OPERATION & MAINTENANCE MANUAL

Thank you for purchasing this Gast product. It is manufactured to the highest standards

using quality materials. Please follow all recommended maintenance, operational

and safety instructions and you will receive years of trouble free service.

Product Use Criteria:

• Pump only clean, dry air.

• Operate at 32ºF - 104ºF (0ºC - 40ºC).

• Protect unit from dirt & moisture.

• Do not pump flammable or explosive gases or use in an atmosphere that contains such gases.

• Protect all surrounding items from exhaust air. This exhaust air can become very hot.

• Corrosive gases and particulate material will damage unit. Water vapor, oil-based contaminants or other liquids must be filtered out.

• Consult your Gast Distributor/Representative before using at high altitudes.

• This pump is oil-less and requires NO lubrication.

Your safety and the safety of others

Disconnect electrical power at the circuit breaker or fuse box before installing this product.

Install this product where it will not come into contact with water or other liquids.

Install this product where it will be weather protected.

Electrically ground this product.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, fire or electrical shock.

WARNING

Electrical Shock Hazard

is extremely important.

We have provided many important safety messages in this manual and on your product. Always read and

bey all safety messages.

Correct installation is your responsibility. Make sure you

have the proper installation conditions and that installation clearances do not block air flow.

Blocking air flow over the product in any way can cause the product to overheat.

This is the safety alert symbol. This symbol

alerts you to hazards that can kill or hurt you and

thers. The safety alert symbol and the words

o “DANGER” and “WARNING” will precede all safety messages. These words mean:

DANGER

You will instructions.

be killed or seriously injured if you donʼt follow

WARNING

You can instructions.

All safety messages will identify the hazard, tell you how to reduce the chance of injury, and tell you what can happen if the safety instructions are not followed.

INSTALLATION

be killed or seriously injured if you donʼt follow

Mounting

Mounting the product to a stable, rigid operating surface and using shock mounts will reduce noise and vibration.

Plumbing

Remove plugs from the IN and OUT ports. Connect

ith pipe and fittings that are the same size or larger

w than the productʼs threaded ports. Be sure to connect the intake and exhaust plumbing to the correct inlet and outlet ports. Ports will not support plumbing.

Accessories

Install gauges in the lines to monitor performance. A relief valve can be installed at the inlet or outlet, or both. Consult a Gast representative for performance limitations.

If operated in a dirt-contaminated atmosphere, a suitable filter should be used to ensure long service. For recommendations, contact a Gast representative.

Motor Control It is your responsibility to contact a qualified electrician and assure that the electrical installation is adequate and in conformance with all national and local codes and ordinances. The metal capacitor must be grounded.

Determine the correct overload setting required to protect the motor (see motor starter manufacturerʼs recommendations). Select fuses, motor protective switches or thermal protective switches to provide protection. Fuses act as short circuit protection for the motor, not as protection against overload. Incoming line fuses must be able to withstand the motorʼs starting current. Motor starters with thermal magnetic overload or circuit breakers protect motor from overload or reduced voltage conditions.

The wiring diagram supplied with the product provides required electrical information. Check that power source is correct to properly operate the dual-voltage motors.

Electrical Connection

This product must be properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided. If it will not

fit the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

If repair or replacement of the cord or plug is necessary, do not connect the grounding wire to either flat blade terminal. The wire with insulation that is green or green with yellow stripes is the grounding wire.

Check the condition of the power supply wiring. Do not permanently connect this product to wiring that is not in good condition or is inadequate for the requirements of this product.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, fire or electrical shock.

DC Wiring

AC Wiring

In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current. This product may be equipped with a power supply cord having a grounding wire with an appropriate grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

Model with a power supply cord:

This product must be grounded. For either 120-volt or 220/240-volt circuits connect power supply cord grounding plug to a matching grounded outlet. Do not use an adapter. (See above diagram.)

Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if you are not sure whether the product is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided. If it will not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

Model that is permanently wired:

This product must be connected to a grounded, metallic, permanent wiring system, or an equipment grounding terminal or lead on the product.

Power supply wiring must conform to all required safety codes and be installed by a qualified person. Check that supply voltage agrees with that listed on product nameplate.

Extension cords:

Use only a 3-wire extension cord that has a 3-blade grounding plug. Connect extension cord plug to a matching 3-slot receptacle. Do not use an adapter. Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. Check that the gage wire of the extension cord is the correct size wire to carry the current this product will draw.

An undersized cord is a potential fire hazard, and will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power causing the product to overheat. The following table indicates the correct size cord for length required and the ampere rating listed on the product nameplate. If in

doubt, use the next heavier gage cord. The smaller the gage number, the heavier the wire gage.
