2.0 Safety Warnings
This equipment is used to provide breathing gas for the purpose of underwater life support. Read this manual in its entirety. Failure to heed the warnings and cautions contained in this document may result in severe injury or death.
The equipment you will be using to manufacture air will expose you to both low and high-pressure gas. Gas, even under moderate pressures, can cause extreme bodily harm. Never allow any gas stream to be directed at any part of your body.
Any pressurized hose can cause extreme harm if it comes loose or separates from its restraint (or termination) while under pressure and strikes any part of your body. Use appropriate care in making and handling all gas connections.
Never mix the Compressor Lubricant with other lubricants. If unsure of compressor lubricant remove all existing lubricant and replace with the proper breathing air compressor lubricant prior to use. The use of improper lubricants can lead to un-safe air quality, which may cause serious personal injury or death.

3.0 Safety And Operation Precautions
Because a Compressor is a piece of machinery with moving and rotating parts, the same precautions should be observed as with any piece of machi ner y of this type where carelessness in operations or maintenance is hazardous to personnel. In addition to the many obvious safety precautions, those listed below must also be observed:
1) Read all instructions completely before operating any compressor.
2) For installation, follow all local electrical and safety codes, as well as the National Electrical Code
(NEC) and the Occupational Safety and Hea lt h Administration (OSHA) standards.
3) Electric motors must be securely and adequately grounded. This can be accomplished by wiring with a
grounded, metal-clad raceway system to the compressor starter; by using a separate ground wire connected to the bare metal of the motor f r ame; or other suitable means.
4) Protect all power cables from coming in contact with sharp obj ects. Do not kink power cables and
never allow the cables to come in contact with oil, grease, hot surfaces, or chemicals.
5) Make certain that power source conforms to t he requirements of your equipment.
6) Pull main electrical disconnect switch and disconnect any separate control lines, if used, before
attempting to work or perform maint enance. “Tag Out” or “Lock Out” all power sour ces .
7) Do not attempt to remove any parts without f irst relieving the entire system of pressure.
8) Do not attempt to service any part while Sys t em is in an operational mode.
9) Do not operate the System at pressures in ex c ess of it s rating.
10) Do not operate compressor at s peeds in excess of its rating.
11) Periodically check all safety devices for proper operation. Do not cha nge pressure setting or restrict
operation in any way.
12) Be sure no tools, rags or lo ose parts are left on the Compressor System.
13) Do not use flammable solv ents for cleaning the Air Inlet Filters or ele m ent s and other parts.
14) Exercise cleanliness during maintenance a nd when making repairs. Keep dirt away from parts by
covering parts and exposed openings with clean cloth or Kraft paper.
15) Do not operate the compressor without guards, shields, and screens in place.
16) Do not install a shut-off valv e in t he compressor discharge line, unless a pressure relief valve, of
proper design and size, is installed in the line between the compressor unit and shut-off valve.
17) Do not operate in areas where there is a possibility of inhaling carbon monox ide, c arbon dioxide,
nitrogen, or flammable or toxic fumes.
18) Be careful when touching the exterior of a recently run electric, gasoline, or diesel motor - it may be
hot enough to be painful or cause injury. With modern motors this condition is normal if o perated at rated load - modern motors are built to operate at higher temperatures.
19) Inspect unit daily to observe and correct any unsafe operating conditio ns f ound.
20) Do not “play around” with compressed air, or direct air stream at body, this can cause injuries.
21) Compressed air from this machine absolutely must not be used for food process ing or breathing air
without the properly maintained downstream f ilters, purifiers, controls and periodi c air quality testing.
22) Always use an air pressure-r egulating device at the point of use, and do not us e air pressure greater
than marked maximum pressure.
23) Check hoses for weak or worn conditions before each use and make certain that all connections are
secure.
The user of any Compressor System manufactured by Nuvair is hereby wa r ned that failure to follow the preceding Safety and Operation Precautions can result in injuries or equipment damage. However, Nuvair does not state as fact or does not mean to imply that the preceding list of Safety and Operation Precautions is all-inclusive, and further that the obs ervance of this list will prevent all injuries or equipment damage.

4.0 Legal Precautions
It is highly recommended that a Dive log be maintained when using an Air Compressor on a job site to document the following information. This log must be of permanent binding sty le with no loose pages.
♦ Date and time of day ♦ Job Name & Number ♦ Supplier’s check of air quality plus signature and date ♦ MOD (Maximum Operating Depth) in user’s handwriting
Proper air analysis tested on a quarterly basis and comprehensive maintenance is the best way to assure proper, safe, and economical air production.
While Nuvair manufactures LP compressors for commercial diving use, Nuvair does not determine the regulations and or standards governing the use of “Air Compressor Systems”. Operators of Nuvair compressors should consult your local and or national government and or managing bodies t o determine the regulation obligations necessary to operate a Nuvair Compresso r for divers and breathing air use.
In the U.S. and Canada regulators include, but are not limited to: OSHA US Coast Guard US Military- Army, Navy, Marines, Air Force CSA International ANSI ACDE ADCI USACE ACDE AAUS NFPA
Some of the regulations in print pertain to the actual compressor equipment and others pert ain t o the Contractors and Dive Team.
You should be clear of any regulations, standards and requirements that are present for your use of a Nuvair Compressor before operating the compressor.
Nuvair can manufacture your Compressor package to meet any regulatory standards. Please provi de us with the standards you operate under and we can provide you with the proper equipment to meet those standards or regulations.

