1.3 Compressor Fluid

The portable screw air compressor designed and manufactured by Sullair, can use the following fluid which
is suitable for serious oxidative condition. The adaptive ambient temperature and load condition is different
according to the fluid type, so does the fluid change period. Five-year warranty service is only available
when Sullair AWF fluid designated by Sullair is used.
o
Fluid Type Change Period(Hours) Ambient Temperature C

Sullair AWF 500 2949
Mobil 1 Synthetic AFT 800 2949
Mobil Rarus SHC 1026 800 1052
Mobil Rarus SHC 1024 1,000 2938
Note: Part numbers for Sullair AWF are 250030-757(5gal/19 liter package) and 250030-758(55 gal/208
liter package).
Normally, portable screw air compressor designed and manufactured by Sullair is equipped with
SullairAWF fluid. This fluid is a kind of heavy-duty, multi-viscosity, all-weather fluid applicable for
various climate conditions, being the special portable screw compressor oil supplied by the manufacturer,
having good application performance.
Periodically remove the condensate at the bottom of the fluid/air separator. In high ambient temperature
and high humidity conditions, condensed moisture may emulsify with the fluid. The fluid should be
changed if this condition develops severly.
DO NOT mix different types or brands of fluid. Mixing different fluids may lead to operational problems
such as foaming, filter plugging, orifice or line plugging. If serious, it will cause cooler plugging or air-end
locking.
When ambient temperature exceeds specification or if conditions require use of other extended life fluid,
contact Sullair. Sullair encourages the user to participate in a fluid analysis program. This could result in a
fluid change interval. Sullair offers analysis for Sullair AWF. Contact Sullair representative for details.

1.4 Diesel Engine oil

Diesel engine shall use multi-grade oil of API CH-4 above multi-grade fluid or EMA LRG-1 multi-grade
fluid conforming to American Petroleum Institute (API). Using nonconforming engine oil will seriously
affect the service life of engine and may cause accidents such as scuffing or bush-burning, etc.

Fluid Brand
EMA LRG-1, API CH-4 Ambient temperature

SAE 0W30 Engine oil for ultra low temperature (-40~-25)

SAE 5W30 Engine oil for low temperature (-15~-30)
SAE 10W30 Engine oil for low temperature (-5~-20)
SAE 15W40 Engine oil for normal temperature (-10~+38)
SAE 20W40 Engine oil for high temperature (above +38) or under severe load
condition
Caution: Using low-viscosity engine oil, e.g. 10W-30, will be helpful for engine startup and providing
sufficient fluid volume under low ambient temperature. However, continuous use of low-viscosity engine
oil will reduce the engine service life.
70506-J premium blue engine oil provided by Sullair can ensure normal operation of the diesel engine
under normal temperature (-10 ~+38 ). The Sullair part number for premium blue engine oil is:
88290003-329.

1.5 Engine Coolant

Anti-freeze & anti-rust coolant not only prevents the water jacket of cylinder block/head and water tank
from cracking due to freezing in winter, it also prevents the rust and removes the scale. Moreover, the
boiling point of the anti-freeze & anti-rust solution is higher than that of the ordinary water, which also has
certain advantage on the cooling system. Therefore, this engine series requires anti-freeze & anti-rust
coolant throughout the year and never use ordinary cooling water.
Coolant also acts as lubricant in water pump of the engine.
Anti-freeze & anti-rust coolant normally consists of three compositions: water, additive and glycol (or
ethylene glycol), and the three compositions are concocted in certain proportion. The proportion must be
controlled precisely, because different proportions will have different effects.
It is recommended to use distilled water or de-ionized water in engine cooling system. If there is no
distilled water or de-ionized water, please use water that meets the requirements in the following table:
Minimum requirement of water acceptable to diesel engine
Item Upper limit
Chloride (CL-1) 40mg/l
-2 100mg/l
Sulfate (SO4 )
Total hardness 170mg/l
Total solid 340mg/l
Acidity Ph5.59.0
Sullair offers DCA60L-J anti-rust additive to supplement the concentration of anti-freeze & anti-rust
solution, ensuring the service life of the diesel engine cooling system. No anti-rust additive is required for
new machine. Only add when experiment indicates that the SCA (supplementary coolant additive)
concentration is lower than 6%. It is suggested to use 6%-8% SCA in the coolant. Sullair part number for
DCA60L-J anti-rust water is: 88290002-597.
Sullair offers the concentrated anti-freeze liquid (glycols). Through different mixing ratio with water, it can
make the freezing point and boiling point of the cooling system to various points. Glycol concentration in
Sullair coolant is 50%.
Sullairs part number of concentrated anti-freeze anti-rust liquid is 88290002-598.

Glycol concentration
Concentration Anti-freeze protection Boiling protection
50% -32 106
60% -50 108
Warning
If the machine is intended to be stored or operated in cold region, the lowest local ambient
temperature should be acquired to make sure the lowest anti-freeze protection temperature of
coolant is lower than lowest ambient temperature so as to avoid damage to diesel engine and cooling
system.

