Screw Compressor i-series 1.1 Observation/Prevention (DOs and DON'Ts)
1-1
Chapter 1 Safety
1.1 Observation/Prevention (DOs and DON'Ts)
1.1.1 DOs
1.1.1.1 DOs on Operation
Make sure to attach safety and protective devices to the package unit.
The safety devices and protection systems must be regularly checked for their normal
operation.
If any safety device or protection system does not function normally or this product operates in
an abnormal manner, immediately stop the work and contact your supervisor. When the
system is to be restarted, you must observe the decision and instruction of the supervisor.
If this product has stopped operation due to an unknown cause, immediately contact your
supervisor. Before restarting the system, you must seek the decision and instruction of the
supervisor.
Depending on the type of refrigerant used, its leakage may generate a bad smell or poisonous
gas. Be sure to sufficiently ventilate the room while the machine is operated.
Regarding the characteristics of the refrigerant and lubricant, e.g., corrosiveness, degradability,
and toxicity, be sure to obtain the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) of them and follow the instructions
given.
When this product is not to be used for some period of time, close the suction (side) and
discharge (side) stop valves and shut off the motor power source, heater power, and control
power.
1.1.1.2 DOs on Maintenance
Prepare work procedures based on a work plan. Be sure to perform danger forecasting before
starting the work.
If two or more people are to work together, be sure to mutually check the work details and
procedures before the work. During the work, always keep track of the other workers’ actions.
Before working on any troubleshooting during operation, before setting up this product, before
cleaning work, and before conducting maintenance or inspection work, be sure to shut off the
motor power source, control power, and power to other equipment, perform lock-out and
tag-out procedures, and take effective measures to prevent any accidental power-on during
the work.
Before working on any troubleshooting during operation, before setting up this product, before
cleaning work, and before conducting maintenance or inspection work, be sure to check that
the internal pressure of this product and the refrigeration/cold storage unit is at the
atmospheric pressure.
Depending on the type of refrigerant used, it may generate a bad smell or poisonous gas or
could cause an oxygen deficient atmosphere. Before starting the work, measure the oxygen
content in the work area, as appropriate, and provide sufficient ventilation. The ventilation
must be continued steadily until the work is completed.
For the properties of refrigerant and lubricant (corrosiveness, decomposability or toxicity), be
sure to obtain the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) and follow the relevant information.
After work, the tools used must be returned to the predefined location. Be sure not to leave
them inside the package unit.

Chapter 1 Safety
Screw Compressor i-series 1.1 Observation/Prevention (DOs and DON'Ts)
1-2
1.1.1.3 DOs on Lockout/Tagout after Shutting Off the Power
Alock-out/tag-out mechanism must be installed for the main circuit breakers that supply power
to the motor and power to the control system. The lock-out/tag-out after power down is a very
effective means to ensure the safety when two or more workers are working on the system at
the same time, as it can prevent possible injury of workers that may be caused by accidental
power-on of the driving source by one of the workers.
If there is a risk of danger, especially during cleaning, maintenance/inspection, or
troubleshooting work, be sure to let the workers perform the lock-out/tag-out procedures after
the motor main power and control power has been shut off.
Because the workers may neglect to perform the lock-out/tag-out procedures or cut-off the
power in the following situations, be sure to instruct them to strictly follow the correct
procedure by clearly identifying the work that require lock-out/tag-out and the reasons why it is
needed.
As it is a cumbersome task for the workers to cut off the motor main power and control
power and use lock-out/tag-out devices before starting the work, they might neglect to do
it.
The workers might determine by themselves that it should be OK just to cut off the motor
main power and control power, and not use any lock-out/tag-out devices.
1.1.1.4 DOs about Personal Protective Gear
Prepare and use protective gear complying with the safety standards of the regulations.
Check the function of each protective gear before using.
Wear designated clothes such as work outfits, with their cuffs tightly closed.
Do not wear any neckties or jewelry as there is a risk of being entangled by a movable part or
rotating part. Put on a helmet as your hair may get entangled.
Do not have anything in your pocket to prevent objects from falling into the machine.
1.1.1.5 DOs about Handling of Hazardous and Toxic Substances
Obtain Safety Data Sheet (SDS) from manufacturers of hazardous and toxic substances.
Check the MSDS and follow the handling instructions recommended by the manufacturers to
handle and store those substances.
1.1.1.6 DOs about Handling Emergency Situations
Formulate an emergency action plan complying with the regulations, and post it on a safe
place.
1.1.1.7 DOs about Waste Oil, Fluid, and Materials
Disposing of refrigerant and oil used for this product are subject to a number of regulations for
the environmental protection purposes. Follow the local, state, federal acts and regulations
and your company's rules when disposing of such waste oil, fluid and materials.
1.1.1.8 Other DOs
Keep clean the floor around the entire package unit. Provide a safety passage.
Walk only on the areas set up as a work floor. Also, do not leave tools and cleaning solutions
in that area.
If water or oil is spilled on this product or the floor, immediately wipe it off to prevent workers
from slipping and getting injured.

1.4.3 Compressor Protective Devices
Be sure to adjust the set values and check operation of the protective devices when
commissioning. Also, after that, the regular operation confirmation is necessary.
Install necessary protection devices shown in section 2.3.3 "Alarm Set Values" in this manual chapter 2.
Also, install the following protection devices that are not indicate in section 2.3.3, as occasion
demands.
Protection from motor over current (OCR)
This device activates and applies appropriate control when the current equal to or higher than the
set level flows. In some cases, this device stops the compressor operation.
For more information about setting and installation of this device, please refer to the instruction
manual of the motor.
Protection from oil level decrease
In case of the oil supply by differential pressure, install a protection device to the oil separator for
protect form oil level decrease. Since there is a possibility that alarm for protection from lubricating
differential pressure decrease does not activate even if the amount of lubricant is insufficient.
No Water Alarm
If you use water cooling oil cooler and/or water cooling condenser, a suspension of water supply
protection is necessary.
For more information about setting and installation of this protection device, please refer to the
instruction manual of the motor or the like used in the cooling water system.
In the operation test, check that alarms and switches operate normally by using
devices such as pressure tester. Do not operate the compressor with all the valves
closed, or in any other dangerous conditions.
If the protection from oil pressure (OP) or high pressure (HP) activates, do not restart
operation until the cause of activation is removed.

Chapter 2 Compressor Specifications and Configuration
2.1 Features of i-Series Compressor
i-series compressor enables designers to design highly reliable and most compact
refrigerating unit. It has a lot of features.
Centering is made unnecessary by mounting the motor using a flange.
By mounting the motor using a flange eliminates the need of the troublesome motor centering before
starting the equipment.
Suction strainer and check valve built-in compressor
This compressor has built-in suction strainer and check valve which enable easy maintenance.
No oil pump required in differential pressure oil supply system
This compressor employs roller bearings which let lubrication oil reserved in part even when the
machine is stopped. Accordingly, no lubrication failure will occur even with differential pressure oil
supply system which has no oil pump installed.
3-step (100%, 75%, 50%) unloader
As it has a 3-step (100%, 75%, 50%) unloader built-in, flow adjustment can be done easily.
Inverter-controlled speed control is available.
High efficiency, and low vibration and noise
Use of original screw rotor profile attains high efficiency, and low vibration and noise.
