1. WATER CIRCUIT
1.1. General
Water is used in the drill rig for two main purposes: for flushing the drill hole and for various cooling
operations. The water is conveyed to the bottom of the hole through the aperture in the drill rod. As
it flows upwards, the flushing water conveys with it the cuttings while simultaneously cooling the
drilling equipment. Before flowing to the drill rod, the water runs through the oil cooler, thus cooling
the drilling oil.

Before opening the shut-off valve (507.02), make sure that the mud separator strainer of the shut-off
valve has been cleaned. By opening the shut-off valve (507.02), you are able to feed flushing water
to the rig.
Make sure that the control switch of the water booster pump (501) is in the I position, which means
that the water pump starts automatically at almost the same time as the powerpack is started.
Select the desired flushing pressure using the pressure reducing valve (506). The pressure can be
read from the pressure gauge (510.06). The pressure switch (510.05) and the pressure gauge
(510.06) are connected after the pressure reducing valve (506). From the pressure reducing valve
(506) the pressure is directed to the oil coolers (315).
From the coolers the water flows to the pressure-controlled water-flushing valves (510.02). The
flushing valves engage water flushing automatically when percussion is started.
An optional flow switch (511) for the flushing system is available for each drilling unit. When the flow
falls below the value set for the switch, the anti-jamming automatics engage.
A system with double flushing has two flushing valves, a water flushing valve (510.02) connected to
the water circuit and an air flushing valve (510.01) connected to the pneumatic circuit. Water flushing
operates as in the circuit described above, but after the hole is finished it can also be blown clean
with compressed air.

Restricted water flow causes flushing and cooling problems. The most common reason for the drop
of pressure is a blocked mud separator. This is why the separator must be cleaned at least once a
week. If the conditions change, start by cleaning the separator more often and determine the correct
cleaning interval based on experience.
Cleaning procedure:
1. Open the shut--off valve (1).

2. Open the drain valve (3) of the mud separator
(2) enough to allow the dirt in the strainer (4)
to come out.
3. Close the drain valve (3) of the mud separator.

strainer (4). 2

Water flows to the shut-off valve through a hose. When the shut-off valve is opened, the water flows
through the mud separator to the pressure reducing valve and on to the water pump.
The pressure reducing valve is used to lower the feed pressure to the pump to approximately 1-7 bar
if the pressure in the mine water system is higher.
The pressure reducing valve operates as follows: The pressure to be adjusted is applied to the valve
inlet side both on the upper surface (A) and lower surface (B) of the disc valve. These two surfaces
are in balance, so the pressure applied to them does not cause the spool (3) to move in either
direction. The spring (2) force causes the spool movement downward. The disc valve opens, allowing
the pressure into the outlet side channel. However, through the internal gate, the same pressure is
also applied to the bottom surface (C) of the larger upper piston, thus creating the force that pushes
the piston upward. The flow continues until the force pushing the piston upward, caused by the
pressure, exceeds the spring force, and the disc valve closes.
As the pressure on the outlet side drops, the spring force becomes dominant again, and the disc
valve opens, thus opening the flow route, and the pressure below the larger piston becomes dominant,
and so on. The pressure is thus increased by tightening the spring (2) and decreased by loosening
it.
If the pressure on the output side of the pressure limiter fluctuates substantially or changes
significantly in either direction, the likely cause is leakage from the valve seals. Replace the seals.
Disassembling the valve is started by loosening the locking ring (6) and screwing the spring
adjustment screw (4) off the spring chamber (1). Be careful when removing the adjustment screw as
the spring (2) is under stress. Remove the spring chamber ball (12), the end ring (11), and the spring
(2). Unfasten the fastening screws (14) and remove the spring chamber (1), piston (13), piston seal
(20) and large piston (21). Next, remove the bottom cover (5) below the valve. The cover is attached
to the valve frame with threads. Remove the spool (3), disc retaining nut (17), washer (16), valve disc
(9), disc valve frame (22), O-ring (7), and seal (8).
Replace the O-ring (7), seal (8), and valve disc (9). Also replace the piston seal (20).
Reassemble in reverse order. Replace seals 12, 18 and 19, or use a suitable sealant glue to seal the
bottom cover (19) and spring chamber (3).
When disassembling the valve, take care not to lose the spring