1.6 Diesel Fuel

User can choose light diesel fuel of different brands based on the local atmospheric temperature:
0# light diesel fuel Atmospheric temperature above 4
10# light diesel fuel Atmospheric temperature above -5
20# light diesel fuel Atmospheric temperature -14 ~ -5
35# light diesel fuel Atmospheric temperature -29 ~ -14
The following suggestions are provided for you, aimed at the reality that the cleanness of the domestic
diesel engine is commonly somewhat low and the experience of use of Cummins diesel engine on the
mineral equipments and the mechanical respect of non-highway third-phase engineering:
1. It is easy to make the fuel a secondary pollution, when to store, transport and fill it on the equipment
operation site, so a fixed or portable fuel filter station is recommended to use.
2. Because the quality of the fuel filter comes as the directly influential factor on the fuel cleanness used
with the electric controlled diesel engine, so such a filtering product as holding a high water
containing capability and a high filtering precision and being fitted with sensor of water content in fuel
has been used with the compressor unit in this company.
3. Strictly follow the standards for use and maintenance of Cummins engine, correctly use the electric
controlled diesel engine and lower the influence of the diesel quality on the electric controlled diesel
engine.
Warning
Since diesel will separate out the paraffin crystal first before solidification, blocking the fuel line
and fuel filter, causing the diesel engine unable to start, appropriate light diesel must be used at low
temperature. Before the wax is formed from the diesel, thoroughly drain the diesel not conforming to
the environment requirement, including all diesels engine in fuel line and fuel filter.

3.2 Machine Layout

See Fig. 3-1 for parts and layout of 900XH-980RH, 780VH/850RH series diesel engine driven portable
screw compressor of Sullair. The machine consists of compressor & diesel engine system, compressor inlet
system, engine inlet system, compressor discharge system, compressor cooling and lubrication system,
engine cooling and lubrication system, control system, engine exhaust system, fuel system, electrical
system, frame-moving system, etc. Enclosure of the machine is equipped with good acoustic materials to
minimize noise of the compressor on the surrounding environment.
The compressor is driven by the rear side of output shaft of diesel engine through a heavily spring type
coupling mounted on flywheel. Air filtered by inlet filter enters the inlet chamber of compressor through
inlet valve, and then compressed in screw groove before being discharged from outlet of air end. Then the
compressed air enters fluid/air separator for oil/gas separation. Separated compressed air with little oil goes
through min pressure valve, air service piping and service globe valve for customer to use. Separated fluid
sets to the bottom of fluid/air separator and is cooled by fluid cooler and returned to the chamber of
compressor unit for reuse under pressure difference.

3.3.1 Compressor Air End

The compressor air end is very important in the portable screw compressor unit, featuring US Sullair
designed and made double-stage, oil injection and lubricated type. This unit provides continuous gas
pulsation-free compressed air to meet your needs. Compared to other compressors, the Sullair compressor
air end is unique in mechanical reliability and durability design. With its working parts meeting the
inspection free process requirement, free of maintenance and internal inspection for normal operation.
Inside the casing of the compressor, there is a pair of parallel fine-machined rotors (male rotor and female
rotor) with spiral grooves. Inlet and outlet are diagonally placed on rotor case. Screw groove of female
rotor meshes with and is driven by the screw tooth of male rotor. In a working cycle of inhaling, enclosing,
compressing and exhaling, the revolving rotors enclose inhaled air in the closed screw groove space
between rotors and case, and the bulk of screw groove space varies as the rotors are revolving.
Rotors revolve to suck air; in the meantime, large amount of fluid is injected into the closed screw groove
space between rotors and case through a specially designed injector and mix with air directly. Fluid serves
for three main purposes:
1) As coolant, the injected fluid controls the rise of compressed air temperature by absorbing large
amount of heat normally associated with compression.
2) Seals the leakage gap between the rotors and the case and also that between the rotors to reduce
internal leak of compressed air.
3) Acts as a lubricating film between the rotors, allowing the male rotor to directly drive the female
rotor. It also absorbs part of mechanical noise.
3.3.2 Diesel Engine
Diesel engine is another crucial part of the portable screw compressor unit. This series diesel engine uses
CUMMINS QSM11 diesel engine to drive the portable screw compressor unit. It features the best dynamic
characteristic, simple maintenance and less work of service.

3.4 Compressor Inlet System

See Fig. 3-3. The compressor inlet system provides clean air to the compressor. It consists of one air filter,
one inlet control valve and one filter element pressure difference indicator.

900XH-980RH&780VH/850RH Series Diesel Portable Screw Compressor Operation and Maintenance Manual Chapter III System Function Description

Air filter of inlet system adopts cross-flow mode, capable of dealing with very dirty air. Operator should
frequently clean the dust gathered in the dust pocket in the rear cover of air filter. If the pressure drop alarm
of filter turns red, then the flow resistance in air filter is too high. Please service or replace the main filter
element in time. A safety element is equipped in the filter to give temporary protection in case of main
filter element failure. Safety filter element does not need maintenance normally and should be replaced
together with the main element.

Caution: (1) The diameter of safety filter element is larger than that of main element. It only provides
temporary protection in case of main element failure (for 4 to 6 hours). Therefore, the failed main
element must be replaced immediately. Otherwise, rotor wear or bearing damage could occur.

