Sullivan-Palatek Industrial Air Compressor SP20-200

CAUTION!: Reverse rotation will cause damage that is not covered by the warranty.

NOTE!: Rotation must be checked whenever the compressor has been moved to a new location or after any change or reconnection of the main electrical wiring.

After the electrical installation has been completed, is the motor rotation checked?

Does the rotation of the drive coupling match the rotation indicated by the rotation decal located on the compressor?

If the rotation is incorrect, cut off power to the compressor and reverse any two of the three incoming leads L1, L2 or L3.

When converting to a different type of oil in the compressor, use the following procedures to ensure the different oil types do not mix.

1. Follow 6.3 Stopping for Maintenance procedures.

2. Remove the drain plug from the end of the drain line at the bottom of the sump tank.

3. Open the drain valve and allow all oil to drain. Discard in an approved manner.

4. Remove any remaining oil by splitting the discharge pipe at the compressor unit.

1. Pour as much flush lubricant into the inlet as was removed from the compressor.

The oil filter should be replaced after the first 50 hours of operation and then every 1,000 hours (or quarterly) or if fault A:2020 or A:4807 is shown on the microprocessor.

The fluid filter is located between the thermal valve and the unit injection port. The SP models have the filter mounted with the filter elements located on the top side. Once the pressure in the system has been completely depleted, most of if not all of the fluid in the elements have drained out making replacement simpler.

The following procedures should be followed before doing any maintenance on the compressor and will not be repeated in any of the maintenance procedures.

1. Per Occupational Safety & Health Administration (OSHA) regulation 1910.147: The Control of Hazardous Energy Source (Lockout/Tagout), disconnect and lockout the main power source. Display a sign in clear view at the main power switch stating that the compressor is being serviced.

2. Isolate the compressor from the compressed air supply by closing a manual shutoff valve downstream from the compressor. Display a sign in clear view at the shutoff valve that the compressor is being serviced. Be certain that a pressure relief valve is installed upstream of any isolation valve.

3. Wait until sump pressure reading is 0 psig.

4. Open all manual drain valves within the area to be serviced.

5. Wait for the unit to cool before starting to service. Temperatures of 125°F (52°C) can burn skin. Some surface temperatures exceed 250°F (121°C) when the compressor is operating and just after it is shut down.

Change the compressor oil as indicated by 6.1 Maintenance Schedule or if fault A:4805 is shown on the microprocessor. As directed by oil analysis report

1. Follow 6.3 Stopping for Maintenance procedures.

2. Remove the drain plug from the end of the drain line at the bottom of the sump tank.

3. Open the drain valve and allow all oil to drain. Discard in an approved manner.

4. Remove any remaining oil by splitting the discharge pipe at the compressor unit.

1. Clean any dirt from around the oil fill cap.

2. Loosen the cap to make sure any remaining pressure is relieved through the vent hole, then remove.

Inspect return line flow, Correct as needed
