Safety Information
This manual describes the safety precautions, structure and functions of all systems and
components, as well as the operation and maintenance methods for the JN series rotary
screw air compressors. The owner and operator shall read the manual carefully. Only after
thorough understanding should the machine be operated for the first time. This manual gives
you a general description of the mechanical and electrical systems and maintenance.
However, if you have any questions about operating and maintenance of the compressor;
please contact your authorized distributor or our service department personnel.
Do not modify the compressor and/or controls in any way except with written factory
approval. While not specifically applicable to all types of compressors with all types of
prime movers, most of the precautionary statements contained herein are applicable to most
compressors and the concepts behind these statements are generally applicable to all
compressors.
Failure to follow any of these precautions may results in severe personal injury,
death, property damage and/or compressor damage
1.3 PRESSURE
A properly sized pressure relief valve must be installed in the discharge piping ahead
(upstream) of any shutoff valve (block valve), heat exchanger, orifice or any potential
blockage point. Failure to install a pressure relief valve could result in the rupturing or
explosion of some system component. Relieve all pressure internally to the compressor prior
to servicing. Do not depend on check valves to hold system pressure. Do not change the
pressure setting of the pressure relief valve, restrict the function of the pressure relief valve,
or replace the pressure relief valve with a plug. Over pressurization of system or compressor
components can occur, resulting in death, severe personal injury or property damage. Do not
operate the compressor at pressures in excess of its rating. Never use plastic pipe, rubber
hose, or soldered joints in any part of the compressed air system. Failure to ensure system
compatibility with compressor piping is dangerous.
-5-
Safety Information
Clean up any spills of lubricant or combustible liquid immediately. Keep sparks and flame
away from the compressor. Do not permit smoking during servicing, such as checking or
adding fluid. Wipe down spills immediately using industrial cleaner as required. Do not use
flammable material for cleaning purposes. Do not operate the compressor in a hazardous
environment unless the compressor has been specially designed for that environment. Wear
personal protective equipment including safety goggles and clothing during servicing the
compressor. Never use a flammable or toxic solvent for cleaning the air filter or any parts.
Do not touch any hot surface and parts during the compressor’s operation. Keep all body
parts away from air/oil receiver tank, steel tubing, air end and after-cooler. Wear personal
protective equipment including gloves while servicing the compressor.
Air from this compressor will cause severe injury or death if used for breathing or food
processing. Air used for those processes must meet OSHA and applicable industry
regulations. This compressor is designed for use in the compression of normal atmospheric
air only. No other gases, vapors or fumes should be exposed to the compressor intake, nor
processed through the compressor. Keep personnel away from the compressed air discharge.
Use compressed air for cleaning purpose, only with effective chip guarding and personal
protective equipment which meet OSHA standard and/or any federal, state, local codes,
standard and regulation.
-6-
Safety Information
Never start the compressor unless it is safe to do so. Do not attempt to operate the
compressor with a known unsafe condition. Tag the compressor and render it inoperative by
disconnecting and locking out all power at the source or otherwise disabling its prime mover
so others who may not know of the unsafe condition cannot attempt to operate it until the
condition is corrected. Install, use and operate the compressor only in full compliance with
all pertinent OSHA regulations and/or any applicable Federal, State, and Local codes,
standards and regulations. Never assume it is safe to work on the compressor because it is
not operating. Many installations have automatic start/stop controls and the compressor may
start at any time.
- Follow all maintenance procedures and check all safety devices on schedule.
- Do not rely on the discharge check valve to isolate the compressed air service line
NOTICE
- Keep panels closed at all times and stay away from hot surfaces to prevent hazards
Every effort has been taken to ensure complete and correct instructions have been included
in this manual. However, possible product updates and changes may have occurred since