The arrows on the base of the pump indicate the direction of flow of the water. If protective caps are
installed to the pump’s hose connectors for transport or storage, remove them before connecting the
hoses. Always check that the hoses are clean on the inside.
Before starting the pump, refer to manual Water booster pump; Operation and maintenance.
The OW21, OW30, OW45 and OW60 hydraulic oil coolers are used with Sandvik Mining and
Construction Oy’s hydraulic powerpacks. The oil coolers differ from each other only in size and
efficiency.
The working principle of the cooler is ”from oil to water”. The cooling water flows inside the cooler in
three stages so that it changes direction twice at the cooler’s end flange. Because of this arrangement,
the cooler does not drain completely through the bottom plug but pressured air blown through the
flow--circuit is needed for assistance.

5 By-pass valve
The flow path of the water that takes care of the oil cooling opens normally automatically when the
drilling hydraulics’ percussion circuit is actuated. In certain cases cooling may be needed also during
drilling pauses, but the valve that is responsible for the automatic flushing is closed. Cooling can be
enhanced by opening the by-pass valve (5) connected to the oil cooler, in which case a nonstop water
flow (= cooling flow) is produced.
In this case the volume flow is not as great as when using the normal course of flow, but this only
serves the purpose of additional cooling. However, it must be noted that if the available water flow is
limited, the by--pass running can cause deficiency in the flushing flow. This manifests itself as a large
decrease in the pressure of the flushing valve, depending on whether the drilling is going on or not.
Fitting the water hoses the other way around results in a less

efficient cooling.
1.10.2. Maintenance
If the oil temperature increases or the pressure of the flushing valves falls, itmay be a sign that the
oil cooler needs cleaning. There may also be other reasons for a decrease in the pressure, so the
cause for it must always be clarified.
If it has been ascertained that the cooler is blocked and if the cooler model is dismountable, drain
both the water and the oil from the cooler unit and detach the hoses before cleaning.
The best way to clean the water circuit--side surfaces of the tubing (the inner surfaces of the tubes)
is pushing a 3 mm steel rod into the tube in the opposite direction of the water flow during cooling.
After cleaning, remove all impurities carefully from both surfaces of the tubing. This can be done for
example by first washing the unit carefully and then blowing any loose materials and the water off the
tube surfaces with compressed air.
Be careful not to over-tighten the bolts. The tightening torque
(37 Nm) of the cooler end fastening bolts should be complied
with so that the ends do not bend and get damaged by excessive
tightness.

Function
When water (or air) pressure is present in the input side of the valve but drilling is not on, the water
flow passages are closed. The cooling water for the oil coolers also circulates through this valve and,
thus, cooling also operates only during drilling.
When percussion is switched on from the control panel, the pressure affects not only the actual
percussion circuit but also the control side of the flushing valve. The control pressure pushes the
valve spool (2) so that the flow passage through the valve opens.
When percussion is switched off, the pressure in the control side of the flushing valve also drops, the
spring (3) pushes the spool back into the resting position, and the flow passage is closed.
With regards to water pressure, make sure that the pressure level is sufficient and also that the
amount of pressure fluctuation remains reasonably small. Large pressure fluctuations usually indicate
that there is an unnecessary restriction in the line, such as an excessively narrow input hose or a
clogged oil filter.
1. Disconnect hoses.
2. Plug control pressure oil hose.
3. Remove nipple (4) with adapter, and pull out spring (3) and spool (2).
4. Blow passages of the valve block clean with compressed air.
5. Clean spool and install new sealing rings.

The water pressure switch (S422) is set to 2.8 bar, with a time delay of four seconds. If the pressure
remains below 2.8 bar for more than four seconds, the water pump and drilling will cease
automatically.
Close the water circuit using the shut-off valve. When the water pressure drops below 2.8 bar, the
pressure switch engages and lights the warning indicator H601 (water pressure low) on the QN panel.
Now press button S505. The pressure switch is operating properly if the warning indicator does not
go off. Open the shut-off valve. The pressure switch is operating properly if the warning indicator
H601 goes off as the pressure exceeds 2.8 bar.

