Screw Type Air Compressor General Principle and Specification

Ⅰ. Introduction of Oil-Injected Screw Type Air Compressor

The oil-injected screw air compressor is the current trend of air compressor

development due to its excellent and reliable performance. The advantages include small

vibration, low noise, high efficiency and no easily damageable parts, which the

characteristics piston compressor (same discharge pressure) does not have. The precise

matching between female /male rotors, and between rotors / compressor casing reduces

air circumfluence leakage and enhances efficiency. There is only mesh between rotors

and no reciprocal movement of cylinders, thus reducing vibration and noise sources. The

unique lubrication method brings the following advantages:

1. The oil is constantly injected into the compression chamber and bearing due to the

pressure differential generated by the compressor itself, thus simplifying the complex

machinery.

2. The injected oil can form an oil film between rotors. The male rotor can drive the

female rotor directly, without the aid of high precision synchronous gears.

3. Injected oil can increase sealing effect.

4. Lubrication oil can reduce noise generated by high frequency compression.

5. Lubrication oil can absorb large amounts of compression heat. Therefore, discharge

temperature will not become too high even if the single-stage compression ratio is up

to 16. Rotors will not rub the casing for having different heat expansion coefficients.

Ⅱ. Stage Structure of Oil-Injected Screw Type Air Compressor

1. Basic Structure

Our oil-injected air compressor is a two-shaft positive displacement rotary

compressor. The suction port is located at the upper part of casing, and discharge

port is located at its lower part. A pair of high precision male and female rotors is

horizontally and installed parallel inside the casing. The male rotor is larger than

that of the female rotor. The gear profile is made in screw type so that two rotors

can mesh with each other. The ends of male and female rotors are positioned by

Tel:0086-10-84471789 84471989 Fax:0086-10-84471889 E-mail:[email protected]

 SHC Petroleum Equipment(Bei Jing)CO.,Limited

bearing supports.

2. Mesh

Electrical motor directly drives male rotor through coupling. Since two rotors can

perfectly mesh with each other, the male rotor will drive the female rotor to rotate

together. From the lower portion of compressor casing, cooling lubricant oil is

directly injected into the meshed part between rotors via nozzle and then mixed

with air. It takes away the heat produced during compression process to achieve

cooling. At the same time, it from an oil film to prevent metal rotors from direct

contact and to seal the clearance between rotors and casing. The injected oil also

reduces noise generated by high-speed compression.

Depending on different discharge pressure, the weight of injected oil is

approximately 5-10 times the air.

Ⅲ. Compression Principle of Screw Air Compressor (Refer to Fig.1)

1. Suction Process

When rotors are rotating, the groove space between male and female rotors reaches

maximum when rotors rotate to the wall opening of the suction end. At this moment,

the groove space of rotors is connected with the free air at suction port. Outside air is

drawn into the enclosed chamber formed between female, male rotors and casing.

The suction and surface of rotors will rotate away from suction port after the groove is

completely filled with air, and the air in the groove is enclosed. This is referred to as

“suction process”.

2. Seal and Delivery Process

At the end of suction, the addendum of two rotors will close together with casing to

keep the air inside the groove from escaping. This is referred to as “seal process”. As

the two rotors continue rotating, the addendum and groove will mesh at the suction

end. Then the meshed surface gradually moves toward discharge end. This is

“delivery process”.

 SHC Petroleum Equipment(Bei Jing)CO.,Limited

3. Compression and Oil Injection Process

During delivery process, meshed surface gradually moves toward discharge end. The

enclosed space between the teeth of the female and male rotors is reduced gradually.

The air in the groove will be compressed and the pressure increases. This is

“compression process”. Meanwhile, lubrication oil is injected into compression

chamber and mixed with air due to pressure differential.

4. Discharge process

When the enclosed space between female and male rotors rotates and connects with

discharge port of the casing (compressed air reaches the maximum pressure at this

point), compressed air begins to discharge. This will not stop until the groove space is

reduced to zero. Then the “discharge process” is finished. Meanwhile, another pair of

rotor teeth rotates to the suction end to form maximum space, thus starting suction

process and a new compression cycle.

Installation of Air Compressor

Ⅰ. Installation

Users typically ignore the selection of installation site for air compressor. An air

compressor is often erected at a convenient place after procurement and then used

immediately after finishing piping work. Such a careless installation will result in air

compressor failure, service difficulties and bad quality of compressed air. Therefore, a

good installation site is the prerequisite for correct air compressor system application.

Select a site that has:

1. A spacious and illuminated place for easy operation and maintenance.

2. Low relative humidity, low dust, clean air and good ventilation.

3. Ambient temperature below 46℃ to avoid unnecessary high-temperature tripping.

Also, the higher the ambient temperature, the less the air output of compressor

will be. In addition, ambient temperature must be above 5℃, over the solidifying

point of water and lubrication oil.