2.2 THE COMPRESSION CYCLE
The compressor housing contains two pairs of rotors; The male rotor has five lobes and
female rotor has six flutes. They are constantly and precisely meshed, and housed in the
cylinder with two parallel adjoining bores. All parts are machined to exacting tolerances.
The rotors provide positive-displacement internal compression smoothly and without surging.
As the rotors rotate, air is drawn into the cylinder through the inlet port. A volume of air is
filled and trapped as the rotor lobes pass the inlet port in the cylinders. Compression occurs
as the male rotor rolls into the female flute, progressively reducing the space thereby raising
the pressure. Compression continues until the lobe and flute pass the discharge port. The
compressed air is then discharged into the air/oil separator tank. There are five complete
compression cycles for each complete rotation of the male rotor.
When the compressor is operating, a partial vacuum is produced at the compressor inlet.
Fluid is injected into the compressor unit and mixed with the air. The fluid has three basic
functions:
As a coolant, it controls the rise in air temperature normally associated with the heat
of compression.
It seals the leakage paths between the rotors and stator and also between the rotors
themselves.
It acts as a lubricating film between the rotors allowing one rotor to directly drive the
other, which is an idler.
After air/fluid mixture is discharged from compressor to the reservoir, fluid is separated
from the air in the separator tank. Compressed air then flows through the after-cooler for
moisture removal while the lubricant is being cooled by the fluid-cooler for re-injectio
General Information

2.3 COMPRESSOR LUBRICATION AND COOLING SYSTEM
The lubrication and cooling system consists of a reservoir, centrifugal fan, fan motor,
aluminum finned fluid-cooler and after-cooler, thermal valve & fluid filter. High pressure
forces the lubricant through a series of direction changes in the reservoir where it is
separated from the air. The fluid is then delivered to the thermal valve and fluid-cooler.
Cooled fluid will be filtered before being re-injected back into the compressor.
Ambient air is being forced through the cooler fins by the centrifugal fan, which cools the
fluid and compressed air in the cooler tubes. The after-cooler helps separate the water
content in the discharge air, and through the automatic condensate drain, the water will be
drained. This avoids water contamination problems downstream (in service lines). Cooler
fins must be kept clean at all times.
Fluid from reservoir circulates to the thermal valve. The thermal valve is fully closed when
the fluid temperature is below 70°C (158°F). Fluid (below 158°F) will bypass the thermal
valve and inject directly to the airend. As the discharge temperature rises above 80°C
(176°F), due to heat of compression, the thermal valve begins to open and fluid will be
circulated to the cooler.
General Information

2.4 COMPRESSOR DISCHARGE SYSTEM
Air/fluid mixture has been forced into reservoir after compression. The reservoir has two
basic functions:
The sight glass enables the operator to visually monitor the reservoir fluid level. Fluid is
added to the reservoir by removing the fluid filling cap after all system pressure is relieved.
The fluid level should remain at the top red lines on the sightglass. Fluid refill is required
once its level drops below the lower red line.
General Information

2.5 AIREND, INLETVALVE AND FILTRATION SYSTEM
The compressor inlet system consists of a Kerry air filter, Kerry inlet valve. & SKY airend.
The Kerry inlet valve controls the air intake volume. It is also acts as the check valve to
prevent the reverse pressure and rotation when compressor is shutting down.