DANGER
Before the flushing/blowing procedure, make sure that nobody
is in front of the rock drill or the drill rod.
1. Disconnect the rig's water hose from the supply line and open the rig's main valve (8).
2. Turn the three-way valve (4) into the position where air can enter the flushing circuit (handle turned
towards pressurized air inlet) and start the compressor. Water is now expelled from the pump's
inlet line.
3. Close the rig's main valve (8) and open the drain valves of the oil coolers. Water is now drained
from the coolers.
4. Perform following procedure for each boom separately:
TPC controlled rigs
• Close the cooler drain valve, and select the reaming operation by turning the selector (S72) to
the right. The flushing valve opens when you engage rotation (joystick S74 to the left). Select
flushing (flushing selector (S73) to the middle position). Continue blowing until only air flows
out of the rock drill.
THC controlled rigs
• Close the oil cooler drain valves. The flushing switch shall be in the water flushing position (pull
lever backwards). Water flushing is on. Continue draining until plain air comes out of the rock
drill. Powerpacks must be running in order to provide control pressure to the valves.
5. Perform following procedure:
TPC controlled rigs
• Blow water out of the line between the air and water valves by turning air flushing on for a
moment (S73 to the right).
THC controlled rigs
• Turn the air flushing valves on for a while (push the lever forward) to expel water from the line
between the air and water valves. Powerpacks must be running in order to provide control
pressure to the valves.
6. Stop the compressor and turn the three-way valve (4) to the position where the filling line is
connected to the flushing line (handle toward the filling cap).
7. Open the filling cap (6), and pour 100% -antifreeze agent into the line. Close the filling cap (6).
8. Open the main shut-off valve (8). Turn the three-way valve (4) to the position where compressed
air is in connection to the flushing line, and start the compressor.
9. Repeat steps 6-8 until the mixture of air and antifreeze comes out of the rock drill or the end of
the drill rod.
1.16. Troubleshooting
2. AIR CIRCUIT
2.1. General
Pressurized air is taken from the compressor mounted on the rig or from the air line of the drilling site.
Shank lubrication is very important for the operation of the rock drill. Insufficient lubrication causes
damages to the rotation mechanism and the shank of the rock drill. This is why the drilling is
automatically prevented if the shank lubrication is insufficient; a pressure switch detects low air
pressure and stops drilling.
Neglecting the shank lubrication is certain to damage the
machine.
2.2. Safety
WARNING
PERSONAL INJURY HAZARD!
Moving machine could cause death or severe injury.
Maintenance and repairwork should only be done when the rig
is out of operation. Make sure that it cannot be accidentally
started (open the main power switch, for instance) during the
repairwork. Unauthorized persons are not allowed near the rig
during the repair work.
WARNING
SKIN INJECTION HAZARD!
High-pressure hydraulic fluid can penetrate the skin, causing
severe injury.
Do not try to locate a leak on a hydraulic hose with your hand!
Use a piece of cardboard or equivalent. If hydraulic fluid
penetrates your skin, seek medical advice immediately!
WARNING
IGNORING INSTRUCTIONS HAZARD!
To avoid death or injury you MUST read, understand and obey
following instructions before operating the equipment.
Service and adjustment procedures must be carried out by
personnel with specialized operation and service training.
Carefully plan your work beforehand to minimise risk of damage
or injury.

