Introduction to the Oil-free Screw Air Compressor
I. Introduction to the FushengTM oil-free screw air compressor
The FushengTM oil-free screw air compressor features novel structure, a small number of
wearing parts, low vibration, noise and energy consumption, high efficiency, long useful life,
and reliable operating performance.
1. The overall structure is compact, and the air pipeline is made of stainless steel pipes; the integrated
electric control box and control system saves design space, and makes the unit look artistic and
novel.
2. This two-stage compressor is absolutely free from oil; the precise engagement of rotors ensures
efficient output; the super coating and the antirust materials used in the unit provide you with
high-quality compressed air.
3. The precise engagement of rotors meets the air consumption of the user at minimum costs; the
inverter translates into maximum energy savings.
4. The unit is provided with a sophisticated electronic monitoring system, and all data is displayed on
the control panel for the convenience of setting, operation and monitoring.
5. In the outer fin type coolers, air flows through the casing and water flows through the pipeline,
featuring uniform water flow rate and high heat exchange efficiency, keeping impurity deposits at a
minimum. The cores of the coolers can be removed for easy cleaning.
6. The unit has reliable operating performance and long useful life. All parts of the unit are made of and
connected with stainless steel, and are therefore durable; the rotors of the unit are protected with a
super coating for higher impact resistance; the dew point control system reduces the impact of
water beads on the rotors, and prolong the useful life of the unit.
7. The unit is easy to maintain. All door plates are removable, so that every service point is visible to
you for quick maintenance; the air filter box is provided with an additional filter element gate; when
the filter element gate is opened, the filter element can be replaced or cleaned.

II. Operating Principle of the FushengTM Oil-free Screw Air Compressor (refer to the figure
below)
1. Operating principle of the body

Figure 1: Schematic diagram of the body

Zone A is the intake zone of the body, and Zone B is the exhaust zone of the body; “1” denotes the

-9-
male rotor of the body, and “2” denotes the female rotor of the body. When air enters Zone A via the
air cleaner and the intake valve, the negative pressure produced by the engagement and
high-speed rotation of the male and female rotors will suck the air in Zone A into the gap of the
engagement zone of the male and female rotors. With the rotation of the rotors, the rotor
engagement zone will progress to Zone B until it enters Zone B and then the cooler. With this cycle
repeating, air will be compressed from Zone A into Zone B continuously to produce compressed air.

2. Intake and release process

Figure 2: Structural and schematic diagram of intake valve

When the unit is under heavy load, the oil pump will start, an oil pressure will build up in the oil
hydraulic cylinder, and the oil pressure rod will drive the link to swing. When the air inlet opens, the
“release port” will close and the unit will be loaded. When the unit is under no load or stops, the
loading/unloading T-joint solenoid valve will operate to release the oil pressure, the oil pressure rod
will reset, the link will open the T-joint “release port” while driving the intake valve to close, and the
unit will run under no load; in case of shutdown, the unit will begin to release the oil pressure
thoroughly.

III. Other structural features

1. Unique cooler design

Since the unit compresses air only, it will generate a lot of heat, so it is critical to radiate heat from
compressed air effectively. We employ a large-capacity shell and tube cooler, whose casing is
made of stainless steel. Compressed air flows through the casing side, and cooling water flows
through the pipeline. The cooling water pipeline is wrapped by copper fins uniformly, so that
compressed air and cooling water can conduct heat exchange to the greatest extent, ensuring the

- 10 -
high quality of compressed air; the cooling core can be removed easily for cleaning and
maintenance.

2. Low vibration and noise

Through the precise fitting of gears and bearings, the body of the unit features low vibration and
stable operation. The unit has been dynamically balanced before installation to ensure stable
operation and minimum vibration. An exhaust muffler duct (as shown in the figure below) is provided
at the exhaust end of each stage of the body, reducing the noise at the exhaust end greatly.

The special design of the acoustic hood and the muffler reduce noise at the sound source.

