STORAGE AND TRANSPORT

Danger due to loads that fall over or fall
down!
Heavy loads that fall over or down may cause crushing,
resulting in injuries to people and even death!
Do not put loads on top of the packing.
Danger due to lifting heavy loads!
Heavy loads that fall over or down may cause crushing,
resulting in injuries to people and even death!
Before undertaking handling operations (lifting, moving,
transporting, and putting down) look at the unit's mass (M)
shown in the "CHARACTERISTIC DATA" table on page 3
and determine the best way to work in maximum safety.
In this regard all the prevention measures must be applied,
including any local and/or specific regulations that make it
possible to carry out the handling operations:
Using qualified personnel that have specific skills and
adequate training, using suitable equipment.
Organising the work in such a way that it poses the least
risk possible and is done under safe, healthy, conditions.
Using safe, stable support surfaces.
Use of suitable working clothes and adequate personal
protective equipment (protective gloves and safety
glasses, safety shoes and a hardhat).
Working in an area with sufficient space, level floors, no
obstructions.
Avoiding impacts, jolting, and shaking.
Units with a mass that exceeds 25 kg (55 lbs) are fitted with
lugs to be used for handling.
WARNING!
Lifting the unit is any way other than that indicated is strictly
forbidden. Use the lug provided on the blower unit or motor.
Store in a dry place, keeping the packing if possible. Do not
remove the covers over the openings.

INSTALLATION

4.1 SCL K COMPRESSOR – VACUUM PUMP
Any use other than the intended use of the
unit may cause serious injury and even
death!
• This operating manual:
MUST be read carefully and understood fully before doing
any work using the unit.
MUST be complied with fully.
MUST be to hand at all times at the workstation at which
the unit is used.
• Remember that installation operations are only to be
carried out by qualified personnel, that is, personnel
whose training, instruction, experience, knowledge of
standards, regulations, accident prevention procedures,
and operating and service conditions, makes them
capable of carrying out all the works necessary, while
being aware of and avoiding any possible danger and/or
damage.
Danger due to a lack of a clear view of the
place in which the unit is installed!
Make sure that the unit installed is always under control
when doing anything in the installation area.
The controls must be positioned in such a way as to be able
to see the unit installed.
Danger of very serious injury!
WARNING!
If the flow rate has to be reduced, use a draw-off valve
rather than throttling back the suction or delivery lines.
4.1.1

WORKING CONDITIONS

The "K" series of side channel compressors-vacuum pumps in
an "MOR" format are made to generate vacuums and
pressures, and for conveying air and gas that is not explosive,
not inflammable, not poisonous, and not aggressive, for
continuous operation in a non-explosive environment.
If installed outdoors, protect the unit against exposure to
sunlight.
The maximum pressure differentials allowed are indicated in the
"CHARACTERISTIC DATA" table on page 3 of this manual and
must never be exceeded. Only the following conditions are
valid:
As a compressor:
Gas intake temperature 20°C (+68°F) and atmospheric
pressure 1013 mbar (abs) (29,92 in Hg) measured at the
suction opening.
As a vacuum pump:
Gas intake temperature 20°C (+68°F) measured at the suction
opening and atmospheric back pressure 1013 mbar (abs)
(29,92 in Hg).
The ambient temperature and the intake temperature of the gas
conveyed is allowed within the -15°C (+5°F) to + 40°C (+104°F)
range, with the following provisions:
- If the ambient temperature is +30°C (+86°F) reduce the
maximum pressure differentials
"CHARACTERISTIC DATA" table on page 3 by 5%.
- If the ambient temperature is +40°C (+104°F) reduce the
maximum pressure differentials
"CHARACTERISTIC DATA" table on page 3 by 10%.