4. In case of poor factory environment (such as dusty), install an additional

ventilation pipe to move suction end toward places with cleaner air. Or install

pre-filter equipment to maintain the normal service life of component in air

compressor system.

5. Reserve enough space around air compressor for parts entry during servicing

and repairing. The distance from the sides and the top of air compressor to wall

must be over 1 meter.

6. Reserve passage space and install a crane (especially for high-power air

compressor) for servicing and repairing.

7. Air compressor is heat-generating equipment (especially air-cooled type), so

plant ventilation is very important. It is necessary to install air suction / discharge

equipment based on direction of outside wind. Its air suction quantity must be

larger than the air quantity of compressor circulating fan or cooling fan. There

should be enough area for entrance of cooling air. It is also possible to install a

wind guide at the discharge fan outlet on top of air compressor, to draw hot air

discharged by air compressor away from air pipe, thus maintaining a room

temperature of 5~46℃.

When using air discharge pipe, reserve space for adjustable canvas joint used for

maintenance (e.g., there will be enough space to dismount cover and other parts from

compressor when cleaning the cooler).

Tel:0086-10-84471789 84471989 Fax:0086-10-84471889 E-mail:[email protected]

 SHC Petroleum Equipment(Bei Jing)CO.,Limited

If air compressor is placed in an enclosed machine

room, ventilation fan is required to maintain room
temperature. Air quantity of ventilation fan must be
larger than the air quantity of compressor circulating
fan or cooling fan, and there should be enough area
for entrance of cooling air.

If it is the direction of cooling air outlet,

space of at least 1000mm must be
preserved for ventilation. Poor The floor must be It needs 700mm of maintenance space in the
ventilation can lead to high-temperature level. Place soft pad front so as to have access to maintenance

ordinary side panel, then space of at beneath the
least 500mm must be preserved. compressor to avoid
vibration and noise.

Ⅱ. Piping, foundation and cooling system

1. Air line piping

(1) During main line piping construction, the line should have 1-2 degree of slope to

drain the condensed water in the pipe.

(2) The pressure drop in piping line should not exceed 5% of designed pressure of

compressor. Therefore, it is better to select a pipe with a larger diameter.

(3) Branch line must be connected to the top of main line to prevent condensed water

inside the piping from flowing down to operating machine or back to the

compressor. Check valve should be installed in the air outlet line of compressor.

(4) When installing several air compressors in parallel, install ball valve or automatic

water discharge valve at the end of main line for the automatic discharge of

condensed water.

Tel:0086-10-84471789 84471989 Fax:0086-10-84471889 E-mail:[email protected]

 SHC Petroleum Equipment(Bei Jing)CO.,Limited

(5) Do not arbitrarily reduce the size of the main line. Use pipe reducer when it is

necessary to reduce or enlarge line size. Otherwise turbulent flow will occur at

joints and cause significant pressure loss, as well as have a serious influence

over the life of the line.

(6) If there are purification and butter facilities such as drier or air tank after the

compressor, the ideal piping arrangement is: air compressor + air tank + drier. In

this way, the air tank can filter out part of the condensed water and decrease the

air discharge temperature. Air with lower temperature and less moisture enters

the drier and thus lessens the load of drier.

(7) If the system consumes large amounts of air in a short period, it is recommended

to add an air tank as buffer to reduce the changeover frequency of compressor’s

idle and heavy duty. It is very beneficial for the compressor.

(8) If the system air pressure is under 1.5Mpa, the flow rate in the delivery pipe

should not exceed 15m/s to avoid large pressure drop.

(9) Try not to use elbows and various valves in the line to minimize pressure loss.

(10) The ideal piping construction is to let the main line surround the whole plant.

Thus compressed air in two directions can be obtained at any location. This can

decrease the pressure drop when air consumption goes up abruptly in certain

branch lines. Also install suitable valves in circular main line for service and

repairing.

2. Foundation

(1) Foundation should be built on solid ground. The foundation surface must be ground

level before installation to prevent air compressor from vibration and thus large

noise.

(2) Should the air compressor be installed upstairs, oscillation prevention must be

implemented to prevent vibration from transmitting to downstairs or creating

resonance that could lead to safety hazards for the compressor and building.

3. Cooling System

(1) Cooling water for water-cooled type air compressor must meet the requirements for

industrial water, in order to avoid a chemical reaction of calcium and magnesium

Tel:0086-10-84471789 84471989 Fax:0086-10-84471889 E-mail:[email protected]

 SHC Petroleum Equipment(Bei Jing)CO.,Limited

caused by high temperatures. The chemical reactions could result in water scaling

that affects the heat-conductance of cooler. If a water-cooling tower recycling system

is used, softener must be added periodically into water to keep its cleanliness.

