operation manual Model # AC1030K5000 AC1030K5000W AC1330HB3000W AC1330HB5500 AC1330HEB CAUTION READ THIS MANUAL CAREFULLY before operating or servicing this air compressor, to familiarize yourself with the proper safety, operation, and standard operating procedures of this unit. FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH INSTRUCTIONS IN THIS MANUAL COULD RESULT IN THE VOIDING OF YOUR WARRANTY, AND PERSONAL INJURY, AND/OR PROPERTY DAMAGE.
introduction Attention: Read through the complete manual prior to the initial use of your Compressor Using the Operator’s manual The operating manual is an important part of your Compressor and should be read thoroughly before initial use, and referred to often to make sure adequate safety and service concerns are being addressed. Reading the owner’s manual thoroughly will help avoid any personal injury or damage to your pump.
product identification Record Identification Numbers Compressor If you need to contact an Authorized Dealer or Customer Service line (1-866-850-6662) for information on servicing, always provide the product model and identification numbers. You will need to locate the model and serial number for the pump and record the information in the places provided below.
safety Safety Precautions and Warnings Listed are some, but not all safety precautions that must be observed with compressors. Failure to follow any of these warnings may result in severe personal injury, death, property damage and/or compressor damage. • Air from this compressor will cause severe injury or death if used for breathing or food processing. • Air used for these processes must meet OSHA 29 CFR 1910 or FDA 21 178.3570 regulations.
troubleshooting Troubleshooting Chart NOTE: Troubleshooting problems may have similar causes and solutions. Make sure drive engine battery is disconnected before any maintenance or repair. ALWAYS MAKE SURE COMPRESSOR DRIVE ENGINE KEY SWITCH IF OFF AND REMOVED FROM THE COMPRESSOR You should always contact an authorized service center before attempting to fix or repair your air compressor. Problem Compressor stalls and dies Possible Cause 1. Drive engine low on fuel. 2.
troubleshooting Problem Excessive oil discharge in air (All Compressors have a small amount of oil carry over in compression) Compressor Overheating Possible Cause 1. Worn piston rings or cylinder. 2. Restricted air intake. 3. Oil level to high. 4. Compressor has exceeded it duty cycle. 1. Poor ventilation. 2. Dirty cooling surfaces. 3. Compressor is out of its operating duty cycle. Excessive belt wear Compressor won’t start in cold weather Compressor has excessive vibration 6 1.
compressor maintenance Compressor Maintenance warning To avoid personal injury, always turn drive engine key off and remove from compressor, relive all air pressure from the system, also disconnect the battery power connections before starting any service or maintenance on the compressor. Daily: Drain the receiver. Condensation will accumulate in the tank daily, and should be drained at least once a day. This is done to reduce corrosions of the tank from the inside.
storage Every 3 months: Change oil to ensure that the compressor has proper oil level and that the oil in the machine does not deteriorate past factory specifications. Inspect valve assemblies to prevent premature failure and clean out and carbon that can form in older valves. *Elite units clean auto tank drain strainer and check for proper function. Inspect pressure switch for proper function. Inspect check valve for proper function and remove any carbon accumulation to prevent premature failure.
adjustments & alignment Adjusting Belt Tension Proper belt tension and pulley alignment must be maintained for maximum drive efficiency and for maximum belt life. The correct tensions exists if a deflection of ½ inch occurs by placing 10lbs of force midway between the motor pulley and the compressor flywheel. This deflection can be adjusted by the following procedure. The pulley should be carefully aligned with the flywheel and set screws should be kept tight. 1. Remove the belt guard. 2.
unit description What is a reciprocating compressor? A reciprocating compressor is a piston type pump which develops pressure from the action of a piston moving through a cylinder. The cylinder, or cylinders, may be vertical, horizontal or angular. When air is drawn in from the atmosphere and compressed to its final pressure in a single stroke, the compressor is referred to as a “single stage” pump.
pre-operation Receiving and Uncrating of your Compressor Before uncrating the compressor the following steps should be taken. 1. Immediately upon receipt of the equipment, it should be inspected for damage that may have occurred during shipment. If any damage is found, demand an inspection immediately by an inspector from the carrier. Ask him how to file a claim for damages. (See Appendix “A” for Details). 2. Insure that adequate lifting equipment is available for moving the machinery. 3.
pre-operation Induction System Do not locate the compressor where it could ingest or ignite toxic, explosive or corrosive vapors, ambient air temperatures exceeding 110 degrees F, water or extremely dirty air. Ingestion of any of the above noted atmospheres by the compressor could jeopardize the performance of the equipment and all personnel exposed to the total compressor. Destructive pulsations can be induced by reciprocating compressors that will damage walls and break windows.
pre-operation Danger Safety valves are to protect system integrity in accordance with ASME Codes & ANSI B19.3 safety standards. Failure to use safety valves of the proper capacity and pressure will cause severe personal injury or death. Pressure Vessels Air receiver tanks and other pressure containing vessels such as, but not limited to, pulsation bottles, heat exchangers, moisture separators and traps, shall be in accordance with ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code Section VIII and ANSI B19.
pre-operation Guards All mechanical action or motion is hazardous in varying degrees and needs to be guarded. Guarding shall be in compliance with OSHA Safety and Health Standards 29 CFR 1910.219 in OSHA manual 2206 and any state or local code. CAUTION Guards must be fastened in place before starting the compressor and never removed before cutting off & locking out the main power supply.
start up preparations Start Up Preparation & Procedures The following check list shall be adhered to before putting the compressor into operation. CAUTION Failure to perform the checks may result in serious injury or death, property damage and/or mechanical failure. Disconnect and lock out power supply. 1. Remove all loose pieces and tools around the compressor installation. 2. Check oil level in crankcase, add as necessary. 3. Check all pressure connections for tightness and leaks. 4.
stopping for maintenance Stopping for Maintenance or Service CAUTION Never assume the compressor is ready for maintenance or service because it is stopped. The automatic stop/start control may start the compressor at any time! The following procedure should be followed to maximize safety when preparing for maintenance or service. 1. Turn compressor drive engine key switch off and remove key from compressor. 2.
maintenance Maintenance Safety Procedures Adherence to safe working procedures are important to Service personnel at the time of servicing and to those who may, at a later date be around the compressor and the system it serves. Routine maintenance insures trouble free operation and protects your investment. All warranties are void if maintenance is neglected. Daily Check the oil level. Maintain the level at the center of the sight glass with 30w non-detergent. Drain the tank.
