Rotor shape:
The screw shape developed for EU COMP places high demands on energy
efficiency and vibration-optimized quiet running. The male rotor has a convex
rotor shape, the female rotor has a concave one. The rotors have tooth
combinations selected to fit each other, which in partice is considered optimal in
the work area under consideration. The male rotor has 5 teeth, the female rotor
has 6. This tooth combination brings about the most effective energy increase in
the compression medium, due to the similar circumference speed ratios of the
two rotors, and thus reduces excessive fluid flowback. This ultimately results in
optimized volumetric efficiency.

The shaped parts, machined with high-precision grinding tools, correspond to the
current world standard.
Efficiency:
The EU COMP screw compressors, compressor medium flowback through the gab
between the rotors and the housing is minimized with the aim of optimizing the
specific power consumption [kW/m3/min]. In order to keep internal leakages
losses low, the clearance between all components must be observed very
precisely.
Extensive studies were conducted during the development of the rotors in order
to become familiar with the influence of the machining processes on the
dimensional stability of the rotor geometry. Analyses provide information on the

precise distribution of temperature and force over the rotors under operating
conditions.
In order to get closer to the aim of isothermal compression, the cooling of the
compressor medium by the injected oil is calculated precisely. By optimizing the
compressor heat, the workload of the compressor is reduced. The energy
efficiency of your compressor system is thus also increased.
Maintenance:
EU COMP screw compressors have been designed with the aim of enabling
maintenance work with minimum effort. The components affected here are easy
for the user to access and maintain. The number of components has been
reduced, on the condition however of maximum compressor reliability. The seals
and bearing were thus generously dimensioned for a long service life and a high
degree of operational reliability.
Reliability:
The highest aims during the design of the EU COMP screw compressors were
energy efficiency, reliability and operational safety.

difficult operating conditions. Low process tolerances during the production of the
major components of a screw compressor stage on predominantly European
production machines ensure reliable operation.

No leakage:
Leakage losses, whether external or internal, are never desirable. We take this
requirement of our customers very seriously and have taken appropriate
precautions in the development of the EU COMP screw compressor stages.

The housing components are secured against leakage with proven technology.
Seals at critical points are obviously designed with O-rings.
The use of shaft sealing systems with double lip seal ensures your customers the
greatest possibile degree of security against leakage during the operation of the
compressors.

air.
Internal leakage losses from flowback of the compression medium through the
gap between the rotors and between the rotors and the housing is kept as low as
makes technical sense through the use of the latest manufacturing technology.

Long bearing service life, quiet running of your EU COMP screw compressor stage
and low vibrations are ensured by the use of high-precision-manufactured rotors.
Male and female rotors are housed in precision roller bearings from globally
recognized bearing manufacturers. High-precision design of the outlet contour
ensures uniform output of the compressed medium from the compression
chamber.

Belt and gear driven air ends serve for screw block operation in conjunction with a
drive unit. A widely used method of power transmission for stationary rotary
screw compressors is the belt drive. This method offers the option of establishing
the required transmission ratio by the selection of a suitable pulley diameter.
Pulley production is also less expensive than that of gears for gear units. Belt
drives are generally more efficient and flexible in terms of changed operating
variables than gear solutions. In both cases (belt and gear unit), transmission
losses of about 0.8% occur. A significant advantage of the direct drive is that
such loss does not occur. Important information on correct belt tension and pulley
alignment is provided in the annex.
In the case of gear driven air ends, any required block speed can be achieved at a
given motor speed by the selection of a suitable transmission ratio. EU COMP
offers a wide range of gear transmission ratios to meet specific customer
requirements.
EU COMP offers its customers two gear driven air end versions: Gear case in a
horizontal (”GH”) and vertical (”GV”) position with respect to the drive shaft of
the male rotor.
Due to the horizontal and vertical design of the gear driven air end, it can be
flexibly adapted to the varying mounting conditions within the machine.

