Electric Connection - SCHNEIDER DRUCKLUFT Profimaster Typ 100-6 Silent Bedienungs- Und Wartungsanleitung

2.1 Positioning
In order to ensure proper air flow, rear ventilation grills of
compressors shall be positioned at least at 50 cm from
any obstacles which may prevent air from flowing out
correctly.

2.2 Electric connection

All compressors are delivered only after a succesfull testing period
at the factory and are ready to use.
As the electric connection is really important, before performing
any operation, you must check that:
• mains power corresponds to the power data written on the label
or on the technical sheet of the compressor,
• wall outlet is suitable for the power cord plug. Please note that
the compressor is equipped with a plug type EEC 7
If any adaptation is necessary, in accordance with local
voltage requirements, have the plug replaced by a qualified
electrician.
Before carrying out the electric connection, make sure that
the compressor main switch (A) is OFF, position "0" (Fig.
2).
2.3 Starting
After completing the installation and the electric connection
your compressor is ready to work.
Follow the indication below:
• Turn the main switch (A) to position "I" ON .
• Make the compressor run for about 10 minutes with air cock (B)
completely open and pressure reducer (C) set to the max. pressure
value allowed, i.e. 8 bar.
• If your compressor is a Genius or, in any case, if equipped with
a snap cock you have to totally open the condensate drain cock
(E).
• After such a time, close cock (A) or (E) and make sure that
pressure in the tank is properly delivered and the compressor
stops automatically when the max. pressure value allowed (8
bar) - shown on the manometer (D) is achieved.
Now you may appreciate the easiness of use of your compressor.
Its way of operation is automatically controlled by the pressure
switch which stops the motor when the max. pressure allowed is
achieved, and starts it again when pressure goes below the
minimum threshold (about 2 bar less than the max. pressure).
When the compressor runs correctly, you note:
a) a whistle of compressed air whenever the motor stops,
b) a protracted whistle (about 20-30 seconds) whenever you start
the compressor with no pressure in the tank.
Never stop the compressor by unplugging it; rather turn
OFF the main switch by setting it to position "0". The
compressed air inside the compressor head will flow out
and will make the restart easier.