The filtered and pressurized air flows either straight or through the air cleaner (609) into the air circuit.
The pressurized air for shank lubrication flows through the water separator (702). The separator has
a drain valve (702.01) to let the water out. The valve can be left slightly open to blow continuously
the water out.
From the water separator (702) the pressurized air flows to the central lubricator SLU. The purpose
of the shank lubricator is to provide sufficient lubrication for the rock drill shank. The lubricating oil is
mixed with the air that carries it to the rock drill. For removal of the water the shank lubricator is
provided with the drain valve.
The air can be taken through the air flushing valve (510.01) to blow the drilled hole clean or to flush
the hole if the air mist flushing (option) is used. To function properly, the air mist flushing usually
requires extra pressurized air from the mine air network.
The pressurized air can also be taken into the circuit from the mine own air lines. The air flows through
shut-off valve to the separate air cleaner IP5 (609) which cleans the air and removes the possible
water content before the air enters into the circuit. The IP5 is equipped with a water drain valve
(609.01). Otherwise the circuit operates as described in chapter ”Pressurized air from compressor”.
The shank lubrication is one of the most important functions affecting the operating condition of the
rock drill. Therefore, the air used in the shank lubrication system must be sufficiently clean. When the
rig’s own compressor is used the pressurized air is filtered. If, however, the air comes from an air
network at the drilling site, a separate air cleaner (IP 5) must be used. It is installed in the line before
the central lubricator. The IP 5 not only cleans the air from impurities but also separates water from
the air.
The IP 5 operates with the cyclone principle. All of the air that flows through the cleaner is cleaned.
The impurities and the water separated by the cleaner remain in the bottom of the cleaner. The
manually operated valve at the bottom is opened to drain the cleaner.

Some machines are possible to equip with an extra air receiver (604). This receiver is then mainly
used for hole blowing. The loading speed of the receiver can be regulated using a restrictor (611).
Using a pressure relief valve (604.01), the maximum receiver pressure has been restricted to 8 bar.

Function
Air is activated on by pushing the control lever of the flushing control valve to the forward position.
Now the pilot pressure is able to reach the end of the air valve (1) spool (2). The spool (2) moves to
the left and allows the air flow through the air valve (1) and through the non-return valve (6) ahead
to the rock drill.
The air flow is closed by centralizing the control lever of the flushing control valve. Now the pilot
pressure drops on the end of the spool (2) and the spring (3) pushes the spool (2) to the right
preventing the air flow through the air valve.
The screw compressor is used to produce the compressed air required for drilling, unless an external
compressed air network is used. Inside the compressor, an electric motor rotates rotors that are
geared together and which compress the air to the desired pressure.

The operating switch (S502) has three positions (S502, located in the SW panel of the cabin/safety
canopy).
Position 0
Compressor not running. Pressure monitoring is activated also then when compressor is not running.
Position 0 is used when the required air is taken from the mine network so that no compressor is
needed.
Position 1
Normal position, compressor running. As the first powerpack starts, compressor will start 1 second
after that, and pressure monitoring is activated. With powerpack already running, the turning of the
switch to position 1 will start the compressor. The compressor is switched off when the powerpacks
are stopped.
Position S (non-locking)
If no powerpacks are running, turning the switch to the non-locking S position will start the compressor
alone (manual control for production of compressed air).
Air pressure control is NOT activated when the compressor is
running alone.
Turn the switch to position 0 for stopping the compressor. When the compressor is in manual control,
the starting of powerpacks is not possible. For starting powerpacks you must first switch off the
manual control of the compressor. In case of power failure, or if the emergency stop button is
depressed, the compressor will not start again automatically but needs to be restarted.
The QN panel has the following indicator lights for the compressor: green “compressor running”
indicator light H618, red “compressor overload” indicator light H605, and red “compressor overheat”
indicator light H604. Activation of the overload and temperature controls of the compressor will stop
the powerpacks, the water pump, and the compressor.
- Stop the compressor and check that the oil separator unit is not pressurised. After the compressor
is stopped, the oil separator unit is drained by the out-blow unit – wait approximately 2 minutes.
- Turn the power off and make sure the compressor cannot be started.
- Close the shut-off valve between the network and the compressor.
- Open the safety valve cap 4–5 turns.
The operation must be checked at least once a year, as recommended by the manufacturer.
All safety valve adjustment and repair tasks must be performed
NOTE! by trained professionals (take into consideration local
regulations).
Visually check the hoses. If visible damage is detected or the hose leaks, replace it with a new one.

