Preventive compressor maintenance

Weekly

Monthly Annually

Check oil level. During standstill
the correct level is between the
maximum and the minimum
indications. Use only genuine SJ-27
synthetic oil. Do not overfill (fig. 5).

Drain condensate from air receiver
(at a pressure of max. 2 bar/30
psi) (fig.6). If fitted with auto drain,
this will take place automatically,
however, drain bottle has to be
emptied.

If compressor is fitted with outlet
filter, check and empty for water by
pressing the black button. If fitted
with auto drain, this will take place
automatically.

Check compressor, air tubes and
equipment for leaks, and check the
pumping time.

Inspect and replace intake filter, if
necessary.

Clean the compressor with a soft,
damp cloth. Dust and dirt prevent
cooling.

Check the O-ring in the non-return
valve and replace if necessary (fig.10).

Note! Empty receiver of air before
dismounting.

Check filter and filter elements for
optimum efficiency.

Test the safety valve by gently
pulling the ring with pressure in the
receiver (fig. 7).

Oil change
In connection with repair of model 4 motors, e.g. change
of valve plate or other internal motor parts or in case the
compressor is installed in a very dusty environment, oil change
may be necessary. Proceed as follows:
1. Remove the ribbed cover by loosening the 4 screws (fig. 8).
2. Tilt the motor towards side with outlet and at the same time

hold the internal motor parts in place with hand. Pour all oil
out of housing (fig. 8). In case of dirt particles at the bottom
of the motor housing, clean with a rag.

Note!

Waste oil is to be handled according to the
environmental rules in force in the country.

3. Tilt the motor back and fill with SJ-27 oil (approx. 0.55l) (fig.

8).

4. Clean the edge of casing and cover. Check the O-ring of the

ribbed cover.

5. Replace the ribbed cover and check during operation that

the O-ring is placed correctly to ensure a 100% tight closing
between housing and cover.

Important!

Always use SJ-27 oil as other types of oil may cause
serious mechanical damage to the compressor.
Consequently, the warranty only applies if SJ-27 oil is
used.

Check the pumping time
The pumping time indicates the condition of the compressor
provided that there are no leaks in the system where the
compressed air may leak. Test the compressor as follows:
1. Empty the air receiver of compressed air (the pressure

gauge shows 0 bar).

2. Close the outlet on the air receiver and check that the drain

cock is closed.

3. Start the compressor and note how long it takes until it

switches off.
Make sure that the pressure in the air receiver is 8 bar/
120 psi as deviations may indicate the wrong results (see
technical details).

Important!

Always test the compressor when cold as the time
indicated refers to the pumping time of a cold
compressor. The pumping time of a warm compressor
is much longer and consequently, the result would be
misleading.

Fault finding and repair

Important!

Switch off and isolate from electrical supply before
removing any parts from the compressor.
Empty air receiver of air before dismantling any parts
of compressor unit’s pressure system.

1. Compressor does not start:

a) No power from mains. Check fuses and plug.

b) Breakage or loose joints in electrical connections.

c) The starting relay is defective. Contact your JUN-AIR

distributor.

d) The pressure switch is defective and does not switch on

the compressor.

e) The thermal protection has switched off the compressor

due to overheating. When cooled the compressor
will automatically turn on at a suitable operation
temperature. Go through the points in section 4.

f) Pressure in the air receiver is too high for activation

of the pressure switch. The pressure switch makes
circuit only when pressure has dropped to preset start
pressure. Empty the receiver.

g) The compressor has not been unloaded and there

is back pressure on the piston. Dismount and check
unloader valve (fig. 9). The back pressure may be due to
a leaking non-return valve causing the compressed air
in the receiver to leak back into the compressor motor.
Dismount the non-return valve and clean or change O-
ring (fig. 10).

h) Capacitor defective.

2. Compressor operates, but pressure does not increase

in tank (or increases too slowly):

a) The cap on the intake tube has not been removed and

replaced by the intake filter (fig. 2).
