WARNING
Before proceeding with the installation tasks described below, read Chapter 3
“SAFETY REGULATIONS” carefully.
Positioning
5.3.1
Air intake extension connection
5.3.2
- Position the compressor in the designated area
and check it is level. For compressor dimensions
please consult section 4.3 “Technical characteristics”.
- Check that the area in which the compressor is to
be positioned is adequately ventilated: good air
exchange (more than one window), no dust and no
risk of explosion, corrosion or fire.
- If ambient temperatures exceed 45°C air
conditioning will be necessary.
- Position the compressor no closer than 1 m to
surrounding walls; the gap between compressor and
ceiling should be at least 1.5 m. These distances
ensure proper compressor operation and proper
cooling of the pumping unit.
- Make sure that lighting in the area is sufficient to identify every detail (such as the writing on the info labels);
use artificial lighting where daylight is on its own insufficient.

If the compressor is installed in an area without the
necessary ventilation requisites described in section
5.3.1 “Positioning”, it will be necessary to install an
air intake extension leading in from outdoors or a
place with the cited ventilation requisites.
- The extension, supplied as an optional, must be
connected to the intake connector (
a
).
- Connect extension pipe to fitting.
- Fit the supplementary intake filter on the extremity
of the extension pipe.
- Position the end of the extension with the air
intake filter in a properly ventilated area sheltered
from weather and exhaust fumes.
- Point the air intake against the wind.
- Check that there are no kinks or breaks along the pipe. If it is damaged replace it.
WARNING
Use only a flexible pipe with internal steel braiding reinforcement so as to prevent
kinks and a consequent reduction of cross-section.
Do not aspirate harmful gases or exhaust fumes.