EU SELECT sizing software
Manpower, their expertise, and their know-how is the basis of successful
engineering. Yet, providing the most capable aids helps to focus on the essential,
and not to loose any time. To fulfill customer´s requirements in regard to
optimized selection of compressor air ends and related components, we offer the
use of EU SELECT – a completely newly developped sizing program. It offers
detailed data an all of our screw compressor air ends up to 200kW power
consumption. It enables the user not only to size the compressor air ends itself,
but to calculate complete screw compressor packages. The program is operated
using the computer´s mouse to easily add and alter project details for an
optimum screw compressor application. The process of sizing and selection is
simplified and more efficient than ever before.

Recommendation for choosing the lubricant
Lubricants consist of the basic components basic oil and additives. Parameters
such as viscosity, temperature behaviour, oxidation stability, emulsification
tendency and further, specified below, are essentially influenced by the additives.
For securing of their function, screw compressors need an oil injection, which is
to take over the substantial three functions:
Further functions are the avoidance of corrosion (for all rotating parts of the
screw compressor), the stability against oxidation and perfect application in the
deep and high temperature operation condition. It must have a high thermal
stability and be resistant to the absorption of gases and to the dilution of gases. A
long life span is preferred.
Type of lubricant:
EU COMP recommend the use of age-resisting and before corrosion protecting oil,
which does not have a tendency for foaming. Mineral as well as synthetic oils can
be used as lubricant. The recognition of synthetic oils is increasing. The lubricant
should fulfil all requirements, which are described here and they never should be
harmful to the compressor system and environment. Further more, wear-reducing
additives have to be implemented for protection of bearings and gear system
against friction, so that a load carrying capability of FZG- (fretting test) loadstage
9 is guaranteed at least.
Besides this, the used lubricant has to correspond to the general valid standards:
Detailed tests and relating recommendations for special lubricant brands are not
possible for us due to the abundance of the oils present at the market and their
quickly changing characteristics. Furthermore, the different characteristics of our
customers´ screw compressor packages have a crucial impact on the lubricant´s
life span.
Page 18/27
22.7.2010
EU COMP GmbH, Reinhard Wundsam
Selection of lubricants:
injection temperature up to up to up to
of lubricant 50°C 60°C 70°C
ISO-viscosity class VG32 VG46 VG68
„ISO VG“ is the abbreviation for „ISO viscosity grade“ and indicates the
classification of liquid industrial lubricants in viscosity classes. The testing is
according to DIN 51519.
The viscosity describes the resistance, which a liquid opposes to the flowing.
According to ISO VG, we differentiate between the dynamic and the kinematic
viscosity. In the following, we are referring to the kinematic viscosity ([mm2/s] =
cSt formerly).
Relating to liquid industrial lubricants, the min and max of the kinematic viscosity
(temperature of operation 40°C) are as follows:
In the case of a very low number of revolutions of the male rotor (< 15 m/s), we
suggest to use the next higher viscosity class.
According to DIN ISO 3016, the pourpoint describes the temperature, whereby,
when cooling down, the lubricant just remains fluid (under determined conditions).
At least, it should be 5°C under the lowest ambient temperature. Self
inflammations are to be avoided by a higher flash point. According to DIN ISO
2592, this is the lowest temperature, when a vapor-air-mixture inflames by
external inflammation. In each case, the flash point should be higher than 200°C.
• water:
In order to avoid serious destruction of the lubricating film and relating
damages of bearings and gears, in each case even small content of water
in the oil circuit must be excluded. This is achieved by raising the
discharge temperature to be higher than the dew point.
Page 19/27
22.7.2010
EU COMP GmbH, Reinhard Wundsam
• foreign particles:
Heavy bearing damages can occur caused by foreign particles, for
example grinding residues, salts or impact by gases in industrial plants or
in the off-
shore ambient. Therefore it is to be paid attention to an appropriate
filtration of the lubricant. According to DIN ISO 4572 (multi pass test1), a
grade of filtration of β25 (c) ≥ 75 is recommendable.
Please note that even new lubricants may contain foreign particles. A barrel of
new oil can contain foreign particles similar in volume to that of a bar of
chocolate. EU COMP strongly advise to filter all oil before filling in the oil circuit.
1
Due to the changes in the way particles are measured and the fact that a new test dust (ISO MTD) is now
utilized, a new standard for multi-pass testing was necessary. This new standard, ISO 16889, was replaced the
old Multi-Pass Test Standard, ISO 4572.