(2) The automatic replenishing system of cooling water-recycling system must be

complete; otherwise, there will be insufficient water after a certain period of

operation, which could lead to compressors tripping due to high temperature.

(3) It is best to use the cooling water system of compressors individually, avoiding

sharing with other systems. This could prevent impacts on the cooling effect due to

insufficient water.

(4) Cooling water tower must meet the specified water quantity for compressor. The

power of water pump must be correctly chosen. The location of cooling water tower

must facilitate the heat dissipation, with good ventilation and solid support to prevent

leaning.

(5) The pressure of cooling water is generally maintained between 0.15-0.25MPa, and

should not exceed 0.5MPa.

(6) The temperature of cooling water at outlet should be below 40℃.

(7) For air-cooled compressor, it is particularly important to maintain a good ventilation

environment. Do not place air compressor near high-temperature machinery or

inside enclosed space with poor ventilation, in order to prevent tripping caused by a

high temperature of discharged air. If the compressor is used in an enclosed system,

air suction and discharge equipments must be installed to facilitate air circulation.

Generally speaking, the individual air quantity ventilated must be larger than the

discharged air volume of compressor fan for heat dissipation.

(8) For air-cooled type compressor, heat exchanger must be cleaned frequently to

maintain efficient heat dissipation.

Ⅲ. General Specification and Safety Standards of Electrical Appliance

1. Select the correct wire diameter according to the rated power of the air compressor.

Do not use wire diameter that is too small, or power cord will be easily burnt out

and generate danger.

2. Air compressor should have an independent power system, especially not

 SHC Petroleum Equipment(Bei Jing)CO.,Limited

connected with other different power consumption systems in parallel. If used in

parallel, it is possible to trip the overload protection device due to large voltage

reduction or imbalance of three-phase current. This is especially important for air

compressors with large power.

3. Install adequate NFB according to the power of the air compressor for the safety of

power system and maintenance.

4. It is necessary to confirm the correct voltage while performing power

distribution of air compressor.

5. The grounding wire of motor or system must be reliably installed and grounding

wire cannot be connected to air delivery pipe or cooling water pipe.

6. Air compressor must be reliably grounded to prevent danger from electrical

leakage.

7. If three-phase current is not balances, the different between the lowest phase

current and the highest phase current should not exceed 5%. If there is a voltage

drop of the power source, it should not be lower than 5% of rated voltage.

System Flow
Ⅰ. Air system flow (refer to system flow charts of each model)
1. After dust particles are filtered by the filter, air enters compression chamber through
air inlet valve and is compressed. It then mixed with lubricant oil. Compressed oil-air
mixture is discharged into oil air tank, and then passes through oil fine separator,
pressure maintaining valve and rear cooler. Then it passes water separator and is
sent into system for utilization.
2. Function description of parts in the air line
(1) Air Filter
Air filter is a dry type paper filter. Its main function is to remove the dust in the air.
Normally it should be taken out to clean every 1,000 hours. The cleaning method is to
use low-pressure air to blow it outwardly. There is a pressure differential switch
installed inside the air filter. When air filter pressure differential increases and reaches
the set value of pressure differential switch, the pressure differential switch operates.
If the air filter pressure differential lamp lights up, it indicates that the filter needs to be
replaced or cleaned, although the compressor can still operate.

Warning
Since the increase of pressure differential will lead to the reduction of air inlet
quantity, it is suggested to clean or replace the air filter.
(2) Air inlet valve
When compressor starts, the valve element of air inlet valve closes to ensure the
load-free starting. When air compressor operates under heavy load, the valve opens,
so that compressor can operate under heavy load.
If the system air consumption reduces, the pressure rise, air inlet valve element is fully
closed. Meanwhile, the pressure within the air compressor system is vented through
purge valve. The air-end is idly operating. When system pressure reduces and
becomes lower than set value, the pressure switch operates again, thus resume
heavy load operation.
When OFF key is pressed to turn off the compressor, the air-end will continue turning
for 15 seconds until load released, and then the machine will be turned off.
(3) Temperature switch with indicator
During loss of water, oil, and insufficient amount of water, the temperature of
discharged air may become too high. When discharge temperature reaches the set
value of temperature switch (100℃), the temperature switch operates and stops the
compressor. Head discharge temperature can be read from the display panel of the
temperature switch.
(4) Expansion Joint
Eliminate the inner stress of pipes caused by heat expansion and the vibration of the
unit.
(5) Oil air tank
Oil sight is installed on the tank of oil air tank. The oil level of static lubricant oil should
be between the high and low oil levels of oil sight. An oil drain valve is installed at the
bottom of the tank. Open the oil drain valve a little bit each time before starting up to

