Usage Features:
The compressor features a control panel with various gauges and switches for monitoring and operation:
- Gauge Panel: Includes Air Pressure Gauge, Engine Tachometer, Compressor Temperature Gauge, Engine Coolant Temperature Gauge, Voltmeter, Fuel Level Gauge, and Engine Oil Pressure Gauge.
- Control Panel: Features an Hourmeter, ViewPort display (for operating parameters and diagnostic codes), High Exhaust System Temperature (HEST) Lamp, Aftertreatment Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) Lamp, Regeneration Disabled Lamp, Wait to Start Lamp, Joystick (for navigation), Main Control Switch (OFF, ON, RUN, START positions), Service Air Button, and Regeneration Control Switch (Normal, Regeneration Disable, Regeneration Initiate positions).
- ViewPort Display: Provides digital gauges for key operating parameters, allows selection of display screens, and offers access to information resources like Parts Manual, Operation and Maintenance Manual, CAN device interfaces, and System Log. It also displays fault codes for engine or equipment issues.
- Starting: The engine is equipped with 115VAC electric heaters for preheating engine coolant, lube oil, and battery heating pads, controlled by a thermostat and pressure switch. It also features automatic Ether starting fluid injection for cold starts. A Battery Disconnect Switch is provided for long-term storage.
- Operation: The compressor operates in loaded and unloaded states, with engine speed varying to match air demand and maintain rated pressure.
- Shut Down: Requires closing service valves and allowing the compressor to run at idle for 3-5 minutes for cool-down to prevent turbocharger damage. An Emergency Stop button is available for urgent shutdowns.
- IQ System (Optional): A self-contained system providing cooler, cleaner air with high-efficiency filtration and a patented condensate disposal system that injects liquid condensate into the engine exhaust for vaporization. When equipped with the low ambient feature, movable louvers automatically adjust airflow through the aftercooler to maintain compressed air temperature above freezing (typically 45°F/7°C).
