During 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-energised. The plunger of solenoid valve (Y1) moves by spring force shutting off the control air supply
to unloader (UA).
Phase Description
1 Control pressure is vented from chamber (1) of unloader (UA) through solenoid valve
(Y1) and chamber (3) towards the inlet of compressor element (El).
2 As there is no longer any pressure difference between chambers (1 and 3), plunger (2)
returns by spring force keeping full-load/no-load valve (TV) closed and unloading valve
(UV) open.
3 Compressed air between check valve (CV) and valve (UV) is blown off through silencer
(US). Check valve (CV) closes.
4 As vacuum prevails in intercooler (Ci), diaphragm (4) switches to the left.
Air delivery is stopped (0%), the compressor runs unloaded.