Tel:0086-10-84471789 84471989 Fax:0086-10-84471889 E-mail:[email protected]

 SHC Petroleum Equipment(Bei Jing)CO.,Limited

drain the condensed water deposited in the oil air tank. A 1” oil-filling port is on the
bank for oil filling. Due to the wide cross sectional area of the oil tank, the compressed
air can reduce the flow rate of screw oil and cause oil drops to separate. This is the
first stage of oil separation.
(6) Oil fine separator
Refer to the following section for more detail.
(7) Safety valve
The safety valve will automatically open when the pressure switch is improperly
adjusted or not functioning, which leads to the internal pressure of oil air tank higher
than set discharge pressure by over 0.1MPa, to reduce the pressure so it is below the
set discharge pressure. Safety valve has been adjusted before delivery. Please do not
adjust it improperly.
(8) Relief solenoid valve
Relief solenoid valve is a two-way N.O. solenoid valve. It will open when unit is shut
down or under zero load to release internal pressure of the bank. This will ensure that
compressor can start or turn under zero load when it is operated again.
(9) Pressure maintaining valve
It is located at the outlet of oil fine separator above the oil air tank. The opening
pressure is set at ~0.45MPa. The function of pressure maintaining valve includes:
A. Give priority to the establishment of circulating pressure needed by lubricant oil
when starting, thus ensuring the lubrication of machine.
B. Open only when the pressure exceeds 0.45MPa. Reduce the airflow rate through
oil fine separator. Besides ensuring the effect of oil fine separation, this can also
protect the oil fine separator, preventing it from being damaged by large pressure
differential.
(10) Rear cooler
A. For air-cooled type cooler, cooling air is drawn in by cooler fan passes through
cooler to cool the compressed air. Air-cooled type air compressor is sensitive to
ambient temperature condition. Pay attention to the ventilation condition when
selecting the installation location.
B. For water-cooled type, pipe-shell type cooler is used. Cooling water is used for
cooling compressed air. Water-cooled type compressor is relatively insensitive to
ambient temperature, and its discharge temperature can be easily controlled. If
the quality of cooling water is too poor, scaling can be generated and causing
clogging. Therefore it must be handled carefully. If the pH of water is low (high
acidity), special copper material must be used to avoid corrosion.
(11) Water separator
It is cyclone separation type water separator. It can remove the condensed water, oil
drop and foreign matter after the cooling of air. After passing through water separator,
the compressed air can be sent directly to any place where it is needed.
(12) Automatic water drainer
It can automatically drain the condensed water deposited inside the water separator.
Ⅱ. Lubricant oil flow (refer to system flow charts of each model)
1. Description of oil injection flow

 SHC Petroleum Equipment(Bei Jing)CO.,Limited

The pressure in oil air tank forces lubricant oil into cooler. After the lubricant oil is
cooled in the cooler, it passes through oil filter to remove impurity particles. Then it is
divided into two branches. One is injected into compression chamber from the bottom
of machine body to cool compressed air. The other is sent to the two ends of machine
body to lubricate bearing sets. Then lubricant oil from all parts is gathered at the
bottom of compression chamber to be discharged along with compressed air. The
compressed air mixed with oil enters the oil air tank where a large portion of the oil is
separated. The remaining air containing oil mist passes through oil fine separator to
filter out the remaining oil. Then it passes through the pressure-maintaining valve and
enters the air discharge check valve, and is cooled by rear cooler. Then it can be sent
to the systems where it is used.
2. Volume control of oil injection
The injected oil in oil-injection screw type compressor is used for removing the heat
generated during the air compression process. The injection volume has a direct
influence over the performance of the compressor. The injection volume has been set
before delivery so should not be changed. If it needs adjustment due to discharge
temperature or other reasons, please contact Fu Sheng service department in
advance to avoid damage to the compressor.
3. Description of the functions for oil line parts
(1) Oil cooler
The cooling method of oil cooler is the same as that of the air rear cooler, with
air-cooled and water-cooler types. For poor ambient conditions, the fins of air-cooled
type cooler can be easily covered by dust and this will influence the cooling effect,
causing high discharge temperature and tripping. Therefore, after a certain period,
use low-pressure compressed air to blow the dust off the fin surface. If blowing air
cannot clean it, then solvent must be used. Keep the cleanliness of the
heat-dissipation surface of cooler. If pips-shell type cooler is clogged, it must be
immersed in special reagent solution, and the scaling inside the pipe must be cleaned
with mechanical means. Be sure to completely clean it.
(2) Oil filter
The oil filter is a paper filter. Its function is to remove the impurities in the oil, such as
metal particles, oil degradation, etc. The resolution is between 10-15 microns. It can
provide complete protection to bearings and rotors. Use the pressure differential
indicator to judge whether the oil filter should be replaced. If the indicator lights up, it
means that the oil filter is clogged and must be replaced. For the first-time operation of
new compressor, oil and oil filter must be replaced after 500 hours of operation.
Afterwards, it should be replaced whenever the indicator lights up. If the oil filter is not
replaced at large pressure differential, it can lead to insufficient volume of injected oil,
causing high discharge temperature and tripping. Insufficient oil volume also affects
the life of bearings.
(3) Oil fine separator
The filter element of oil fine separator is made of multi-layer fine glass fiber. The misty
oil air contained in compressed air will be almost completely removed (below 3 ppm)
after passing through oil fine separator. Under normal operation, the quality of