A. Air will enter the first body stage for compressor via the intake valve after being filtered of
dust by the air cleaner. The compressed air will be cooled in the intercooler and further
compressed in the second body stage, and the air compressed in the second stage will be
cooled by the after cooler and delivered to the consumption system.

B. Functional description of components in the main air source passage

1. Air filter
The air filter is a dry paper filter, and should be removed for surface cleaning every 1,000 hours of
operation by blowing dust off outwards with low-pressure air. If the differential pressure switch of the
air cleaner on the display panel gives an alarm, the air filter must be cleaned or replaced. The
cleaning or replacement interval of the air filter is closely related to ambient cleanliness.

2. Differential pressure switch


When the differential pressure reaches the set value, the system will give an alarm that the oil filter
should be replaced.

3. Intake valve
The intake valve is controlled by an oil hydraulic cylinder. When it starts, the oil pump will operate
and produce an oil pressure that forces oil into the oil hydraulic cylinder, which will drive the link to
swing, open the intake valve and close the release T-joint to create the intake condition. When the
unit stops, the solenoid valve will release the oil pressure, and the oil pressure rod will reset, driving
the link to close the intake valve and open the drain valve for release.

4. Intercooler and after cooler


Compressed air flows through the casing side of the coolers; cooling water flows through the pipe
side of the coolers, and this pipe is wrapped by copper fins (see the cooler cleaning section for the
detailed structure). Compressed air will enter the fin layer from the upper part of the coolers and be
discharged from the lower part to create a cooling effect. A drain valve is provided below the cooler
and should be opened at each startup. The cooler core should be cleaned regularly at the
maintenance interval of the unit.

5. Mechanical automatic drain valve


The prolonged operation of a cooler will generate condensate. When the condensate level is
sufficient to make the ball of the mechanical drain valve float, the automatic drain valve will open
automatically to drain water, and the water level will drop; when the ball resets, the automatic drain
valve will close. This cycle will ensure that a cooler is free from condensate.

6. Electronic automatic drain valve


The operation of a cooler will generate condensate. The electronic automatic drain valve will open
regularly to drain water (the interval is the optimum interval obtained from long-term experiments) to
ensure that no condensate will build up in a cooler.

7. Safety valve
When the pressure switch is maladjusted or fails so that the pressure in the air loop is higher than
the set exhaust pressure by over 10%, the safety valve will open automatically to let the pressure
drop below the set exhaust pressure. The safety valve has been adjusted before factory release
and should not be adjusted without authorization.

8. Exhaust muffler duct


Reducing the exhaust noise by rectifying the air flow

9. One-way valve

10. Release muffler


Reducing the release noise

11. Temperature sensor


Detecting temperature and monitoring the operating status of the unit in real time

12. Pressure transmitter


Detecting pressure and monitoring the operating status of the unit in real time

13. Puff port


Ensuring that the atmospheric pressure is maintained in the oil tank and out of the oil seals, and
preventing oil from entering the body due to any differential pressure

When the lubricant in the oil tank has no pressure, the lubricant will be extracted from the oil pump
at the shaft end and enter the thermal valve via the primary oil filter. When the lubricant temperature
is below the set value of the thermal valve, the thermal valve will close, and the lubricant will flow
through the thermal valve and the oil filter (when the lubircant temperature reaches the set value of
the thermal valve, the thermal valve will open slowly, and the lubricant will flow through the thermal
valve and then through the oil filter after being cooled by the oil cooler). Afterwards, the lubricant will
flow in two ways: In one way, the lubricant will enter the oil hydraulic cylinder of the intake valve at

- 15 -
the original pressure, and be controlled by loading/unloading solenoid valve so that when the unit is
being loaded, the intake valve will open to take in air and the release T-joint on the intake valve will
close, and when the unit is being unloaded, the intake valve will open and then close, and the
release T-joint on the intake valve will open for release. In the other way, when the pressure of the
release valve drops to 0.15-0.18MPa, the lubricant will enter the gear box and the front/rear
bearings for lubrication and cooling, and finally return to the oil tank.

