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 anti-
friction bearings located outside the compression chamber. Roller bearings are used at the inlet end of
the rotors to carry part of the radial loads. Angular contact ball and roller bearings at the discharge end
locate each rotor axially and carry all thrust loads and the remainder of the radial loads.
COMPRESSION PRINCIPLE (Figure 1-1)- Compression is accomplished by the main and secondary
rotors synchronously meshing in a one-piece cylinder. The main rotor has five (5) helical lobes 90°apart.
The secondary rotor has six (6) matching helical grooves 72°apart to allow meshing with main rotor
lobes.
The air inlet port is located on top of the compressor cylinder near the drive shaft end. The discharge port
is near the bottom at the opposite end of the compressor cylinder. Figure 1-1 is an inverted view to show
inlet and discharge ports. The compression cycle begins as the rotors unmesh at the inlet port and air is
drawn into the cavity between the main rotor lobes and the secondary rotor grooves (A). When the rotors
pass the inlet port cutoff, air is trapped in the interlobe cavity and flows axially with the meshing rotors (B).
As meshing continues, more of the main rotor lobe enters the secondary rotor grove, normal volume is
reduced and pressure increases.
Oil is injected into the cylinder to remove the heat of compression and seal internal clearances. Volume
reduction and pressure increase continues until the air/oil mixture trapped in the interlobe cavity by the
rotors passes the discharge port and is released to the oil reservoir (C). Each rotor cavity follows the
same “fill-compress-discharge”cycle in rapid succession to produce a discharge air flow that is
continuous, smooth and shock free.
AIR FLOW IN THE COMPRESSOR SYSTEM (Figure 1-3) - Air enters the air filter and passes through
the inlet unloader valve and on into the compression chamber where oil is injected into the air. After
compression, the air/oil mixture passes into the oil reservoir where most of the entrained oil is removed by
velocity change and impingement and drops back into the reservoir. The air and remaining oil then
passes through the air/oil separator. The air then passes through the minimum pressure/check valve, the
after cooler and the moisture separator and into the plant air lines.
LUBRICATION, COOLING AND SEALING - Oil is forced by air pressure from the oil reservoir through
the oil cooler, thermostatic mixing valve, and oil filter and discharge into the compressor main oil gallery.
A portion of the oil is directed through internal passages to the bearings and shaft oil seal. The balance
of the oil is injected directly into the compression chamber to remove heat of compression, seal internal
clearances and lubricate the rotors.

SECTION 2
INSTALLATION
GENERAL - On receipt of the unit, check for any damage that may have been incurred during transit.
Report any damage or missing parts as soon as possible.
Do not electric weld on the compressor or base; bearings can be damaged by
passing of current.
LIFTING UNIT - Proper lifting and/or transporting methods must be used to prevent damage. Unit may
be moved into location by lift truck.
Lift compressor unit under base only. Do not use other places such as motor,
compressor or discharge manifold piping as lifting points.
The eyebolts or lugs provided on the motor are for lifting the motor only and should
not be used to lift any additional weight. All eyebolts must be securely tightened.
When lifting the motor the lifting angle must not exceed 15 degrees. Failure to observe
this warning may result in damage to equipment or personal injury.
Compressor, air/oil reservoir, separator chamber and all piping and tubing may be at
high temperature during and after operation.
LOCATION (Figure 2-1) - The compressor must be installed where it is protected from rain, snow and
freezing temperatures, in a clean, well-lighted, well-ventilated area with ample space all around for
maintenance. Select a location that provides a cool, clean, dry source of air. In some cases it may be
necessary to install the air filter at some distance from the compressor to obtain proper air supply, see
“Inlet Line, page 15.
AIR-COOLED UNIT - A combination oil/air cooler is supplied as standard equipment on all air-cooled
units. A shaft driven axial fan supplies the ventilation needs for the oil/air cooler and electric motor
cooling (Figure 1-2). Air is drawn into the unit through the left side panel, over the motor and discharged
through the cooler cores. Do not block the air flow to and from the unit. Allow three and one half (3-1/2)
feet to the nearest obstruction on the control box end of the unit. Allow two (2) feet to the nearest
obstruction above and on other sides of unit.

13-25-617 Page 13
For continuous efficiency, the cooler cores must be periodically cleaned with either vacuum or
compressed air. If wet cleaning is required, shield motor and spray on a mild soap solution and flush with
clean water.
NOTICE
Coolers are aluminum; do not use any cleaning solution that is not compatible with
aluminum. Use of improper solution may result in damage to the cooler.