lubricant oil and the pollution condition of surrounding environment have large
influence over its life. If the environment is heavily polluted, it is suggested to add a
pre-air filter. Fu Sheng special screw oil must be chosen as the lubricant oil. Safety
valve, relief valve and pressure maintaining valve are installed at the outlet of oil fine
separator. The compressed air exits here and is sent to rear cooler.
The oil filtered by oil fine separator is gathered in the small circular grove in the center,
then flows back to the bearing end of machine body through oil return pipe.
This can prevent the filtered lubricant oil from being discharged along with air.
Generally, the following methods can be used to judge whether the oil fine separator is
damaged:
a) Increased oil content in the airline.
b) There is an oil fine separator pressure differential switch between the oil air tank
and oil fine separator. Its set pressure differential value is 0.15MPa. When the
pressure differential across oil fine separator exceeds the set value, the indicator
illuminates and indicating clogging in the oil fine separator. The oil fine separator
should be replaced immediately.
c) Check the oil pressure to see if it is too high.
d) Check the current to see if it is increasing.
(4) Heat control valve
There is a heat control at the front end of oil cooler. Its function is to maintain the
discharge temperature so that it is over the pressure dew point temperature. When the
compressor is just started, the temperature of lubricant oil is low. Then the heat control
valve will automatically open the oil return loop so that the oil flows into machinery
body without passing through oil cooler. If the temperature of oil rises above 67℃, the
valve will open gradually and becomes fully open at 72℃. Then all the oil will pass
through oil cooler before entering machine body.
Ⅲ. Cooling system
1. Air-cooled type
Cool air is drawn by a circulating fan, and passes through the heat-dissipation fins of
cooler. It exchanges heat with compressed air and lubricant oil to achieve cooling
effect. The maximum allowable ambient temperature of this cooling system is 46℃. If
the ambient temperature exceeds 46℃ (e.g., located beside boiler, etc.), the system
could trip due to high temperature.
2. Water-cooled type
The designed benchmark of cooling water temperature is 32℃. Pay attention to this
when designing cooling water recycling system. In particular, the quality of cooling
water must meet or exceed general standard for industrial water. If the water quality is
poor, softener must be added periodically into cooling water tower to maintain the
cleanliness of water. This will avoid the influences on cooler’s efficiency and life. For
areas where it is normally below freezing pint during winter, the cooling water in the
cooler must be completely drained after stopping the unit.

Safety Protection System and Warning Devices

1. Motor overload protection
There are two main motors within the air compressor system. One is the main motor
for air compressor, the other is the fan motor. If the motor current continuously
exceeds the upper limit set by protection device, the protection device will
automatically switch off main power supply within set time, thus stops the compressor.
At this moment, find the origin of current overload and eliminate the source. The
protection device must be reset for the compressor to be started again. The resetting
method is to manually press the reset key of setting switch. The common reasons for
motor overload include:
(1) Human error during operation: such as improper adjustment of discharge pressure
and system, etc.
(2) Mechanical failure: such as motor internal wear, motor phase loss operation, safety
valve failure, system setting failure, clogging of oil fine separator, etc.
(3) Electrical malfunction: low voltage, false connection, large current, etc.
When motor overload occurs during operation, contact manufacturer immediately.
Send personnel to give inspection and locate the reasons. Otherwise the motor can
be damaged, causing great loss.
2. Anti-reversal protection of the air compressor
When the phase sequence of the three-phase power cord connected to compressor is
incompatible with the setting of air compressor, electrical malfunction will occur and
compressor will not start. Simply exchange any two of the power cords to fix this
problem.
Attention
Although there is anti-reversal protection, confirm the correct rotation direction
of motor after each wiring.
3. High discharge temperature protection
The maximum discharge temperature set for the system is 100℃. If this value is
exceeded, then system will automatically switch off power supply. There are many
reasons why discharge temperature is too high, but the most common one is the
failure of oil cooler. For air-cooled type oil cooler, if the heat-dissipation fins are
clogged by dust, the cool air cannot pass through cooler freely, and then the
temperature of lubricant oil will rise gradually and cause high-temperature tripping.
Therefore, use low-pressure air to blow off the dust on heat-dissipation fins
periodically. If it cannot be cleaned by air blowing, then it is best to be cleaned by
detergent or solvent. For water-cooler air compressor, usually high-temperature
tripping is caused by the water scaling inside the cooling copper tube and consequent
reduction of heat conducting efficiency.
The designed maximum ambient temperature of air compressor is 46℃. It is therefore
important to choose a place for compressor where the ambient temperature is low and
ventilation is good. After the action discharge temperature switch, the system-starting
loop is cut off. At this moment, the system cannot be started again. Press the
emergency stop key and reset the discharge temperature switch. Then the system
can be restarted.

