Description
The Powerex medical system package is designed to provide medical breathing air for hospital and medical institutes.
This system meets NFPA 99 requirements for Level 1 breathing air.
OILLESS OPT/OPS COMPRESSOR
The Powerex oilless reciprocating air compressor has advanced compressor technology through the development of a completely oilless compressor. The Powerex reciprocating compressor is provided in duplex, triplex or quadplex configurations with head unloaders to provide start, stop or continuous operation. Composite piston technology and continuously lubricating bearings provide oil-free air reliability for years to come.
RECEIVER TANK
The ASME, National Board registered air receiver is provided in sizes from 120 to 240 gallons. Each receiver is rated at 200 PSIG working pressure. Receivers are provided with sight glass and moisture drain (manual or automatic).
CONTROL PANEL
The NEMA 12 control panel is provided in duplex, triplex or quadplex configurations and meets NFPA 99 requirements for medical air. Primary voltage is protected by fusing or circuit breaker. Control transformer power is 110 volts and protected by secondary fusing. Pressure control switches signal the compressors on and off cycle and signal lag compressor(s) to come on if air demand increases. A lag, lag pressure switch or transducer signals a light and audible alarm warning of a low pressure condition which is factory set at 40 PSIG. An acknowledge button is provided for start condition and maintenance. The adjustable timer alternator cycles each compressor so equal run time is maintained. This alternator is factory set to alternate the compressors every 10 minutes. The exterior of the control panel is accessible through the door. The panel disconnects on/off/auto switches run lights, power on lights, run hourmeters, lag pressure light, high
temperature light and overload reset. This control panel is UL listed.
DEW POINT MONITOR
The Powerex dew point monitor provides indication of dew point and temperature. It’s microprocessor controlled with user programmable output range, alarm and calibration. The NEMA enclosure is protected by a polymer viewing cover.
CARBON MONOXIDE MONITOR/ALARM
The carbon monoxide monitor provides warning to the user of air-supplied respirators alarming and metering the presence of carbon monoxide. The monitor is provided in a NEMA 12 enclosure. In addition to audio/visual alarm, the meter displays the concentration of CO in the compressed air. The meter operates from a 110 VAC supply. Alarm points are set a 10PPM (low) and 20 PPM (high).
AIR COOLED AFTERCOOLER
Four models of beltguard aftercoolers sized to provide an approach of 20°F. Constructed of copper tubing and metal headers for a rugged construction.
AIR DRYER (REFRIGERATED OR DESICCANT)
The Powerex air drying system provides air at 38°F at 100 PSIG for refrigerated units and -40°F dew point for desiccant dryer systems. Each system is connected with bypass capability.
The refrigerated compressed air dryer(s) are noncycling, direct expansion type, using R-22 refrigerant,
CFC free. A hot gas bypass valve is provided to maintain 38°F evaporator temperature. The dryer is selfregulating for large load swings. Heat exchangers are made of copper tube construction and insulated.
The regenerative desiccant consists of two (dual) towers filled with desiccant. Each tower is switched on and off stream, alternating the air system stream and then being regenerated. Dry purge air pulls moisture from the desiccant and carries the moisture out of the air.
MEDICAL FILTER SYSTEM
The medical filter system consists of a duplex series of filters and pressure regulators. Air enters the system and is directed to either bank of filets controlled by ball valve. The first stage filter removes solids and liquid particles. The next stage of filters remove submicronic particles and aerosols. The third and final filter is carbon activated to remove unpleasant odors. Maximum operating temperature is 125°F and maximum pressure is 150 PSIG.
CONDENSATE DRAIN VALVE
A condensate drain valve must be installed on any tank. This valve removes liquid that collects during compressor operation.
Drain liquid from tank daily.

