Compressed air and electricity can be dangerous. Before undertaking any work on the compressor,
ensure that the electrical supply has been isolated and the compressor has been relieved of all
pressure. Use proper Lock Out Tag Out procedures to ensure you and your coworkers safety.
Keep all parts of the body and any hand-held tools or other conductive objects, away from exposed
live parts of the compressor electrical system. Maintain dry footing, stand on insulating surfaces and
do not contact any other portion of the compressor when making adjustments or repairs to exposed
live parts of the compressor electrical system. Close and lock all access doors when the compressor
is left unattended.
Do not use extinguishers intended for Class A or Class B fires on electrical fires. Use only
extinguishers suitable for class BC or class ABC fires. Attempt repairs only in clean, dry, well lighted
and ventilated areas. Connect the compressor only to electrical systems that are compatible with its
electrical characteristics and that are within it’s rated capacity.
WARNING
Imposing a normal or emergency stop on the compressor will only relieve pressure upstream
of the minimum pressure valve on top of the separator tank. If maintenance work is required
downstream of this valve, ensure that all pressure is relieved at the process vent point
external to the compressor This state is advised by selecting PACKAGE DISCHARGE
PRESSURE on the control panel.

Overview of the Eiger Control System
The S3 Intellisys controller is used to control the operations of the air compressor. The following
troubleshooting guide will allow you to troubleshoot the compressor components. The controller will come in
two standard configurations, one is STD (standard) the other is ENH (enhanced). The difference is the options
that are enabled in the software of the controller when the compressor is ordered. If the compressor is ordered
with a standard controller the compressor can be upgraded to an enhanced unit with an upgrade kit CCN
23083637. The upgrade kit includes instruction for retrofitting a standard controller to an enhanced controller.
The controller has 3 analog inputs, 8 digital inputs, 6 relay outputs, 1 analog output and two serial 485
communication ports. The controller has a 24VAC input while the internal power supply is a 24 VDC unit that
must sustain a 40 ms power loss before resetting. The S3 controls all aspects of machine operation including
starting, stopping, loading and unloading, safety shutdowns, and user interface as well as compressor remote
connectivity to other devices.
This controller is different than other Intellisys controllers in that the relay outputs are not solid state triacs,
they are relays that are turned on an off by an internal 24 VDC power supply controlled by the internal
software. There will be no voltage leakage as you find with triacs. So fault finding will be easer due to fact that
if a relay output is on or off due to a problem with the controller simply replace the controller, there are no user
serviceable parts. The analog output (X06 term 1-2) for the PORO horn ( 4-20 Ma output ) simply energizes
the solid state relay when the unit starts after a power outage.
A user interface shows the status of the compressor while it is running. The display uses ISO symbols to
convey information to the operator and it will be necessary to learn the symbols as well as the menu structure to
troubleshoot the compressor. Pass codes are required to enter the Set up Access screen, and Fault History
(0000), and Advanced Set Up (0101). These codes are provided in this manual and the operator’s manuals. This
troubleshooting guide also includes the pass code for the Factory Setup that is to only be used by IR service
technicians and not given to customers (Code is 1954). The next pages give an overview of the buttons on the
controller as well as the ISO symbols and software navigation.

