General Information

Optional Equipment Compatibility
While VMAC strives to design systems compatible with optional OEM equipment (such as running boards), it is impractical to develop systems that accommodate every OEM and aftermarket option or add-on. Whenever possible, VMAC endeavors to advise of compatibility issues in the “Additional Application Information” section of the manual. Even when specific optional equipment is determined by VMAC to be incompatible, it does not preclude the vehicle upfitter or end user from modifying the optional equipment to make it compatible with the installed VMAC system. VMAC does not warranty or accept responsibility or liability for the fitment, function or safety of any products modified in any way not expressly outlined in the installation manual.
Before Starting
Note and label all parts that are removed from the vehicle as many of the OEM parts will be reused during the installation of the VMAC system.
Read this manual prior to beginning the installation to ensure familiarity with the components and how they will fit on the vehicle. Identify any variations from the application list such as vehicle model, engines, or optional equipment (e.g., dual alternator, active steering assist, etc.).
Open the package, unpack the components and identify them using the Illustrated Parts List (IPL) included in the Fastener Pack.
Hose Information
Depending on other installed equipment, it might be necessary to move the air/oil separation tank from its intended location. The hoses used in VMAC compressor systems have a specific inner liner that is compatible with VMAC compressor oil. Use of hoses other than those supplied or recommended by VMAC may cause compressor damage and may void your warranty. Please contact VMAC for replacement hoses and further information.
Ordering Parts
To order parts, contact a VMAC dealer. The dealer will ask for the VMAC serial number, part number, description and quantity. Locate the nearest dealer online at www.vmacair.com/dealer-locator or call 1-877-912-6605.

System Identification, Warranty Registration and Warning Labels
Preparation for installation is very important. Missing a step or an item can cause problems in the installation or damage to components.
Check off each item as it is completed so that no steps are
missed.
Review the contents of the system using the illustrated parts list to ensure all
components are present and in the correct quantity. If any components are missing, have the system ID ready and call VMAC Technical Support at 888-241-2289.
The VMAC warranty form must be completed and returned to VMAC at the time of installation for any subsequent warranty claim to be considered valid.
Complete the warranty form. The VMAC warranty form is located at the back of
this manual, as well as online at: www.vmacair.com/warranty

Installing the Air Oil Separator Tank (AOST)
Dependent upon other installed equipment, it may be necessary to move the AOST from its intended location. The hoses used in VMAC compressor systems have a specific inner liner that is compatible with VMAC compressor oil. Use of hoses other than those supplied or recommended by VMAC may cause compressor damage and may void the warranty.
The AOST must be level for proper air/oil separation, and to ensure that the oil level will display accurately in the sight glass.
Apply Loctite 242 (blue) to all fasteners.
Installing the AOST
The AOST will mount to the passenger side frame rail behind the body mount (Figure 41).

Hose Requirements
Only attempt to shorten the supplied hose if there is access to the appropriate equipment. Do not attempt to cut the hose and splice it using hose clamps.
VMAC Compressor oil will degrade rubber lined hoses, use only hoses with an AQP elastomer type liner. Contact VMAC Technical Support at 1-888-241-2289 for further information.
The PTFE tubes and AQP elastomer lined hoses are specifically designed to work with VMAC compressor oil and at compressor operating temperatures.
Based on the desired location of the AOST, the hose lengths provided with this system may not be ideal. VMAC suggests first trying to adjust the AOST within its mounts to take up any excess slack in the hoses. If this is not effective, the hoses can be shortened or replaced as necessary, or hose extenders can be used.
VMAC recommends shortening these hoses as a preferred alternative to coiling up and securing the excess. Shorter hose length will maximize system performance.
Avoid using 90° fittings wherever possible as they cause flow restrictions and negatively impact performance.
The following hoses are included with this compressor kit:
· 3/4 in × 76 in (oil fill hose). · 3/4 in × 89 in (discharge hose). · 3/4 in × 20 in (discharge hose extension for extended cab). · 3/4 in × 33 in (discharge hose extension for crew cab). · 1/2 in × 68 in (oil return hose). · 1/2 in × 99 in (oil supply hose). · 1/4 in (PTFE tube) × 47 in. · 1/4 in (black air brake tube) × 62 in. · 3/16 in (PTFE tube) × 87 in.
If longer hoses are required:
To order parts, contact a VMAC dealer. The dealer will ask for the VMAC serial number, part number, description and quantity. See page 6 for ordering information.
· Eaton Aeroquip hoses with an “AQP” type inner liner are required. · OTC fittings are required for the VMAC supplied hose. · Push-lock fittings are suitable if FC332 hose is used. · If Push-lock fittings are being used, do not use hose clamps as they will
damage the hose and cause leaks.