4. Alarm devices
There are three types of alarm devices in the system: air filter clogging, oil filter
clogging and oil fine separator clogging. Theirs indicators are all located on the
instrument panel. When indicator illuminate, certain filter is clogged. Otherwise the
compressor performance and operational safety will be jeopardized.

Control System and Electric Circuit

1. Control system
(1) Motor starting (voltage reduction or Y-starting)
During this period, the air inlet valve is fully closed and the relief valve is fully open. At
this moment, there is high vacuum on the air inlet side. Lubricant oil for compression
chamber and bearing is guaranteed by pressure difference between the vacuum in
the compression chamber and atmospheric pressure in the oil tank.
(2) Full-voltage operation of motor (full-voltage or △operation)
After being switched to full-voltage operation, the relief valve is closed. At this
moment, the pressure inside the air tank gradually increased and the air inlet valve
slowly opens. Thus the pressure inside the oil tank rises rapidly, so that air inlet fully
opens and the compressor starts full-load running. When the pressure rises to
0.45MPa, the pressure maintaining valve fully opens and the air is sent out.
(3) Heavy load / zero load operation
When the discharge pressure reaches the upper limit set for pressure switch, the
pressure switch cut off power supply. Therefore the air inlet valve is also closed while
the relief valve fully opens, to discharge the air inside the oil air tank into the
atmosphere. At this moment, the compressor is running under zero load. The lubricant
oil pressure needed is maintained by the difference between vacuum and atmospheric
pressure.
When the pressure in the pipeline system is below the lower limit of pressure switch,
the pressure switch will turn on power supply once again. The air inlet valve fully
opens. The relief valve closes at the same time and compressor is again running
under load.
(4) Shut-down
Press the OFF key, the relief valve fully opens. The air inside the oil tank is discharged
into the atmosphere. After the pressure inside the oil tank is below certain value, the
motor will stop.
(5) Emergency shut-down
If the discharge temperature is over 100℃ or the current protection device acts due to
overload of motor, the power will be switched off and the motor will be stopped
immediately. Zero / heavy load solenoid valve and air inlet valve will be closed, and
the relief valve will fully open so that lubricant enter compressor anymore. Only when
there is abnormal emergency during unit operation may the emergency key be
pressed. Otherwise it may cause system failure and oil ejection from air inlet
port.
(6) Automatic shut-down after long period of zero operation
When the air consumption of the system reduces, the compressor will continue zero

Tel:0086-10-84471789 84471989 Fax:0086-10-84471889 E-mail:[email protected]

 SHC Petroleum Equipment(Bei Jing)CO.,Limited

load operation. If the time of zero load operation exceeds the set value, the
compressor will automatically shut down and the motor will stop. When the air
consumption of the system increases, the system pressure will decrease. Then the air
compressor will automatically start to replenish air. Time setting for zero load shut
down should be that the motor starting frequency per hour will not exceed three times.
Use can decide the time setting based on actual usage condition. Do not start motor
too often as this may burn the motor.
2 Electrical circuit
Electrical control of the compressor can be divided into two systems. One is the
internal control system and the other is the starter panel. Starter panel is a
Y-△starting control used for general machinery. The controller portion is electronic
control. Due to the complicated internal wiring and control of the electronic controller, it
will not be explained in detail in this chapter. If any damage or malfunction occurs,
please contact directly with service departments of Fu Sheng and replace the electronic
circuit board.
3. Control panel
(1) Control panel
The function of control panel is to display the operational status of compressor.
Daily servicing of the compressor is important for its normal operation and efficiency
(more important than repairing). Perform inspection and servicing of the compressor
according to the timer on the control panel.

(2) Use of control panel indicators

a. If any alarm or malfunction occurs during operation, the red indicator on control panel
will illuminate and indicates the origin of failure.
Indicator Item Meaning and Function lndicator Status
High discharge temperature High discharge temperature Red indicator iIluminates,
100℃ compressor stops

seconds.
Attention
Please do not use Emergency Stop Key for stopping the compressor under normal
circumstances.
Ⅱ. Daily inspection before starting
The daily inspection before starting is the necessary work for the normal operation of
compressor and should be performed carefully.
1. Water drainage of oil air tank: slightly open the water drainage valve of oil air tank and
water separator to discharge the condensed water formed during machine stop until
there is lubricant oil in the water, then the valve should be closed immediately.

