USE OF THE MACHINERY
4.1 Use allowed
The machinery described in this manual is the air compressor D185T4F-DB and is allocated to work outdoors.
The air compressor is a piece of machinery with the capacity of generating a given quantity of compressed air
in l/m by using a diesel engine as its power source.
The pneumatic energy finds applications in different fields of use where "pneumatic" operated tools,
accessories, and equipment are utilized, for instance: demolition hammers, drilling hammers, vibrators, drilling
machines, rammers, coating machines, etc. Each of these tools/accessories has its own consumption of
compressed air expressed in liters per minute. The optimum coupling between the compressor and the tool is
achieved when the compressed air consumption does not exceed 85% of the air generated by the
compressor. Furthermore, it must be taken into consideration that the quantity of compressed air required by
the tool shall increase over time proportionally to the wear of the tool itself.
The correct compressor-tool coupling ratio allows the machinery to operate in optimum conditions as
appropriate to ensure long life-span at the highest performance. An oversized tool, besides creating
unfavorable conditions for the appropriate operation of the machinery shall not develop full performance,
since it cannot be supplied with required quantity of compressed air.
This machinery has been designed to work at ambient temperatures ranging from -10°C (14°F)
to
+40°C
(105°F).
WARNING:
It must be recognized that the compressed air generated by this unit
may contain some very fine traces of oil; therefore, it is not appropriate to be utilized
with those systems that call for fully oil-free air (e.g..: food processing and
pharmaceutical industry, transports of flours and powders, cement, etc...).
4.2 Use not allowed
Using
the machinery for other processes than those which are mentioned in the section above
is not allowed
.
ROTAIR S.P.A. declines any responsibility as related to injuries or accidents due to lack of compliance with
the specific provisions for use.
