BE Pressure supply 80 Gallon Enclosed Rotary Screw Compressor AC1080SQ - Manual (Page 11)

11
Controls
The RS series of units is equipped with a normally closed inlet valve. This
means that when the unit is started, the inlet valve remains closed while
the unit builds up pressure by means of a bypass line. After startup
the inlet valve is controlled by a simple on/off action of a pressure switch
working with a solenoid valve.
For instrumentation the unit has a discharge temperature gauge, air
pressure gauge
Installation
General
The standard RS series was designed for indoor applications. For
outdoor applications consult the factory for modifications. Failure to
obtain factory approval will void the warranty.
Foundation
Your Compressed Air Systems LLC rotary screw compressor does not
require a special foundation. However, it is necessary that the floor be
level and the frame adequately supported. Consult the SPECIFICATIONS
section of this manual for the compressor weight and dimensions. We do
recommend that the compressor be bolted to the floor. We recommend
the compressor be mounted on vibration reduction pads
Room
The room should be of adequate size to provide full access to the
machine for routine maintenance. It should have ventilation to keep the
room as cool as possible. Operating at elevated temperatures will cause
nuisance overload and temperature shutdowns. Room temperature
should not exceed 1100 F.
Air Intake
To achieve the longest filter and lubricant life and the least maintenance
you need to supply the compressor with the cleanest air possible. It must
not contain any flammable or toxic gases. These will be concentrated
by the compressor, and could result in personal injury or death and
property damage.
WARNING
Inlet containing reactive gases will cause the failure of the lubricant and
compressor. Insure an air supply that is well clear of any reactive gas source.
If it is necessary to take air from a remote source, the piping should be
at least the diameter of the air filter inlet. For distance over twenty feet
the diameter needs to be enlarged to reduce the restriction. This pipe
should also be corrosion resistant and free from scale and dirt. The inlet
should also be covered to prevent rain and small animals from entering.