Attention
Before opening the water drainage valve of oil tank, be sure to confirm that there
is no pressure inside the oil air tank.
2. Check the oil level: Add oil so that the level is in the middle of the upper and lower
limits of oil sight when necessary.

Attention
Please use Fu Sheng Screw Oil. Do not mix with lubricant oil of other brands or
from other manufacturer.
Confirm that there is no pressure inside the system when adding lubricant oil.
Observe the oil level 10 minutes after stopping the compressor. The oil level during
operation may be slightly lower than the level when the compressor is stopped.
3. Preparation of peripheral equipment: Turn on power supply, cooling water tower, water
pump, open outlet valve of compressor, run the compressed air drier.
4. Start the compressor.
Ⅲ. Cautions during operation
1. Stop the compressor immediately if there is any abnormal noise or vibration.
2. There is pressure in both the piping and the container during operation. Do not loosen
the blot plug of pipeline. Do not unnecessarily open any valve.
3. If oil level does not show up on oil sight during long-term operation, and the oil
temperature rises gradually, immediately stop the compressor. Observe the oil level
after 10 minutes. If the oil is insufficient, wait until there is no pressure inside the
system and then add more lubricant oil.
4. The condensed water in the rear cooler and cyclone separator will be automatically
drained, but the outlet valve needs to be open, otherwise the water will enter the
system.

Don't use
The use of or mixing with lubricant oils of
other brands is strictly forbidden.

Ⅰ. Specification and servicing of lubricant oil

1. Lubricant oil plays a vital role in the performance of oil-injected screw type
air compressor. If it is improperly used, it will cause serious damage to the
compressor body, or even fire. Therefore Fu Sheng screw oil must be used.
2. The factors affecting oil changing time:
(1) Poor ventilation, high ambient temperature
(2) High humidity environment or rainy season.
(3) Dusty environment
(4) High content of certain chemical gas (such as O2, O3, Cl2, etc.) in the
environment.
3. Procedure of oil change
(1) Start the air compressor, increase the oil temperature to facilitate discharge.
Then press OFF key to stop operation．
(2) Open oil drainage valve when there is pressure. The oil discharge rate is fast
so oil can be easily ejected. The valve should be opened slowly to avoid
spilling of lubricant oil.
(3) After the complete drainage of lubricant oil, close oil drainage valve, open the
oil-filling cap to add new oil. Be sure to drain all lubricant oil in the system,
such as oil in pipes, coolers and oil tank.
(4) Add new oil.
4. Precautions when using lubricant oil
(1) lf the oil-injected screw type air compressor is used for the first time, the first oil
change should be performed after the 500-hour grinding-in period of the oil.
Then it should be replaced for every 3,000~4,000 hours under normal
circumstances．

Tel:0086-10-84471789 84471989 Fax:0086-10-84471889 E-mail:[email protected]

 SHC Petroleum Equipment(Bei Jing)CO.,Limited

(2) Do not extend the usage of lubricant oil beyond its life. Oil should be
replaced in time; otherwise, the quality of oil will degrade and cause bad
lubricity. This can easily lead to high-temperature tripping and carbon
deposition. The flammable point of oil will also decrease, causing
self-ignition and burning of air compressor.
(3) After 2 years of compressor usage，it is better to perform a “systematic
cleaning” with lubricant oil. The method is: when replacing with new lubricant
oil, run the air compressor for 6-8 hours, then change lubricant oil immediately,
so that various organic material remained in the system can be completely
cleaned. Then the newly replaced lubricant oil can last longer.
5. The correct lubrication and cleaning procedure can
(1) Completely and timely remove the dirt deposited in the lubrication system
(2) Ensure reasonable and sufficient lubrication for the air compressor
(3) Ensure the long-term stable operation of the unit
(4) Avoid or reduce accidental shut down
(5) Reduce the consumption of spare parts
(6) Enhance production efficiency, bringing benefits to our customer
6. For the cleaning procedure of the upgraded special oil for Fu Sheng screw type
air compressor, we have the following suggestions:
(1) Start compressor, run for l hour under normal temperature
(2) Shut down the compressor
(3) Immediately drain oil from oil tank, pipeline, oil filter, oil cooler and water
separator
(4) Replace the filter element of compressor oil filter
(5) Add special oil for Fu Sheng screw air compressor till 50-60％of the oil tank.
(6) Start compressor, run for l hour under normal operating temperature. During
this period, open and close air discharge valve every 15 minutes, so that the
compressor works alternately under full=load and zero-load conditions. Rising
bubble will be seen inside the air tank and it will rise until above the oil sight.
The color of oil sight will change from milky white to relatively clear.
(7) Pay attention to the pressure differential across the lubricant oil filter. If it
exceeds 0.15MPa, the filter element should be replaced.
(8) Shut down the compressor
(9) As the oil is still warm, drain oil from oil tank, pipeline, oil filter, compressor, oil
cooler and water separator. Replace oil filter element. Clean oil return filter net.
Check if there is any oil transition when the air is drawn into filter element. If
yes, replace filter element. If necessary, dismantle part of the pipeline to
completely drain the lubricant oil remaining at the lower positions (if the
cleanliness of the system is not ideal, then repeat step 4-6).
(10) Add special oil for Fu Sheng screw air compressor until specified oil level.
(11) Restart compressor. Check oil level and working temperature. When
compressor is functioning normally, the oil level should be above the
centerline of the oil sight.
(12) After the compressor has been stopped, it may take 2 minutes for the bubbles

