2.5 Regulating system
Load/unload regulating system
Regulating system (loaded condition)
Loading
When the net pressure is below the loading pressure, solenoid valve (Y1) is energised. Results:
• The space above unloading valve/blow-off valve (UV) is connected with the oil separator tank
pressure (1) via the solenoid valve.
• Unloading valve/blow-off valve (UV) moves downwards, closing off the connection to channels (2)
and (3).
• Underpressure from the compressor element causes loading plunger (LP) to move downwards and
inlet valve (IV) to open fully.
Air delivery is 100%, the compressor runs loaded.
Unloading
If the air consumption is less than the air output of the compressor, the net pressure increases. When the net
pressure reaches the unloading pressure, solenoid valve (Y1) is de-energised. Results:
• The pressure above unloading valve/blow-off valve (UV) is released to atmosphere and the space
above valve (UV) is no longer in connection with the oil separator tank pressure (1).
• Unloading valve/blow-off valve (UV) moves upwards, connecting the oil separator tank pressure (1)
with channels (2) and (3).
• The pressure in channel (2) causes the loading plunger (LP) to move upwards, causing inlet valve
(IV) to close, while the pressure is gradually released to atmosphere.
• The pressure in the separator tank stabilises at low value. A small amount of air is kept drawn in to
guarantee a minimal pressure, required for lubrication during unloaded operation.
Air output is stopped, the compressor runs unloaded.
