ISOLATION VALVES
Install isolation valves where isolation of the
compressor from the service lines is required. These
valves should have drip legs that drain at an angle
downward from the base. A vent to the piping should
be installed downstream of the compressor outlet
connection.
When two compressors are installed to operate in
parallel with a common receiver tank, an isolation
valve and drain trap for each compressor should be
installed before the common separator/sump.
FLUID CONTAINMENT
Compressors have a fluid containment pan to collect
fluid leaks or spills. The pan has a drain located on
the front side of the machine.
4.4 BELT CHECK
Tension of drive belts should be checked upon
installation and after 0.5 to 2 hours of run time. This
is essential to proper performance of the compressor
unit as well as to ensure long belt life. In addition,
belt tension should be checked every 2000 hours
and adjusted if necessary.
Refer to Section 6: Belt Maintenance for detailed
instructions.
4.5 FLUID LEVEL CHECK
The compressor is shipped fully charged with the
proper amount of fluid. However, it is necessary to
check the fluid level at the time of installation and
NOTE
Compressors not equipped with a
receiver tank may need to have their
response times adjusted. Contact Sullair
