Page 8: Section 1, General Information
SECTION 1 GENERAL INFORMATION Figure 1-1 – COMPRESSOR CYCLE COMPRESSOR - The rotary screw compressor is a single stage, positive displacement rotary machine using meshing helical rotors to effect compression. Both rotors are supported between high capacity roller bearings located outside the compression chamber. Single width cylindrical roller bearings are used at the inlet end of the rotors to carry part of the radial loads. -

Page 16: Figure 2-3 - Cold Weather Installation
CAUTION If the compressor unit base is raised above floor level, the space between the floor and the base bottom must be closed with solid material all around to prevent recirculation of hot air from the oil cooler end and over temperature operation. - Page 17 Provide at least some simple shelter such as a plywood windbreak to protect against drifting snow. Use only Gardner Denver AEON 9000SP lubricant. Monitor unit carefully during start-up and operation to be sure it is functioning normally.

For instructions on checking the oil and the proper oil level, refer to “Compressor Oil Filter”, SECTION 5, page 24. Do not mix different type oils. Unit is shipped filled with Gardner Denver AEON 4000 Lubricating Coolant which is suitable for the first 4000 hours under normal operating conditions. AEON 9000SP is also available. - Page 22 Rotation - Check for correct motor rotation by jogging the motor. See “Unit Setup Adjustments” in Controller Operating and Service Manual. Compressor drive shaft rotation must be counterclockwise, standing facing the compressor sheave. WARNING Operation with incorrect motor rotation can damage equipment and cause oil eruption from the compressor inlet.
- Page 23 WARNING After an emergency stop, be sure that the pressure in the air/oil reservoir is less than 5 psig. Wait one minute or more before restarting. WARNING The controller has an automatic start/stop sequence built in. You do NOT need to close the air service valve.

Page 24: Section 4, Controls & Instrumentation
CONTROLS & INSTRUMENTATION GENERAL DESCRIPTION The Gardner Denver rotary screw compressor is prewired with all controls, motor, and starter for the voltage and horsepower at the time of ordering. It is necessary only to connect the compressor unit to the correct power supply and to the shop air line. -
Page 25: Figure 4-2 - Key Pad
CONTROL DEVICES Controller - This compressor unit features the "AutoSentry" controller, which integrates all the control functions under microprocessor control. Its functions include safety and shutdown, compressor regulation, operator control, and advisory/maintenance indicators. The keypad and display provide the operator with a logical and easily operated control of the compressor and indication of its condition. The controller is factory adjusted for the compressor package, but allows tuning for specific applications. - Page 26 Oil Level Gauge - This gauge is located on the oil reservoir and indicates the oil level. See “Oil Level Gauge”, Figure 5-4, page 30, for how to read oil level. Minimum Discharge Pressure/Check Valve - An internal spring-loaded minimum pressure valve is used in the final discharge line to provide a positive pressure on the coolant system of the compressor even if the air service valve is fully open to atmospheric pressure.
- Page 27 Reservoir Thermistor (Figure 4-1, page 17) - This sensor is located in the reservoir/separator housing and is used to monitor temperature and shut down the compressor if temperature problems occur at the separator. Emergency Stop Pushbutton - This is a maintained pushbutton, and removes power from the controller outputs regardless of controller status.
- Page 28 Re-assemble valve, including the snap ring. Tighten the cover down to the separator housing. Loosen the nut on top of the minimum pressure/check valve .05 to .08 inches. 10. Run the unit and check for leaks. 13-8-621 Page 21...

Page 31: Section 5, Lubrication, Oil Cooler, Oil Filter & Separator
Oil separated at the air/oil separator is sent via an oil return line through an orifice and back into the compressor. RECOMMENDED LUBRICANT - Gardner Denver compressors are factory filled with AEON lubricants. These lubricants are formulated to the highest quality standards and are factory authorized, tested and approved for use in rotary screw compressors. - Page 32 HIGH TEMPERATURE OPERATION - If the discharge temperature is sustained between 200-210° F. for a period of more than four (4) hours due to continuing high ambient air temperature, use Gardner Denver AEON 9000SP Lubricating Coolant which is a superior synthetic lubricant. Short periods of up to four (4) hours of sustained discharge temperatures up to 210°...

