3.3 Operation of the Compressor
Series of HERTZ screw air compressor HSC – HSC FRECON / FRECON PLUS Direct Drive has
proven its quality and reliability over years is an heavy duty, with limited maintenance screw type air
compressor.
3.3.1 Drive and Control System

An electric motor is used to operate HERTZ HSC – HSC FRECON /FRECON PLUS Direct Drive
Series Compressors. Electric Motor provides mechanical drive to air-end unit for producing
compressed air. This system is composed chassis, air-end unit, motor, coupling and bell housings.
HERTZ HSC – HSC FRECON /FRECON PLUS compressor Series operated and controlled by
electronic control system. This control system legal rights belongs to HERTZ KOMPRESSOREN.
Figure 5 Drive System
3.3.2 Pressure System

Pressure system is composed of; air-end unit, separator tank, separator, minimum pressure valve
and oil return line (scavenge).
Do not remove any lid or part when there exists pressure inside compressor. First stop
the compressor and ensure that all pressure is discharged.
Ø Compressed air-oil mixture coming from air-end unit goes to separator tank.
Ø The separator tank decreases the oil that air carries by its structural property.
24
Figure 7 Pressure System of hsc 75 Direct Drive Model Figure 6 Pressure System of HSC 22 Direct Drive Model
25
Ø The air-oil mixture in the separator tank goes to the separator filter. The separator filter keeps the
particles by its structural property. Only air can penetrate in.
Ø During this filtering process, a small amount of oil mist becomes to liquid and drain with its gravity to
bottom of filter.
Ø The oil under separator passes through the scavenge line by the pressure difference between tank
and air-end unit is sent back to air-end unit.
Ø The minimum pressure valve on the cover of separator tank keeps the pressure at 2 - 2,5 bars when
the compressor is at load. This pressure value is necessary for oil circulation.
Ø The minimum pressure valve prevents the return of compressed air from the line to compressor
during the compressor is switched off or operating at idle. When the compressor is first started up, if
the line pressure (external pressure) is less then 4 bars, the minimum pressure valve keeps the
separator tank pressure at 4 bars until the pressure is equal to external pressure.
Ø In case of any failure and blockage there is a safety valve for preventing against excessive rise of
separator tank pressure.
0
Ø When the air-end unit's temperature reaches to 108 C for stopping the compressor, there is a
temperature sensor. By means of the data received from sensor, electronic controller unit stops the
compressor.
3.4 Intake and Control System

It provides the operation of the compressor at
adjusted pressure interval by eliminating the
hazardous dust that the compressor may absorb
from external environment. That system has two
subsystem named intake system and intake control
system.
Figure 8 FRECON 5/7 PLUS Compact Model
26
Figure 10 Intake System of HSC 75 Direct Drive Model Figure 9 Intake System of HSC 22 Direct Drive Model
27
3.4.1 Intake System
The dusts inside the air absorbed by the compressor enter everywhere that oil penetrate with their
corrosive effects and corrodes them. The life of bearings, o-rings and the gaskets are rapidly
decreased due to increased friction. In addition with the corrosive effect of dust, the blocked filters
absorb less air and the capacity of the compressor drops, operating temperature rises and this
adversely affects negatively the internal accessories of compressor and the hoses rapidly hardened,
bearings are corroded, oil is more rapidly contaminated as cooling air and intake air is limited.
Shortly, the cleaning and maintenance activities not performed on time causes energy loss (financial
loss) instead of saving.
Intake system is composed of panel filter outside of the compressor, the intake filter inside your
compressor and connection hose.
3.4.2 Intake Control System

The intake control system is composed of; intake valve, solenoid valves, control air line hoses and
safety pressure switch. In the systems with electronic controller unit or inverter, pressure sensors are
used for obtaining pressure data.
The aim of intake control system is to operate the compressor in most economic way.
Ø During the start up of compressor, the intake system keep closed and prevents
unnecessary loading and establish an impact free start up.
Ø When the demanded pressure value is reached, it closes the intake again and enables the
rotation of compressor motor by wasting minimum power. Instead of rapid start up and
stopping, only the air intake of the compressor is blocked and economic operation is
supplied.
Ø According the pressure on the utility line, the electronic controller unit or pressure switch
commands to intake valve. The intake valve closes and opens the compressor’s air intake
this way.
Ø When the compressor is stopped the pressure in the separator tank moves in the opposite
direction tries to turn the air-end in opposite direction. The intake valve at this moment
operates as a check valve and closes intake and prevents the backward rotation of air-end
and splashing of the oil backwards.
28
3.5 Cooling and Lubricating Systems
The cooling system of the compressor is composed; radiator, cooling fan, oil filter, seperator filter,
connection hoses and piping. Some models have optionally thermostatic valve.
Figure 11 Cooling and Lubricating System of HSC 22