(2) If the pressure drop alarm indicator at the outlet of air filter turns red, please service or replace the
filter element promptly and then press the reset button on the end of pressure difference indicator to
clear the alarm.

Piping of inlet system is made of high quality rubber hoses, capable of resisting cold or hot environment
and is highly durable. To ensure air tightness and reliability, stainless steel T screw-type hoops are used
for connection of inlet system.

Warning

Never use iron wire to strap the rubber hose. Never use rubber hose with crack. If a loose T screw-type hoop or
hose damage is found, stop the machine immediately and take measures to ensure air tightness of the piping.
Never attempt to run the machine when air filter element is not present in the air filter or is damaged, otherwise
the compressor air end may be seriously damaged.

3.5 Diesel Engine Inlet System

Diesel engine inlet system provides clean air to the engine. See Fig. 3-4. Engine inlet system consists of
one air filter, one intake pipe and one filter element pressure difference indicator and etc.

Air filter of diesel engine inlet system is the same as air filter of compressor, using cross-flow mode,
capable of dealing with very dirty air. Operator should frequently clean the dust gathered in the dust
particle pocket in the rear cover of air filter. If the pressure drop alarm of filter turns red, then the flow
resistance in air filter is too high. Please service or replace the main filter element in time. A safety element
is equipped in the filter to give temporary protection in case of main filter element failure. Safety filter
element does not need maintenance normally and should be replaced together with the main element.

Caution: (1) The diameter of safety filter element is larger than that of main element. It only provides
temporary protection in case of main element failure (for 4 to 6 hours). Therefore, the failed main
element must be replaced immediately. Otherwise, early engine wear or even cylinder scuffing
could occur.

(2) If the pressure drop alarm indicator of air filter turns red, please service or replace the filter
element promptly and then press the reset button on the end of pressure difference indicator to clear
the alarm.

Piping of diesel engine inlet system is made of high quality rubber hoses, capable of resisting cold or hot
environment and is highly durable. To ensure air tightness and reliability, stainless steel T screw-type
hoops are used for connection of intake system of compressor unit.

Warning

Never use iron wire to strap the rubber hose. Never use rubber hose with crack. If a loose T hoop or hose damage
is found, stop the machine immediately and take measures to ensure air tightness of the piping.
Never attempt to run the machine when air filter element is not present in the air filter or is damaged, otherwise the
engine may be seriously damaged.

3.6 Compressor Discharge System

Compressor discharge system consists of fluid/air separator, discharge check valve, min pressure valve,
relief valve, air service valve, discharge piping, etc. See Fig. 3-5.

Fig. 3-5 Compressor discharge system

In a working compressor, air trapped in the screw grooves is compressed constantly; meanwhile the fluid
continuously injected into screw grooves absorbs the heat created in compression. When the bulk of screw
groove drops to certain value (designed value), screw groove space is connected to a specifically designed
outlet, and oil/air mixture is discharged. Since there are multiple screw grooves between the rotor pair, and
rotors revolve at high speed, compressed air is discharged continuously without surge.
Oil/air mixture discharged from air end then enters a specifically designed fluid/air separator. Oil/air
mixture flows along the inside of sump tank due to high speed. Most of the fluid is separated from air due
to centrifugal effect and forms larger fluid droplets. Fluid droplets fall to the bottom of the sump under the

15
900XH-980RH&780VH/850RH Series Diesel Portable Screw Compressor Operation and Maintenance Manual Chapter III System Function Description

effect of gravity. Baffle boards and isolation boards inside the separator make air and fluid droplets spin
and change direction, to separate more and more fluid from compressed air. After first stage of separation,
only tiny amount of fluid mist is left behind. As the air travels through the element of the separator, fine
fluid droplets are condensed on separator elements fiber due to collision, dispersion and interception.
Droplets collected on the outer side of fiber then fall to the bottom of sump tank under gravity. Droplets
collected on the inner side of fiber converge at the bottom of separator element. A return line leads from the
bottom of separator element to the low pressure chamber of compressor unit. Fluid collecting on the bottom
of the separator is returned to the low pressure chamber of compressor unit due to pressure difference. The
return line is equipped with an orifice (with filter) to ensure steady fluid return. A check valve is also
provided in return line to prevent fluid backflow from compressor unit to filter element, which may
otherwise contaminate discharge air with fluid content next time the machine is started.
A min pressure valve is equipped between the fluid/air separator and air service valve to establish a
minimum tank pressure when the compressor unit is operating, to maintain proper operation of lubrication
system. When the machine is not operating or unloaded, the min pressure valve acts as a check valve to
prevent compressed air from backflow. Triggering pressure of the min pressure valve is 9.7 bar (140 psi),
which has been set before shipment.
After separation, oil content in the compressed air is only a few PPMs. Compressed air is available to user
through the min pressure valve. There are two air service valves of different specifications on the bottom of
control panel side, so as to accommodate different needs of the user.
A relief valve is equipped on the cylinder of separator. When air pressure inside the tank exceeds pressure
setting of the relief valve, the relief valve opens automatically. Triggering pressure of relief valve is preset
at factory. Please do not change. A temperature probe and a temperature switch are equipped on the
discharge tube of air end. If compressor discharge temperature is above 129 (265F), the temperature
switch shuts down the machine automatically.
The fluid filling plug screw of separator has been specially designed to discharge residual pressure within
the tank when you disassemble the machine. Two sight glasses on the cylinder are used to observe fluid
level inside the separator. For a machine not in operation, fluid level should fall slightly below the center of
upper sight glass.
Warning
DO NOT remove nuts, oil filling plug, and other parts when the compressor is running or pressurized. Shut down
and bleed all internal pressure of the compressor prior to maintenance.
NEVER replace with or use the relief valve of other type.