Page 33: Figure 5-2 - Approximate Oil System Capacities
Operating conditions and the appearance of the drained oil must be surveyed and the oil change intervals planned accordingly by the user. Gardner Denver offers a free oil analysis program with the AEON lubricants and we recommend a sample be sent in at 100 hours on a new unit. - Page 34 DRAINING AND CLEANING OIL SYSTEM DANGER Air/oil under pressure will cause severe personal injury or death. Shut down compressor, relieve system of all pressure, disconnect, lockout and tagout power supply to the starter before removing valves, caps, plugs, fittings, bolts and filters.
- Page 35 3. Wipe away all dirt around the oil filler plug. 4. Remove the oil filler plug and add oil as required to return the oil level to the max. range on the oil gauge. 5. Install the oil filler plug and operate the unit for about a minute allowing oil to fill all areas of the system.
- Page 36 WARNING All materials used in Gardner Denver compressor units are compatible with AEON 9000SP Lubricating Coolant. Use caution when selecting downstream components such as air line lubricating bowls, gaskets and valve trim. AEON 9000SP Synthetic Lubricant is not compatible with low nitrile Buna N or acrylic paints.

Page 37: Figure 5-4 - Oil Level Gauge, Oil Fill And Oil Drain
OIL LEVEL GAUGE (Figure 5-4, page 30) - The oil level gauge indicates the amount of oil in the air/oil reservoir. Read oil level only when the unit is shut down and the air/oil mixture has separated. Add oil only when the oil level is below the min. range on the site glass. Drain oil only when the oil level is above the max. -
Page 38: Figure 5-5 - Oil Filter
DANGER Air/oil under pressure will cause severe personal injury or death. Shut down compressor, relieve system of all pressure, disconnect, lockout and tagout power supply to the starter before removing valves, caps, plugs, fittings, bolts and filters. DANGER Compressor, air/oil reservoir, separation chamber and all piping and tubing may be at high temperature during and after operation. - Page 39 COMPRESSOR OIL COOLER - The cooler fan is mounted on the compressor motor shaft; air is exhausted through the oil cooler and away from the unit. Do not obstruct air flow to and from the oil cooler. Allow a minimum of two (2) feet (.6M) clearance around the cooler. Keep both faces of the cooler core clean for efficient cooling of compressor oil.
- Page 40 NOTICE A sudden drop of zero pressure differential or sudden heavy oil carryover may indicate a ruptured element. Inspection - After removal of separator element, shine a light inside the element to reveal areas of heavy dirt or varnish deposits or breaks (ruptures) in element media. Removal of Oil Separator For Inspection or Replacement: DANGER Air/oil under pressure will cause severe personal injury or death.

SECTION 6 AIR FILTER Figure 6-1 – AIR FILTER STANDARD DUTY AIR FILTER (Figure 6-1) - Replacement instructions are given in the following sections: DANGER Compressor, air/oil reservoir, separation chamber and all piping and tubing may be at high temperature during and after operation. WARNING The air filter element can not be cleaned or reused. - Page 43 Filter Element Life - The element should be replaced if visual inspection indicates an accumulation of dirt, or a rupture, crack or pin holes in the pleated media. Inspection should be done by placing a bright light inside the element. WARNING Do not oil this element.

Page 44: Section 7, Belt Drive
SECTION 7 BELT DRIVE Proper drive belt tension and alignment are provided at the factory, however, good practice dictates checking the drive alignment and tension after shipment and before initial start-up. Sheaves should align straight across the front with a straight edge. The best tension is just enough tension to keep belts from “squealing”... -