Direct Drive Model
Figure 12 Cooling and Lubricating System of HSC 75
Direct Drive Model
29
Ø The pressure in separator tank pushes the oil to cooler, from cooler to oil filter and from there on to
the low pressure side in the air-end unit.
Ø Oil passes through oil filter before entering air-end unit and harmful particles are separated
Ø Big amount of oil injected on the rotors of inside air-end unit; this provides the sealing by getting
stuck on rotors while the rotors are compressing air. This oil at the same time lubricates the bearings
of rotors
At screw compressors oil have three basic functions:
· Acts as a cooler by absorbing the heat formed by friction of rotors and compression of air in
the air-end unit.
· Establishes sealing by forming an oil film between the stator and rotors.
· Lubricates the bearing of rotors.
Ø Air-oil mixture is injected into separator tank from air-end unit. As a result of special design of the
separator tank and by means of air flow within tank the oil particles in the air-oil mixture combine
with each other become heavy and they are thrown to the inner surface of tank. Thus, the oil does
not completely attack to the separator and it works comfortably and long.
Ø The oil mist remaining in air is kept by the filter when passing through the separator filter.
Ø The air which is free from oil passes through the after cooler and is sent to the air line.
Ø The remaining oil in the separator tank is cooled in the oil cooler and again sent to oil filter.
Separator tank have three functions:
· Making pre-oil separation process with its special design,
· Preserving the compressor oil,
· Preserving the separator filter.

4 Optional Cooling Systems
HERTZ KOMPRESSOREN has two type optional cooling system:
1. Water cooled system
2. Heat recovery system
4.1 Water cooled system:

Water cooled systems are cooling the oil at the oil circuit and the air at the compressed air outlet with heat
exchanger. This system is optional at HERTZ screw compressor series. These systems designed relevant to
compressor capacity with special heat exchanger for efficient system cooling.
Heat Exchanger: Cooling the oil at the oil circuit and the compressed air.
31
4.1.1 Brazed Heat Exchangers (BPHE)
The front plate of brazed heat exchangers (BPHE) is marked with an arrow. The purpose of this marker is to
indicate the front side of the BPHE and the location of the inner and outer circuits/channels. With the arrow
pointing up, the left side (port F1, F3) is the inner circuit and the right side (port F2, F4) is the outer circuit.
The outer circuit has a slightly lower pressure drop as it contains more channel. Ports F1/F2/F3/F4 are
situated on the front of the heat exchanger.
4.1.2 Construction of BPHE:

The BPHE is in principle built up by a plate package of corrugated channel plates between front and rear
cover-plate package. The cover plate packages consist of sealing plates, blind rings and cover plates.
During the vacuum-brazing process, a brazed joint is formed that every contact point between two plates.
The design creates a heat exchanger that consists of two separate circuits.
Sealing plates are used to seal off the space between the cover plate and the first and the last channel plate.
The number of cover plates varies, with the type of the compressor. Materials that used at heat exchanger of
the compressor are stainless steel and vacuum brazed with pure copper.
4.1.3 Design Conditions and Approvals:

Please check the label on the heat exchanger for detailed explanation.
BPHE’s are approved by a number of independent bodies. These are;
· Europe, Pressure Equipment Directive (PED)

· USA, Underwriters Laboratories (UL)
· Japan, The High Pressure Gas Safety Institute of Japan (KHK)
· Lloyds Register, Great Britain;
· Det Norske Veritas (DNV), Norway;
· American Bureau of Shipping (ABS), USA;
· Korean Register of Shipping (KR), Korea.
For approved unit the data on the label must not be exceeded.
32
4.1.4 Mounting:
Never expose the unit to pulsations or excessive cyclic pressure or temperature changes. It is also important
that no vibrations are transfers to the heat exchanger. If there is a risk of this, install vibration absorbers.
Also we advise to use a rubber mounting strip between the BPHE and the mounting clamp. In different
versions and locations, are available on the BPHEs as an option.
1. Supported from the bottom
2. Sheet metal bracket (rubber insert between bracket and exchanger)
3. Crossbar and bolts (rubber insert between crossbar and exchanger)
4. Equipped with mounting stud bolts on the front or back cover plate
4.1.5 Strainers
If any of the media contains particles larger than 1 mm (0.04 inch), we recommend that a strainer with a size
of 16-20 mesh (number of openings per inch) is installed before the exchanger. The particles could
otherwise block the channels, causing bad performance, increased pressure drop and risk of freezing.
4.1.6 Insulations (Optional)

Insulation for Refrigerant Applications
BPHE insulation is recommended for evaporators, condensers or district heating

applications. For refrigeration, use extruded insulation sheets. For this option
please contact HERTZ customer service.
Insulation for Heating Applications
For heating applications, various types of insulation boxes can be used. The
working temperature range defines which insulation is recommended. For this
option please contact HERTZ customer service.
33
4.1.7 Cleaning of The BPHE
Thanks to the normally very high degree of turbulence in BPHEs there is a self-cleaning effect in the
channels. However, in some applications the fouling tendency can be very high. In such cases it is always
possible to clean the exchanger by circulating a cleaning liquid. Use a tank with weak acid, 5% phosphoric
acid or, if the exchanger is frequently cleaned, 5% oxalic acid. Pump the cleaning liquid through the
exchanger. For optimum cleaning, the cleaning solution flow rate should be a minimum of 1.5 times to
normal flow rate, preferably in a back flush mode. After use, do not forget to rinse the heat exchanger
carefully with clean water. A solution of 1-2% sodium hydroxide (NaOH) or sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO 3)
before the last rinse ensures that all acid is neutralized. Clean at regular intervals. For further information
about cleaning of the BPHE please consult HERTZ technical service.
4.1.8 Storage
BPHEs are to be stored dry. The temperature should not below 17°C and not over 50°C.
4.1.9 Compressor Cooling Water Type:

