ROUTINE MAINTENANCE
All maintenance work and testing listed in the maintenance plan
must be performed and documented at the intervals listed in the
Maintenance Schedule.
All maintenance, repairs, and service work performed on the
compressor must be documented.
Cleanliness
The compressor room and the environment of the compressor must
always be kept clean.
The compressor must be checked regularly for damage and
excessive wear.
Spilled oil must be wiped up immediately. Oil traces must be
removed immediately.
Electrical Connections
The condition of cables and terminals must be checked regularly.
•
Watch for loose connections or worn wires. All connections
must be clean and tight.
•
Replace worn or damaged wires or cables immediately.
Leak Points
WARNING
Risk of injury due to high pressure
•
Do not use the hand to search for leaking
points in the system.
•
Always use paper or cardboard for this
purpose.
•
If a leak is suspected, check the appropriate area for leaks.
•
Immediately repair or replace damaged or leaking pipe and
hose connections.
Emission or Leakage of Consumable Materials
The following consumables are used in the compressor:
•
Compressor lubricants
•
Lubricating grease
In case of accident or extended contact with consumable materials,
follow the instructions on the Safety Data Sheets (SDS).
Prevent leakage of operating fluids.
Carefully clear up any operating fluids that escape. Observe the
information in the hazardous substance data sheets!

MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE
DANGER
High Voltage
Hazard of shock, burn or death
•
Work on the electrical equipment must be
performed only by specialized electrical
technicians.
•
Shut down compressor, relieve system
of all pressure, disconnect, lockout and
tagout power supply to the starter before
servicing the unit.
•
Be careful of the hot surfaces of machine
parts when carrying out checks, making
settings and doing maintenance.
WARNING
The tank is still pressurized after the system has been
switched off. Small parts propelled at high speed by
compressed air can penetrate the skin or destroy an eye.
Only perform checks and maintenance after observing
the following:
•
Turn the selector switch to OFF on the control
panel and wait until the compressor comes to a
stop.
•
The pressure gauge shows 4.4 psig (.3 barg) or less.
•
Shortly after shutting off the compressor unit, a
small residual pressure may remain.
•
Set the on-site main switch to "O" (OFF) and secure
it against being switched on.
•
Do not exceed 15 PSIG nozzle pressure when
cleaning element parts with compressed air. Do
not direct compressed air against human skin.
Serious injury could result. Never wash elements in
fuel oil, gasoline or flammable solvent.
•
Never operate unit without doors in place. Removal
will expose rotating parts which can cause injury or
equipment damage.
