Normal Startup
Depress the EXTERNAL pushbutton. This allows the machine to be controlled by the PLC sequencer that
will allow the machine to control capacity.
2. In the event of a computer failure, switch compressor control from remote to local.
3. Press the remote start button. This will allow for the compressor to be sequenced by an auxiliary control in the
PLC and enable the compressor to start depending on the set up. From this point the startup sequence will be
automatic and the following will occur:
A. If the compressor was started previously within the anti-recycle time delay period, ANTIRECYCLE
will be displayed. The compressor start will be delayed until the anti-recycle timer has completed its
timing cycle (20 minutes).
B. If the compressor has not been started recently or the anti-recycle timer has timed out the
following will occur simultaneously:
The oil pump will start and establish oil pressure. Oil pressure must be established within 20 seconds or
the startup sequence will terminate and the compressor will not start.
START DELAY will be displayed. The startup time delay allows time for the oil pump to build oil
pressure and for the slide valve to move to the unload position (less than 5%)
1.

UL (unload) will be displayed and will remain on until the load delay period has expired, and the
capacity control has caused the compressor slide valve to load.
PH ON (preheat on) will be replaced by PH OFF (preheat off).
4. Once the compressor slide valve has reached less than 5% and the oil pressure has been established the
following will occur:
A. The compressor will start
B. START DELAY will be replaced by LOAD DELAY or 10 seconds during which UL will be
displayed.
C. The elapsed time meter will start timing to display compressor operating hours, as soon as LOAD
DELAY is displayed.
5. The compressor will now operate automatically. The capacity controller will cause the compressor slide valve
to load and unload to maintain the desired system pressure or temperature.

Normal Operation
1. Ensure that the system conditions will allow a safe startup.

12. Crack open the drain valve (lettered B) to remove the filters and drain oil into a bucket. When the oil flow has
stopped remove all but two cover bolts. The last two bolts must be backed off slowly while tapping on the
cover to break the seal. Let the remaining oil drain into a bucket. When the oil flow has stopped, the cover can
be removed. Remove the nut and washer then reach in removing the retainer, filter, spacer, and final filter
13. When reinstalling the screen, make sure the hole faces the bottom and the o-ring (the o-ring is usually
replaced no matter the condition) in the cover is not damaged. Install the cover and tighten the bolts to 40ft.
Lbs. Close the drain valve (letter B).
14. Wipe out the housing and install filter, spacer, another filter, retainer, washer and nut. Check o-ring in cover

Procedure
15. Replace oil through valve M with the oil pump located next to the waste oil tank. The oil should be filled
between the two sight glasses on the side of the compressor. These sight glasses are drawn on the print.
16. When replacing the oil strainer, be careful of any pressure that was trapped in the line. Slowly loosen the
cover letting excess oil drain into a bucket or pan. Remove the cover draining off oil in the cover into a
bucket. Be sure to inspect the gaskets condition, if necessary replace the gasket with a new one. Tighten the
oil strainer cover to 25ft.lbs.
17. Clean and check the valve strainer located just after valve K.

18. Open all valves and check for leaks. Close oil pump dip switch to start the machine.
19. Restart compressor.

RESETTING BOOSTER & COMPRESSOR FAILURES

1. ALWAYS start the high side (+12 suction) compressors first. RC-5, RC-6, or RC-7.
2. Clear failures by pressing the reset buttons (hold for a few seconds) on the door of FES-1 PLC cabinet in the
control room. a. Pump receiver #2 reset
b. Pump receiver #1 reset
c. Alarm silence reset
d. Intercooler reset

3. Go to the failed compressor or booster Micro Control Panel press the change display button four times or
until the screen reads Failure Annunciator with the cause of the failure listed below it. (Example: Aux.
Safety) Do the following:
a. Press STOP/RESET button
b. Failure will flash
c. Press clear button
d. Failure will disappear
e. Press CHANGE DISPLAY button until you return to the home screen
f. Press LOCAL START and manually load the compressor/booster. Gradually, using the HOLD button and
approximately 25% of the slide valve until the machine is fully loaded. At this time push REMOTE START and