Water used for system cooling must be non precipitated, relevant pH value and separated from mud or
particles that clogged pipes. Following table shows the chemical values of relevant compressor cooling
water type. Do not use sea water for cooling water. Sea water have harmful effects and damage to the
compressor parts especially heat exchanger. In case of using sea water, HERTZ KOMPRESSOREN has the
right for avoiding terms of warranty.
Corrosion Resistance of Water Composition:
pH mg/l ≥6
Chloride (Cl)* mg/l ≤300
Free Chlorine (Cl2) mg/l <1
Total Hardness mg/l 4-8,5
Water Pollution NTU 1
Total Molten content mg/l 15

34
Besides at low temperatures cooling water which stored outside the facilities can be freeze. For protecting
cooling water to be frozen, use anti-freeze or internal storage heater into the tank.
4.1.10 Heat Exchanger Maintenance:
· Always mount the heat exchanger vertical position.

· Pay attention to liquid inlet placed at the heat exchanger be opposite sided.
· For protecting heat exchanger for clogging, place filter which keeping particles larger than 1mm, to
the cold water inlet.
· When heat exchanger performance decreases; clean the heat exchanger with non-flammable
cleaner (detergent or weak acid) opposite circulation to the normal flow direction. If necessary
remove the heat exchanger. After cleaning heat exchanger must be rinse with water.

4.2 Heat Recovery Systems
Heat Recovery at the Air Cooled Screw Compressors
• At air cooled screw compressors, air used for cooling oil and compressed air at the system.
0
• While this system is working cooling air at the compressor, temperature increases up to +40-50 C
of ambient temperature and exhausted.
Heat Recovery at the Water Cooled Screw Compressors

• At water cooled compressors (reciprocated, screw etc.), water cooling compressor parts and
pressured liquid gases (Air, N2, CO2, CH4 etc.) with heat exchanger.
• Obtained heated water used for ambient heating, industrial cleaning, boiler embodiment and
veneering.
Heat recovery system is optional at HERTZ screw compressor series. These systems designed relevant to
compressor capacity with special heat exchanger and special heat recovery line for efficient system cooling
and heat recovery.
a- Ambient Heating:
The easiest way of heat recovery at oil or liquid cooled type screw compressors is using the heated, cooling
air by compressor. At the same time heat transferred to the place of use by air line system.
b- Utility Water Heating:

Adding heat exchanger to the oil circuit, air cooled screw compressor producing heated water for any
purposes. For this heat exchanger plates or safe type heat exchanger can be used. This usage can be
changed where heated water using for bath, wash water, room heating, manufacture or cleaning.

5.2.3 HEC 40 Operation Mode
5.2.3.1 Selecting Operating Modes

At power-up, the unit will turn all lights on for 3 seconds in order to allow lamp check. Then it goes in the
STOP mode and the stop led turns on. The compressor may be run through Remote Start signal (upper
display shows rUn for 5 seconds) or by pressing the RUN button. If safety timer has not elapsed, the
run led will flash until expiration of the timer. Then if the pressure is below the start pressure limit then the
compressor will run.
In the occurrence of an alarm the compressor stops immediately and the upper display shows the
alarm code. A comprehensive list of alarm codes is given in chapter 3.6.2.4.
The compressor may be stopped with Remote Stop signal (upper display shows StP for 5 seconds) or
the STOP button.
5.2.3.2 Compressor Stop Procedure

STOP LED starts flashing. If the compressor is loaded, then the LOAD relay will release and the compressor
continues to run during safety timer or unload timer (whichever is longer). At this step, operation may be
resumed by pressing the RUN button. If STOP button is pressed during compressor operating, it
will immediately stops. The stop LED flashes until the compressor comes to complete stop.
48
When STOP button is pressed, if the compressor is running unloaded, then it will continue to
run until expiration of unload timer. The compressor may be immediately stopped by pressing
again the STOP button.
5.2.3.3 Compressor Start Procedure

If mains phase voltages and frequency are between preset limits and the phase order is correct then
POWER led will turn on. The compressor may run only when the power led is on. Otherwise it cannot run.
The Run mode of operation is selected by pressing the RUN button or by sending REMOTE
START/STOP signal (if enabled). At this position, when the pressure falls below Start Pressure (or pressure
switch closes) the unit decides to run the compressor.
Before running the compressor the STAR relay output becomes active. After Delay Between Relays Timer
LINE relay will be activated. Thus the motor starts in star mode. After Star Timer the STAR relay opens and
after Star/Delta Transition Timer the DELTA relay operates. After Timer before Loading the LOAD relay
operates and the compressor starts producing compressed air.
5.2.3.4 Compressor Unloading and Reloading

When the pressure reaches Stop Pressure (or pressure switch opens) then the LOAD relay opens and the
compressor runs unloaded during Unload Timer. If the pressure falls below P05 Start Pressure before the
expiration of the timer, then the LOAD relay energizes again.
5.2.3.5 Compressor Stopping and Restarting

