TS32 USER MANUAL
OPERATION
5.1 INTRODUCTION
While Sullair has built into the TS32 Series package
a comprehensive array of controls and indicators to
assure its proper operation, the user should
recognize and interpret readings which call for
service or indicate the onset of a malfunction. Before
starting the unit, the user should become familiar with
the controls and indicators-their purpose, location,
and use.
5.2 PURPOSE OF CONTROLS—
INTRODUCTION
Indicators and functions included in the package are
listed in the following guide. However, all Supervisor
Controller-related functions and indicators are
presented in the Supervisor Controller Manual, so
please refer to that document for additional
information.
CONTROL: PURPOSE:
EMERGENCY STOP SWITCH Pushing in this switch, found adjacent to the Supervisor,
cuts all AC outputs from the Supervisor and de-
energizes the starter. A fault message (E STOP) is
displayed by the Supervisor until the button is pulled out
and the “O” pad is depressed.
THERMAL O/L RESET Momentarily pushing this button, found on the starter’s
thermal overload element housing, re-closes the
starter’s contacts after a current overload takes place.
Please be aware that the elements must be allowed to
cool sufficiently before resetting.
SULLICON ACTUATOR Actuates the inlet butterfly valve which throttles the air
flow to the compressor inlet, in order to match air supply
to the demand.
SPIRAL VALVE Internally bypasses and controls the air flow capacity of
the compressor, in order to match air supply to the
demand.
PRESSURE REGULATOR (SULLICON) Opens a pressure line between the sump and inlet valve
piston allowing the inlet valve to regulate air delivery
according to the air demand.
PRESSURE REGULATOR (WITH
SPIRAL VALVE)
Opens a pressure line between the service line and the
spiral valve actuator allowing the spiral valve to regulate
air delivery according to air demand.
SOLENOID VALVE #1 Electrically actuated, 3-way valve which controls the
flow of pneumatic logic signals. Used throughout
package to:
• Open the blowdown valve.
• Load the Sullicon device/close the inlet butterfly valve
during shutdown operation. ·Open the spiral valve.
SOLENOID VALVE #2 Opens when the compressor starts; closes when the
compressor is shut off. This prevents any air system
loss and depressurizes the controls when the
compressor is shut off.
