Location
Quincy air compressors must be installed and operated in a secure, level, up-
right position in an area that is clean, dry, well lighted, adequately ventilated,
and not less than 12 inches to a wall or other compressor. (Note: A gas engine
will produce carbon monoxide; always provide adequate ventilation!) Inspec-
tion and mainte nance checks are required daily. Therefore, sufficient space
needs to be provided around the compressor for safe and proper in spection,
cleaning, and maintenance.
Ample circu la tion of air must be provided across the compressor cylinders,
heads and cooler (if so equipped). If at all possible, the pulley drive system
(i.e. motor pul ley, compressor sheave, belts and guard) should face a wall to
minimize any danger created by the drive system while the compressor is
operating. Do not allow hot air from additional equipment to blow towards
the compressor.
Quincy compressors should be operated in temperatures under 104°F. In
cold cli mates, the compressor should be installed in a heated building.
Do not operate this compressor in ambient temperatures lower
than 0° F. A crankcase heater is recommended for a compressor
that is to operate in temperatures under 32° F.
Under no circumstances should a compressor be used in an area
that may be exposed to toxic, volatile, or corrosive atmo sphere. Do
not store toxic, volatile, or corrosive agents near the compressor.