If the pressure stays over the Start Pressure limit (or pressure switch opened) during Unload Timer, then the
DELTA relay will release. After Delay between Relays timer, the LINE relay releases. In this situation, the
RUN led starts flashing. The compressor cannot run again before the expiration of Safety Timer. The
maximum number of starts that the compressor may perform in one hour is adjusted with Maximum Starts
per Hour parameter. If the maximum start count is reached, then the compressor stopping is disabled and it
will continue to run unloaded until the end of 1 hour period.
5.2.4 Alarms and Warnings

Abnormal situations in the compressor are evaluated under 3 different categories as alarms, warnings and
service requests. Warnings are lowest level fault conditions and generate only visual warning, not affecting
the compressor operation. Alarms are highest level fault conditions and cause the compressor to stop
immediately, the alarm relay to become active (if enabled by programming) and visual warning to occur. If
any fault condition occurs, the fault code will appear on the upper display and the related fault category led
turns on. (warning, alarm or service)Alarms and warnings may be reset by pressing the MENU button.
The EMERGENCY STOP alarm cannot be reset by pressing buttons, the alarm signal must be removed.
Service warnings may affect the compressor operation depending on the amount exceeding the
service period.

7 TRANSPORT, STORAGE, INSTALLATION
7.1 Shipping and Transport
7.1.1 Shipping
Ø When the compressor is received, it should be checked for any missing part or damage.
Ø The transport company and HERTZ KOMPRESSOREN must be notified of any damage on the
packing or the compressor.
7.1.2 Transport
Figure 21 HSC 75 Direct Drive Model Transported by Forklift
Ø Lift the compressor by forklift.
Ø Before lifting the compressor, make sure that the forklift blade is well balanced.
86
Figure 22 FRECON 7 PLUS Model Transported by Forklift
Figure 23 FRECON 7 PLUS Model Transported by Lifting Lug
87
Figure 24 HSC 75 Model Transported by Lifting Lug
Ø Ensure that he forklift does not lift the compressor excessively; move slowly and carefully.
Ø If you should lift the compressor with palette, ensure that the compressor is fixed to the palette first.
Never lift the compressor, if the compressor is not properly mounted on the palette or the
connections are damaged. Otherwise, you may cause injuries and damage.
Ø If the forklift is not available, lift it by crane and lifting lug as shown in figure 24 and figure 25.
Ø Retighten the bolts and screws that may be loosened during transportation.
Ø Make sure that all kinds of lifting belts, hooks etc. are in good condition and capable of carrying the
weight of compressor. If you do not know the weight of the compressor, check it.
Ø Make sure that the floor of the compressor is strong enough to carry the compressor weight.
7.1.3 Storage
If compressor has to be stored before installation, do not unpack and store in the following conditions:
0 0
· Temperature must be between 0 C and 50 C for storage.
· Storage area must be dry, under a roof and protected against the weather, vibration and shock.
· HERTZ KOMPRESSOREN products are suitable for a maximum storage period of 6 months. More
than 6 months stored products; oil, oil filter and separator must be change.
88
7.2 Installation of the Compressor and Connections
Figure 25 Installation of the Compressor to the Room
Ø The floor on which the compressor is mounted should be capable of carrying the weight of
compressor and should be flat and dry. Place your compressor on this surface. There is no need to
fixing (anchorage bolt etc) to the floor.
Ø The compressor room should be easily accessible and sufficiently illuminated.
Ø For sufficient service, the compressor room should have a clearance of at least 1.5 m from ceiling
and 1 m from the wall.
Ø Fire and corrosion causing conditions should be prevented in the operation region.
Ø Any pipe load (stretch connections or tensions arise from environmental variations) should be
relayed to compressor by external connections. For this purpose an outlet hose is being delivered
with the compressor. Connect this hose to right after the outlet valve.
Ø If the air supply is above the compressor level, do not enter the compressor connection pipe to the
main pipe from the bottom. The water formed at the compressor outlet may return back during
stopping and idle operation and may impair the o-rings and gaskets of Minimum Pressure Valve.
89
Ø Make sure that the air supply equipment is suitable to the operating pressure of the piping and
fittings and is damage free.
Ø Select the diameter of the air supply, dryer and line filters according to your air supply capacity. (It is
beneficially to select piping of big diameter considering future development of the company).
Ø Establish a separate line for condense discharge of your filter and dryer and air tanks (water
discharge line); this way the floor of the compressor operating place does not unnecessarily get wet.
Ø Put an air exit and electric box in your compressor room for general purpose.
Ø The compressor is manufactured for indoor operation. Suitable room set up plan is shown in figure
20.
Ø In case of different needs in relation to compressor or air supply contact service or sale
representative.
Ø Determine air supply taking into consideration of the company conditions. It will be beneficial to use
a ring line instead of flat line. The pressure drop at the end of flat lines may cause pressure drops, in
case of intermediate high consumption or periodical shock consumption receiver line.
You may find the ideal pipe diameter of your air supply by the following formula:
οܲ ൈ ݀ ହ ൈ ܲ
‫ ܮ‬ൌ
ͶͷͲ ൈ ܳ௖ଵǤ଼ହ
L = The length of pipe line (meter)
DP = Permitted pressure drop (Suggested to be 0,3 bar)
d = Pipe internal diameter (mm)
P = Compressor Outlet pressure (bar)(manometer pressure + ambient pressure)
Qc = Compressor Capacity (liter/second)
Ø The valve, reduction, elbow, tee etc type of products used at the air supply may cause pressure
drop. When installing your system you may include the pressure drop of each connection element in
your calculation. For this, you may approximately find how much length of piping is corresponding to
each element from the equivalent pipe length table. After summing up all elements, you may
calculate the pressure drop of the installation by adding to the end of pipe line.
90
Table 32 Equivalent Pipe Length Table