La unidad de bomba suministra el aceite al martillo perforador a través de un tubo insertado. El aire
a presión se utiliza para distribuir el aceite hacia los puntos de lubricación. En un sistema de
recuperación, el aire a presión se utiliza para recoger el aceite de lubricación en un depósito
separado. El sistema dispone de un interruptor de control del nivel de aceite.
La bola de cierre de la válvula de retención del puerto de salida de la bomba de lubricación funciona
como un interruptor de control con respecto a su junta. El flujo de aceite a través de la válvula de
retención eleva la bola de la superficie de apoyo, con lo que el circuito se corta. La bola en la válvula
de retención de la válvula de control está conectada eléctricamente al bastidor de la bomba (y al
equipo de perforación). La tensión está conectada a la bola por vía de un muelle que está aislado
del bastidor de la bomba.
Si la bola permanece abierta durante más de 4 ciclos de trabajo,
se encenderá la alarma. Las luces indicadoras se encienden,
la(s) palanca(s) de mando están centradas y la función de
perforación está desactivada. Del mismo modo, si la bola no se
abre durante más de 4 ciclos de trabajo, se encenderá la alarma.
La alarma se apaga cuando se vuelva a alcanzar el bombeo
normal.

Si instala las bombas siguiendo lo estipulado por estas instrucciones, funcionarán adecuadamente
y no necesitarán demasiadas atenciones en cuento a su mantenimiento. La junta del eje mecánico
se ajusta automáticamente y está provista de superficies resistentes al desgaste, lubricadas y
refrigeradas mediante el agua bombeada. El agua bombeada también se encarga de lubricar los
cojinetes de la bomba.
Los motores sin boquillas de engrase están equipados con cojinetes de bola, que están lubricados
de por vida gracias con grasa resistente al calor. Por ello, no será necesario ningún tipo de lubricación
adicional.
Los motores con tapas de engrase (boquillas) se pueden lubricar con grasa con base de litio.
TIPO: ESSO BEACON 3 o similar.
El engrasado adicional sólo se recomienda bajo ciertas condiciones de funcionamiento, muy
específicas. Un exceso de grasa podría dañar el motor. En caso de funcionamiento estacional (es
decir, que el equipo permanece fuera de funcionamiento durante más de 6 meses al año), se
recomienda engrasar el motor antes de ponerlo fuera de funcionamiento.
En situaciones de funcionamiento en las que la temperatura pueda ser inferior a 0 °C, proteja el
sistema de barrido y evite que se congele el agua de barrido. Para ello, rocíe un poco de fluido
anticongelante a través del conducto de barrido.
Realice las siguientes comprobaciones regularmente y dependiendo del tiempo y las condiciones de
funcionamiento:
• Posibles fugas.
• Extraiga y limpie los filtros acoplados a la instalación.

2. Safety
2. Safety
The general safety instructions concerning the compressor are presented in this chapter.
Read also the safety instructions for transportation, installation, operation and maintenance
presented separately in each section of the manual.
In addition to these instructions, the local regulations in your country may impose additional requirements
that must be observed.
The noise level of the compressor, which is presented in the "Technical data" on page 34, is determined
according to ISO2151 and ISO3744. The noise level may rise higher if the walls surrounding the installing
location reflect sound. Take this into consideration, when choosing the best location for the compressor.
The intake air for the compressor must be clean and cool. Prevent the used and hot cooling air
circulating back to the cooling air intake. Make sure that foreign objects cannot get into the compressor
with the intake air. The intake air must not contain any explosive or inflammable gases or harmful
substances.
Do not exceed compressor's rated maximum pressure, capacity or rotation speed. For more details see
"Technical data" on page 34.
Use pneumatic hoses that can hold the working pressure. Pay special attention to the hose mountings.
The pressure in the hoses must be removed before disconnecting. A whipping hose may cause
unpredictable damage.
The pressure vessels in the pressurized air network must be in accordance with the pressure vessel
regulations.
Only authorized and qualified personnel should make the electrical connections.
The condensate water contains oil. It should be disposed of according to the local regulations on waste oil.
2
2. Safety
Use only the recommended AEON oil types. Do not mix different types of oil.
While doing maintenance, the compressor must always be stopped and disconnected from the electrical
mains connection. The shut-off valve of the pressurized air network must also be closed. Make sure that
there is no pressure in the air/oil receiver before starting maintenance.
All alterations must comply with the pressure vessel regulations PED 97/23/EC.
Do the regular checkups and maintenance of the compressor in order to ensure undisturbed operation.