3.7 Compressor Cooling and Lubrication System

The cooling and lubrication system of compressor consists of fluid/air separator, fluid cooler, fluid filter,
thermal valve, fluid stop valve and piping. See Fig. 3-6.
Compressor fluid not only serves as the coolant, absorbing heat generated in
compression to control temperature rise of compressed air, but also the sealant between
rotors and case, and lubricant of moving rotors.
Thermal valve is a directional valve with temperature probe. It has two outlets, B and D,
and two inlets, A and C. Fluid enter through C. During start-up period, fluid temperature
is not high enough to activate the thermal valve element (temperature probe), so the
tunnel between C and D is closed. Fluid flows to fluid filter directly without passing
through fluid cooler, and further reaches the working chamber and bearing
lubrication points through bypass outlet B and fluid filter.
Fluid heats up as the compressor continues to work. When temperature reaches 93C (200F), thermal valve
element starts to work to partly close the tunnel between C and B and open the tunnel between C and D
gradually, part of the fluid flows to fluid cooler. Cooled fluid flows through A and mix with bypassed hot
fluid and enter the air end through fluid filter. As fluid continues to heat up, the tunnel between C and B
narrows until totally shuts off at 102C (215F). Now all of the fluid flows through D to fluid cooler.
Cooled fluid enters the working chamber and bearing lubrication points from A through bypass B and fluid
filter.

Fluid filter is composed of filter base and screw-type filter element with a build-in bypass valve to ensure
unblocked fluid way in case of clogged filter element or high fluid viscosity. There is a pressure difference

16
900XH-980RH&780VH/850RH Series Diesel Portable Screw Compressor Operation and Maintenance Manual Chapter III System Function Description

messenger on the top of the fluid filter. When it turns to red, the filter element should be replaced.

Fluid stop valve is used to prevent a large amount of fluid/air backflow from opening the relief valve
between two stages in case of machine failure or emergency shutdown.

3.8.1 Diesel Engine Lubrication System

Engine lubrication system provides pressurized lubricant to the moving parts of engine to create fluid
friction (contact-free friction), and to cool those parts unable or difficult to be cooled by cooling system.
The system also cleans the surface of engine parts.
See Chapter I.4 Engine oil for details of engine oil.

900XH-980RH&780VH/850RH Series Diesel Portable Screw Compressor Operation and Maintenance Manual Chapter III System Function Description

3.8.2 Diesel Engine Cooling System

Engine cooling system is comprised of waterway and air cooling modes, with the former one big and one
small cycling systems are formed by opening and closing the temperature control valve of the diesel engine
to have the diesel engine guaranteed to work within a reasonable range while the latter cools the incoming
air of the diesel engine which is warmed by the booster through the middle cooler to further enlarge the
density of air to increase the output power of the diesel engine.
Waterway cooling system of the engine consists of water tank (radiator), water pump, thermostat, water
jacket and rubber pipe. Through cooling the diesel engine, the cooling system can ensure the diesel engine to
work under the most suitable temperature all the time and thus get a higher dynamic characteristic, economy and
reliability.
CUMMINS electric injection diesel engine carries out monitor on the coolant temperature all the time and will
be automatically stopped once the said temperature reaches the set one. If engine temperature persists above
99 , the engine oil will deteriorate at an early time and the non-metal flexible parts in engine and cooling
system will harden sooner. Therefore operating time above 99 should be avoided as much as possible.
Operation at such a condition shall not exceed 50h within a year.
Water tank is an important component within engine cooling system. It is an enclosed, direct flow, forced
circulation tube-and-fin radiator with pressure cap. The opening threshold of pressure cap is 50kPa, which
guarantees that water will not boil below 108 and at an altitude of 1500m. Pressure cap not only enhances
cooling performance of the radiator, but also reduces or even eliminates bubble and air-lock in the coolant
circulation, especially the air-lock effect around pump inlet (where the pressure is the lowest). Pressure cap
keeps pump inlet at positive pressure, reducing erosion on pump impeller and case, ensuring stable coolant
flow and removing heat from the engine with sufficient coolant.
Please use long-life antifreeze & antirust coolant for the diesel engine. See Chapter I.5 Engine Coolant.
Antifreeze & antirust coolant does not erode metal or rubber materials, and can ensure that no scale would
form in water jackets of the cooling system to protect engine in extremely cold regions. Coolant should be
changed every 2 years or 3000 hours. A properly sealed system needs not to add coolant frequently.
However, user should check and refill antirust in the coolant regularly to maintain the concentration. Please
fill the coolant slowly in order to release air remnant in the water way of engine and vapor created at high
temperature.