Elbow 0,3 0,5 0,6 1 1,5 2 2,5
Wide Elbow 0,15 0,25 0,3 0,5 0,8 1 1,5
Tee 2 3 4 7 10 15 20
Reducer (2/1) 0,5 0,7 1 2 2,5 3,5 4
Example: In order for the pressure loss to stay at same level as you found 100 meter of pipe length and
internal pipe diameter of 25 mm and 8 each elbows, 6 each tee and 2 each gate valve in your installation:
(8x0.3) + (6x2) + (2x 0.3) = 15 meters.
If you use the above components you may install 100-15= 85 meter maximum pipe line.
7.3 Compressor Room Ventilation

Ø In order to maintain the operation temperature at a specific value, place your compressor at a place
that adequate air flow is provided. The temperature that compressor operates should be at least 2
and at most 40 °C. Do not place your compressor where the temperature is less then + 2 °C and if
necessary heat the compressor room.
Ø If you think that there will not be sufficient amount of air flow in the room of operation; it is necessary
to make room ventilation or you must discharge the outgoing hot air the compressor to outside.
When doing this, the outgoing hot air of compressor should not return. For this reason the hot air
outlet and room air inlet should not be on the same side.
Ø When making duct at the compressor’s hot air exit, the most important thing is ,duct should not be
narrower then the dimension of compressor hot air outlet cowling and it should not be long or curly
to cause resistance.
Ø In case of the compressor operating in the room without duct and to demand to discharge the hot air
inside the room by a fan; simply there will be fan with similar capacity of the fan on the compressor.
Place this fan to the closest point of the compressor hot air outlet.
Ø If the area that the clean air will enter is roughly 1.5-2 times of the compressor intake grid area, it is
practically sufficient.
91
Ø Avoid not expose the compressor cooling radiator to direct sun light or regional strong winds.
Ø Avoid the compressor room being subjected to hazardous gas and vapor, heat or corrosive dust
emitted by central heating boiler or generator type of equipment.
7.4 Electrical Connections

Ensure that the electrical installation of your compressor is performed by a qualified electrician. In the
enclosed number 2 booklet; your compressor’s electrical wiring diagrams, installation figures and spare part
list are included.
Your compressor is designed to operate with three phase system. The voltage and frequency data are
written on the template of your compressor and in the “Technical data” part of this handbook. Suitable cross

8 OPERATION
8.1 General
In order to enable you to easily see the operation and adjustment values of the compressor, an
electronic controller unit is installed to the system. The electrical and mechanical precautions have
been taken for establishing of operational safety. Some of the equipments of the compressor are
described below for your information.
8.2 Some of the Compressor Equipment

Ø Control Unit: It is an electronic unit that all adjustments are made and failures, maintenance hours
are traced.
Ø Air-end Unit: This part of the compressor produces compressed air.
Ø Motor: Supplies mechanical drive for air-end unit.
Ø Intake Valve: It placed in the air-end unit. It controls the air intake of the compressor and operating
the compressor load or unload.
Ø Control Solenoid Valve: When the compressor reaches to adjusted pressure values, it controls the
air that goes to intake valve and makes the compressor operate at unload.
Ø Safety Valve: When the pressure in tank increased very high in case of failure, it releases the
pressure and establishes safety. Once a month when compressor is shut off, pull up the ring at the
top of the valve and release. By doing this protecting safety valve and gasket stick together.
Ø Minimum Pressure Valve: It provides the pressure remain at 2 - 3 bars in the seperator tank. In
addition in case of idle operation and switching of compressor; it prevents the system pressure to
penetrate back to the seperator tank.
Ø Radiator: Cooling the outlet air and the oil in the compressor oil line.
Ø Emergency Stop Button: Press this for stopping the compressor in case of emergency. It is
designed to remain locked when the button is depressed. For unlocking the button slowly rotate it in
clockwise.
Ø Manometer: Indicates the pressure.
Ø Pressure Sensor: It converts pressure data into binary format by electronically way and informs the
controller unit.
100
Ø Temperature Sensor: It converts temperature data into resistance value and informs the controller
unit.
Ø PTC: It placed between motor winding. stops the compressor when motor windings get high
temperature to protect to windings.
Ø Pressure Switch: In case of any failure to increase system pressure than the settings it shutdown
the compressor.
8.3 First Start Up