Screw compressor stage integrated in the compressor
package
The functions of the screw compressor block are defined in the following main
working steps:
When both rotors turn, the profile gaps reduce thus producing the compression.
Compression starts when the profile teeth close the suction duct.
The effective flow rate at the compressor block according to ISO1217 differs
from that of the entire system and defines the delivery flow of the screw
compressor stage....
Prior to comparing effective flow rates, it must always be ensured that the values
refer to the compressor block or to the entire system.
A non-return valve in the discharge nozzle of the air end and upstream of the oil
separator prevents the compressed air from flowing back from the oil separator
into the air end (e.g. when switching off the compressor). This prevents oil from
entering the compression chamber or flowing out through the suction duct.
The mechanical separation of air and oil takes place in the oil separator by means
of baffles or cycloids introduce the hot and compressed air/oil mixture. A
separating effect of up to 99% can be achieved with a well designed oil
separator.
Page 21/27
22.7.2010
EU COMP GmbH, Reinhard Wundsam
The compressed air is separated almost completely from the oil in the following
fine separator (residual oil content 3...5 ppm).
Following the fine separator, the hot compressed air, before reaching the air
aftercooler, flows to a minimum pressure valve which maintains a defined
minimum pressure in the oil separator. This is important in case the compressor
compresses against suction pressure and the oil supply is still maintained via the
injection points.
A safety valve in way of the oil separator prevents the permissible maximum
pressure being exceeded.
Oil circuit:
From the oil reservoir, the hot oil (under final compression pressure) discharged
from the compressed air flows to the oil thermostat which either passes the oil
through the oil cooler or directly to the injection point on the compressor casing
via an oil restrictor. This thermostat controller cooler bypass ensures a constant
oil injection temperature. In both cases, the oil flows through an oil filter in order
to prevent the entry of foreign particles into the compression chamber.
In the oil cooler with combined radial flow fan, the excess heat is discharged to
the cooling medium (usually air). The discharged heat energy corresponds to
almost 100% of the input electrical energy!
The injected oil flow rate increases approximately linear with the final
compression pressure. It can be calculated in addition to other essential technical
data for screw compressor construction from EU COMP sizing software EU
SELECT.
Page 22/27
22.7.2010
EU COMP GmbH, Reinhard Wundsam
Fig: Correlation between the injected oil flow rate and final compression
pressure based on the example of EU37.
The use of an oil pump in the oil circuit is unnecessary. The necessary pressure is
built-up by the pressure difference between the final compression pressure in the
oil tank and the pressure at the oil injection point of the compressor block.
The pressure at all oil injection points on the compressor is lower than the final
compression pressure, but it is higher than the compressor suction pressure. A
minimum pressure of 3 - 4 bar normally prevails at the oil injection point to ensure
a sufficient supply of lubricating oil at the compressor injection points. If the final
compression pressure should fall to ambient pressure (e.g. when switching off the
system causing a fall in pressure in the oil separator), the previously mentioned
non-return valve prevents the lubricating oil from flowing back into the
compression chamber.
Drive:
For stationary screw compressor systems used for industrial purposes, electric
drive motors (three-phase asynchronous motors) are normally used.
Page 23/27
22.7.2010
EU COMP GmbH, Reinhard Wundsam
Diesel engines are used for mobile systems. Motor speeds in North America are
typically 1740 and 3450 rpm.
The motor input power is that which the drive motor draws from the electrical
system. It differs from the motor output power (mechanical power on the motor
shaft) by the motor losses that are characterised by the motor efficiency. This
includes separate fan motors or also fan impellers on the drive shaft that influence
the motor loss. The rated motor power is the mechanical power transmitted to
the motor shaft, which the motor is able to output at rated voltage and rated
current under 100% load (data on motor rating plate).
Page 24/27
22.7.2010
EU COMP GmbH, Reinhard Wundsam
Compressor shaft power
In order to adjust the flow rate of the compressor to the fluctuating requirement
of the compressed air system, control of the compressor is necessary. The flow
rate is regulated between the adjustable limiting values for maximum and
minimum pressure. The following types of control are shown below:
Start-stop control
No-load control
Speed control
Start-stop control:
The compressor assumes the operating states full load and rest. The drive motor
starts on reaching a specific minimum pressure and initially switches off again
when a set maximum pressure is reached. This type of control is determined by
the permissible operating frequency of the driving electric motor. Exceeding this
maximum value would activate the necessary overload protection of the motor in
order to prevent excessive heating. The compressor itself is not subject to any
operating frequency limitation.
Page 25/27
22.7.2010
EU COMP GmbH, Reinhard Wundsam
No-load control:
In contrast to start-stop control, the motor is not switched off on reaching the
maximum pressure, but moves between no-load and full load. It becomes
apparent that the advantage of the start-stop control (lower energy consumption)
cannot be achieved due to the no-load costs of this type of control.
Speed control:

