7.0 INSTALLATION

For technical information see section 8.0.

7.1 LOCATION IN PLANT

Ensure that the correct tie down points are used.

For major overhaul (i.e. motor removal) position the 
machine to obtain lifting access e.g. fork lift truck.

See diagram in reference section for minimum space 
requirements for normal operation and maintenance.

Ambient temperatures higher than 46° C (115° F) must be 
avoided as well as areas of high humidity.

Consider also the environment surrounding or near the 
compressor. The area selected for the location of the 
compressor should be free of dust, chemicals, metal 
filings, paint fumes and overspray.

Hard surfaces may reflect noise with an apparent 
increase in the decibel level. When sound transmission 
is important, a sheet of rubber or cork can be installed 
beneath the machine to reduce noise. Flexible piping 
may be required.

It is recommended that provision be made for lifting 
heavy components during major overhaul. Use only 
lifting points provided.

Minimum space in front of control panel door as required 
by National or Local codes must be maintained.

The compressor can be installed on any level floor 
capable of supporting it. A dry, well ventilated area where 
the atmosphere is as clean as possible is recommended.

Sufficient space all round and above the compressor must 
be allowed, to enable the effective removal of the cooling 
air which, in turn, will reduce the risk of recirculating the 
cooling air back through the compressor.

 CAUTION

A minimum of 1 m (3.3ft) all round the compressor is recommended. If headroom is restricted, then the ex-

haust should be ducted or deflected away from the machine.
Screw type compressors [1] should not be installed in air systems with reciprocating compressors without 

means of isolation such as a common receiver tank. It is recommended that both types of compressor be 

piped to a common receiver using individual air lines.
The machine is shipped with the shipping restraints in place. Ensure that these are removed to allow free 

movement of the drive assembly during operation. Each restraint is painted yellow.