B. Functional description of components in oil loop

1 Oil pump
Increase the lubricant pressure in the oil tank to above 0.3MPa

2 Primary oil filter


Filtering off impurities in the oil loop preliminarily

3 Oil cooler
A water cooling oil cooler (water flow side) that cools the lubricant with cooling water

The cooling effect of a water cooling cooler is directly related to the temperature and flow rate of
cooling water; the water pressure should be within 0.2-0.4MPa.

4 Thermal valve
It is used to keep the lubricant temperature within a certain range. When the unit has just started,
the lubricant temperature is low, when the thermal valve will open the reflux circuit, and the lubricant
will enter the body without going through the oil cooler. If the lubricant temperature rises to over
40℃, the thermal valve will open slowly and be fully open at 48℃, when the lubricant will enter the
body after being cooled by the oil cooler.

5 Oil filter
The oil filter is a paper filter, used to remove impurities from the lubricant, such as metal particles
and deterioration products of the lubricant, with filter fineness of below 10μ, playing a good
protective role for bearings and rotors. If the oil filter should be replaced may be judged from its
differential pressure indicator. If the differential pressure indicator is illuminated, the filter is blocked
and must be replaced. For a new unit, the lubricant and the oil filter should be replaced after the first
500 hours of operation, and then replaced as indicated by the differential pressure indicator or
according to the maintenance schedule. If the oil filter has not been replaced while the differential
pressure is high, the unit may trip due to insufficient lubricant and high exhaust temperature, and the
useful life of the unit may be shortened.

6 Release valve
The direct pressure of the oil pump is over 0.3MPa, and can be reduced to 0.15-0.18MPa through
the release valve; the latter is the best pressure for oil injection.

7 Pressure indicator
Displaying and monitoring the lubricant pressure

should be replaced.

The main cooling water pipeline leads to the intercooler, the after cooler and the oil cooler in three
ways for cooling.

1. Dew point control valve


It is mounted on the cooling water loop of the intercooler. When the intake temperature of the
second stage (after cooling by the intercooler) is lower than the set dew point, the dew point
controller will make the motor valve close slowly until the intake temperature of the second stage
reaches the set dew point, and vice versa.
2. Flow switch (user-installed)
Detecting the flow rate of the main water pipeline and giving an alarm if the flow rate is insufficient.

Installation Instructions for the Unit

I. Handling
Take care during transport and handling. Handle the unit with care. When carrying the
unit with a forklift or hoisting it with lifting ropes, protective pads should be added at
appropriate positions (as shown).

Support
with a soft
object.

Use the hoisting


method shown in the
figure, and support
with a soft object.

II. Installation
The choice of the installation site is the most likely to be neglected by the staff. The unit
is often piped and operated immediately at a random site after purchase without any
prior planning. Such recklessness may become the cause of difficulty in repair of the

- 18 -
unit or bad quality of compressed air. Therefore, selecting a good installation site is a
prerequisite to the proper operation of the unit.
1. An open and well-day-lit site should be selected for the convenience of operation, examination
and repair.
2. The air around the installation site should have a relatively low humidity and be clean, and the
site should be well ventilated.
3. The ambient temperature should be lower than 46℃. The higher the ambient temperature is,
the less the air output of the unit will be. If the unit is placed in an enclosed compressor room,
an exhaust blower must be provided to maintain the temperature of the room, and the air output
of the exhaust blower must be higher than that of the cooling fan of the unit.
4. If the environment of the plant is poor and dusty, a prefilter should be installed.
5. An access road should be reserved and an overhead crane installed (especially necessary for
high-power compressors) for the convenience of repair and maintenance.
6. The unit should be kept away from walls by at least 1m for the purpose of maintenance.
7. The unit should have a headspace of at least 1m.

