Introduction
To ensure safe operation of your KleeBlower compressor/vacuum pumps, please read
this instruction manual and pay particular attention to instructions marked with the
following signs:
DANGER
WARNING
CAUTION
1.1
Application
The KleeBlower is a complete unit ready for immediate installation either
as a vacuum pump or as a compressor. It is designed for handling air and
other non-flammable, non-corrosive and non-explosive gases only.
1.2
Vacuum and compression pressures
The drive motor can be loaded with total differential pressures given in the
technical data. Blowers with limited performance curves in the high
pressure range should be fitted with the relative pressure relief valves in
order to avoid an overload of the motor. Pressure relief valves can be
mounted directly on the outlet and the vacuum relief valves directly on the
inlet of the blower.
1.3
Temperatures
The permissible ambient temperature and gas temperature at the inlet is -
10 to +40 ºC. The maximum allowed humidity is 80%
Indicates an imminently hazardous situation
which, if not avoided, will result in death or
serious injury.
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation
which, if not avoided, will result in death or
serious injury.
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation
which, if not avoided, will result in minor or