Connecting the Hoses

When routing hoses, ensure cap plugs are installed so that contaminants do not get in the line. Take care when routing hoses, as a hose failure may damage the compressor and/or cause injury.
All hoses, tubes and wires that are installed, rerouted or shifted during the installation must be secured so that they do not contact any hot, sharp or moving parts. Use rubber coated P-clips wherever possible. Follow the routing suggestions in this manual and cover all hoses with plastic loom.

Ensure there is sufficient slack in the hose routing to allow for normal engine movement.

PTFE Tubing, Loom, and Push-To-Connect Fittings
PTFE tubing should only be cut using proper tubing cutters. Side cutters, utility
knives, etc. will deform the tube, preventing a proper seal (or leave sharp edges which cut the internal O-ring).
When applying loom to the PTFE tube, leave approximately 1 in between the
loom and the fitting.
Ensure the tube is clean, cut at 90° and that there are not sharp edges. Lubricate the tube and firmly push it into the fitting so that the tube fully seats
in the fitting.
Slide the collet out, away from the body of the fitting to lock the tubing in place. Ensure the tube does not have any “play” to prevent the O-ring from wearing.

Cut the tube squarely, using only proper tubing cutters as side cutters
will deform the tube.

Slide the collet out once the tube is fully inserted

Installing the Air Intake
Locate a suitable location to mount the air filter body and identify the routing
for the flexible hose. This location should be:
· Away from heat sources, pinch points, moving components or components that
might have to be removed for vehicle maintenance.
· Higher than the inlet control valve (where possible). · Where cool air will enter the filter (high temperature air reduces compressor
performance).
· Away from water, exhaust, flammable or explosive gases, fuel tank breathers,
fuel lines, fuel tanks or propane lines.
· Where holes drilled in the vehicle (or equipment panels) do not compromise
safety or weather protection.
· In a position where there is enough room to service the air cleaner. · Where the air filter dust ejector (short spigot with a split rubber boot) points
downward and where ejected dust will not build up or compromise any other equipment (Figure 69).

Adding Oil to the System
The VMAC supplied and approved compressor oil must be used in this system. Failure to use this special oil will result in damage to the compressor and will void warranty. Do not overfill the system. Overfilling the system with oil can flood the sight glass window and make the system appear empty.
Lower the vehicle from the axle stands. Ensure the vehicle is parked on level ground. Remove the oil filter from the AOST and discard the cardboard warning tag. Apply a light film of compressor oil to the filter gasket and thread the filter onto
the AOST until the gasket makes contact. Tighten the filter an additional 3/4 to 1 turn after the gasket contacts the base.
Remove the plug from the oil-fill hose located in the engine bay on the
passenger side of the radiator (Figure 72).
Oil fill plug

Figure 72 — Oil fill hose location
Using a funnel, fill the AOST with the supplied oil. When dry, the system will
take approximately 5 L (5.2 qt) of oil.
Allow a few minutes for the oil to drain into the AOST. Check the level at
the sight glass at the front of the AOST. Continue adding oil until the level is correct.
Replace the oil fill cap and tighten.

Installing the Control Components
Best Practices
· To confirm a good ground, use an ohm meter to measure the resistance
between the ground point and the negative battery terminal. Resistance should be less than 1 .
· Route all wires to ensure they will not contact hot, sharp or moving parts
(including the park brake mechanism, steering column, and pedals).
· Before drilling any holes ensure there are no OEM wires, hoses, or
components that may be damaged.
· Do not use a test light to probe for power on vehicle circuits, the increased
current draw of the test light may damage components.
· VMAC recommends using only sealed crimp and solder butt connectors for
all electrical connections.
· To ensure a durable connection, use only good quality crimping tools. · Apply loom to all wiring:
Use high temperature loom in areas where high temperatures may be expected.
Use spiral loom in areas with high vibration.
In-line Butt Splice Connections
· Cut the wire approximately 2 in from the connector. · Strip approximately 3/8 in from the end of both sides of the cut wire, as well as
from the end of the wire being spliced in-line.
· Twist the wire to be spliced in-line, together with the “live” side of the wire (not
the wire attached to the connector).
· Slide the butt connector onto the twisted wires and crimp it. · Insert the “connector side” of the wire into butt connector and crimp it. · Lightly tug the wires to ensure they are properly crimped. · Using a heat gun, carefully apply heat to the butt connectors to seal the
connection.
Tying into OEM connectors
Some OEM connectors may have locking tabs that must be disengaged prior to inserting a crimped connector.