Oilless Oilless Reciprocating Air Compressor Pumps
Please read and save these instructions. Read carefully before attempting to assemble, install, operate or maintain the product described. Protect yourself and others by observing all safety information. Failure to comply with instructions could result in personal injury and/or property damage! Retain instructions for future reference.
Descriptions
GENERAL
Powerex utilizes cutting-edge compressor technology to provide the most advanced oilless reciprocating air compressor in the industry. The Powerex reciprocating compressor is available in single and two stage models. Continuously lubricated, sealed bearings provide oilfree compressed air and long compressor life. The onboard fan, finned flywheel and temperature reducing composite piston create lower operating temperatures.
DRY TYPE INLET FILTER
The inlet filter on the oilless compressor assures 99% of particulate free air, down to 10 micron, is admitted to the unit. Change every 2500 hours or more often in dirty locations (See Figure 5).
PISTON AND PISTON RINGS
The Powerex oilless reciprocating compressor pistons are made of a highstrength, self-lubricating composite using the most advanced technology available. These heat reducing pistons eliminate the effect of excessive grease leakage at the wrist pin bearing.
Teflon® rings reduce wear and provide self lubrication. Piston rings should be replaced every 10,000 hours of operation (See Figure 12).
BEARING REGREASE
The wrist pin bearings of the OPS and OPT oilless compressors are needle bearings protected by two outer lip seals. This needle bearing becomes impacted and requires regreasing at 5,000 hours (See Figure 15).
BEARING SEALS
The wrist pin bearing lip seals prevent the lubricating grease from leaking from the bearing area. The two lip seals on each connecting rod require replacement every 10,000 hours (See Figure 1622 or page 9).
Installation
INSTALLATION SITE
1.The oilless compressor must be located in a clean, well lit and well ventilated area.
2.The area should be free of excessive dust, toxic or flammable gases and moisture.
3.Never install the compressor where the ambient temperature is higher than 105o F or where humidity is high.
! DANGER
Breathable Air Warning
This compressor/pump is NOT equipped and should NOT be used “as is” to supply breathing quality air. For any application of air for human consumption, you must fit the compressor/pump with suitable in-line safety and alarm equipment. This additional equipment is necessary to properly filter and purify the air to meet minimal specifications for Grade D breathing as described in Compressed Gas Association Commodity Specification G 7.1 - 1966, OSHA 29 CFR 1910. 134, and/or Canadian Standards Associations (CSA).
DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES
In the event the compressor/pump is used for the purpose of breathing air application and proper in-line safety and alarm equipment is not simultaneously used, existing warranties are void, and Powerex disclaims any liability whatsoever for any loss, personal injury or damage.

5.If necessary, use metal shims or leveling pads to level the compressor. Never use wood to shim the compressor.
VENTILATION
1.If the oilless compressor is located in a totally enclosed room, an exhaust fan with access to outside air must be installed.
2.Never restrict the cooling fan exhaust air.
3.Never locate the compressor where hot exhaust air from other heat generating units may be pulled into the unit.
WIRING
Refer to the general safety guidelines manual. All electrical hook-ups must be performed by a qualified electrician. Installations must be in accordance with local and national electrical codes.
Use solderless terminals to connect the electric power source.
PIPING
Refer to the general safety guidelines manual.
1.Make sure the piping is lined up without being strained or twisted when assembling the piping for the compressor.
2.Appropriate expansion loops or bends should be installed at the compressor to avoid stresses caused by changes in hot and cold conditions.
3.Piping supports should be anchored separately from the compressor to reduce noise and vibration.
4.Never use any piping smaller than the compressor connection.
5.Use flexible hose to connect the outlet of the compressor to the piping so that the vibration of the compressor does not transfer to the piping. Make
sure the flexible hose is rated for proper pressure and temperature before installing.
SAFETY VALVES
Tank mounted compressors are shipped from the factory with safety valves installed in the tank manifold. The flow capacity of the safety valve is equal to or greater than the capacity of the compressor.
1.The pressure setting of the safety valve must be no higher than the maximum working pressure of the tank.
2.Safety valves should be placed ahead of any possible blockage point in the system, i.e. shutoff valve.
3.Avoid connecting the safety valve with any tubing or piping.
4.Manually operate the safety valve every six months to avoid sticking or freezing.
HOURMETER
The hourmeter on the oilless compressor indicates the actual number of hours the unit has been in operation. The hourmeter is also used to determine maintenance and service timing.
An hourmeter must be installed with every oilless compressor.
CONDENSATE DRAIN VALVE
A condensate drain valve must be installed on any tank to allow removal of the liquid which will collect during compressor operation.

BEFORE START UP
1.Make sure all safety warnings, labels and instructions have been read and understood before continuing.
2.Remove any shipping materials, brackets, etc.
3.Confirm that the electric power source and ground have been firmly connected.
4.Be sure all pressure connections are tight.
5.Check to be certain all safety relief valves, etc., are correctly installed.
6.Check that all fuses, circuit breakers, etc., are the proper size.
7.Make sure the inlet filter is properly installed.
8.Confirm that the drain valve is closed.
9.Visually check the rotation of the compressor pump. If the rotation is incorrect, have a qualified electrician correct the motor wiring.
START-UP AND OPERATION
1.Follow all the procedures under “Before start-up” before attempting operation of the compressor.
2.Switch the electric source breaker on.
3.Open the tank discharge valve completely.
4.Check that the compressor operates without excessive vibration, unusual noises or leaks.
5.Close the discharge valve completely.
6.Check the discharge pressure. Also make sure the air pressure rises to the designated pressure setting by checking the discharge pressure gauge.
7.Check the operation of the pressure switch or the pilot valve for continuous run units by opening the stop valve and confirming the compressor starts or reloads as pressure drops.
Switch the breaker OFF if the compressor is not to be used for a long period of time.
