#CAMPBELL HAUSFELD AIR COMPRESSOR HOW TO#

When the flow stops, close the drain plug.Slowly open the drain port to flow used oil through the funnel into the jug.

Position the funnel and jug at the drain port (perhaps with a second person).Loosen the fill port to first vent the compressor crankcase.Turn off electric power to the equipment.Procure new oil (enter spec and quantity here).Notice the labeled jug, funnel, level view port, drain plug, and fill port in the following picture.The oil in the compressor crankcase should be changed on an annual basis. Dispose of the waste water (insert proper destination) and hang the empty labeled jug back on the hook, ready for the next use.Ĭhange the oil in the air compressor on an annual basis (Estimated time: 30 minutes).Rotate to close the drain outlet fitting when the flow changes from water to air and/or the jug is full.Tank pressure will expel waste water from the tank into the jug. Slowly rotate the drain outlet fitting to open it.Position the jug under the drain outlet.Notice the labeled jug and the drain outlet on the tank show in the picture.It is a simple-enough process to drain waste water condensate from the tank on a periodic basis. It can cause rust in the equipment and liquid water droplets may be expelled with the compressed air during use. This liquid water is a contaminate that can accumulate. Similarly, flow-related pressure changes in the lines and hoses will also cause moisture to condense as liquid water in lines and hoses. When this initially hot air (at pressure in the tank) then cools, the invisible moisture will condense from the air as liquid water. Hotter air holds more invisible moisture than colder air. Mechanically compressing this air causes the air to heat up.

Wear PPE (eye and ear protection) and use caution to avoid injury from contact with such flying debris.ĭrain waste water condensate from the tank monthly, or as needed (Estimated time: 10 minutes)Ītmospheric air contains invisible moisture.

Compressed air is typically used to blow sawdust, metal chips, and dust from the equipment.

Use caution when making connections and initiating flow to avoid unintended pressure release consequences.

Realize the compressed air in the lines and at outlet locations is an energy source.

Vent the tank to atmospheric pressure before servicing to release this energy source.

Realize the compressed air in the tank is an energy source, even after electric power is removed.

Avoid entangling body parts in the (potentially) rotating machinery.

Realize the enabled air compressor electric motor can and will automatically start at any time.

Know the electric motor may, or may not, immediately start to rotate the compressor, based on the tank pressure. This will enable the automatic operation based on tank pressure.

How to Turn it On (Enabled for automatic start/stop) It remains enabled to automatically re-setart as needed to maintain tank pressure. When the tank pressure reaches a high-pressure set point, the electric motor automatically turns off, stopping the compressor. When the tank pressure falls below a low-pressure set point, the unit's electric motor automatically starts to operate the compressor to rebuild/restore the tank pressure.

The tank pressure is typically maintained at 125 psig. Be aware that it can unexpectedly start at any time. It is typically left powered on (enabled), all the time. The air compressor provides on-demand compressed air to outlet locations in the space for utility use.