Caution: DO NOT MIX antifreeze & antirust of different brands.

3.9 Control System

Control system (see Fig. 3-8 System schematics) is capable of modulating inlet air volume and engine
speed automatically based on air demand, while maintaining a fixed service pressure. The system consists
of the following components:
Inlet control valve, pressure regulation valve, pressure reducing valve, circle unloading valve, start/run/stop
switch, high/low pressure selection switch, orifice, piping and connectors connect to the components.
Normally the control system needs not to be adjusted. In case adjustment is necessary, written approval
from Sullair shall be obtained. Please refer to Chapter IV.6 Mode Setting Procedure.
To modulate the capacity of the compressor is to modulate inlet air volume by varying engines speed and
controlling the opennes of inlet valve. The compressor has four working modes: A. Starting/warm-up mode;
B. Loaded operating mode; C. Modulating mode; and D. Shutdown mode.
3.9.1 Starting/warm-up Mode
Set the high/low pressure selection switch to Low Voltage and set the start/run/stop swich to Run to
power on the compressor. Observe the fuel level and battery voltage. Correct any abnormal condition. Put
the start/run/stop switch to START to start the machine. Under the action of vacuum at this time, the air
inlet control valve is opened slightly and the system pressure goes rising slowly. During the pressure raise,
the pressure regulation valve does not act, and the controlling air gets into the control cylinder of the said
valve via the starting pipe of the pressure reduction valve to slowly reduce the openness of the air inlet
control valve and also control the cycling unload valve to open to make sure of the cycled work and, on the
other hand, into the back pressure side of the speed regulation cylinder of the diesel engine to have the
speed controlled at the idle speed (1200 rpm).
Once getting normally started, the unit goes into the warm-up state, with the time of warm-up already set at
ex-works of it.
3.9.2 Working conditions at loaded running
Once the diesel engine gets sufficiently preheated, the unit will go into the running state automatically, and
the controlling air will enter the air inlet control valve, via the pressure reduction valve and the running
pipeline, to control the other side of the control cylinder to have the valve fully opened and, at the same
time, enter the speed regulation cylinder of the diesel engine to have the diesel engine run at the full speed.
When the system pressure reaches the set pressure of the minimum pressure valve, the minimum pressure
valve will be opened, and the unit starts air supply outwards. The air-in valve is fully open, then, the unit is
running with a load and will go into the working conditions of normal run along with the system pressure
quickly reaching the rated one. This unit is fitted with a high pressure/low pressure selection button and,
upon the different requirement of work, it can be set accordingly.
3.9.3 Modulating Mode
If the demand of compressed air is lower than machines setting delivery, system pressure will increase. The
pressure regulation valve will be gradually opened to lower the speed of the diesel engine, when the system
pressure is over the set one of it, in the mean time, close the air-inlet valve per a certain proportion and quickly
and stably respond to the current working conditions (0~100% air volume). When the air supply volume stays at
0%, the diesel engine moves at the idle speed, the high pressure air will open the cycling unload valve to reduce
the moving load of the unit, the pressure regulation valve is fully opened and the air-inlet valve is fully closed,
the cycled work of the compressor at this time is maintained with the cycling unload valve.
If demand of compressed air increases now, system pressure will drop. The pressure regulation valve will be
closed, when the pressure lowers below the set value of it, then the diesel engine moves at the full speed, the
air-inlet valve is fully opened and the unit works with full load.
So moves in circles, flexibly responded.

3.9.4 Shutdown Mode

When shutting down the machine, air inlet control valve quickly closes inlet port through its return spring.
Since the pressure on the two sides of valve element in circle unloading valve is different, the valve
element starts to move to open the circle unloading valve, thus venting the compressed air within fluid/air
separator. The machine is now running at a lower system pressure. When the machine is started again, the
valve element will move to the other side to close the circle unloading valve
In case of emergency, press emergency stop button to stop the machine immediately. Note that in such a
case, the cooling & lubrication system of compressor unit and engine will stop to work immediately while
the machine is still very hot. Therefore frequent emergency stop can be harmful to the machine. Do not use
the emergency stop button unless there is an emergency.
3.9.5 Hot-air back-flowing control
As showed in Fig. 3-9, in order to prevent both control valve and control pipeline from getting iced during work
in a severely cold area in winters, a hot-air back-flowing system is set with this series unit to have the hot-air
heated via the cooler, guided through the empty cavity of the base, flowing into the control valve and the
collected point of the control pipeline to implement the heating on both. There are two small doors at the exhaust
place of the cooler on the rear end of the unit and are used to make the hot-air on and off and can be closed in a
hot weather.