Upfitter Vehicle Controls
It is the responsibility of the installer or upfitter to ensure that third party vehicle control systems are not able to affect engine speed while the PTO system is in use. Any change to engine speed while the PTO system is activated could cause component damage which could result in injury or death.
All third party vehicle control systems intended to activate the PTO system must do so via the VMAC Control Box. Refer to the electrical schematic on page 51 or page 52.
This section is intended as a general guideline. Refer to the third party vehicle control manufacturer’s documentation for specific installation instructions.
The following steps are only applicable to vehicles equipped with third party vehicle control systems. On vehicles with additional control systems (such as crane remotes), the DTM70 can be activated/deactivated remotely much like a standard PTO using these controls. In order to activate the PTO and VMAC Control Box with third party vehicle controls (e.g. crane remote):
Connect the purple wire from the VMAC Control Box to the PTO activation
circuit on the third party vehicle controls. The VMAC Control Box requires a +12 V DC latching input.

Once a check valve is installed, pressure in the air receiver tank will not be relieved when the compressor system blows down. This is normal operation. Prior to performing any service work on the system, discharge any stored air in the air receiver tank.
If an air receiver tank will be used with this system, the following installation procedure must be used to prevent damage to the system.
The VMAC compressor system will automatically depressurize when it is shutdown, therefore the hose from the VMAC AOST to the air receiver tank must have a check valve installed; this prevents blow back and moisture from the receiver tank entering the AOST
While the air receiver tank can be installed at any height in relation to the AOST, the discharge hose running from the AOST must be installed as high as possible on the air receiver tank to prevent problems with condensation that may have accumulated in the receiver tank (Figure 84).
Drain the condensed water from the receiver tank daily.
Install the line to the receiver tank as high as possible

Recommended Accessories

While the compressor system will function without the following accessories, VMAC strongly recommends their use for optimal performance.
See the “Accessory Product” section of this manual on page 70 for a list of products available for purchase through VMAC.
Receiver Tank
An air receiver tank provides a buffer as it gives the compressor time to react by increasing the engine speed and producing air before the tool stalls. It also has the advantage of lowering the duty cycle of the compressor system.
Pressure Gauge
While not critical to system performance, a pressure gauge is important for fine tuning the system and simplifies any potential troubleshooting. Install a 200 psi pressure gauge downstream of the air discharge valve.
Pressure Regulator and/or Lubricator or FRL
The compressor can produce air pressures up to approximately 175 psi (1206 kPa). It is the responsibility of the user to know the pressure and air flow requirements of the tools powered by the air compressor system.
An appropriate air pressure regulator and lubricator can be installed downstream of the air discharge valve. Failure to regulate the air pressure may cause damage to the tool.

Testing the Installation

Safety Test
Ensure the following has been completed:
Place the automatic transmission in “PARK” and apply the park brake. Turn the
ignition “ON” but do not start the engine.
Check the control box to see if it is illuminated. If there is no display, there is no
power to the control box.
Press the “ON” button. The green LED should come on.
On systems equipped with VMAC’s Digital Throttle Control, the “PRK BRAKE” LED will remain illuminated at all times, regardless of park brake position.
Release the park brake. The green LED on the display box should flash and the
display will flash “PARK BRAKE”. Apply the park brake again and press the “ON” button. The green LED should come on.
Press the “OFF” button. Turn the ignition “OFF”.
The engine must be running to complete the final steps in the safety test. This will be done after the pre-start checks have been completed.
Place the vehicle in a safe operating position and adequately block the wheels. Ensure that there are no people around the vehicle before beginning the test
Before Starting the Engine Checklist
Ensure the following has been completed:
Verify that the compressor oil level at the AOST sight glass is correct. Verify that the vehicle coolant level is correct. Perform a final inspection of the installation to ensure everything has been
completed.
Check all wiring for security and protection. Ensure nothing is touching the
compressor body.
Install the VMAC Air Test Tool (P/N: A700052) with the 70 cfm (0.190 in) orifice
installed and the ball valve closed.
Ensure all of the compressor outlets are closed. Ensure the parking brake is engaged and the transmission is in “PARK”. Start the engine.
After Starting the Engine Checklist
Check for any leaks. Close and latch the hood. Allow the vehicle to reach operating temperature. Turn on the compressor.

