AIR CARE
SEMINAR TRAINING
Sullair Air Care Seminars are 3---day courses that provide hands---on instruction
in the proper operation, maintenance and service of Sullair equipment.
Individual seminars on Industrial compressors and compressor electrical
systems are presented at regular intervals throughout the year at a dedicated
training facility at Sullair’s corporate headquarters in Michigan City, Indiana.
Instruction includes discussion of the function and installation of Sullair service
parts, troubleshooting of the most common problems, and actual equipment
operation. The seminars are recommended for maintenance and service
personnel.

OPERATION
SEPARATOR RETURN LINE SIGHT GLASS Used to indicate fluid flow in the return line. When the
compressor is running at full load, fluid flow should be
visible in this sight glass. There may be little or no flow
when the compressor is running unloaded, but a slug-
gish flow at full load indicates a need to clean the re-
turn line strainer.
THERMAL VALVE Regulates flow of fluid to and around the cooler. It is de-
signed to maintain a minimum operating temperature
of 180_F (82_C); use for fast warm---up on start---up.
MINIMUM PRESSURE/CHECK VALVE Maintains minimum of 55 psig (3.8 bar) in the com-
pressor sump. Valve piston restricts receiver air dis-
charge from receiver/sump when pressure falls to 55
psig (3.8 bar). Also prevents backflow into the sump
during unload conditions and after shutdown.
COMPRESSOR DISCHARGE Designed to shut the compressor down when the
TEMPERATURE SWITCH discharge temperature reaches 235_F (113_C).
WATER PRESSURE SWITCH It prevents operation when water pressure of
(water---cooled compressors only) compressor is inadequate.
PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE Opens sump pressure to the atmosphere should pres-
sure inside the sump become too high. Operation of
this valve indicates that the high pressure switch is ei-
ther faulty or out of adjustment.
MODULATING INLET VALVE Regulates the amount of air allowed to enter the air
compressor. This regulation is determined by the
amount of air being used at the service line. Also acts
as a check valve to prevent reverse compressor rota-
tion at shut down.
PRESSURE REGULATOR Allows a pressure signal to reach the air inlet valve to
control air delivery according to demand.
SOLENOID VALVE Bypasses the pressure regulator valve causing the in-
let valve to close when the compressor reaches maxi-
mum operating pressure. Also activates blow ---down
valve.
PRESSURE SWITCH Senses service line pressure. When line pressure
reaches maximum setting the pressure switch signals
the pilot valves to unload the compressor.
BLOWDOWN VALVE Vents sump pressure to the atmosphere during un-
load conditions and shutdown.
WATER REGULATING VALVE Regulates the amount of cooling water used to keep
(water---cooled only) the compressor running at a normal operating tem---
perature.

7.1 GENERAL Figure 7 ---1 Fluid Filter (P/N 02250096 ---783)
As you proceed in reading this section, it will be easy
to see that the Maintenance Program for the air
compressor is quite minimal. The use of the service
indicators provided for the bearing filter, air filter and
fluid separator, will alert you when service mainte-
nance is required. When the maintenance gauge
shows red, maintenance for that specific item is re-
quired. See instructions for each item in Section 7.8,

1. Place a bright light inside the element to inspect
for damage or leak holes. Concentrated light will
shine through the element and disclose any
holes.
2. Inspect all gaskets and gasket contact surfaces
of the housing. Should faulty gaskets be evident,
correct the condition immediately.
3. If the clean element is to be stored for later use, it
must be stored in a clean container.
4. After the element has been installed, inspect and
tighten all air inlet connections prior to resuming
operation.

plies to a typical installation with a desired operating
range of 115 to 125 psig (7.9 to 8.6 bar). This infor-
mation will apply to a compressor with any other op-
erating range excepting the stated pressures.
Remove the cover of the pressure switch. With the
shut ---off valve closed (or slightly cracked open)
start the compressor. Observe the line pressure
gauge and pressure switch contacts. When the line
pressure reaches 125 psig (8.6 bar), the pressure
switch contacts should open. If the pressure switch
contacts do not open or they open prior to the de-
sired pressure, the pressure switch setting will re-

FOR PRESSURE RANGE ADJUSTMENT:
1. Remove cover to pressure switch.
2. Turn the range adjusting screw to the high pres-

lowers both the high and low pressure equally.