Ø Check the electrical and air line connections before first start up the compressor.
Ø Check that the compressor’s cooling air inlets and outlets are not closed. Do not cover your
compressor with cloth, nylon etc. Do not operate if covered.
Ø Inside electrical panel of your compressor there is a “phase control relay” that continuously checks
the electrical phase. In case the phases are connected in wrong order and if there is unbalance or
interruption in your voltage, the phase control relay will prevent operation of the compressor. In this
case, a signal behind the control panel that indicates the phase error warns you. When the phases
are connected reverse, switch off the energy and switch the position of main cables of the
compressor. In case of interruption or phase unbalance, as this problem is related with the network
contact an electrician or related institution.
Ø When the energy and air lines of your compressor are completed, inform your service for
commissioning. Our service will perform the general inspections, start up the compressor and supply
you beneficial information related to your compressor and its maintenance. If you want to start up
the compressor by yourself read this handbook very carefully. Performing an erroneous process
may be hazardous for your compressor facility or the personnel working in this region.
Ø Check the oil level. On the separator tank body there is a transparent hose for easily seeing the oil
level. Check the oil level when compressor is stop position. During operation the oil level may vary.
Ø If the oil level is missing, complete it. Information related to oil is described in chapter 8.
(MAINTENANCE) item "Compressor Oil".
Ø Check the internal components and connections of the compressor. Make sure that during
transportation it has not been damaged.
Ø Check the internal components and connections of the compressor. Make sure that during
transportation it has not been damaged. The running direction control of compressor: should be
made during commissioning. For this, remove necessary covers.
Ø By looking at the air-end of the compressor; press the “Start “button and run the compressor for a
short while (1-2 seconds) and stop it by pressing emergency stop button. When looked from air-end
101
side, it should rotate to air-end shaft direction. (That is indicated by an arrow on top of the air-end
body).
Ø If the rotation direction is correct, be sure to outlet valve of compressor is fully open.
Ø By closing the valve at the outlet of the air receiver allows the tank to fill.
Ø See that the pressure is rising from the compressor control unit screen or from the manometer over
the control panel.
Ø See that the pressure reaches the adjusted value and the compressor is getting idle.
Ø If the value of the air pressure in tank does not decrease to load level; compressor will automatically
stop at idle after a short time. After waiting a couple of minutes, by opening the tank outlet valve
observe that the compressor is loading at demanded pressure level.
Ø After 10-15 minutes, check the operating temperature of the compressor and see that it is normal
(80-90 °C depends on the ambient temperature). Switch off the energy of compressor by stopping
and check internal accessory of compressor by eye. This is very important against the probability of
oil leak or loosening.
Ø All the functions and reliability of the compressor has been tested after manufacture. The above
mentioned information of commissioning is against the probability of your compressor being
damaged during transportation. If you cannot see a failure status after all controls you can start up
the compressor.
8.4 Daily Operation

At normal days before running your compressor you may perform some simple checks and
afterwards run it. The maintenance activities are explained in the section 8. (Maintenance) “Daily
Maintenance” part.
Ø Observe that there is no failure warning signal on compressor panel.
Ø Observe that there is no oil leak or damage by looking at the internal accessory.
Ø Run the compressor and observe how it works for short time.
Ø Look at the front panel and observe that operating pressure and temperature values are normal.
Ø While the compressor running on load, observe the oil flow at oil return line (scavenge).
These simple checks may cause you to early detection of failures and save you from loss of time for
unnecessary stopping.
102
8.5 Operating Compressor After Long Term Stopped and Cold Weather
Ø Oil placed in air-end unit, oil line and radiator drip off with the effect of gravity and accumulate in the
oil tank.
Ø When compressor is shut off water accumulate down of the tank and get together.
Ø Especially temperatures under zero, frozen water under the tank can prevent oil circulation. So this
cause dangerous situation. Also water can freeze in air-end unit and valves and ice sticks the parts
together. This prevents the operation. To understand not any water remain under the tank, open the
oil drain valve and see oil coming out of it. If oil not coming water or oil in front of the valve must be
frozen. Certainly in this condition do not operate the compressor. Firstly warm the compressor room.
0
Ø Getting the compressor room temperature 5-10 C in a short time, not getting the air-end unit and
motor bearing grease temperature same.
Operation:
· Provide the compressor temperature at least 7 °C. (for thawing of ice)
· Turn the coupling to the rotation direction by hand 10 -15 cycle. (Before that, be sure that the
compressor is switched off.)
· Remove the intake valve and add enough (regarding the air-end dimension, enough for all the unit
lubricating) warmed compressor oil. (40-50 °C) (change about the compressor type approximately
0,5-2 kg)
· After replacing the intake valve; again turn the coupling by hand, 10-15 cycle.
· Operate the compressor short time and after 2-3 sec of loading stop the compressor.
· Again turn the coupling by hand, 10-15 cycle. (Before this be sure that the compressor is switched
off.)
· Again operate the compressor. After that compressor oil circulation must be run perfect.
· In first minute pay attention the compressor operation conditions. When changes happened at the
operation sound (especially raising acute sound) stop the compressor immediately.
· After operating the compressor see the loading and increase of the pressure.
· When compressor on load increase of pressure and temperature cause fault risk decreases.