Fluid Information
Sight Glass
Do not use different fluid. Using different fluid will void compressor’s warranty.
- 22 -
Installation
Compressor should be located on a flat surface in a clean, well-lit and well ventilated area.
The location must have sufficient access for maintenance equipment and lifting vehicle. Four
feet (4’) of clearance around the compressor is recommended for daily inspection and easy
access to all compressor components. The area must have sufficient lighting for technicians
to safely operate the compressor as well as perform maintenance work. The location should
be free from standing water.
The compressor’s base must be securely bolted to the floor with lag bolts. Rubber pad with 5
- 15mm thickness or pliable material should be placed under the bottom of the base if floor
surface is uneven or irregular. A stationary compressor will prevent accidents such as broken
piping or electrical connections. Do not over tighten the lag bolts because this may cause the
frame to twist or bind which could results in possible breakage of fluid coolers, piping and
the reservoir.
Brand new compressor has “Orange Color” shipping bracket installed under
airend assembly. Please remove the bracket after the unit is installed.
NOTICE!
Removal or paint over of safety labels will be a safety hazard. This could result in
personal injury or property damage. Warning signs and labels should be conspicuous
and on a bright legible surface. Do not remove any warning, caution or instructional
material attached with unit.
Ambient temperature should not exceed 40°C (104°F). High ambient temperatures
may result in high air temperature shutdown.
- 23 -
Installation
The compressor air inlet must be located in the opposite direction to other compressors or
heat generating equipment. The object is to avoid hot air being drawn into the system. Do
not block the exhaust air from cooler or fan. Hot exhaust air must be vented outside through
a duct to prevent high ambient room temperature. The compressor room must be properly
ventilated to avoid compressor high temperature shutdown.
Maintain clean & fresh air, dust free, metal particle free and chemical vapor
free in the compressor’s room. Housing the compressor within a poorly
ventilated enclosure will cause higher operating temperature.
All models are intended for indoor installation; however, it is possible, with certain
modifications, to accommodate some outdoor locations. Models with standard enclosure are
water-resistant but not water tight. Shelter is needed to protect the unit from rain, snow and
freezing temperatures. An optional weather hood or air grille could be installed to protect
compressor against blowing rain and snow as well as cabinet heater additions if ambient
temperature will be below 5°C (41 F).
- 24 -
Installation
Before installation, review the complete air systems layout, which includes compressor(s),
receiver tank, dryer(s), line filter(s), pipe size, water drain and isolator valves. Never join
pipes or fittings by soldering. Never use PVC pipe or non-genuine rubber hose in the air
system. Use flexible connections to prevent pipe load from being transmitted to the
compressor. Never use a different pipe size other than the manufacturer specification for the
compressor unit.
A service line shut off valve must be installed after the compressor air outlet connection with
a pressure relief valve installed to release compressed air to the atmosphere. For a single
compressor and air receiver tank, manual shut off valves are typically being installed. A
union connector must be installed after the ball valve (quarter turn, shut off valve) at the
compressed air outlet. This will allow unit isolation for maintenance.
The compressor after-cooler comes with an automatic condensate drain. The drain line
should be installed to remove the condensate during compressor operation.
A receiver tank should be installed if compressed air demands fluctuate. Service line piping
is recommended to be sized to match the compressor’s discharge connector. All piping &
fittings should be rated to withstand greater pressure than the discharge pressure. Isolation
valves & drain valves are installed to isolate the compressor when service is required. These
valves should have water drip legs with the drain direction facing downward to the floor.
Piping should all line up properly with an adequate loop radius or bend radius given for easy
installation and to prevent bending stress, flow restriction and damage due to thermal
expansion. Piping support brackets must be mounted independent of the compressor and
motor. This will avoid damage caused by vibration.
- 25 -
Installation
Pressure relief valves are sized to protect the system. Never change the pressure setting or