Dew point:
Atmospheric air always contains water vapour. This is removed from the screw
compressor by suction. The moisture produced depends mainly on the relative
humidity. This depends on the air temperature and weather conditions. The
absolute humidity is the amount of water vapour contained in a cubic centimetre
of air. The saturation level is the maximum amount of water vapour a cubic
centimetre of air is able to absorb at the respective temperature.
Failure to reach the pressure dew point will reduce the life expectancy of the
screw compressor and downstream pneumatic system. For this reason, a
sufficiently high temperature (above the pressure dew point!) in the compression
chamber and downstream components is necessary in order to prevent bearing
damage and mixed friction.
The use of dryers for the removal of condensate from the compressed air system
is necessary.

Determination of the sound power level:
For the assessment of "how loud" a compressor runs, ISO 3744 recommends
determining the sound power level of noise sources using sound pressure level
measurements. In order to find reliable comparative values, it does not suffice to
rely on subjective hearing only.
To relate the contents of the directive ISO 3744 is the not the intended aim of
this operation manual, so that only reference is made to the same.
There are different measuring surfaces with specific measuring paths which
generally determine whether the noise source is located between two reflecting
planes or, e.g. on one reflecting plane:
Page 4/21
22.7.2010
EU COMP GmbH, Reinhard Wundsam
Fig: Microphone arrangement got a small machine (measuring distance 1m)
The sound pressure level concept derived from the sound power level refers
always to a specific distance to the noise source. In the case of stationary
machines, this is normally 1m, for mobile machines, this is 7m (CAGI Pneurop).
The sound pressure level should also be specified together with ambient data. If
this data is not provided, these are free field measurements, where sound waves
are unable to be reflected through any objects.

• Sound absorption
• Vibration insulation
• Vibration damping
• Noise source damping

Protection of anti-friction bearings
A typical cause is material flaking on the running faces in the case of fatigue
damage. Significant damage can often be prevented by looking out for irregular
running or listening for unusual noise. Sudden bearing damage can be best
identified by monitoring the bearing temperature. This kind of damage occurs,
e.g. on lubrication failure.
Incorrect lubrication:
• Unsuitable lubricant
• Lubricant deficiency
• Excessive lubrication
Please make sure, that you avoid all given possibilities for failure of bearings.

Fundamentals for failure free operation:
The following is a general overview of steps you will proceed with to make sure,
that no failure will happen with your air end, and compressor.
Assembling:
• Be sure, that the driving motor turns around in the correct direction:
1. Belt/Direct driven: Anti clockwise, watching on the facial side with driving
shaft.
2. Gear driven: Clockwise, watching on the facial side with driving shaft.
• Do not transmit mechanical tension on the air end´s casing in order to avoid
touching of rotors inside the compression chamber.
• Do not mount the compression chamber and the discharge port on one plate,
which is not necessarily 100% flat. This can cause not only air leakages, but also
deflection of the housing.

