoid long pipe lines. Do not place the air compressor where heat is excessive. Do not use an extension cord. To avoid voltage drop and power loss to the motor, use extra air hose instead of an extension cord. Air Compressor Anchoring Methods (Fig. 2) Vibration can weaken the air tank and cause an explosion. The AIR compressor must be properly mounted as illustrated in Fig 2. This air compressor must be bolted to the floor. Bolting holes are provided in the base feet. Mount the air compressor on a solid, level foundation. Support air compressor weight evenly on all four feet. Solid shims may be used if necessary. 3/8" Lag Screw (not supplied) Torque to 5-7 Ft.Lb. 3/8" Flat Washer (not supplied) Isolator Washer Floor Line Shim Under Isolator Washer if Necessary (not supplied) Lag Screw Anchor for Concrete (not supplied) Fig. 2 8-ENG Wiring Instructions (Fig. 3) Perform electrical wiring according to the following instructions: Improper electrical grounding can result in a risk of electrical shock. Wiring for the pressure switch AND electrical motor should be done by a licensed electrician in accordance with national and local codes and ordinances. Install the air compressor unit as close to the main power supply as possible. This practice will avoid using long lengths of electrical wiring for the power supply which can cause power loss to the motor. When connecting wires make sure that: 1. The amperage rating of the electrical box is adequate. 2. The supply line has the same electrical characteristics (voltage, cycle, and phase) as motor. Refer to the Specification Chart or your air compressor unit. NOTE: THESE UNITS DO NOT INCLUDE ANY WIRING BECAUSE OF VARIOUS INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS. Wiring must be such that full motor nameplate voltage plus or minus 10% is available at the motor terminals during starting. Refer to local codes for recommended wire sizes for correct wire size and maximum wire run; undersize wire causes high amp draw and overheating to the motor. Electrical wiring must be located away from hot surfaces such as the air compressor head, compressor cylinder, or compressor outlet tube.
