1.2.3 Oil system
Air pressure forces the oil from receiver (17) through oil coolers
(6), filters (7) and oil stop valve (15) to the compressor elements
and the lubrication points.
Oil stop valve (15) prevents the compressor element from
flooding with oil when the compressor is stopped.
Valve (26) by-passes oil coolers (6) when starting the
compressor from cold condition, to ensure rapid warming of
the oil to normal working temperature.
In air receiver (17) most of the oil is removed from the air
centrifugally. Almost all of the remaining oil is removed by
separator element (18).
1.2.4 Cooling system
On GR, the system includes air cooler (4) and oil coolers (6),
cooled by one or two fans (5) 1).
GR W are provided with a cooling water system, including a
combined oil and air cooler.
1.2.5 Regulating system
The system keeps the net pressure within programmable
pressure limits by automatically loading and unloading the
compressor depending on the air consumption. It is controlled
by Elektronikon
®
regulator (E1) which also protects the
compressor and monitors components subject to service. See
section 1.3.
Unloading
If the air consumption is less than the air delivery of the
compressor, the net pressure increases. When the net pressure
reaches the upper limit of the working pressure (unloading
pressure), solenoid valve (Y1) is de-energized. The plunger of
the valve moves downwards by spring force:
1. The plunger of solenoid valve (Y1) shuts off the supply of
receiver pressure towards chamber (8).
2. Control pressure present in chamber (8) is vented to
atmosphere through loading solenoid valve (Y1). Unloading
valve (3) closes by spring force.
3. Valve (12) is pushed downwards releasing receiver pressure
through flexible (30) and channels (10 and 29) towards the
air inlet. As long as the pressure in the air receiver is higher
