MAGNETIC MOTOR STARTER
An optional magnetic motor starter
which has been selected and wired for
the intended input voltage is available
for all units. All starters are furnished
with properly sized overload heaters.
REFRIGERATED AIR DRYER
A factory mounted Model Hankinson
HPR 5-10 Series refrigerated air dryer
with automatic condensate drain trap
assembly, bypass valve is available as an
option on all 1/2 through 3 Hp Powerex
Simplex air compressors. Piping for air
dryer is done at the factory. Wiring to
power source must be done in the field
using integral cord and plug which fits
into a standard 120 volt receptacle.
Refer to Table 2 for ordering details.
AUTOMATIC TANK DRAIN
Powerex air compressors are ordered
with either a manual or electric type
automatic tank drain. This unit is fur-
nished with a manual drain attach-
ment.
VIBRATION DAMPENING PADS
Waffle type design vibration pads are
provided as standard equipment.
Factory calibrated snap-acting DPST
pressure electric switches provide auto-
matic cut-in and cut-out. Overpressure
protection is provided by an ASME safe-
ty relief valve. Receiver tanks have a
condensate drain valve with an exten-
sion for easy access. All mounting bases
are slotted for V-belt tension adjust-
ment to aid in maintaining proper com-
pressor and motor alignment.
All units are run through the factory
break-in and are tested for air delivery,
leakage and power consumption.
Units are shipped with a proper fill of
compressor oil in the crankcase and are
furnished with an intake filter/silencer
with a replaceable cartridge. This fil-
ter/silencer combination is designed to
remove contaminates in the inlet air
and provide quieter operation. The 5
through 10 Hp models are compliment-
ed by this design utilizing dual element
filtration which consists of a pleated
element and a foam element for filtra-
tion against larger particles from the
atmosphere.
LUBRICATION
Check lubricating oil level at gauge.
Refill if necessary.
Change oil according to maintenance
schedule. Before draining oil, remove
oil supply cap and loosen oil drain cap
to release trapped air. Use Mobil Rarus
427
® or Mobil DTE heavy oils.
Dispose of oil in
accordance with
state or local codes.
! WARNING
