ATTENTION! Compressor operation is possible within the operating limits.

F

These can be found in Bock compressor selection tool (VAP)

under vap.bock.de. Observe the information given there.

E

– Permissible ambient temperature (-20°C) – (+60°C)

– Max. permissible discharge end temperature: 140°C – Max. permissible switching frequency: 8x /h

– A minimum running time of 3 min. steady-state condition (continuous operation) must be achieved.

For operation with supplementary cooling: – Use only oils with high thermal stability. – Avoid continuous operation near the threshold.
For operation with frequency converter: – The potential control range of the compressor is 25-70 Hz. – Max. permissible current consumption must not be exceeded.
At max. rotation speed therefore, the application limit can be reduced. – Use a thermal protection thermostat. – Do not operate an additional capacity controller. – Oil return at low frequency must be guaranteed.

3 |Areas of application

ATTENTION!

For operation with capacity regulator: – Continuous operation, when the capacity regulator is activated,
is not permissible and can cause damage to the compressor. – The suction gas superheat temperature may need to be reduced
or set individually when operating near to the threshold. – When the capacity regulator is activated, the gas velocity in
the system can not under certain circumstances ensure that sufficient oil is transported back to the compressor.
When operating in the vacuum range, there is a danger of air entering on the suction side. This can cause chemical reactions, a pressure rise in the condenser and an elevated compressed-gas temperature. Prevent the ingress of air at all costs!

Max. permissible operating pressure (LP/HP)1): 19/28 bar

4.4 Pipe connections
Fig. 11: Stepped internal diameters

The discharge and suction line valves have stepped internal

diameters so that pipes with standard millimetre and inch

dimensions can be used. The depth of pipe insertion will

D

depend on the dimension.

The connection diameters of the shut-off valves are rated for GB

maximum compressor output. The required pipe cross-section must be

F

matched to the output. The same applies for non-return valves. E

ATTENTION! Overheating can damage the valve.
Remove the pipe supports from the valve for soldering. Solder them with protective gas to prevent oxidation products (scale).

4.5 Pipes
Pipes and system components must be clean and dry inside and free of scale, swarf and layers of rust and phosphate. Only use air-tight parts. Lay pipes correctly. Suitable vibration compensators must be provided to prevent pipes being cracked and broken by severe vibrations. Ensure a proper oil return. Keep pressure losses to an absolute minimum. 4.6 Laying suction and pressure lines
ATTENTION Improperly installed pipes can cause cracks and tears, the result being a loss of refrigerant.

INFO

Proper layout of the suction and discharge lines directly after

the compressor is integral to the system’s smooth running and

vibration behaviour.

A rule of thumb: Always lay the first pipe section starting from the shut-off valve downwards and parallel to the drive shaft.

After activating the spindle, generally fit the spindle protection cap again and tighten with 14-16 Nm. This serves as a second sealing feature during operation.
4.9 Suction pipe filter and filter drier
For systems with long pipes and higher degree of contamination, a filter on the suction-side is recommended. The filter has to be be renewed depending on the degree of contamination (reduced pressure loss). Moisture in the refrigeration circuit can lead to crystal and hydrate formation. For this reason, we recommend using a filter drier and a sight glass with a moisture indicator.

DANGER! High voltage! Risk of electric shock! Only carry out work when the electrical system is disconnected from the power supply!
ATTENTION! When attaching accessories with an electrical cable, a minimum bending radius of 3 x the cable diameter must be maintained for laying the cable.

INFO!

Connect the compressor motor in accordance with the circuit diagram (see inside of terminal box).
Use suitable cable entry point of the correct protection type (see name plate) for routing cables into the terminal box.
Insert the strain reliefs and prevent chafe marks on the cables. Compare the voltage and frequency values with the data for the mains
power supply. Only connect the motor if these values are the same.

5.1 Information for contactor and motor contactor selection

All protection devices and switching or monitoring units must be fitted in accordance with the local

safety regulations and established specifications (e.g. VDE) as well as with the manufacturer’s infor-

mation. Motor protection switches are required! Motor contactors, feed lines, fuses and motor

D

protection switches must be rated on the basis of the maximum working current (see name plate).

GB For motor protection use a current-dependent and time-delayed overload protection device for moni-

toring all three phases. Set the overload protection device so that it must be actuated within 2 hours,

F

if there is 1.2 times the max. working current.

5.4 Electronic trigger unit INT69 G
The compressor motor is fitted with cold conductor temperature sensors (PTC) connected to the electronic trigger unit INT69 G in the terminal box. In case of excess temperature in the motor winding, the INT69 G deactivates the motor contactor. Once cooled, it can be restarted only if the electronic lock of the output relay (terminals B1+B2) is released by interrupting the supply voltage.
The hot gas side of the compressor can also be protected against overtemperature using thermal protection thermostats (accessory).
The unit trips when an overload or inadmissible operating conditions occur. Find and remedy the cause.

INFO

The relay switching output is executed as a floating changeover

contact. This electrical circuit operates according to the quiescent

current principle, i.e. the relay drops into a the idle position and

deactivates the motor contactor even in case of a sensor break or

open circuit.