Better is to use two separate fixing plates or flexible tubes as discharge line:
• Using a pulley-belt arrangement, you are free to choose the angle α for your
assembling:

• Please use a distance sleeve to fix the inner ring of the lip seal system.
Fig: Motor adapter housing for alignment of motor and air end
• To be noted when adjusting the belt tension are the following maximum
radial forces that can be transmitted to the male rotor:

EU COMP GmbH, Reinhard Wundsam
Fig: Maximum radial forces for male rotor shaft (all numbers in [N])
• Separate sections with additional casing and sound insulation increase the
sound emission reduction effect. Such sections are conceivable for the cooling air
to be sucked in or a dryer to be possibly be integrated.
Page 12/21
22.7.2010
EU COMP GmbH, Reinhard Wundsam
• Make sure, that you choose a driving motor with bearing system against
axial movement on B-side. Also use a flexible coupling, so that any axial
movement is not damaging the gear box´bearing system.
• Pipes inside and outside the compressor should not be too long and not
have too many bends as this will result in considerable flow losses. Pipes should
also not have too many connecting points in order to prevent leaks.
• Vibrating elements within the machine should not come into contact with
other components in order to avoid sound and vibration transmission.
• Use the bottom of the machine as an oil tray in order to avoid oil spillage
in the event of an oil leak.
o Sound insulation
o Sound absorption
o Vibration insulation
o Vibration damping
o Sound source damping
• Use sound insulation mats, e.g. of foam. A sound emission of only 72 db (A)
under full load is possible! High density porous materials are recommended for
this purpose (foam: 30 kg/m3)
Page 13/21
22.7.2010
EU COMP GmbH, Reinhard Wundsam
• As previously mentioned, the use of acoustic barriers between the noise
source and outside of the machine (e.g. additional sections) are useful sound
insulation options.
• Provide the oil tank with baffles and cycloid introduction of the hot,
pressurised air/oil mixture in order to achieve a high separating effect as possible.
• Counteract foam formation in the oil tank with a larger oil tank volume so that
the oil has sufficient time to reform from the foam to liquid.
• Provide a sight-glass on the oil tank in order to monitor the oil level.
• The air sucked in for entry into the suction filter should be as cold as possible.
To be taken into account are the flow characteristics of the cooling air and
alignment of the suction of the suction filter.
• Avoid any heat transfer between the various heat sources on the air end,
drive motor, oil tank and cooler. Note that hot air rises and take radiated heat into
account.
• The introduced cooling air should cool the drive motor as well as the air end.
Page 14/21

• To be noted is that the efficiency of the fine separator filter in the
standard version depends largely on the temperature:
Fig: Residual oil content after the fine separator as a function of the
temperature of the circulating compressed air.
• Avoid any foreign particles (for example dirt, or painting color) to enter the
lip seal system (for example by dirty ambient, or coloring the lip seal sleeve.
These would increase the possibility of lip seal leaking immediately.
Fig: Protect the lip seal system by avoiding any foreign particles.

incorrectness will cause failure of the whole system.

• Avoid any forces on the casing, or connected parts except the turning on the
driving shaft of airend. This could cause casing leakage or even touching of
rotors in the airend.
Fig: Protect the lip seal system by avoiding any foreign particles.
• The air, which is sucked into the suction valve, and the airend must be as cool
as possible. Please make sure, that suction pipe of suction filter is far away
from hot temperature, and also sources of dirt.
Fig: Suction pipe far away from hot temperature, and sources of dirt.

• Avoid any unnecessary vibration of airend. Vibration always means sound
emission, and instability of the system.
Fig: No mounting of additional parts to the airend, which can cause vibration.
• Avoid overfilling of the oiltank, which could cause backflow of oil through the
airend, and outside the suction filter. Also this would effect heavily on
efficiency of airend, and bearing life because of heavy load for the bearings.

See the arrangement of filling port together with oil level indicator:
• Suction valve may not be 100% closed in off-load mode, as the upcoming
vacuum will create non-stability of the male rotor, and cause it´s axial
movement back, and forwards. This finally will create high sound-emission,
and vibration.

• Additionally to the bypass, mount a piping from the oil-tank to the suction
valve (downstream of valve butterfly) to build up a counter pressure in off-load
to stabilize the pair of rotor against axial movement. No reason to supply this
counter-pressure upstream the suction valve. This will only vent the air filter.