Analog Throttle Control
When the VMAC system is first engaged, the engine speed should increase to
between 1,600 rpm and 2,000 rpm, then decrease to between 1,000 rpm and 1,100 rpm.
Digital Throttle Control
The VMAC digital throttle is a “slow ramp” throttle. Each time the system is powered on, it will quickly increase engine speed to 1,500 rpm; then increase to maximum VMAC rpm over 8 seconds (provided the system has not reached full system pressure before maximum VMAC rpm is reached).
After the initial slow ramp, the throttle will respond normally to air demand
When the VMAC system is first engaged, the engine speed should increase to
1,500 rpm and then drop down to VMAC base idle (approximately 1,000 rpm) once system pressure is reached.
With the system running, check for:
Coolant leaks. Compressor oil leaks. Allow the compressor to run until the system reaches full system pressure. Engine speed should reduce to between 900 rpm to 1,100 rpm. Turn off the compressor. Shut down the engine. Check the compressor oil level after the engine has been shut down and the oil
level has had time to stabilize.
Ensure any stored air is drained from the system prior to adding oil.
Add oil as necessary to bring the level to the “FULL” line in the sight glass and
check for leaks.
Start the engine. Turn on the compressor and allow it to build to full system pressure.
Analog Throttle Control:
With the brake pedal firmly depressed, shift the truck into “REVERSE”:
The engine speed reduces to OEM base idle (Approximately 650 rpm). The green LED on the control box remains illuminated. *The orange PTO indicator remains illuminated. Repeat these steps in all gear selector positions to ensure the engine speed
does not increase unless the gear selector is in “PARK” or “NEUTRAL”

Digital Throttle Control

With the brake pedal firmly depressed, shift the truck into “REVERSE”:
The engine speed reduces to OEM base idle (Approximately 650 rpm). The green LED on the control box remains illuminated. The orange PTO indicator remains illuminated. The “STATUS” and “PRNDL” LED’s on the digital throttle control will turn off
and engine speed will reduce to base idle.
Shift the vehicle back into “PARK”. Cycle the compressor off, then on again to reset the safety parameters. Repeat these steps in all gear selector positions to ensure the engine speed
does not increase unless the gear selector is in “PARK” or “NEUTRAL”.
Allow the compressor to run until the system reaches full system pressure. Confirm all air valves are closed and the system has no air leaks. Turn off the compressor. Ensure any stored air is drained from the system.
Final Testing
Ensure the following has been completed:
Operate the system with an air tool (or the VMAC Air Test Tool with the
appropriate orifice installed) for at least 1/2 hour (1 hour preferred).
Road test the vehicle for approximately 14 miles (20 km). Observe the DTM operation to ensure that nothing is rubbing or contacting hot
components.
Check all components, connections and fasteners once the engine is turned off
and the system has cooled.
Check the coolant level after the engine has been operated. Check the compressor oil level after the engine has been shut down and the oil
level has had time to stabilize.

Performance Testing and System Adjustments

Performance Testing and System Adjustment
System operation can be tested using the tools that will be operated by the system or by using the VMAC Test Tool (A700052) with the 70 cfm (0.190 in) orifice in the outlet to simulate tool use (Figure 85).

Figure 85 — A700052 VMAC Air Test Tool
Disconnect all downstream equipment (hose reels, etc.) and connect the test tool directly to the discharge fitting on the AOST.
Ensure there are no leaks in the test tool. The system may not idle down if there are leaks in the lines or fittings.
Install the VMAC test tool at the AOST outlet with the 70 cfm (0.190) orifice. Ensure that the ball valve is closed. Place the transmission in “PARK” and fully apply the park brake. Allow the engine to run until it is at operating temperature. Turn on the air compressor system and allow it to operate until the oil is warm. Observe the pressure gauge. Pressure should be approximately 150 psi.
Open the ball valve on the test tool and observe the engine tachometer:
Analog throttle control: Engine speed should increase to approximately
2,000 rpm ­ 2,500 rpm.
*Digital throttle control: Engine speed should increase to approximately
2,600 rpm.
Close the air valve slowly to allow the system pressure to rise. When the
pressure reaches 150 psi (factory setting), the system will close the inlet valve poppet and reduce the engine speed to VMAC base idle (approximately 1,000 rpm).
Once the system pressure is at maximum, slowly open the ball valve on the
test tool until the pressure on the gauge begins to drop. Engine speed should ramp up when the pressure drops to approximately 140 psi. This value can be adjusted via the “IDLE DOWN PRESSURE” (analog throttle) / “RAMP UP PRESSURE” (digital throttle) adjustment.

