Instrument Air Duplex Expandable to Triplex Single Point Connection (SPC) Base Mount Systems
(7½ - 10 HP)
SPECIFICATION
SPC (Single Point Connection) System Design
The Expandable Instrument Air System shall be of a single
point connection base mounted design consisting of two
compressor modules with dryers, and a single control module
with control panel, air receiver, filtration system and oil/water
condensate separator. Each module has a maximum base
width of 34.50" (88 cm), and be fully compliant with the latest
edition of NFPA 99. The modules shall be assembled as one
unit with single point connections for air discharge, electrical
and condensate drain. Piping provisions shall be provided for
the future expansion module.
Compressor/Dryer Module (Compressor, Drive, Motor,
Piping, Dryer)
The compressor shall be a high pressure "oil-lubricated"
continuous duty rated type. The design shall be two staged,
air-cooled, reciprocating type with corrosion resistant reed
type valves with stainless steel reeds. Both oil scrapper ring
and piston rings shall be made from long lasting special cast
iron and designed for continuous duty operation. The
crankshaft shall be constructed of forged steel and fully
supported on both ends by heavy duty ball bearings and seals.
The crankcase shall be constructed of gray cast iron.
Maximum heat dissipation shall be achieved through cast iron
cylinders with external cooling vanes. Cylinder sleeves are not
required. Both low and high pressure pistons are made from
cast aluminum with chrome-moly piston pins. Second stage
cylinder head shall be equipped with a wired shutdown switch
for high discharge air temperature. The connecting rod shall
be of a one-piece design. The compressor shall be v-belt
driven through a combination flywheel/sheave and steel motor
sheave with tapered bushing and protected by an OSHA
approved totally enclosed belt guard. A sliding motor
mounting base that is fully adjustable through twin adjusting
screws shall achieve belt tensioning. The motor shall be a
NEMA rated, open drip proof, 1800 RPM, with 1.15 service
factor suitable for 208 or 230/460V electrical service. Each
compressor shall have its own inlet air filter mounted on the
first stage compressor heads. Discharge air from the first
stage compressor cylinder passes through an air-cooled
intercooler prior to entering the second stage. The second
stage discharge air then passes through an air-cooled
aftercooler designed for a maximum approach temperature of
12° F complete with moisture separator and zero loss
automatic drain valve prior to entering the dryer. The
compressor discharge line shall include a flex connector,
safety relief valve, isolation valve, and check valve. The
discharge air piping shall be of ASTM B-819 copper tubing,
brass, and/or stainless steel. The discharge flex connector shall
be braided 304 stainless steel, brass, or bronze. Each
compressor has its own dedicated dryer. Each dryer is
individually sized for peak calculated demand and capable of
producing a -40° F (-40° C) pressure dew point. Dryer purge
only occurs when its respective compressor is running.
Upstream of the dryer will be a separator with a zero loss
drain valve followed by a 0.01 micron coalescing filter. Both
filters shall have element change indicators.

Isolation System
Each compressor and motor assembly shall be fully isolated
from the main compressor module base by means of a four
point, heavy duty, spring isolation system for a minimum of
95% isolation efficiency. Where required by local or state
regulation, optional seismically restrained isolators can be
provided at an additional cost.
Control Module with Air Receiver/Filter/Regulator
System
The control module shall include a NEMA 12, U.L. labeled
control system, duplexed final line filters, regulators, oil
indicators, and a condensate oil/water separator and dew point
monitor and an air sampling port. All of the above shall be
factory piped and wired in accordance with NFPA 99 and
include valving to allow complete air receiver bypass. The
vertical air receiver shall be ASME Coded, National Board
Certified, galvanized, rated for a minimum 250 PSIG design
pressure and includes a liquid level gauge glass, safety relief
valve, manual drain valve, and automatic solenoid drain valve.
Control System
The triplex control system shall be supplied with all the
necessary internal wiring and components for the future
expansion module. The control system shall include an HMI
touch screen control, automatic lead/lag sequencing with
circuit breaker disconnects for each motor with external
operators, full voltage motor starters, overload protection, 24V
control circuit and hand-off-auto selector switch for each
compressor. Automatic alternation of all compressors based
on first-on/first-off principle with provisions for simultaneous
operation if required. Automatic activation of reserve unit, if
required, will activate an audible alarm as well as a visual
alarm on the HMI. The HMI displays service due, run hours
for each compressor, system status, operating pressure, dew
point and high discharge air temperature shutdown. A
complete alarm and service history is available on the HMI.
Dew Point Transmitter
The control module shall incorporate a dew point transmitter
that is mounted, pre-piped, wired to the control panel and
displayed on the HMI touch screen. The transmitter probe
shall be 316L SS with sintered stainless steel filter and thin
film polymer sensor. The system accuracy shall be ± 2° C.
Dew point alarm shall be factory set at -22° F (-30° C) per
NFPA 99 with remote alarm contacts in the control panel.