4. Installing instructions
Some of the motors used in CT-range compressors are so called wide-voltage motors. Correct operation
with wide voltage range is implemented with split-winding technique where each phase winding is split in
the middle and each winding end is wired to the motor conduit box. IOW, in this type of motors there are 12
leads in the conduit box instead of 6 leads in typical motors. By connecting the leads suitably according to
the present operating point (voltage vs. frequency), the magnetic flux inside the motor and thus the motor
operation is optimized.
Single wye Y
Single delta Δ
Double wye YY
Double delta ΔΔ
1. In single arrangement each split winding halves are first connected to series and thus obtained full
windings connected to either wye or delta. With these arrangements the motor is equal to wye- or delta-
connected typical motor.
2. In double arrangement each split winding halves are first connected parallel and then these paralleled
winding halves connected to either wye or delta. With these arrangements the motor operates according to
its nominal values with half of the nominal voltage level (for example, 400V/50Hz -> 200V/50Hz).
In the case of CT-range compressors, three out of four previously mentioned arrangements are being
used, those being Y, Δ ja YY. YY-connection is used in 60Hz networks when the network voltage is lower
than standard (for example 400V/60Hz)
The correct winding arrangement is stamped to the motor nameplate along with each operating point.
There are 12 connection points in the conduit block of the motor. Also, each winding lead is numbered.
Winding leads are arranged according to picture 1. because by using this arrangement all the necessary
CT-configurations can be connected by altering only the conduit block bridges, without using any extra
jumper wires etc.

1. Check for sufficient oil level in the receiver. For more information, see "Adding and changing
oil" on page 19 and "Oil recommendations" on page 29.
3. Make sure the screw elements rotate in the correct direction before starting the compressor .
Correct rotation direction must always be ensured after the power supply or motor cables have been
disconnected and reconnected.
Do not control the air flow in the compressed air network using the shutter valve. Misuse of the shutter valve
may cause a rapid deflation of the system and increases oil consumption.

6. Bearing cover
Screw unit
Rotors
In a screw compressor the air is compressed in the air end driven by a motor.
The meshing rotors take air in between the ridges as they pass the inlet opening. When the rotors turn, the
connection to the inlet opening closes and the space between the ridges starts to decrease. At the end of
the compression phase, the desired pressure has been reached and the connection to the receiver opens.
The air in the air end is cooled by oil that is injected into it. The oil cools also the air end. In addition, the oil
lubricates the bearings and seals the clearances between the rotors and the rotor housing.
12
7. Operating principles
From the compressor air end the mixture of pressurized air and oil mist is ducted into the oil separating
receiver, where oil is separated from the pressurized air. The separating process has two phases.
Main part of the oil is separated in the cyclone (10) in the receiver, where the centrifugal effect is utilized.
The separated oil flows to the bottom of the receiver (11). The remainder of the oil is separated from the air
by means of oil separator (1). The oil separated in the oil separator is led back into circulation through the
oil return pipe (2). The return pipe is provided with an orifice plate (3) that prevents excess air recirculation
back into the compressor air end.
The internal pressure forces the oil back to the circulation through the oil cooler (8) and the oil filter (4).The
oil circulation is controlled by an oil thermostat valve (5). The oil thermostat valve controls the oil flow to the
oil cooler and to the oil cooler by-pass.
The forced oil circulation is maintained by the pressure difference between the receiver and the
compressor air end. To quarantee oil circulation whenever the compressor produces pressurized air, the
discharge valve (6) prevents the receiver pressure from dropping below the set minimum level (3 bar).
13
7. Operating principles
The compressed air is led out through the discharge valve (6). Alternatively (option) the compressed air is
led from the discharge valve to the after-cooler (7), where it´s temperature drops.
The pressure relief valve (9) protects the receiver against overpressure. It opens at a certain pressure,
preventing the receiver pressure from rising dangerously high.
Air out
The control system adjusts compressor output in accordance with the current air consumption and
maintains uniform pressure. It also cuts the power consumption for each cubic meter of pressurized air as
low as possible.
The output control range is continuous, and ranges from zero to full output capacity. Output is adjusted by
opening and closing the intake valve. The intake valve is controlled automatically by a control valve (1) that
measures compressor pressure and regulates it so that it remains within a set fluctuation range (normally 1
14
7. Operating principles
bar). The fluctuation range limits the allowed output pressure, which may fluctuate because of changing air
consumption.
When the motor is stopped, the blow-down valve (2) depressurises the receiver.
Output pressure can be regulated by turning the adjusting screw (B) on the control valve.
Locking nut (A) must be loosened before adjusting: turning the screw (B) clockwise increases pressure
and turning it counterclockwise lowers the pressure.
Capacity control
At 100°C the temperature alarm lights and at 115°C the compressor will stop.
15
7. Operating principles
The safety functions: the temperature alarm (Sl) and stopping (S2) are located in the temperature gauge.
Connect them accordingly to these wiring diagrams, which are also on the side of the temperature gauge.
The safety functions must absolutely be connected before taking the compressor into use.