III. Precautions for piping, foundation and cooling system

1. Precautions for piping of air pipeline

- 19 -
1) The main pipeline should have an inclination of 1°-2° to facilitate the drainage of
condensate.
2) The pressure drop of any pipeline should not exceed 5% of the set pressure of the unit,
and a larger pipe diameter is preferred.
3) A branch pipeline must be led out from the top of the main pipeline to prevent condensate
therein from flowing down into the unit, and a one-way valve should be provided for the air
outlet pipeline.
4) The tools to be lubricated should be a triple combination (air water filter, pressure regulator
and oil supplier) in order to maintain the useful life of such tools.
5) The main pipeline should not be changed in size arbitrarily. If it has to be diminished or
expanded, a reducing pipe must be used, otherwise a mixed flow may occur at the joint,
resulting in a high pressure loss and affecting the useful life of the pipeline greatly.
6) If there are purifying and buffering devices, such as air storage tank and drier, after the unit,
the ideal configuration should be the unit + air storage tank + drier. Thus, the air storage
tank may filter off part of condensate, and the air storage tank can also reduce the exhaust
temperature of the air. When cooler and dryer air enters into the drier again, the load of the
drier can be reduced.
7) If the air consumption of the system is very high for a short period, an air storage tank
should be preferably installed for buffering so as to reduce the frequency of starting the unit,
which is very useful for the unit.
8) For compressed air with a system pressure of below 1.5MPa, the flow rate in the delivery
pipeline must be lower than 15m/sec so as to avoid any excessively high pressure drop.
9) Elbows and valves used in the pipeline should be kept at a minimum to reduce the
pressure loss.
10) Ideally, the main pipeline should surround the whole plant building, so that compressed air
is available in two directions at any position. If the air consumption of any branch pipeline
increases suddenly, the pressure drop can be reduced. Appropriate valves should be
provided on the circular main pipeline for the convenience of cutoff for examination and
repair.
2. Foundation
1) The foundation should be built on hard soil; before installation, the foundation plane must
be leveled to avoid high noise due to the vibration of the unit.
2) If the unit is installed on an upper floor of a building, proper anti-vibration treatment should
be made to prevent vibration from being transferred to lower floors or causing resonance,
which is a potential safety hazard for the unit and the building itself.
3) The ground on which the unit is placed should be flat and should not be composed of soft
soil.
3. Cooling system
The compressors in this series are of the water cooling type, where particular attention should
be paid to the pressure, amount and temperature of cooling water. In addition, the unit should
not be placed near any high-temperature machinery or in a poorly ventilated enclosed room so
as to avoid low air consumption or even tripping of the unit due to excessively high intake
temperatures. If the unit is operated in an ordinary enclosed system, an exhaust device should
be installed to facilitate air flow. Generally speaking, the exhaust air flow should be greater than

- 20 -
the air flow for heat radiation of the unit.

IV. General electric rules and safety specifications


1 A proper power route should be selected based on the power of the unit. No excessively
small wire size should be used, otherwise the power cord may be burnt out due to high
temperatures.
2 The unit should preferably be serviced by a separate power system. In particular,
operating it in parallel with any other system with different power consumption should be
avoided. In case of parallel operation, an excessively voltage drop or the imbalance of the three
phase currents may overload the unit, thereby causing the guards to trip.
3 An NFB (no-fuse breaker) suited to the power of the unit should be installed to ensure the
safety of the power-consuming system and maintenance.
4 The unit must be wired under proper voltages.
5 The ground wire of the motor or the unit should be provided practically to avoid the risk of
current leakage. The ground wire should not be connected directly to the air delivery pipeline or
the cooling water pipeline.
6 Generally, the imbalance of a three-phase power supply should not exceed 3%.
7 The power supply must be cut off before any electric repair work is carried out.

