Filling with Oil

Make sure to use recommended oil. Add oil of the same oil type from the same
manufacturer. Switching over to another oil type can require flushing of the screw
compressor.
NOTE: Replace the oil filter with every oil change.
1. Switch off the system, prevent it from being switched back on without authorization.
2. Through the filler neck on the separating tank, add oil up to the maximum level and reinsert the screw plug,
turning firmly onto the filler neck by hand.
3. Switch on the screw compressor and allow it to run for approximately three minutes.
4. Switch off the system, prevent it from being switched back on without authorization.
5. Top off the oil to the maximum level.
6. Switch on the screw compressor and return to normal use.

UNDERSTAND ALL
STEPS BELOW BEFORE TURNING ON
POWER .
1. Check oil level (See Figure 8).
2. If it has been longer than 12 weeks since
the compressor has been operated the air
end must be primed with 8 ounces of oil.
Before resuming
operation, the electrical
equipment and all safety-relevant units
must be checked for leaks and proper
function. Loose connections must be
refastened and damaged lines must be
replaced.
Screw compressor systems that are
switched off, shut down, or stored for
longer than 12 weeks cannot be placed
into operation again until after the following
steps have been carried out:
a. Manually rotate the compact module
screw compressor in the rotation
direction several times.
b. With the compressor system stopped,
add approximately 8 ounces of oil
(same oil type as in the air end) into
the rotor chamber (see Figure 9).
c. Once again, manually rotate the
compressor module compressor stage
in the rotation direction several times.
d. Check the oil level in the air end and
top off if necessary
(see Maintenance section).
e. Monitor operation of the compressor
system for at least 15 minutes, but at
least until the steadystate temperature
is reached (continuous operating
temperature).
3. Direction of rotation must be checked.
Operation of the air end for more than 2
seconds in the wrong direction will destroy
the screw compressor.
