GEA Grasso V 1100T - General Limits of Operation Grasso V

Besides this practical instrument Grasso is able to make, in advance, an
analyses based on a theoretical profile of the compressor and the running
conditions. In this way an indication of the running costs ( Total Costs of
Ownership, TCO) can be produced.
4.2 GENERAL LIMITS OF OPERATION GRASSO V
When operating the compressor, none of the limits of operation as stated in the
table below must be exceeded. *

The diagrams overleaf represent the overall fields of application in which the
individual operation limits are taken into account.

13 In practice, it is not so much the individual operation limits as combinations of them that are
decisive for the conditions under which a compressor may operate. To check the various
possibilities in this respect, use should be made of the "fields of application" ).
