Initial Start

Direction of Rotation Check
The compressor is wired for connection to a clockwise phase se-
quence power supply.
A check of the direction of rotation can be made by testing the phase sequence.
Arrows showing the direction of rotation are located on the motor and on the airend hous-
ing.
On your initial start, ”bump” the unit and verify the direction of rotation.
If the direction of rotation is incorrect, change over the supply conductors L1 and L2.
If the airend rotates in the wrong direction, the compressor is auto-
matically shut down by the safety air pressure switch (4.2, see
chapter 5.3).
7.5
Motor Overload Relay Adjustment
Lock the main disconnect in the ”off” position in accordance with ap-
plicable lock out/tag out procedures (example: OSHA CFR 29
§ 1910.147) to ensure the compressor does not restart. See chap-
ter 2.3 for the main disconnect switch.
The relay is set to the standard adjustment at the factory.
For the rated motor current see motor nameplate.
Compressor motor: Direct on-- line start
Adjustment:
To prevent the motor overload relay from tripping (because of voltage fluctuations, tem-
perature influences or component tolerances), the value can be set up to 15% higher than
the rated motor current.