8. Maintenance instructions
8. Maintenance instructions
Maintenance and service operations other than those described in this manual must be left to service
personnel authorized by Gardner Denver.
Use only original Gardner Denver spare parts. The use of other spare parts may cause compressor damage.
Before any maintenance operations, switch off the compressor with the main switch and make sure that the
compressor cannot be accidentally started.
1. Stop the compressor and make sure that there is no pressure in the receiver. Wait for 2
minutes after stopping for the blow-down function to empty the receiver.
2. Turn the power off at the main switch and make sure that the compressor cannot be
accidentally started.
3. Close the shut-off valve between the compressed air network and the compressor.
The space between the discharge valve and the system shut-off valve stays under pressure when the
compressor is stopped and the shut-off valve is closed. Release the pressure for example through a water
drain.
2. Open the shut-off valve between the compressed air network and the compressor.
17
8. Maintenance instructions
In the case of extreme operating conditions, it is advisable to halve the service intervals. The compressor’s
rapid cycling between unloading and loading will shorten the service intervals. Please contact an authorized
distributor of Gardner Denver for more information.

valve.
9. Replace the seals of the discharge valve with a new set if needed.
10. Install the assembled valve back in it’s place. When assembling the valve, tighten the screws
alternately to even tightness.
There should be about 2 mm clearance between the nut (6) and the top of the discharge valve, when there is
no pressure in the receiver or the network. Do not tighten the nut!
Visually check the compressor for oil leaks, in particular around the compressor unit, the oil cooler and the
oil hoses.
23
8. Maintenance instructions
Check all hoses for cracks, blisters, tears, leaks, and stiffness. Replace as required
Always use original pneumatic hoses that are rated to withstand the working pressure and temperature. Pay
particular attention to the hose installings as a lose hose can flail and cause unpredictable damage.
The compressors which optionally include an after-cooler and water separator assy also include solenoid
valve.
A clogged cooler increases the output air temperature and may lead to a compressor stoppage.
Clean the cooler with pressurized air, see the picture. For a more effective cleaning, brush the cooler from
underneath. Note! Do not use a metal wire brush.
24
8. Maintenance instructions
If the cooler is very dirty, remove it from the compressor and clean the outside with mild detergent.
For more information on cleaning the cooler, please contact an authorized distributor of Gardner Denver.

All adjustment and repair operations of the pressure relief valve must be performed by qualified
maintenance technicians. All local regulations must be observed.
The compressor must be stopped and secured from automatic restart before attempting this procedure.
The opening pressure of the pressure relief valve must be tested in a separate pressurized air line. The
pressure relief valve has been tested at the manufacturer's site before shipping out the compressor. If the
valve has been replaced, it needs to be tested for proper operation. This procedure can be performed only
by a qualified mechanican.
The operation of the valve can be tested by turning the cap (1) counter-clockwise 1 to 2 turns. Always
tighten up the pressure relief valve cap properly to avoid damage caused by vibration.