6| Commissioning

6.1 Preparations for start-up

INFO!

To protect the compressor against inadmissible operating conditions, high pressure and low pressure pressostats are mandatory on the installation side.

The compressor has undergone trials in the factory and all functions have been tested. There are therefore no special running-in instructions. Check the compressor for transport damage!

6.2 Pressure strength test

The compressor has been tested in the factory for pressure integrity. If however the entire system is to be subjected to a pressure integrity test, this should be carried out in accordance with EN 378-2 or a corresponding safety standard without the inclusion of the compressor.

6.3 Leak test

DANGER! Risk of bursting!

The compressor must only be pressurised using nitrogen (N2). Never pressurise with oxygen or other gases!

D

The maximum permissible overpressure of the compressor must not

be exceeded at any time during the testing process (see name plate

GB

data)! Do not mix any refrigerant with the nitrogen as this could

F

cause the ignition limit to shift into the critical range.

E

Carry out the leak test on the refrigerating plant in accordance with EN 378-2 or a corresponding

safety standard, while always observing the maximum permissible overpressure for the compressor.

6.4 Evacuation
ATTENTION! Do not start the compressor if it is under vacuum.Do not apply any voltage even for test purposes (may be operated only with refrigerant). Under vacuum, the spark-over and creepage current distances of the terminal board connection bolts shorten; this can lead to winding and terminal board damage.

First evacuate the system and then includethe compressor in the evacuation process. Relieve the compressor pressure. Open the suction and discharge line valves. Evacuate the suction and high pressure sides using the vacuum pump. At the end of the evacuation process, the vacuum should be < 1.5 mbar when the pump is switched off. Repeat the process as often as is required.

6 |Commissioning

6.5 Refrigerant charge

CAUTION! Wear personal protective clothing such as goggles and protective gloves!

Make sure that the suction and discharge line valves are open.
With the compressor switched off, add the liquid refrigerant directly to the condenser or receiver, breaking the vacuum. If the refrigerant needs topping up after starting the compressor, it can be topped up in vapour form on the suction side, or, taking suitable precautions, also in liquid form at the inlet to the evaporator.

INFO!

Avoid overfilling the system with refrigerant!
To avoid shifts in concentration, zeotropic refrigerant blends (e.g. R407C) must always only be filled into the refrigerating plant in liquid form.
Do not pour liquid coolant through the suction line valve on
the compressor.
It is not permissible to mix additives with the oil and refrigerant.

6.6 Start-up

D

WARNING! Ensure that both shut-off valves are open before starting

GB

the compressor!

F

Check that the safety and protection devices (pressure switch, motor protection, electrical

E

contact protection measures, etc.) are all functioning properly.

Switch on the compressor and allow to run for a minimum of 10 min. Check the oil level by: The oil must be visible in the sightglass.

ATTENTION! If larger quantities of oil have to be topped up, there is a risk of oil hammer effects. If this is the case check the oil return!

6.7 Avoiding liquid sluggings

ATTENTION! Slugging can damage the compressor and cause coolant to leak.

To prevent slugging:
The complete refrigeration system must be properly designed.
All components must be compatibly rated with each other with regard to output (particularly the evaporator and expansion valves).
Suction gas superheat at the compressor input should be min. 7 – 10 K. (check the setting of the expansion valve). The system must reach a state of equilibrium. Particularly in critical systems (e.g. several evaporator points), measures are recommended such as replacement of liquid traps, solenoid valve in the liquid line, etc.
There should be no movement of refrigerant in the compressor while the system is at a
standstill.

7 |Maintenance

7.1 Preparation
WARNING! Before starting any work on the compressor: Switch off the compressor and secure it to prevent a restart. Relieve compressor of system pressure. Prevent air from infiltrating the system!
After maintenance has been performed: Connect safety switch. Evacuate compressor. Release switch lock.

7.2 Work to be carried out

Oil change: In principle, an oil change is not mandatory if the system is correctly manufactured
and operated.
However, based on decades of experience we recommend that the following oil change/service
work is carried out: – First oil change during the first maintenance system. – Then after every 10,000 ­ 12,000 operating hours, though no more than
3 years, cleaning oil and suction filter at the same time.

D

Annual checks: Oil level, tightness, running noise, pressures, temperatures, function of auxiliary

devices such as a oil sump heater, pressure switch.

7.4 Lubricants / oil

The oil type filled as standard in the factory is marked on the name plate, and this should always be used, even in the case of maintenance units. Alternative oil types can vary significantly in quality due to additives or inferior raw materials by the manufacturer. Validation within the compressors entire operating limits can not be guaranteed, if such alternative oil types are used. It is for this reason, that we only recommend the use of oil from Bock! Bock assumes no liability for any damage arising from alternative oil types.

7.5 Decommissioning Close the shut-off valve on the compressor. Drain the refrigerant (it must not be discharged directly into the environment) and dispose of it according to the regulations. When the compressor is depressurised, undo the fastening screws of the shut-off valves. Remove the compressor using an appropriate hoist. Dispose of the oil inside in accordance with the valid national regulations.