3.11 Engine Fuel System

Fuel supply system is an important system of diesel engine. It significantly influences the power, cost
effectiveness, reliability and durability of the engine. Fuel system provides sufficient clean fuel free of dust,
water and air, to meet the requirements of engine on power, torque, RPM, fuel consumption, noise,
emission, start-up and idle speed etc.
The fuel system consists of fuel tank, filling strainer, suction filter, fuel prefilter (with water separator), fuel
filter (mounted on the diesel engine), fuel level sensor and fuel piping. See Fig. 3-12.
Filling filter in mounted on the soundproof enclosure of the machine. It is convenient for filling operation
and can prevent impurities from entering the system during filling.

Fuel pre-filter Fuel tank

Fuel port, fuel inlet filter

Connecting pipe, guard

Fuel suction filter

Fig. 3-12 Fuel System

Suction filter is mounted on fuel tank. It is used to further remove impurities inside fuel tank.
The prefilter is installed after suction filter and is equipped with an oil/water separator. It not only removes
water inside fuel, but also effectively reduces the pressue on fuel filters of the engine.
Fuel filter prevent impurities from damaging fuel injector and other parts of the fuel system.

30
900XH-980RH&780VH/850RH Series Diesel Portable Screw Compressor Operation and Maintenance Manual Chapter III System Function Description

Maintain the fuel system according to requirements, you will find out that it is easy to keep the fuel
system at its top performance and lowest fault rate.
Fuel tank capacity is of 700L, sufficient for the operation of one shift. A drain valve under the bottom of
fuel tank is used to remove water and impurities accumulated at the bottom of tank regularly.
See Chapter I.6 Diesel Fuel for details of fuel. See the Operation and Maintenance Manual of
CUMMINS for details of fuel system of the engine.

3.12 Diesel Engine Exhaust System

Diesel engine exhaust system operates to reduce exhaust noise, prevent exhaust from leaking and keep
exhaust way clear. The system consists of air discharge pipe, muffler, rainproof cap, etc. See Fig. 3-13.

Rainproof cap

Muffler

Muffler shield

Exhaust pipe, exhaust

Diesel engine exhaust

manifold insulating sleeve

Fig. 3-13 Engine exhaust system

Turbocharger connects to intake manifold on one end and exhaust manifold on the other. All air/fume
sucked in/exhausted by diesel engine goes through the turbocharger. When the engine is running, fume
from exhaust manifold enters turbocharger and pushes impeller to roll; on the other end, air from air filter
enters the inlet of turbocharger case and is compressed by turbocharger impeller before flowing into the
intake manifold of engine.

1
1) Use fuel manufactured by a reputable company. Fuel must be settled for at least 24 hours before using to fully separate
water and impurities.
2) Clean water in the water separator and fuel tank everyday before starting to work.
3) Top up fuel tank with diesel after work everyday to expel air and prevent condensate.
4) Clean and service fuel system and fuel filter element as specified in time.

31
900XH-980RH&780VH/850RH Series Diesel Portable Screw Compressor Operation and Maintenance Manual Chapter III System Function Description

When engine load increases, more fuel will be injected into cylinder and thus more fume generated,
causing turbocharger impeller revolving faster to suck more air. Since extra air is provided by turbocharger,
more fuel will combust, thus higher output power of the engine.
Top speed of turbocharger is controlled by turbocharger control tube, maximum engine racing speed setting
and field altitude.
To eliminate potential scalding or fire caused by hot surface of exhaust piping, the exhaust pipe is covered
with heat insulation sleeve to insulate heat and reduce noise.
A section of corrugated metal tube is inserted into exhaust pipe to accommodate heat expansion and
deformation caused by vibration. The rainproof cap above the outlet of silencer prevents rain/snow from
entering into the silencer. Do not remove the rainproof cap or replace with an inappropriate one.

3.13 Frame-Moving System

The machine is mounted on a movable frame, a 4-wheel moving system with front-wheel steer and reliable
parking brake system. The drawbar can be folded during lifting and transportation.
A safety chain is provided to protect the machine during towing. Please securely fasten the safety chain to
towing vehicle before towing and disengage the chain when parking brake system is activated after towing.

3.14 Enclosure System

The canopy of the machine is elegant and conducive to ventilation. All components need to be serviced can
be accessed through air spring supported flip-up service doors for convenioet maintenance of the
compressor unit. Canopy is properly sealed to prevent rain. Heat-resisting, flame-retardant and acoustic
material is arranged inside the enclosure, significantly reducing noise of the machine. Reflective label and
warning decal on the enclosure provide instruction to operators on how to operate and maintain the
machine properly and safely.

4.6.2 Setting of Low Pressure Mode
1) Close all service valves.
2) Start the machine according to normal start-up procedure.
3) Set high/low pressure selection switch to LOW.
4) Slowly open the service valve (venting behind) to speed up the engine. Then adjust the opening of
service valve to maintain system pressure (tank pressure) at 10.3bar (150psi).
5) Slowly close the service valve. When system pressure reaches 10.3 + (1 ~ 1.4bar), the pressure will
not rise any more. Now the engine runs at idle speed and the machine stops to supply air. If the set
pressure is not achieved, adjust pressure regulation valve accordingly.
6) Open/close service valve repeatedly and check the system operating pressure setting. If the setting is
incorrect, find out causes and readjust until the pressure setting is right. Then lock with adjusting
screw.
Warning
Service valve should be opened slowly. Opening/closing service valve frequently or opening the service valve
abruptly may introduce oil in compressed air or abnormal opening of relief valve.