Safety Protection System and Warning Devices

1 Motor overload protection


Usually, when the operating current of the motor exceeds the upper limit of the over-current
protector, the over-current protector will cut off heavy current control automatically and the unit
will stop running. At this point, the unit cannot start unless it is reset. The unit should be reset by
holding down to reset the setting switch and enter the corresponding alarm reset password (this
is used to ensure that the user knows about the condition of the unit). The over-current protector
has been set before factory release, and is particularly important for protecting the proper
operation of the motor, so its settings should not be modified without authorization.
1) Manmade operating error: such as increasing the exhaust pressure without authorization
and improper system adjustment
2) Mechanical failure: such as internal wear of the motor, phase failure of the motor,
non-operation of the safety valve, failure of system settings, and loaded starting due to the
incomplete closing of the intake valve, etc.
If the motor is found to be overloaded during operation, please contact the manufacturer
immediately, which should assign a technician to find out the cause, otherwise the
motor may burn out.
2 Exhaust over-temperature protection
The design maximum exhaust temperature of the system is 210℃. If the exhaust
temperature exceeds 210℃, the control panel will give an alarm by flashing. If the exhaust
temperature exceeds 220℃, the system will cut off the power supply automatically. There
are many causes of exhaust over-temperature, but the most common cause is the failure
of the cooler, which may be attributed to the insufficiency or over-temperature of cooling water
(failure of the cooling water tower), the blocking of the water pipeline or the blocking of the fins of
the air loop (resulting in increased load of the unit).
The design maximum ambient temperature of the unit is 40℃, so it is necessary to select a cool
and ventilated site to place the unit.
When protective tripping occurs due to exhaust over-temperature, the starting circuit of
the system will be cut off, and it is impossible to start the system again. The system can
only be started after the reset button has been pressed and the alarm has been released.
3 Alarm system
The unit is provided with alarms, and an alarm signal will be displayed on the control panel when
the air cleaner or the oil filter is blocked. When an indicator is illuminated, a filter has been
blocked and must be replaced as soon as possible, otherwise the performance and safe
operation of the unit will be affected.

- 22 -
Control System

1. Control system
1) Starting
Before starting, make sure everything is okay, and then press the “ON” button to start the motor,
open the intake valve and operate the unit.
2) Shutdown
Press the “OFF” button to close the intake valve and discharge air. The exhaust fan will run
continuously for 3-5 minutes to ensure that the internal temperature of the unit will not be too
high.
3) Emergency stop
When the exhaust temperature exceeds 220℃ or the over-current protector starts due to the
overload of the motor, the over-current protector will cut off heavy current control automatically,
the control panel will give an overload alarm, the motor will stop running, and the intake valve
will be closed to discharge air. The exhaust fan will run continuously for several minutes to
ensure that the internal temperature of the unit will not be too high. Only if any emergency
arises during the operation of the unit can the emergency stop button be pressed.
Never start the motor too frequently, otherwise the motor may burn out.

2. Electric wirings
The unit is electrically controlled by two systems – the internal control system and the
starting board. The starting board controls starting through the Y-△ structure commonly used
in machines or through an inverter. The control section is controlled by a microcontroller.
Microcontroller control will not be discussed in more detail here due to complex internal wirings
and principles. If the starting board is damaged or fails, please contact the Fusheng service
center directly for replacement.

Operation of the FushengTM Oil-free Screw Air Compressor

I. Trial run, starting and shutdown


1. Connect the power cord and the ground wire, and check if the power voltage is correct and
the three-phase power supply is properly connected.
2. Check if the oil level in the oil tank is within the normal range.
3. Check the cooling water system, the intake system and the exhaust system.
4. Check the cooling system.
5. Press the Emergency Stop button within several seconds of pressing the “ON” button to see if
the unit runs in the proper direction (as indicated by the arrow); if not, exchange any of two of
the three wires.
6. Press the “ON” button again to start the unit.
7. See the meters and indicators for any abnormal indication.
8. 10-15 seconds after the “OFF” button is pressed, the controller will stop the motor to prevent
the unit from being damaged by shutdown under heavy load.

