OPERATING AND PARTS MANUAL INDUSTRIAL ELECTRIC AIR COMPRESSORS 75UDG AND 100UDG MODELS WITH T1 MICRO PROCESSOR CONTROL PALATEK, INC. dba SULLIVAN-PALATEK MICHIGAN CITY, IN 46360 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED COPYRIGHT 2011 10-26-2011 Part Number: OPM75100T1...
SECTION 1 - SAFETY GENERAL SULLIVAN-PALATEK designs all its compressors so they can be operated safely despite the fact that operating a motor driven air compressor is inherently hazardous. Responsibility for continued safe operation rests with those who install, use and maintain the equipment.
SULLIVAN-PALATEK_____________________________________ Do not use air pressure greater than 30 PSI (207 kPa) for blow-off or cleaning purposes, and then only with effective chip guarding and personal protective equipment as required by OSHA. Compressed air filters or lubricators with plastic bowls may be affected by lubricant and should not be used.
_____________________________________SULLIVAN-PALATEK PHYSICAL DANGERS Wear OSHA approved personal protective gear including gloves, safety shoes, safety glasses, head covering, and ear protection when working on or around the compressor. Avoid bodily contact with hot oil, hot surfaces, sharp edges and corners. Keep all parts of the body away from all potential points of air discharge, including pressure relief valve ports.
SULLIVAN-PALATEK_____________________________________ LIFTING Lift or move the compressor only with equipment of sufficient load capacity that has been inspected and is in good condition. Keep personnel out from under and away from the area when lifting or moving the compressor. Lift no higher than necessary. Carry as low as possible when moving. Keep lifting operator in attendance whenever compressor is suspended.
_____________________________________SULLIVAN-PALATEK 1.11 HAZARD WARNING SIGNS SULLIVAN-PALATEK compressors are all equipped with brightly colored, weather- resistant, pictorial/verbal self-adhesive decals. These are designed to warn the operator against potential hazards in order to minimize risk of property damage, bodily injury or death. All operators must be aware of the Warning Signs and follow the instructions thereon.
NOTE: SEE INSTALLATION DRAWINGS ON PAGES 55-58 OF THIS MANUAL DATA AND DIMENSIONS SULLIVAN-PALATEK reserves the right to change the design or construction of the above compressors, or to offer them with options which will cause subject equipment to differ from the above specifications, without reference to any descriptions in this manual.
For instrument-grade air, contact the factory for recommendations related to specialized compressed air preparation accessories. Whenever a SULLIVAN-PALATEK rotary screw compressor is installed in parallel with a reciprocating type of compressor, it is imperative that the SULLIVAN-PALATEK be the “lead”...
SULLIVAN-PALATEK_____________________________________ INTAKE/CONTROL SYSTEM The intake/control system consists of: an air filter, connecting rubber elbow, a combination compressor inlet valve/reverse-flow check valve, control signal regulator valve, blowdown valve, and control pressure transducer. (See Intake Control Schematic.) The air filter is a multi-stage dry-type with a high efficiency cleanable/replaceable cellulose element.
_____________________________________SULLIVAN-PALATEK Note that the micro processor is programmed to limit the number of starts per hour (depending on motor size) for motor protection. If the compressor is starting too often, thus causing the compressor to be off when air is required; please contact the factory for adjustments to be made to the controls to avoid this problem (i.e.
SULLIVAN-PALATEK_____________________________________ Pressure in the oil separation tank utilizes air pressure over oil which causes the lubricoolant to flow from this region of relatively high pressure through the system to an area of lower pressure at the compressor unit. Fluid flows from the oil separation tank to the cooler;...

_____________________________________SULLIVAN-PALATEK lock out the electrical disconnect switch, and relieve all sump pressure before doing so. The oil separation tank is ASME rated for 200 psig (1380 kPa) maximum working pressure. A combination minimum-pressure/check valve in the separator cover assures a minimum pressure of 60 psig (415 kPa) for proper lubricoolant circulation and separation.
SULLIVAN-PALATEK_____________________________________ STARTER AND ELECTRICAL PARTS The three-phase electric motor starter supplied with the SULLIVAN-PALATEK Plant Air Compressor has a NEMA-1 rated enclosure. This is also the location of: the control power transformer, the control pressure transducer, the sump pressure sensor, fan motor disconnect fuses, and fan overload.
It is possible to utilize this heat for space heating, combustion air pre-heating, product drying, etc., --providing that no additional restriction is imposed upon the compressor cooling fan. Consult the factory for assistance if heat recovery is desired. Model 75UDG 100UDG AIRFLOW (CFM) 7,500 9,500...

SULLIVAN-PALATEK_____________________________________ DIRECTION OF ROTATION Once the control circuit has been checked, all piping installed, and compressor is filled with lubricoolant, push the ‘run’ key (green) followed by the ‘stop’ button (red) and observe the direction of rotation. If rotation direction is incorrect, there may be a fault signal appear (ER0050).
_____________________________________SULLIVAN-PALATEK SECTION 5 - OPERATION INTRODUCTION Read this entire Operator’s Manual to familiarize yourself with the SULLIVAN-PALATEK Plant Air Compressor, giving special attention to the Section 1 - SAFETY. INITIAL START Open main disconnect to be sure there is no power to the compressor.
SULLIVAN-PALATEK_____________________________________ d. When the appropriate access code is shown, press ‘enter’. e. After the access code has been selected, use the ‘up’ (+) or ‘down’ (-) key to select the corresponding parameter menu (i.e. PO1, PO2, or PO4) Once the parameter has been selected, use the ‘up’ (+) or ‘down’ (-) key to select the setting to be changed g.
_____________________________________SULLIVAN-PALATEK SECTION 6 - MAINTENANCE MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE Daily -1. Check lubricoolant level prior to start-up 2. Drain condensate from auxiliary tank. 3. Check micro processor for any fault or alarm codes (see 5.2 instructions.) 4. Keeping a daily log of all operating parameters is recommended. First 50 hours - Change compressor lubricoolant filter element.
SULLIVAN-PALATEK_____________________________________ OIL FILTER (Replace if differential pressure exceeds 15psid fault, H6 signal is shown, or every 1000 hrs.) 1. Open and lock-out main disconnect. 2. Relieve all internal system pressure. 3. Using a strap wrench, remove spin-on oil filter elements. 4.
_____________________________________SULLIVAN-PALATEK PRESSURE ADJUSTMENT Note: prior to making any control pressure adjustments, turn the adjusting screw on the modulating (or regulating) valve in several turns to get it out of the action. Once the control has been set, then the regulating (or modulating) valve is re-adjusted so that it starts operating (as determined by air coming out the vent hole in cap) at 5 PSIG lower pressure than the control set pressure.
SULLIVAN-PALATEK_____________________________________ Use the ‘up’ (+) or ‘down’ (-) key to pick other settings to be changed. J. Once the desired settings have been changed, press the ‘C’ twice (or hold the ‘reset’ for 2 seconds) to return to the main menu TROUBLESHOOTING SYMPTOM PROBABLE CAUSES AND REMEDIES...