Adjusting the Pressure Regulator

Never adjust the pressure regulator to exceed 175 psi (1205 kPa). At 200 psi (1379 kPa), the pressure relief valve at the AOST will activate, resulting in rapid air loss, which may cause component damage, injury or death.
Prolonged operation above 175 psi / 1205 kPa may damage the pressure regulator.
The pressure regulator is adjusted to limit maximum air pressure to a safe level. As air pressure and flow are related, this adjustment is also very important for optimum performance.
Install the test tool in the tank outlet with the ball valve closed. Ensure that the oil level is correct and the system is at operating temperature. Operate the system until it reaches full pressure. Observe the pressure on the
gauge.
Loosen the lock nut on the regulator (Figure 86). Pressure can be adjusted within a range of 145 psi (999.7 kPa) ­ 175 psi (1205
kPa), dependent upon requirements.
Rotate the setting bolt clockwise to increase pressure. Rotate counter clockwise
to decrease pressure. Tighten the lock nut once adjustments are complete.
Open the ball valve to allow air to flow and the pressure to drop. Close the
valve and observe the pressure to ensure that the adjustment is correct.

Digital Throttle Control Operation and Adjustments
The VMAC digital throttle is a “slow ramp” throttle. Each time the system is powered on, it will quickly increase engine speed to 1,500 rpm; then increase to maximum VMAC rpm over 8 seconds (provided the system has not reached full system pressure before maximum VMAC rpm is reached).
After the initial slow ramp, the throttle will respond normally to air demand.
The throttle control is configured at the factory for optimum performance at maximum cfm. In applications where maximum cfm is not required, or noise is a concern, the throttle control can be adjusted to reduce the maximum VMAC rpm.
Safety features
The throttle control has built in safety features that will disable the system if an unsafe condition is detected, or either of the lock out parameters is not met (the vehicle must be in “PARK” and the park brake must be engaged).
If an unsafe condition is detected, the “STATUS” LED will turn off, and engine speed will return to idle. Once all unsafe conditions have been removed, the system must be cycled off, then on again to reset it. Once the system powers up, the “STATUS” LED will illuminate, and the system will operate normally.

Figure 87 — Throttle control
If the vehicle is placed into gear, the “STATUS” LED and the PRNDL LED will turn off and the throttle control will deactivate. This will reduce engine speed to base idle.
In order to activate the system again, re-engage the appropriate lockout and cycle the VMAC “OFF” then “ON” via the control box.

The “PRK BRAKE” LED will remain illuminated at all times, regardless of park brake position.
MAX RPM
The cfm produced by the system is directly related to engine speed; this system delivers 70 cfm at 2,600 rpm. Maximum VMAC rpm can be adjusted between 1,000 rpm and 2,650 rpm (in 50 rpm increments) via the “” or “” buttons in the “MAX RPM” column.
If the system is at full system pressure while the rpm is being adjusted, the engine speed will increase to the new value for 4 seconds, then return to base idle.
RAMP UP PRESSURE
“RAMP UP PRESSURE” is the amount of pressure the system will drop before the engine speed is increased to generate air; as air continues to be used and the pressure drops, engine speed will increase until maximum VMAC rpm is achieved.
“RAMP UP PRESSURE” is set to 140 psi (10 psi below the factory default maximum system pressure of 150 psi). This allows for a small amount of air use without the need to increase engine speed.
“RAMP UP PRESSURE” should only be adjusted if the maximum system pressure is changed (via the inlet regulator). To maintain proper performance, and rapid response to air demand, ensure the “RAMP UP PRESSURE” is set at no more than 20 psi below the maximum system pressure.
The “RAMP UP PRESSURE” can be set to “100 PSI”, “120 PSI”, “140 PSI”, or “160 PSI via the “” or “” buttons in the “RAMP UP PRESSURE” column; an LED will illuminate beside the setting that has been selected.
Factory Reset
The throttle control can be reset to factory default values via a button inside the throttle control box.
To perform a factory reset, turn the system on and allow the engine speed to drop to VMAC base idle (approximately 1,000 rpm). Using a paper clip (or similar object), push and hold the factory reset button for 5 seconds. All of the LED lights will illuminate for several seconds while the settings revert to their defaults. Once the LED’s return to their normal state, the system is ready for use again.