4.7 Jump Start Procedure

The battery may contain hydrogen. Since hydrogen is highly inflammable and explosive, no sparks, flames and
other sources of ignition shall be present near the compressor.

35
900XH-980RH&780VH/850RH Series Diesel Portable Screw Compressor Operation and Maintenance Manual Chapter IV Operation

Electrolyte in battery is highly corrosive and toxic. Never contact it with eyes, skin or fabrics. Otherwise, it
may cause personal injury or loss of property. In case of electrolyte spill, flush with large amount of water immediately.

1) Before jump start, read Chapter II Safety of this manual carefully. Jump start is an emergency
procedure in case that the battery capacity is low.
2) Wear an acid-proof apron and a face mask before operation.
3) Remove the vent hole cap of battery (if any). Be cautious not to allow the dust or impurities to fall into
the battery. Check the level of electrolyte and add if necessary. Then use clean wet cloth to cover the
vent hole. Maintenance free battery does not need electrolyte level check.
Caution: If the electrolyte is frozen or has ice in it, never start the compressor. Otherwise, the battery may explode .
4) Park the power source vehicle beside the machine. Note that there should be no metal contact between
the vehicle and compressor.
5) Activate the parking brake of power source vehicle and block wheels using stone blocks or other
objects.
6) Set the power source vehicle to Neutral or Parking gear. Turn off irrelevant electrical equipment on the
vehicle and start engine.
7) Connect one end of the first jumper wire with the positive pole of the source vehicle. If the power
source vehicle has two 12V batteries in series, connect the wire onto the positive pole of the
non-grounded battery.
8) Connect the other end of the jumper wire with the positive pole of the battery of compressor starter. If
the power source vehicle has two 12V batteries in series, connect the wire onto the positive pole of the
non-grounded battery.
9) Connect one end of the second jumper wire with the negative pole of the power source vehicle. If the
power source vehicle has two 12V batteries in series, connect the wire onto the negative pole of the
grounded battery.
10) Connect the other end of the second jumper wire onto the diesel engine.
11) Start the machine according to normal starting procedure. Be careful not to ignite continuously for a
long period of time.
12) Let the engine warm up to steady condition at idle speed. Remove the negative terminal from the
machine, and then remove the other end from the negative pole of the power source vehicle. Remove
another wire from the positive pole of the machine battery, and finally remove the positive terminal
from the power source vehicle.

Caution: 1) The jumper wire should be clean, and the rated current of the wire should be greater than the starting
current.
2) Avoid accidental contact of the wire lead and wire clip with other metal parts to prevent electric arc,
which may cause fire.
3) Do not connect 24V power supply to a battery of 12V, and do not use a 12V battery to start the
compressor requiring 24V voltage.
4) Only use the power source vehicle with a battery system similar to that of the machine for power
supply, and the supply voltage should be the same. Do not use power generator, electric welder or
other DC power as power source, which may cause accident.
5) Make sure the wire lead is firmly attached and is away from fuel line, crankcase vent hole and battery.

The machine is installed with original low-temperature start battery at factory.

4.8 Storage
If the machine is not operated for a few weeks, fluid will run off from lubrication surface of engine and
compressor. Lack of lubricant will cause rust on friction pair parts and create direct metal contact between
piston ring, piston and cylinder sleeve, between the shaft and bearing and between the crankshaft and
connecting rod bearing pad upon next startup. Such direct metal contact, especially when rusty, will greatly
shorten the service life of machine. Therefore, it is required to do the following after operation each time:
1) Carry out maintenance as per maintenance regulations in this manual, and cover the
rain-protection plastic shield onto the machine.
2) The machine storage place should be clean and dry, free of corrosive gas.
3) Start the machine once a week (at least once a month), and carry out routine regular inspection. If
the machine is not to be used for a long period of time, protect and keep the machine properly.
For the requirements of safekeeping, please contact Sullair After-sales Service Department and
CUMMINS After-sales Service Department.

Chapter V MAINTENANCE
5.1 General
Appropriate maintenance is crucial to the operation and lifespan of the machine. Therefore, the
maintenance procedures of rotary screw compressor must be followed. Service program given below will
keep the machine at top performance. Besides this section, see the Operation and Maintenance Manual
of CUMMINS for maintenance of diesel engine. Before any maintenance work, please read Chapter II
Safety of this manual.
Warning
Maintenance not only affects proper operation of the compressor but also the safety of the operators.
Please drain water in the fuel water separator and fuel tank every day before starting the machine to
ensure proper operation of diesel engine.
Do not remove nuts, oil filling plugs, and other parts when the compressor is running or pressurized.
Shut down and bleed internal pressure of the compressor prior to maintenance.