10.1 Safety During Maintenance

Ø Before the maintenance, be sure that disconnect the power supply and release the compressed air
on the tank. Put a warning sign about the maintenance, seen surface of the compressor.
Ø After turning off, wait for compressor to cool down. Contact with the hot surfaces can causes
injuries.
Ø Before maintenance make sure that internal pressure is released.
Ø Be aware of the circuits. Check them if there is any current passing the circuit. Especially main
switch has current flow even if it is turned off. Only energize the components when it is obviously
stated.
114
Ø Unless powered off, while compressor stopped some parts still has high voltage.
Ø Make sure all safety devices, isolating and electrical protection devices are reinstalled after
maintenance.
Ø Only authorized personnel are responsible for maintenance and repair of the compressor.
10.2 Periodic Maintenance
10.2.1 Daily Maintenance

Ø Check the compressor oil level.
There is a transparent hose for indicating oil level on the separator tank body. Check the oil level
when the compressor is stopped (during operation oil level may vary). If oil is missing refill it. If you
are frequently adding up oil, this means that there is a problem with your compressor. In order to
understand this; review the section Troubleshooting Section.
Ø During operation, check the failure warnings and operating values from control panel.
10.2.2 Weekly Maintenance

Ø Clean the panel and intake filter of the compressor by compressed air.
Ø Check / Clean the cooler cells by compressed air.

10.3 Maintenance Instructions
10.3.1 Compressor Oil

Ø In our products HERTZ SMARTOIL 3000 type of oil is being used. This oil is specially produced by
taking into account of compressor operation type as you will see below.
Ø As the chemical structures and contributions of different types of oils are different; mixing them with
each other or using them in the compressor may cause a severe damage with a high cost.
Ø Do not put any oil additive in the compressor oil as in the motor oils. As the oil that you use has been
prepared specially for the compressor; it already includes this type of additives.
Ø In case of using engine oil, hydraulic oil etc; these two types will get mixed and become paste
consistency and this immediately impairs all the filters of your compressor. If you keep operating this
way, there may be stationary damages in your air-end unit in a few days.
Ø For this reason do not keep other lubricating oils beside your compressor. Because, your
maintenance operator may accidentally use it.
Ø In addition if you are in need of long life synthetic oil; contact our service and sales departments.
HERTZ Smartoil 3000
HERTZ Smartoil 3000 is high quality oil developed for screw type compressors. As the property of
separation from water and air is outstandingly developed and as it has a good oxidation resistance; it
is an ideal oil to be used in screw type compressors.
· Oxidation Resistance: High temperatures are formed during compression of air. The oil that does
not have oxidation resistance starts to leave oxidized impurities at some points. This causes
decrease in efficiency and increase in maintenance costs. HERTZ SMARTOIL 3000 prevents the
oxidation or minimizes the expense due to the additives included.
· Protecting the parts against corrosion: By protecting the parts against corrosion it lengthens their
service life.
· The Property of High Separation from Air: By rapidly separating from air it prevents the
cavitations and contributes the increase of compression.
· Gasket Compliance: Compliance with all the gaskets used in the compressor.
· Health and Job Safety: The skin contact of used oil should be especially avoided and in case of
contact must be washed with soap and water.
117
· Environmental Protection: Never pour the used oil to soil and water channels. Do not burn. If
possible accumulate them at a defined collection point and remove them per legal regulations.
· Typical Physical Properties:

10.3.2 Oil Change

Ø Switch off the compressor.
Ø If the compressor is already cold, first run it 5-10 minutes for

warming up of oil and switch it off again.
Ø Wait for 3-5 minutes for internal pressure discharge and oil to
strain down.
Ø Remove the old element by filter tool.
Ø Discharge the oil completely by opening the oil discharge

valve. After the oil flow is finished, close the oil outlet valve.
Ø Replace the oil filter by filling the new oil.
Ø Fill the new oil upper level.
Ø Complete the connections by installing oil charging plug and

Ø Run the compressor for a few minutes for checking the internal accessory leaks.
Ø After switching off the compressor wait for the fall down of oil and check the oil level. If it incomplete
refill it.
118
10.3.3 Oil Filter Change
Change oil filter every 2000 hours. If in 6 months 2000 hour of usage time not completed, change
the filter once in 6 months. Also change the filter every time changing of the oil.
For replacing the oil filter;
· Stop the compressor and wait until internal pressure

discharged.
· Remove the old element by filter tool.
· Clean the surface where contact of filter gasket.
· Fill up the new filter element with oil and lubricate its gasket
slightly.
· Place the new element and manually tighten.
· Avoid harming the filter cartridge.
· Restart the compressor and check whether or not there is

any leakage. Figure 28 Oil Filter Replacement
Only use original spare parts for avoiding damage of the oil filter element and your
compressor. The maximum pressure values of other type filer elements may not be
sufficient.
10.3.4 Panel Filter Change

Ø The ventilation fan of your compressor is need of high amount of free air. As a result of operation of
this fan, the dust in the compressor operating ambient is absorbed. Based on the dustiness degree
of the ambient your panel filter may be rapidly clogged.
Ø When the panel filter is clogged, the cooling air amount is decreased and the compressor operating
temperature is increased. In addition when the panel filter is clogged, as the suction speed will
increase the dust particles can hardly pass through the filter.
Ø Frequently clean the panel filter. For doing this remove the filter cover by removing the bolts and
clean with compressed air (internal to external). After cleaning replace the filter. Structural property
of Panel filter a bit lubricated. Not cleaning for a long time cause none cleanable dust and oil mixture
concretion. In this situation change the filter.
119
Figure 29 Panel Filter Replacement
For replacing the panel filter:
· After switching off the compressor remove the screws connecting the top perforate to intake
cowling.
· Remove the old panel filter, replace the new filter. Tighten the screws connecting the top
perforate to the intake cowling.
10.3.5 Air Filter Change