tamper with the valve. Only the valve manufacturer and their authorized representatives are
allowed to make such changes.
Pressure relief valves are used to protect system integrity in accordance with
safety standards. Failure to provide properly sized valves will result in death or
serious injury.
Pressure relief valves are installed prior to any potential blockage point such as shutoff
valves, heat exchangers and discharge silencers. Ideally, the valve should be threaded
directly into the pressure point it is sensing, not connected with tubing or pipe. Always direct
discharge from relief valves to a safe area away from personnel.
Inspect the fluid level when the compressor is in shut down mode. Fluid level is indicated on
the reservoir sight glass. The maximum fluid level is at the top red-mark. Add fluid until the
top red-mark is reached.
4.5 ELECTRICAL
Before installation, the electrical supply should be checked for adequate wire size and
capacity. User must comply with national & local electrical codes. The codes specify the
surrounding clearance requirement for the electrical panel. Wiring work should be
undertaken only by a qualified electrician in compliance with OSHA, national or local
electrical code. JN compressor provides wiring diagrams for user reference. Refer to the
electrical control schematic in the parts manual for wiring diagrams. Genuine fused
disconnect switch or circuit breaker should be purchased from the manufacturer. Any
unreasonable voltage imbalance (5%) between phases must be eliminated and low voltage
problems must be corrected to prevent excessive current draw. Air compressors must be
grounded in accordance with applicable codes, regulations and requirement.
- 26 -
Installation
All electrical supply cables must be adequately sized to prevent overheating due
to current draw.
Enclosure panels and drive grille must be fastened in place before starting the
compressor and never removed before lock out / tag out of the main power
supply.
A starter hole is provided for an incoming power connection. If a different location for the
starter hole is needed, the certified technician must make sure to keep control box clean after
the hole is created. The original hole must be capped if another hole is used. Inspect
incoming voltage to match the compressor’s specification. Inspect motor starter and
overload heater sizes. Check all electrical connections L1-L2-L3 for tightness and
cleanliness.
Motor rotation must be checked after the wiring has been installed. Operating the
compressor in incorrect rotation will result in severe damage to the compressor and warranty
coverage will be voided. Motor rotation can be viewed through the opening in the drive
grille. The drive motor end of the compressor is marked with an arrow noting the proper
rotation.
To inspect rotors rotation, pull out the “EMERGENCY STOP” button and press once,
quickly press the “START” and “STOP” button in sequence, allowing the motor to turn 2 or
3 revolutions. Observe the drive shaft for correct direction. If reverse rotation is observed,
disconnect the power supply, reverse power input leads at the motor starter. Recheck for
proper rotation.
- 27 -
Installation
Fan motor rotation should be inspected. JN compressors uses an axial fan for cooling. Fan
rotation is inspected through an arrow shaped observation hole above the fan motor. The fan
must rotate in the direction indicated by the arrow.
Always inspect fan rotation through the observation hole. Never assume the fan
rotation is correct based on the induced air flow across the coolers. A centrifugal
fan can pull the airflow across the coolers when rotating in either direction;
NOTICE! however, incorrect rotation will cause high discharge temperature.
- 28 -
Operation
Provisions should be made to have the instruction manual readily available to the
operator and maintenance personnel. If, for any reason, any parts of the manual
become illegible or if the manual is lost, have it replaced immediately. The
instruction manual should be read periodically to refresh one’s memory. This
may prevent a serious accident.
Before compressor start up, inspect fluid level in reservoir. After start up, observe the control
panel screen for operation status. Ensure the compressor is running at its optimum level.
Close the service valve to plant air distribution system. Allow pressure to build up within the
reservoir until compressor fully unloads. Press the stop button.
Always close the service valve when compressor is not being used. It prevents
back pressure from the service line and avoids leakage due to check valve failure.
NOTICE
Emergency shutdown. Press the emergency stop button or pull the circuit breaker
at the main power terminal.

