Description
The air/oil mixture coming from the compressor element flows into the oil separator/tank, where most of the
oil is separated by centrifugal action. The oil collects in the lower part of air receiver/oil separator (OT) which
serves as oil tank. The remaining oil is removed by oil separator (OS). A small pipe returns the separated oil
towards the compressor element.
Air pressure forces the oil from oil separator/tank (OT) through oil cooler (Co) and filter (OF) towards
compressor element (E).
The system comprises a thermostatic bypass valve (BV). Only when the oil is warm, the valve allows the oil
to pass through the oil cooler.