Figure 2-2 –AIR FLOW CHART
FOUNDATION - The rotary screw compressor requires no special foundation, but should be mounted on
a smooth, solid surface. Whenever possible install the unit near level. Mounting bolts are not normally
required. However, installation conditions such as piping rigidity, angle of tilt, or danger of shifting from
outside vibration or moving vehicles may require the use of mounting bolts and shims to provide uniform
support for the base. Belt alignment and tension should be checked after installation. (For information on
belt alignment and tension, Section 8.
OIL SUMP / OIL COOLER DRAIN –Sump oil and oil cooler charge are drained from a single plugged
connection on the lower, left-hand side of the core –see Figure 1-3.

13-25-617 Page 14
ENCLOSURE - The compressor, electric motor, oil cooler and after cooler are mounted inside the
enclosure.
Service panels are provided for maintenance access. Be sure to allow enough space around the unit for
the panels to be removed. Any of the enclosure panels may be removed by opening the latch and lifting it
up slightly.
Do not operate the compressor with the fan and belt guard removed. Exposed fan and
belts may cause injury to personnel.
The enclosure doors and panels must be closed and latched while the compressor is
operating. Failure to close and latch the doors and panels will cause high temperature
shutdowns.
Figure 2-3 –COLD WEATHER INSTALLATION - TYPICAL

13-25-617 Page 15
INSTALLATION FOR COLD WEATHER OPERATION (
Figure 2-3) - It is recommended that the unit be installed inside a shelter that will be heated to
temperatures above freezing (32oF, 0oC). This will eliminate many of the problems associated with
operating units in cold climates, such as freezing in control lines and downstream of the cooler.
Refer to Engineering Data Sheet 13-9-411 for the advantages of using the heat recovered from rotary
compressors. This heat recovery could easily pay for an adequate shelter for the unit.
When the unit must be installed in an outdoors installation and/or exposed to ambient temperatures below
freezing (32ᴼF, 0ᴼC), contact Gardner Denver for recommendations.
When using a Total System with a compressed air dryer option, refer to Section 10 for details.
Remember unsheltered (outside) installations should be avoided whenever possible. Installation next to
a heated building, where enough heat can be used to keep the compressor room above freezing, will
save many complications in the operation and installation of the unit.
AUXILIARY AIR RECEIVER –When using the base compressor package, an auxiliary air receiver is not
required if the piping system is large and provides sufficient storage capacity to prevent rapid cycling.
When used, an air receiver should be of adequate size, provided with a relief valve of proper setting, a
pressure gauge and a means of draining condensate
STANDARD MOISTURE SEPARATOR/TRAP - The unit is provided with a stand-alone combination
moisture separator and trap that is field-installed downstream of the after cooler.
CONTROL PIPING - Control piping is not necessary since the rotary screw unit is factory wired and piped
for the control system specified.
INLET LINE - The filter is close-coupled to the compressor intake flange, thus no inlet line is used or
recommended.
DISCHARGE SERVICE LINE –For a stand-alone compressor unit, the discharge service line connection
is provided at the outlet of the field installed water separator, which in turn is located at the lower right
hand side of the after cooler core.
For a compressor unit integrated into the Total System, the discharge service line connection is provided
at the outlet of the dryer bypass loop (when dryer options is furnished) or at the outlet of the receiver
vessel.
A hand operated valve, (air service valve) and a separate (swing-type) check valve must be installed
between the unit and the customer’s air system. If a fast operating valve such as a ball valve is used, it
must be closed slowly to give the intake valve time to shut and keep the discharge pressure from spiking.
The controller has an automatic start/stop sequence built in. You do NOT need to
close the air service valve. Closing the air service valve on start-up or prior to
shutdown will cause rapid cycling, and could cause a high pressure shutdown.
When piping two or more rotary screw units on a common discharge line, each unit shall be isolated by
the check valve in the unit discharge line.
If a rotary screw and a reciprocating compressor are piped to a common discharge line, an air receiver
must be located between the two units.

13-25-617 Page 16
Discharge air used for breathing will cause severe injury or death.
Consult filtration specialists for additional filtration and treatment equipment to meet
health and safety standards.
ELECTRICAL WIRING - Standard Units –The stand alone compressor package is factory wired for all
connections from the starter to the motor, for the horsepower and voltage specified on the order. The
standard unit is supplied with totally enclosed motors and a UL Type 1 (NEMA 1) starter and controls
enclosure. See “Location”paragraph in Section 2, for distance to the nearest obstruction on the control
box side of the package.
The overload settings are to be selected based on motor nameplate full load amperage.
Perform all wiring in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NFPA-70) and any applicable local
electrical codes. Wiring must be performed only by qualified electricians.
Electrical shock can cause injury or death. Open main disconnect switch, lockout and
tag out before working on control box.
When the compressor unit is integrated into a Total System and the optional compressed air dryer is
furnished, the latter shall be provided with a separate source of electrical power.
Electrical Wire Sizing - A certified electrician familiar with National Electric Codes and applicable local
codes shall size the electrical power wires serving the compressor package. Refer to Figure 2-4 for a
summary of maximum package current draw values.
