Fault handling

6.1

Faults and corrective actions

Problem
The compressor starts up with
lag. There is a slow build up in
the electric motor's speed.
There's a whistling during the
compressor's operation.
The compressor won't start.
There's a temperature block on
the control unit's display.
The compressor is overheating.
The safety-relief valve of the
separator tank is activated.

Storage and disposal

7.1

Storage conditions

The compressor should be kept at a temperature between -20° and +35°С with max. 85%
relative humidity.
7.2

Disposal of oils and process condensate

Used oils, greasy filters and separators should be recycled in a sealed container and dis- posed of
at a local recycling or disposal facility. Do not allow precipitation to mix with oil. Process condensate
contains oil. Local environmental regulations govern the degree of contamination of condensate
discharge into sewers. Use process condensate separators to separate oil and further impurities
from condensate.
Replaceable components of a process condensate separator should be disposed of in the same
way as greasy wiping cloths.

Possible faults
The belt is overtightened
The oil is thick.
The belt is slipping.
The ambient air temperature in
the facility does not meet the
required temperature (below
+5 °C or above +40 °C).
There's insufficient ventilation in
the facility where the compres-
sor is installed.
The oil level is too low.
The radiator is dirty
The separator is dirty.
The pressure is too high
(over13 bar).
Corrective actions
Tighten the belt with the rel-
evant load.
Replace the oil.
Tighten the belt with the appro-
priate tensile force (see section
5.3 Checking drive belt).
Ensure the necessary ambi- ent
air temperature where the com-
pressor is installed.
Increase the air circulation
inside the facility.
Top up oil.
Blow down the radiator with
compressed air.
Perform maintenance by
replac- ing the separator.
Set the working pressure
below 13 bar.