II. Pre-starting inspection


An inspection should be performed before starting to prevent any major fault of the unit and
improve operating efficiency.
1. Check the lubricant level, which should not be excessively high or low. The lubricant should be
replenished when it is insufficient. Do not use any lubricant not supplied by Fusheng. The
lubricant level should be observed 10 minutes after shutdown.
2. Check if the pressure of the cooling water is 2-4kg and if the cooling water tower runs
properly.

III. Precautions during operation


1. The unit should be stopped immediately when there is noise or abnormal vibration during
operation.
2. All pipelines and containers are pressurized during operation. Do not loosen the plug of any
pipeline or open any valve unnecessarily.
3. During prolonged operation, if the lubricant level indicated by the oil level gauge is found to be
insufficient and the lubricant temperature is rising gradually, stop the unit immediately and
observe the lubricant level 10 minutes later. The lubricant should be replenished when it is
insufficient.
4. The intercooler and the after cooler are provided with an automatic drain valve, otherwise water
will be taken into the system. Check if the automatic drain valves operate properly. If any valve
is blocked or damaged, it should be repaired or replaced timely.
5. Check the voltage, current, air pressure, exhaust temperature, lubricant level, oil pressure and
other parameters indicated by the meters every two hours of operation for future reference.
6. Rotating parts may cause personal injuries. Do not open the door or the protective cover when
the unit is running.

IV. Measures for prolonged shutdown

- 28 -
If the unit is not to be operated for a long time, the following measures should be taken carefully,
especially in high humidity seasons or areas.
1. If the unit is not to be operated for 3 weeks or more
1) Wrap the motor control panel and other electric devices with plastic or oilpaper to prevent the
entry of moisture.
2) Any existing fault should be removed in advance for the sake of future operation.
3) After the unit has been shut down for several days, drain condensate from the coolers.
2. If the unit is not to be operated for 2 months or more, the following measures should be
taken in addition to the above measures:
1) Close all openings to prevent the entry of moisture and dust.
2) Wrap the safety valve and the control panel with oilpaper or other similar paper to prevent
rusting.
3) Before the unit is shut down, replace the lubricant and run the unit for 30 minutes; remove
condensate from the coolers 2 or 3 days later.
4) Move the unit to a clean and dry place where possible.
3. Restart procedure
1) Remove the plastic or oilpaper from the unit.
2) Measure the insulation resistance of the motor, which should be over 1MΩ.
3) The other steps are the same as those of trial run.
4. Introduction to control panel (see the description of the control system for details)

Maintenance and Inspection of the FushengTM Oil-free Screw Air
Compressor

I. Specifications and maintenance of special lubricant for the FushengTM oil-free screw air
compressor
1. The lubricant can be critical to the performance of the unit; if it is improperly used, the
unit may be seriously damaged or even a fire may occur. Therefore, the FushengTM
lubricant must be used.
2. Factors affecting the lubricant replacement interval
1) Poor ventilation or excessively high ambient temperature;
2) High humidity or high dust level;
3) The recommended lubricant replacement interval is one year.
When the operating conditions are very harsh (very dirty or very humid, etc.), it is necessary to
increase the frequency of lubricant replacement. The interval of lubricant replacement should be
based on the operating conditions and an analysis of the appearance of used lubricant.
3. Replacement of lubricant (see the attached General Lubricant Replacement
Procedure of the FushengTM Oil-free Screw Air Compressor)
1) Operate the unit to increase the lubricant temperature and facilitate discharge. Then press the
“OFF” button to stop the unit.
2) Open the oil drain slowly to prevent the lubricant from splashing.
3) After the lubricant has been fully drained, close the oil drain and open the oil filler cap to inject
fresh lubricant. Be sure to drain up all lubricant in the system, including that in the pipelines and
coolers. If the lubricant is replaced when its temperature is high, be careful of scald.
4. Precautions for the use of lubricant
1) If the unit is operated for the first time, it is advised to replace the lubricant at about 2,000 hours
of operation, and this interval may be extended to 4,000 hours if the lubricant has no abnormity.
Afterwards, the lubricant should usually be replaced every 4,000 hours of operation. However, if
the operating environment of the unit is poor, such as high temperature and much dust, the
lubricant replacement interval should be shortened appropriately.
2) Never use the lubricant beyond its useful life. The lubricant should be replaced timely, otherwise
the quality and performance of the lubricant will deteriorate, and the unit is likely to burn out.
3) After the unit has been operated for two years, it is advisably to clean the oil loop systematically
with lubricant. The method is to replace the lubricant with fresh FushengTM lubricant immediately
after the unit has run for 6-8 hours, so that organic compounds remaining in the system can be
rinsed out, so that the new lubricant will have a longer useful life.