Operation
5.6 Control Principle (Refer to the attached for the Electric schematic circuit)
(A)Individual Control
(1)Local Automatic control(ON/OFF mode: Beside Machine; Loading method:
Automatic)
① Press ‘I’ to start:(Y—△ Starting)
When the controller is powered on, it will perform a 3S self-checking. Press the ‘I’
button cannot start the machine until the self-checking is completed. The starting
process of the host will be as the following: KM3 is powered on, KM2 is Powered on
Y type Starting Time Delay finish(Y—△ converting time), KM3 loss power
(KM1 and KM3 interlocked),KM1 is powered on Motor runs in △ type and the
Starting is completed. the load magnetic Valves are without power during the whole
starting process to ensure the load free starting.
② Automatic Running Control:
When the motor is started to running in △ state and load the magnetic valve with
power applied after a certain period of delay. Then the air compressor will be applied
with air pressure to increase the pressure in the air tank. When the air pressure reaches
the value over the set unload pressure (unload pressure value), the loading magnetic
valve will loss power and the release magnetic valve is applied with power to run the
air compressor with load free. If in the specified time (load free running period) the
air pressure turns to be lower than the set load pressure (LOAD PRESSURE VALUE),
the load magnetic valve obtains power and the release magnetic valve losses power,
the air compressor will apply normal pressure to increase the pressure in the air tank.
If the pressure in the air tank is not drop down to the load pressure limit within the
empty free running time, the controller will automatically stop the running of the
motor to perform the automatic stop of machine for over time empty free running.
Only when the pressure drops to the load pressure limit, the motor could restart
according to the normal starting process and it runs repeatedly in this way. pressure,
the load magnetic valve will be applied with power and will not stop running anreturn
to the unload state until the air supply pressure becomes higher than the unload
pressure. When the unit is at the load state, press the button ‘S’ to unload. If the
pressure is higher than the load pressure, the load magnetic valve will loss the power
and return to the load state till the air supply pressure becomes lower than the load
pressure. If the pressure is lower than the load pressure, the unload function is disable.
- 44 -
Operation
③ Normal Stopping:
Press the button ‘O’, the load magnetic valve will loss power and the unload
magnetic will be applied with power, after a while of delay (stop delay), the motor
contactor will loss power, the host and fan will stop running, after the restarting delay
completed, the unload magnetic will loss power. Only pressing the button ‘I’ could
restart the motor.
④ Frequency starting prevent control
The motor can not be started immediately unless after a while of time delay after
stopped by pressing ‘O’ button or stopped due to failure. Whenever the situation is,
this controller will display the remaining count down of the time delaying (such as
90s). The motor can only be started when the time display is 0.
- 45 -
Operation
(2) Remote Automatic Control (ON/OFF mode: Remote; Load mode: Automatic)
The remote automatic control is almost the same as the local automatic control; the
only difference is that the start and stop of the unit is controlled by remote control.
(3) Local Manual Control (On/Off mode: beside machine; Load mode: Manual)
The Starting and stopping control is the same as the automatic control, the only
difference is that when the starting procedure finished in this mode, the machine is at
the load free state and will be loaded by pressing the button ‘S’. When the air supply
pressure is higher than the unload pressure, the unit will load automatically, if the
button ‘S’ is not pressed to load, the unit will be running at the load free state till load
free stop. During the unload process, press the button ‘S’ to load and during the
process of loading, press the button ‘S’ to unload
(4) Remote Manual Control (On/Off Mode: Remote; Load mode: Manual)
The remote automatic control is almost the same as the local manual control; the only
difference is that the start and stop of the unit is controlled by remote control.
(2) Set the controller communication to ‘BLOCKING’ could perform the network control
between the controllers but the host must be 1# controller.
When the air Exhausting temperature is higher than the fan starting temperature, the Fan
motor will run; when the air exhausting temperature is lower than the fan stop temperature,
the fan motor will stop running. If there is no fan or the fan is not necessary to be protected,
set the starting temperature of the fan to ‘120℃’ and the stop temperature to be ‘70℃’.
- 46 -
Operation
When there is any electronic failure or high air temperature failures occurred during the
running process, the controller would stop the motor immediately. The motor can only be
restarted after the failures are cleared. Any emergency situation occurred, please press down
the emergency stop button to cut off the power supply of the controller and contactor power.
- 47 -
Operation
MAM—KY12S air compressor controller can perform the short-circuit protection, rotor lock
protection, overload protection, Phase Lacking Protection and Unbalance Protections to the
motor.
When the air exhaust temperature is higher than the set limited unload temperature, the
controller will alarm and stop the machine. Local Failure display ‘Air Exhaust High
Temperature’.
- 48 -
Operation
When the phase sequence of the power connected to the air compressor is not conforming to
the set of the controller, the local failure displays ‘Wrong phase sequence’ and as a result the
controller can not start the motor. It is needed to check and alternate any two of the phase
sequence and investigate the motor rotation direction.
④ Over Pressure protection
When the pressure of the air exhaust is higher than the set stop pressure of the controller, the
controller will alarm and stop the machine, the local failure displays ‘Pressure too high’.
When the cable of the pressure sensor or the temperature sensor is broken, the controller will
alarm and stop the machine and the local failure displays ‘** sensor failure’.