GENERAL OVERVIEW OF THE COMPRESSOR
The compressor is an electric motor driven, single stage screw compressor, complete with
accessories piped, wired and base plate mounted. It is a totally self contained air compressor
package. The standard compressor is designed to operate in an ambient range of 2_C to 46_C (35_F
to 115_F). The standard maximum temperature of 46_C (115_F) is applicable up to an elevation of
1000m (3280ft) above sea level. Above this altitude significant reductions in ambient temperature are
required if a standard motor is to be used. Compression in the screw type air compressor is created
by the meshing of two (male & female) helical rotors.
The air/coolant mixture discharges from the compressor into the separation system. This system
removes all but a few PPM of the coolant from the discharge air. The coolant is returned to the
cooling system and the air passes to the after cooler and out of the compressor through the moisture
separator (optional).
Air is pulled into the machine by the cooling fan and is pushed through the combined cooler / after
cooler. By cooling the discharge air and passing it through the separator, much of the water vapor
which is naturally present in the air, can be removed.
The coolant system consists of a sump, cooler, thermostatic valve and a filter. When the unit is
operating, the coolant is pressurized and forced to the compressor bearings. The compressor load
control system is automatic ’On−Off line’. This is accomplished by the Intellisys S3 Controller
monitoring the discharge pressure and operating the SV1 solenoid valve. When the load valve is on
(Loading) the blow down solenoid valve SV3 is off and this logic reverses when the unit unloads. The
compressor will operate to maintain a set discharge line pressure and is provided with an auto restart
system for use in plants where the air demand varies widely. Panel instrumentation is provided to
indicate the compressor operating conditions and general status.
CAUTION
LOW DEMAND APPLICATIONS
During periods of low demand, the compressor may not reach its normal operating
temperature. Sustained operation at low demand can result in the build up of condensate in
the coolant. If this situation occurs, the lubricating characteristics of the coolant can be
impaired which may lead to damage of the compressor.
THE COMPRESSOR SHOULD BE ALLOWED AMPLE LOADED RUNNING TIME.

Analog Inputs Comments
STD Pressure Input Calibration - Initiates an automaticcalibration routine for reading and
correcting the pressure transducer inputs with a known zero Psi input. A zero offset calibration should
be performed by first the user verifying the pressure applied to the pressure transducer is in fact 0
PSI. Initiating this calibration routine will read and store a new zero offset value for the analog inputs.
This value is used as an offset for all future pressure readings. The display (UI) should indicate to the
user that a zero Psi reading has been successfully made and stored for the new zero PSI offset value
by displaying a successful message or icon. If when reading the analog input for the 0 PSI value, the
actual reading is greater than +/- 10% of the scale, the calibration will not be performed for that
particular sensor and the previous pressure offset value will be retained. A Sensor Calibration Failure
will be displayed indicating which input has failed and also adding an entry into the Alarm Log. If the
Developed Markets features are enabled, the Sump Pressure transducer will be present and should
be calibrated along with the Package Discharge Pressure transducer. Span calibration is not
accessible by the customer. The calibration is done through the advanced set up menu as shown in
STD Star Delta Logic Using Two Digital Outputs - Combine 1M / 2M on one common output, a
normally closed electrical interlock (KM3-2) from the 1S (KM3) contactor keeps the 2M (KM2)
contactor from energizing anytime the 1S (KM3) contactor is energized.
Electrical interlocks are wired such that when the 1S (KM3) output is de-energized at Star Delta
transition time causing the 1S (KM3) contactor to open, the 1S normally closed interlock (KM3-2) falls
back to the closed position energizing the 2M (KM2) contactor.
A second electrical interlock from the 1S (KM3) contactor is wired in series with the 1M (KM1)
contactor to insure the 1S (KM3) is pulled in before the 1M (KM1) will be energized. An interlock from
the 1M (KM1) contactor is used to seal around the 1S (KM3-1) contact to allow the 1M (KM1) contact
to remain energized when the 1S (KM3 contact is de-energized at the Star Delta transition.
STDAllen Bradley SMC-3 Soft Start Logic Using Two Digital Outputs
Outputs X03-2 and X03-3 can be configured to operate an Allen Bradley SMC-3 soft starter. The
operating sequence of X03-2 and X03-3, when the soft starter starting method is selected, follows.
X03-3 energizes immediately at the start command. 1/2 seconds later X03-2 energizes. Both outputs
maintain an energized state while the motor is given a run signal. When the motor is given a stop
signal the operating sequence of X03-2 and X03-3 are reversed from the starting sequence.