at the oil sight to disappear and this is considered normal.

(13) At the end of oil change, mark the name of oil at the oil-filling port. Do not mix
with other oil.
Ⅱ. Instrument Panel

Ⅲ. Adjustment of Pressure System

1. Adjustment of system pressure
(1) There are two adjustment screws on the pressure switch. One is the pressure
adjustment screw. Rotate adjustment screw counter-clockwise to raise pressure
setting.
(2) The other adjustment screw is the pressure differential adjustment screw; jt can be
rotated clockwise to raise pressure differential setting. If the working pressure is
0.7MPa (G), the pressure differential is 0.2MPa, then the pressure of zero／full load
is 0.7MPa (G) and 0.5MPa (G).
(3) The pressure switch is set before delivery so it should be adjusted further. The
pressure differential can be adjusted according to on-site conditions. The minimum
pressure differential should not be lower than 0.15MPa.

2. Capacity adjustment (inverse-proportion valve)

The capacity adjustment system is used to adjust the discharge volume of the
compressor, in combination with on-site air consumption to achieve the most economic
and power-saving operating efficiency. If the pressure switch is set at 7kg／cm2 for zero
load, and 5kg／cm2 for full load, the action pressure setting of the inverse-proportion
valve and capacity adjustment valve should be set at 6.5-6.8kg／cm2G; the compressor
will start capacity adjustment at 6.5kg／cm2G to reduce air output. Rotate counter

 SHC Petroleum Equipment(Bei Jing)CO.,Limited

clockwise to lower pressure setting.

3. Adjustment of operating temperature
After 20 minutes of compressor operation, adjust the degree of water retuning valve
opening. Control the discharge temperature under full load so it is around 80℃. (No
adjustment is needed for air-cooled type.)
Ⅴ. Safety Valve
The discharge pressure of safety valve is already set before delivery and sealed. Do not
adjust. If any malfunction occurs, please contact Fu Sheng service department.
Ⅵ. Replacement of Consumable
1. Air filter
When compressor has operated for 1,000 hours, or the air filter pressure differential
indicator illuminates, remove the air filter and clean it. Normally it should be replaced
every 3,000 hours, and shorter interval for poorer environment.
2. Pre filter
It should be removed and cleaned every 1-2 week but not necessarily replaced. Shorter
interval for poorer environment.
3. Oil filter
The first time replacement should take place after 500 hours of compressor operation,
and normally every 3,000 hours afterwards.
4. Oil fine separator
When the oil fine separator pressure differential indicator illuminates, or the oil pressure
is higher than the air pressure, then inspection must be performed and oil fine separator
must be replaced. The normal replacement interval is 3000-4000 hours. Shorter interval
for poorer environment.
The replacement procedure for oil fine separator is:
(1) After stopping the air compressor, close air outlet and open water drainage valve,
and verify that there is no pressure in the system.
(2) Dismantle the pipeline above the oil air tank, and remove the pressure-maintaining
valve.
(3) Remove oil return pipe.
(4) Remove the fixation bolts on the upper cover of oil air tank, and rotate the shaft bolt
at the edge of upper cover to slightly lift the upper cover. Then rotate upper cover
counter clockwise (viewed from top) to open it.
(5) Remove oil fine separator and replace with new one.
(6) Assemble the oil air tank in reverse sequence.

Attention
Prevent unclean items from falling into oil tank when replacing oil fine separator,
thus maintaining the normal operation of air compressor.
5. Lubricant oil
First time oil change should be performed after about 500 hours of compressor
operation. Then every 3000-4000 hours afterwards (discharge temperature between 80
to 90℃). If environment is poor and discharge temperature is higher, the interval should
be shortened.