groups of 3 phase current input (Match with CT)
6. Phase sequence Protection: When the wrong phase sequence is detected by the protector,
it activate for the time≤2s.
7. Motor Protection: This control unit has the following 5 basic protection functions to the
motor and fan.
① Rotor Lock protection: After the starting of the motor, if the working current reaches 4
or 8 times of the set value, the protection activates. The activate time is less than 0.2s.
② Short-Circuit Protection: if the detected current reaches 8 times or more above the set
value, the protection activates, the activate time is less than 0.2s.
③ Lack phase protection: Any of the phase lack, the protection activates and the activate
time is the setting time.

6.5 Control Principle (Refer to the attached for the Electric schematic circuit)
(A)Individual Control
(1) Remote Automatic Control (ON/OFF mode: Remote; Load mode: Automatic)
The remote automatic control is almost the same as the local automatic control; the
only difference is that the start and stop of the unit is controlled by remote control.
(2) Local Manual Control (On/Off mode: beside machine; Load mode: Manual)
The Starting and stopping control is the same as the automatic control, the only
difference is that when the starting procedure finished in this mode, the machine is at
the load free state and will be loaded by pressing the button ‘ ’. When the air
supply pressure is higher than the unload pressure, the unit will load automatically, if
the button ‘ ’ is not pressed to load, the unit will be running at the load free state
till load free stop. During the unload process, press the button ‘ ’ to load and
(2) Set the controller communication to ‘BLOCKING’ could perform the network control
between the controllers but the host must be 1# controller.

(2)Main controller tips:
MAM—KY12S air compressor controller can perform the short-circuit protection, rotor lock
protection, overload protection, Phase Lacking Protection and Unbalance Protections to the
motor.
Electronic
Failure Display Possible Causes

Operation
When the phase sequence of the power connected to the air compressor is not conforming to
the set of the controller, the local failure displays ‘Wrong phase sequence’ and as a result the
controller can not start the motor. It is needed to check and alternate any two of the phase
sequence and investigate the motor rotation direction.
⑤ Over Pressure protection
When the pressure of the air exhaust is higher than the set stop pressure of the controller, the
controller will alarm and stop the machine, the local failure displays ‘Pressure too high’.
When the cable of the pressure sensor or the temperature sensor is broken, the controller will
alarm and stop the machine and the local failure displays ‘** sensor failure’.
⑥ Interlock Protection
The Host is running and the air exhaust temperature reaches the Fan starting temperature but
the Fan does not run, the controller alarm, the local failure displays ‘ Fan is stopped’
Operation

The failures caused by the peripheral equipments of the controller could be investigated by
queering from the local failure record or the history failure record to find out the failure
causes and solves the relative problem. The detailed method is as the following:
Press the button ‘’ or ‘’ to move the black cursor over the menu ‘ Run Parameter’ and
then press the confirm button ‘’ to popup the submenu as the following:

7.1 FLUID CHANGE
JN series compressors utilize a pressurized fluid drain. Use the following procedure to drain
and replace the compressor fluid.
i.Press the emergency stop button and remove the right side cabinet panel (if
applicable).
ii.Check the pressure gauge reading on reservoir and wait until reservoir pressure
drops to approximately 0.05Mpa (7psig).
iii.Close the 1/4 turn valve on the blow-down valve.
iv.Remove the drain plug and attach the 1/4 NPT barb fitting and drain tube (supplied
with the unit) to the drain on the oil/air separator tank.
v.Slowly open the 1/4 turn valve on the drain of oil/air separator tank. The pressure
remaining in the tank will force the fluid out. When air begins to escape from the
tank, close the valve.
vi.After closing the valve, remove the tubing and barb fitting and reinstall the drain
plug.
vii.Remove the plug from the fluid fill port and refill the reservoir with the appropriate
amount of Kerry 10# fluid.
viii.Before starting the compressor opens the 1/4 turn valve on the blow-down valve to
ensure the blow-down valve functions correctly.
The 1/4 turn valve on the blow-down valve MUST be open for the unit to
blow down during regular unit operation.
NOTICE
Servicing
Intake filtration equipment supplied from the factory may not be adequate
for extremely dirty applications or some forms of dust or vapors. It is the
- 70 -
NOTICE customer’s responsibility to provide adequate filtration for those
conditions. Warranty will be voided if inadequate filtration causes a failure.
As indicated by the fluid filter maintenance indicator when the fluid is at normal
operating temperature
Every 2,000 hours
Every fluid change
The fluid filter maintenance indicator may read high upon start up on cool
mornings due to sluggish fluid creating higher than normal differential
NOTICE pressures. Monitor indicator after the fluid warms up.