5.2 Maintenance of Screw Compressor

Screw Compressor Maintenance Schedule describes the daily service of the compressor. Please service
the machine according to the Operating Hour or Maintenance Interval stated in the Schedule, whichever
comes first.
Check fluid level before starting. If fluid level is low, please refill. If the machine needs to be refilled
frequently, you need to check the machine. See Troubleshooting.
Once the machine is started, check instrument readings. After the machine is warmed up, check all
instruments/gauges and check for oil/air leakage. Check for abnormal mechanical sound. If yes, please stop
and release pressure before taking further procedures.

5.2.1 Relief valve maintenance

Plugged relief valve will result in failure to open, or cannot automatically close after opening. In the first
case, the relief valve will not provide protection against the pressure system, thus the compressor. In the
latter case, fluid blowing out of the fluid/air seperator may lead to property loss. Stop the compressor
weekly and check the relief valve condition.
5.2.2 Fluid filter maintenance
After initial 50 hours operation, change fluid filter element, and then after every 500 hours or four months
of operation, change the element. For element change procedure see Chapter V.4: Parts Replacement
and Adjustment Procedures. It is necessary to stop the machine before changing the element. Carefully
wipe away dirty or oily foreign substances and avoid foreign substance entering the lubrication system.
5.2.3 Fluid maintenance
If AWF fluid is used, change the fluid every 500 operating hours or 4 months, whichever comes first.
Note: Change interval of different types of fluid varies. Refer to detailed information in Chapter I: SPECIFICATIONS.
If the compressor is running in bad environment, change interval will be shortened.
Some fluids are incompatible, if mixed, will lead to formation of indiscernible sediment, which may cause fluid
filter plugged and other severe problems. Therefore, always avoid mixing different types of fluid and use different
type of fluid only after all fluid is drained.
The portable screw air compressor made by Sullair uses Sullair AWF fluid, which is availed at the After-sales
Marketing Department of Sullair and the local branches.

If fluid level in the fluid/air separator is below the middle position of the upper sight glass after the
compressor is shut down, add fluid. However, this addition should be made only after the compressor is
shut down and all pressured is drained.
Note: Formation of indiscernible sediment on the fluid filter element indicates that the compressor fluid is bad for proper
operation, change immediately.
5.2.4 Return line maintenance
The purpose of the return line is to return fluid entrapped in the fluid/air separator element to the
compressor low-pressure chamber, on which orifices keeps proper return flow. If the return line is plugged
severely (mainly in orifice and strainer), discharged air will contain excessive fluid. Check return line
regularly, clean the orifice and strainer.
5.2.5 Fluid cooler maintenance
When oil, grease, dust and dirt collect on the cooler surface, the heat exchange effect will be reduced,
ultimately leading to very high discharge temperature. For every half a month or 100 hours, use vacuum
cleaner, detergent or low-pressure compressed air to clean the cooler surface.
5.2.6 Air filter maintenance
The air filter should be checked daily.
Clean the dust collector daily. Do it more frequently in dusty environment.
When air filter alarm indicator is on, service the filter element. Air filter main element and safty element
should be replaced every 2000 operating hours or a year, whichever comes first. See Chapter V.4 Parts

900XH-980RH&780VH/850RH Series Diesel Portable Screw Compressor Operation and Maintenance Manual Chapter V Maintenance

Replacement and Adjustment Procedures on how to maintain or change filter element.

5.2.7 Fluid/air separator maintenance
Generally, if the air filter and fluid filter are maintained properly, it is not required to change the fluid/air
separator element regularly.
If pressure difference indicator of fluid/air separator points red, or when fluid contained in discharged air
surges, check the fluid/air separator element, or change it as required in Chapter V.4: Parts Replacement
and Adjustment Procedures.
When condensation water mixes with fluid, the fluid will become emulsified and deteriorated. Prior to
routine start, open drain ball valve at the bottom of the fluid/air separator tank to drain condensate water
that was collected in previous day. If fluid emulsification is severe, simply change fluid.
5.2.8 Battery maintenance
Keep battery leads, connectors, and cord grips clean, and wipe with oilcloth to prevent corrosion. Maintain
proper electrolyte level in the battery.
For the electric controlled diesel engine, because of the equipped intelligent electronic control system, the
cold starting property will become better and the speed will become quicker, when working under a low
temperature. However, attention shall be paid to the preheating which shall be done sufficiently by strictly
following the operation and maintenance procedures prior to starting the electric controlled diesel engine.
To get a good improvement on the cold starting property of the electric controlled diesel engine, the
following operation and maintenance method can be used:
1. Improve the working condition of the battery. Check the battery voltage and the electrolyte level
before winter comes and heat the battery or place more batteries in an extremely cold environment.
2. Make sure of the starting motor a sufficient starting torque and check, before winter comes, if the
conductor and joint linking both starting motor of the diesel engine and the battery are loose or
corroded.
5.2.9 Wheel/tyre pressure
The compulsory tyre pressure is 690~760kPa, see Chapter I: SPECIFICATIONS.
Grease roller bearings of the axle each year. To grease, remove end covers.
5.2.10 Hose maintenance
For every 500 hours or four months of operation, check inlet hose, hoses in fluid piping and flexible pipe of
control line, and change if necessary. For every 2000 hours or one year of operation, whichever occurs first,
change the rubber fitting in the fluid rubber line, control line and fuel line.
