BReATHInG AIR PReCAUTIOn
Ingersoll Rand air compressors are not designed,
intended or approved for breathing air. Compressed
air should not be used for breathing air applications
unless treated in accordance with all applicable codes
and regulations.

GeneRAL InFORMATIOn

Ensure that the operator reads and understands the
decals and consults the manuals before maintenance or
operation.
Ensure that the Operation and Maintenance manual is
not removed permanently from the machine.
Ensure that maintenance personnel are adequately
trained, competent and have read the Maintenance
Manuals.
Do not point air nozzles or sprayers toward anyone.
Compressed air and electricity can be dangerous.
Before undertaking any work on the compressor, ensure
that the electrical supply has been isolated and the
compressor has been relieved of all pressure.
Wear eye protection when operating or servicing
compressor.
All persons positioned near to operating machinery
should be equipped with hearing protection and given
instructions on its use in accordance with workplace
safety legislation.
Make sure that all protective covers are in place and that
the canopy/doors are closed during operation.
The specification of this machine is such that the
machine is not suitable for use in flammable gas risk
areas.
Installation of this compressor must be in accordance with
recognised electrical codes and any local Health and Safety
Codes.

The use of plastic bowls on line filters can be hazardous.
Their safety can be affected by either synthetic
lubricants, or the additives used in mineral oils.
Ingersoll Rand recommends that only filters with metal
bowls should be used on a pressurised system.

COMPReSSeD AIR

Compressed air can be dangerous if incorrectly
handled. Before doing any work on the unit, ensure
that all pressure is vented from the system and that the
machine cannot be started accidentally.
wARnInG
Imposing a normal or emergency stop on
the compressor will only relieve pressure
upstream of the minimum pressure valve
on top of the separator tank. If maintenance
work is required downstream of this
valve, ensure that all pressure is relieved
at the process vent point external to the
compressor.
Ensure that the machine is operating at the rated
pressure and that the rated pressure is known to all
relevant personnel.
All air pressure equipment installed in or connected to
the machine must have safe working pressure ratings of
at least the machine rated pressure.
If more than one compressor is connected to one
common downstream plant, effective isolation valves
must be fitted and controlled by work procedures, so
that one machine cannot accidentally be pressurised /
over pressurised by another.
Compressed air must not be used for a direct feed to any
form of breathing apparatus or mask.
The discharged air contains a very small percentage
of compressor lubricant and care should be taken to
ensure that downstream equipment is compatible.
If the discharged air is to be ultimately released into a
confined space, adequate ventilation must be provided.
When using compressed air always use appropriate
personal protective equipment.
All pressure containing parts, especially flexible hoses
and their couplings, must be regularly inspected, be free
from defects and be replaced according to the Manual
instructions.
Compressed air can be dangerous if incorrectly
handled. Before doing any work on the unit, ensure
that all pressure is vented from the system and that the
machine cannot be started accidentally.
Avoid bodily contact with compressed air.
All safety valves located in the separator tank must be
checked periodically for correct operation.