II. Adjustment of safety valve


The discharge pressure of the safety valve is usually set as 10% higher than the maximum
exhaust pressure, and has been set before factory release and needs no further adjustment. If
the discharge pressure of the safety valve has to be adjusted for any other reason, loosen the
locknut above the safety valve and adjust the adjusting screw. Turn it clockwise to increase the
discharge pressure or anticlockwise to decrease the discharge pressure. After the discharge
pressure has been set, tighten the locknut. Setting the safety valve improperly may damage the

unit and may even result in a safety accident, so please not change the setting arbitrarily

III. Replacement of oil filter


1. Shut down the unit.
2. Ensure that the oil pipeline is free from pressure to prevent oil jetting.
3. Replace the oil filter with a new one using a special tool.

IV. Cleaning of air cleaner

Remove the gate of the air filter, screw off the butterfly nut
and remove the filter element.
Blow dust off the filter element with low-pressure
compressed air (0.2MPa) (as shown in the figure).
Blow dust off the air filter box and the air duct with an air
gun.
After cleaning, fit the filter element into the air filter box and
replace the air filter gate.

V. Cleaning of cooler

If the water pipeline is cleaned only, remove the end cap of the
cooler only, and clean the water pipeline with a detergent.
To clean the fins: As shown in the figure, remove the bolts, and
then pull out the cooler core slowly with a traveling crane or
electric hoist until the cooler is pulled out;
Then clean the cooler casing and the cooler core. Note that the
cooler core should be cleaned in a way that does not damage the
cooler fins;
After cleaning, replace the cooler fins, and replace the cooler core
into the casing with a traveling crane or electric hoist.
Note: An antirust agent should be applied on the screws so as not
to hinder the next cleaning operation.

VI. Cleaning of filter screen

Remove the filter screen;


Blow dust off the filter screen with low-pressure compressed air
(0.2MPa) (as shown in the figure, do not remove the filter
screen);
After cleaning, replace the filter screen.

General Lubricant Replacement Procedure of the FushengTM Oil-free
Screw Air Compressor
Although the FushengTM lubricant is highly resistant to oxidation, it would be oxidized
over time because it is working under high temperatures when the unit is running. Therefore,
the user should replace the lubricant in the unit at the specified interval.
Before the lubricant is replaced, if the main performance indicators of the lubricant in
the unit do not exceed the limits, the following procedure should be followed: 1) Start the
unit, shut it down after about one hour of normal operation, and drain up the lubricant in the
system while the unit is still hot (drain up the lubricant in the oil cooler, oil filter, body and
pipelines as much as possible). 2) Add lubricant at 2/3 of the normal refilling amount, run the
unit for 20 minutes (note that the lubricant temperature should be below 60℃), shut down
the unit, and drain up the lubricant in the system while the unit is still hot (drain up the
lubricant in the oil cooler, oil filter, body head and pipelines as much as possible). 3) Replace
the oil filter. 4) Add the FushengTM lubricant at the normal amount. The lubricant replacement
operation is completed.
