CHAPTER 2
OPERATION
2-1 INTRODUCTION
2-1.1 GENERAL INFORMATION. Built-In safety features, which automatically shut
down the compressor if suction pressure is too low or excessive pressure is reached in the second
stage discharge line, are included in the system. The low pressure switch senses the pressure in
the suction line. The high pressure switch senses the pressure in the discharge line from the
aftercooler. Pressure gauges are utilized to measure suction pressure and first and second stage
discharge pressures. The gauges left to right are suction pressure, 1st stage pressure and 2nd
stage (or discharge) pressure. See Figure 1-1 and Figure 1-2.
2.2 CONTROLS & INDICATORS
2-2.1 ELECTRIC POWER. The motor controller must be wired to a source of power
by a competent electrician in accordance with local and federal codes. Make sure the
compressor package is properly grounded. See Electrical Schematic, Figure 3-3.
2-2.2 SAFETY VALVES. Pressure relief valves are provided after each stage. These
valves prevent an accidental over-pressurization of the system. The first stage relief valve is set
for 700 psig; the second stage is set for 2500 psig. The relief valves are mounted behind their
respective gauges. There is an inlet relief valve, set at 75 psig.
WARNING
Discharge pipes, fittings, and port areas can cause painful burns if
touched. Always exercise caution around the compressor when it
is running or has recently run.
2-2.3 PRESSURE SWITCHES. The compressor will automatically shutdown when the
discharge pressure reaches 2250 psig and will restart when it drops (to approximately 1900 psi).
Similarly, when the inlet pressure drops to 30 psig the compressor will stop, and
will re-start automatically when it rises again (to approximately 33 psig).
The actuation point of each switch may be adjusted although the re-set dead band,
the amount of pressure increase or decrease to reset the switch, is not adjustable.
2-2.4 PRESSURE INDICATORS. Pressure gauges measure the inlet pressure and the
first and second stage discharge pressures.
Sensing Point Normal Pressure Range
Inlet 30-70 Psig
First Stage Discharge 350-600 Psig
Second Stage Discharge 1500-2200 Psig
2-2.5 BACK PRESSURE VALVE. This valve is factory set at 1500 psi and needs no
adjustment. If necessary the valve can be adjusted by loosening the jam nut and turning the set
screw in or out with a hex wrench. The valve is located in the discharge piping prior to the
check valve. See Figure 1-1a.

CHAPTER 3
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
3-1 MAJOR COMPONENTS
3-1.1 COMPRESSOR ASSEMBLY. (Figure 3-1) The compressor is an air cooled
reciprocating, oil-less, two cylinder, two stage, single-acting, opposed design. The two compression
cylinders consist of a 1st stage piston of 1-1/4" diameter, and a 2nd stage 1/2" with a 2" piston stroke.
The 1st stage piston assembly is the heart of the compressor. The piston assembly has the 1st stage on the
bottom end and the 2nd stage on the top. The pistons for these cylinders use self - lubricating TFE or
Teflon® plastic rings. Linear motion is imparted to the piston assembly from the rotary crankshaft by
means of a connecting rod attached to the piston which alternately compresses in its respective cylinder.
The 1st stage rider rings guide one end of the assembly while the 1-3/4" diameter rider ring on the 2nd
stage end guides the other. The main bearings and connecting rod bearings are all sealed, grease packed
for life, and self-lubricating. The compressor valves are stainless steel reed type, normally closed and
pressure-activated open.
3-1.2 SENSING INDICATORS. Sensing devices are provided for safety and to aid the
operator in troubleshooting.
3-1.2.1 PRESSURE GAUGES. Pressure gauges are utilized to monitor suction pressure as
well as first and second stage discharge pressures.
3-1.3 RELIEF VALVES. Two pressure relief valves are located in the gas system, one after
each stage. There is also be a relief valve set at 75 psi in the suction piping. These serve to prevent
damage to the cylinders and gas lines should excessive pressure build up. The relief valves are preset to
700 and 2500 psi. When the pressure of the gas on the area of the relief valve disc exceeds the spring
load, the disc is lifted and the gas relieves to atmosphere. When the pressure is below the rating for the
valve, the disc remains seated and no gas escapes.
3-1.4 AIR COOLING SYSTEM. The compressor is provided with two stainless steel heat
exchangers mounted next to the crankcase: each cools the gas after it has been compressed in its
respective stage. Each heat exchanger is made up of stainless steel tubing coils and is sized for passive or
forced air cooling depending on compressor horsepower.
3-l.5 DRIVE MOTOR. A 1-1/2 HP motor is used to power the compressor through a belt
drive.
3-1.6 BACK PRESSURE VALVE. A back pressure valve is located in the discharge piping.
This valve is provided to maintain a minimum pressure of 1500 psi on the 2nd stage floating piston. The
pressure is required to hold this free floating piston against its piston rod so that the piston will not hit
against the valve stop in the 2nd stage head.
3-1.7 FILTER. An interstage filter keeps the system relatively free from small material
particles. The mesh size is 140 micron.
3-1.8 PRESSURE SWITCHES. Two pressure switches are provided. One for low suction
pressure, the other for high discharge pressure. The suction pressure switch is normally open and closes
when the inlet pressure is above 28 psig. If suction pressure drops below this point the compressor will
shutdown. The discharge pressure switch is normally closed. The compressor starts and stops
automatically under control of these switches.