Do not carry out any maintenance tasks if the compressor has just shut down. Wait for the compressor to cool to avoid skin burns.
Special attention needs to be given to the arrangement of the four LP Air Filtration Elements and Bowls. Properly reinstall each Element and Bowl to the correct Housing. Improper sequence can cause damage to downstream components
14.0 LP Filtration (Optional Diver 3 stage Filtration Package)
Three stages of Hankison LP filtration are used to produce Grade D air:
1) Particle Removal to 1 micron
2) Coalescing & Water/Oil Vapor Removal to 0.01 micron
3) Oil Vapor Removal to 0.003 PPM
14.1 Filtration Inspection
Open each Filter and inspect as follows:
1. Inspect Bowl for the presence of moisture. A high level of moisture build-up in the HF7 or HF5 Filter indicates improper operation of auto-drain floats. Any evidence of m oisture in t he HF1 Filter indicates the air is not cooling properly and moisture is not properly being removed. Excess moisture will prevent the final filter from operating properly.
2. Inspect Elements for any unusual degradation or wetness. Element degradation can indicate more serious problems. Contact Nuvair for assistance.

Do Not Use
The interior of the Filter Bowls can be cleaned with a diluted solution of Simple GreenTM and flushed thoroughly with clean water. This will assist to prolong the life of the element, bowl, and auto drain.
14.3 Changing Air Intake Filtration
Inspect and or change the air intake Filter Elements every 40 hours or once per year. If the Compressor System is operated in high humidity or a dusty dirty environment, Filter Elements must be changed more often. Inspect elements periodically to determine if the elements should be changed sooner than recommended.
14.4 Air Intake Extension
The air intake filter housings are mounted on couplings. In the event that the compressor will be used in a windy environment that may cause the diesel engine exhaust to be blown into the intake filters it may be necessary to extend the elements vertically to prevent engine exhaust from entering t he elements. Reinforced hose tubing can be purchased from Nuvair to extend the height of the elements. By using a Nuvair PRO CO monitor you will notice changes in CO immediately and the use of a CO monitor is highly recommended by Nuvair.

NUVAIR makes no warranty with respect to these OEM components, and only warrants the workmanship that NUVAIR has employed in the installation or use of any OEM component. This warranty is not transferable.
NUVAIR will, at it’s discretion and according to the terms as set forth within, replace or repair any materials which fail under normal use and service and do not exhibit any signs of improper maintenance, misuse, accident, alteration, weather damage, tampering, or use for any other than the intended purpose. Determination of failure is the responsibility of NUVAIR, which will work together with the customer to adequately address warranty issues. When any materials are repaired or replaced during the warranty period, they are warranted only for the remainder of the original warranty period. This warranty shall be void and NUVAIR shall have no responsibility to repair or replace damaged materials resulting directly or indirectly from the use of repair or replacement parts not approved by NUVAIR.
A warranty registration card, supplied with system documentation, must be filled out and submitted to NUVAIR for the warranty to be in full effect. If the warranty registration card is not received within thirty (30) days of installation, the thirty-six (36) month warranty will begin with the date of shipment from NUVAIR.
Maintenance Items:
Any materials which are consumed, or otherwise rendered not warrantable due to processes applied to them, are considered expendable and are not covered under the terms of this policy. This includes maintenance and consumable items listed as part of a suggested maintenance program included with system documentation.
Return Policy:
Application for warranty service can be made by contacting NUVAIR during regular business hours and requesting a Return Material Authorization number. Materials that are found to be defective must be shipped, freight pre-paid, to the NUVAIR office in Oxnard, California. Upon inspection and determination of failure, NUVAIR shall exercise its options under the terms of this policy. Warranty serviced materials will be returned to the customer via NUVAIR’s preferred shipping method, at NUVAIR’s expense. Any expedited return shipping arrangements to be made at customer’s expense must be specified in advance.
Limitation of Warranty and Liability:
Repair, replacement or refund in the manner and within the time provided shall constitute NUVAIR’S sole liability and the Purchaser’s exclusive remedy resulting from any nonconformity or defect. NUVAIR shall not in any event be liable for any damages, whether based on contract, warranty, negligence, strict liability or otherwise, including without limitation any consequential, incidental or special damages, arising with respect to the equipment or its failure to operate, even if NUVAIR has been advised of the possibility thereof. NUVAIR makes no other warranty or representation of any kind, except that of title, and all other warranties, express or implied, including warranties of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose, are hereby expressly disclaimed. No salesman or other representative of NUVAIR has authority to make any warranties.
