EMAX SAFTEY INFORMATION This manual contains very important information to know and understand. This is to provide for SAFTEY and to PREVENT EQUIPMENT PROBLEMS. To help understand this information, observe the following: DANGER: WARNING: CAUTION: NOTICE: WARNING: Danger indicates and imminently hazardous situation which, if not avoided, will result in death or serious injury. Warning indicates a potentially hazardous situation which if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury.
EMAX Breathable Air 1. NEVER use air from this compressor for breathable air except in full compliance with OSHA Standards 29 CFR 1910 and any other Federal, State or Local codes or regulations. 2. DO NOT use airline anti-icer systems in air lines supplying respirators or other equipment used to produce breathable air. DO NOT discharge air from these systems in unventilated or other confined areas.

EMAX INSTALLATION Area 1. Install compressor in a clean, dry, and well-lit area. Be sure installation area can maintain a temperature range between 35˚ - 110˚ F. CAUTION: If ambient temperature drops below 32˚F, be sure to protect safety/relief valves and drain valves from freezing. NEVER operate compressor with temperatures below 15˚F or above 125˚F. 2. Allow sufficient space around the compressor for maintenance access and adequate airflow.
EMAX Lifting and Movement/Forklift 1. Make sure lift operator stays aware while moving the compressor. 2. Be sure to uncrate the compressor prior to movement. This will allow a visual reference for the balance of the unit. 3. Be sure the load is secure and well balanced before moving the compressor. 4. Make sure the forks are fully engaged and level prior to lifting or moving the unit. 5. Keep the unit/load as low as possible while moving and refrain from quick changes in direction. 6.
EMAX Anchoring To ensure proper and safe operation of the compressor the unit is required to be anchored to a flat, smooth, concrete floor. Compressors are also required to be on ¼ inch (6.35mm) MAXIMUM thick rubber antivibration pads. ISOLATOR001A Recommended anchor Bolt specifications: wedge anchors; 3/8 in width by 3.5 in length. How to Anchor the Compressor 1. Make sure the compressor is in the desired location and the anti-vibration pads are under the feet of the compressor. 2.
EMAX Electrical Safety 1. Follow all NEC and local codes for electrical wiring. Allow only authorized service personnel or certified electricians to install electrical components. 2. Put unit on a dedicated circuit and make sure no other electrical equipment is wired into it. Failure to wire unit on an independent circuit can cause circuit overload and/or imbalance in motor phasing. Install proper No Fuse Breaker (NFB) according to the chart listed below.
EMAX Wire and Breaker Requirements 1. Voltage should not vary more than 12% to ensure proper operation of the compressor. 2. Wire size and breaker requirements for single phase units:** Motor Horsepower 5 7.5 10 Breaker Size (Amps) 40 50 60 Wire Size (50ft or less)* 8 gauge 6 gauge 4 gauge Wire Size (More than 50ft) Peak Start Amps (Locked Rotor) Consult Electrician Consult Electrician Consult Electrician 135 210 270 *Wire size distances are from unit to the panel where the breaker is housed.
EMAX 4.
EMAX The automatic tank drain does not come installed on this unit. This is to prevent damage to the tank drain during shipping. Tank drain should be attached to compressor located on the rear of the unit under the belt guard in a separate box. Tank drain should be wrapped with teflon tape prior to install into the bell coupler located at the bottom of the tank. AUTOMATIC TANK DRAIN Sec. – the length of the drain/ purge in seconds. Min.
EMAX DANGER: NEVER install a shut off valve such as a glove or gate valve between the pump discharge and the air tank unless an ASME rated safety valve rated for the correct pressure is installed in the line between the valve and the compressor pump. 1. Minimum pipe size for compressed air lines: (Pipe sizes are shown in inches) CFM 25ft 50ft 100ft 20 ¾ ¾ ¾ 40 ¾ ¾ 1 60 ¾ 1 1 100 1 1 1 125 1–¼ 125 1–¼ 250ft 1 1 1 1–¼ 1–½ 2. Air systems should be checked daily for leaks.
EMAX 4. Make sure any tube, pipe, fitting, or hose connected to the unit can withstand operating temperatures and retain pressure. 5. Never use reducers in discharge piping. Keep all piping and fittings the same size in the piping system. WARNING: Never use plastic (PVC) pipe for compressed air. Serious injury or death could result. Piping MUST have a pressure rating of 200 PSI or greater. PRE-USE INSPECTION 1. The unit is shipped with pump break-in oil and should be ready to operate.
EMAX 5. Inspect all air lines/piping for proper for secure fit and corrosion or line degradation. DO NOT operate the compressor with damaged lines. DO NOT use damaged or cracked air lines as a rupture could result in damage/injury to personnel or property. 6. WITH UNIT LOCKED OUT (power off at source i,e. the electrical panel/disconnect) ensure all electrical wiring, including all terminals, are in good condition and are free of buildup, fraying, cracks or discoloration replace as needed.
EMAX Maintenance Schedule The table below is a generalized maintenance schedule based on the normal usage of a compressor. Your specific needs may vary based on operating environment and duty. Item Cleanliness Frequency Daily Comment Keep the compressor and the surrounding area clean. Wipe off oil, spills, and dirt/dust. Oil Level Daily Check oil level while the unit is OFF. If oil is low add to fill point. If level is high, drain off oil. Tank Pressure Daily Check unit for air leaks.
EMAX Oil Choice It is strongly advised to use only Airbase Industries piston compressor oil. Check with your warranty/extended warranty guidelines to verify oil selection and use. Oil used in the compressor must fall under the following criteria: synthetic, SAE grade 30, non-detergent, piston compressor oil. Oil Disposal Compressor oil is not trash and MUST NOT be disposed of in regular trash or discarded into the environment.