Ø The intake filter inside the compressor prevents to obstruct the dust entry into compressor. Clean
the filter by spraying compressed air (internal to external).
Ø As the air filter is more sensitive than the panel filter, if the panel filter is not properly cleaned it may
rapidly get clogged.
The filter replacement should be made once every 2000 hours or

once every 6 months as an average.
For changing air filter:
For 7,5 - 10 HP powered machines;
· Pull out the air filter cover.
· Take out the old filter.
· If necessary clean the chamber with lint less cloth. Figure 30 Type of Air filter for 7,5 - 10 HP

· Stop the compressor. By removing the washer which tighten the filter upper cover, take of the upper
cover and filter.
· Clean the lower cover of the filter internal surface with a piece of cloth. Do not clean these mess with
compressed air. (Messes can flee into intake valve.)
· Replace the new filter and close the upper cover. Be sure that filter placed correctly between the
upper and lower covers.
· Place the up cover washers and nuts.
· If keep the inner element of spare air filter in stock preserve on its own box and clean area.
10.3.6 Separator Element Change

Change the separator element every year. Cleaning the filter is impossible. If compressor works
more than 4000 hours, change the filter every 4000 hours. If differences between internal and
external pressure is more than 1,5 bar even if time is not the changing to the separator, change it.
For changing the separator element;
Atom type separator used for 30 - 50 HP powered machines;
· Stop the compressor and see the internal pressure is zero.
· Take out the old separator element with filter tool.
· Grease the new separator element gasket.
· Replace the filter and tighten by hand.
· Check the leakage on the gaskets and the connections by operating the compressor.

122
· Replace the new lower gasket.
· Avoid dropping fabric, oakum or foreign materials inside the separator tank.
· Place the new seperator element.
· Replace the lubricated upper gasket.
· Replace the cover the way of removing.
· Replace and tighten the lubricated cover bolts.
· Make the equipment connections properly and strongly that you removed from separator cover
previously.
· Check the compressor that gaskets and connections have any leakage while operating.
10.3.7 Cooling Radiator Maintenance

Ø For keeping the cooler clean, you should not hinder the cleaning of the panel filter.
Ø As the cooling air passes between the cells of the cooler, small amount of dust goes between the
cooler cells and this start to block the cells. Clean this by spraying compressed air between the cells
from the opposite of cooler (from outside to inside).
Ø When the dust between the cells mixes with oil, it may get hardened by sticking. In this case clean
this by spraying an industrial cleaner between the cooler cells.
10.3.8 Separator Oil Return Line (Scavenge) Maintenance

Ø When the separator filter is separating the air from oil, some quantity of oil penetrates into the oil
filter element. This oil is recovered to the system by return line.
Ø When the compressor is operating at load, the oil flow from the scavenge hose should be seen.
Ø If the orifice in the scavenge line gets blocked, the oil level in tank rapidly decrease an oil penetrate
into the compressed air system.
Ø When discharging water underneath the air receiver; in case you observe oil or during some checks
the oil level is decreasing, the scavenge line may be blocked. By stopping the compressor remove
the scavenge line and clean the orifice on the scavenge line by compressed air.
Ø Do not expand the diameter of the scavenge orifice, otherwise the capacity of your compressor
decreases.
10.3.9 Motor Maintenance

For long life and effective use of the electrical motors you should consider a few important points.
123
Ø Make the grounding of the compressor properly.
Ø Do not change the pressure related with the compressor operation, current and time adjustments.
When the adjusted value is exceeded, the motor current will increase as the load will increase. This
situation may cause burning down of your motor.
Ø Do not use products like the separator and oil filters that have complete their service life. The
maintenance activities that are no performed on time, will force the system mechanically and
therefore increase the load of your motor and compressor and shorten its life.
Ø Keep the cooling fan, ventilation channels and the screen of the protective cover clean.
Ø Your elevation from sea level and medium temperature directly affects the cooling coefficient of the
motor. In standard, your motor operates without problem at 1000 meters altitude and at 40 C°
ambient temperature. You may have to review the loading ratio at higher altitudes and warmer
places.

10.3.10 Bearing Lubricating

Ø In standard motors up to 55 KW-75 HP power by use of ZZ series bearings the maintenance has
been lubrication free. But up to that motor power bearing lubrication must be renewed. The
information about type and amount of lubricant that used for bearing lubrication is written on the
motor plate. If not use water proofed lithium based type lubricant (KLUBER ASONIC GHY72, ESSO
MOBIL UNIREX N3 or equivalent values). While your compressor is being produced it is filled with
motor bearing lubricant. If there in nothing else is indicated on the motor plate; renew your motors
bearing lubricant in every 2000 hours (although this may change due to medium temperature and
other effects).
Ø If you did not operate your compressor for a long time, renew the bearing lubricant before first start
up.
