2. Safety
2.1 Specified conditions of use
This Sauer compressor must be used for the compressing of air
only. The Sauer compressor must not be used at ambient temper-
atures of below +5 °C. Any other use is not as specified and re-
quires the explicit consent in writing by J.P. SAUER & SOHN.
Observance of these operating instructions, the installation re-
quirements detailed in the instructions, and the keeping of main-
tenance rates are part of the specified conditions of use as well.
Danger!
High risk.
Disregard of this safety information may cause personal injury
and substantial material damage.
Note!
Average risk.
Disregard of this safety information may cause damage to the
machine.

2.5 Safety devices
Danger!
Safety devices must not be adjusted, disabled or removed.
The safety devices must be tested and checked on a regular ba-
sis.
Safety valves must be
– installed sealed and
– should only be replaced, adjusted and sealed by authorised
personnel.
Fusible plug / tem- A fusible plug is fitted in the condensate separator of the 2nd sta-
perature control ge to monitor cooling. It melts at 120 °C and allows the com-
pressed air to escape, when its temperature exceeds the
threshold value. This protects the compressor against overhea-
ting.
The fusible plug can only be used once. If it blows, it needs to be
replaced with a new one.
As an alternative to the fusible plug, the Sauer compressor can
be fitted with a temperature control. This will turn the compressor
off if the temperature of the compressed air exceeds the limit.

3.2 Mode of Operation
Drive The Sauer compressor is driven by an electric motor directly flan-
ged to the transmission bell housing of the crankcase, where the
power is transmitted by means of a flexible coupling.
Alternatively a diesel engine can be used to drive the compres-
sor. This is attached by means of a special flange. It transmits po-
wer by means of a centrifugal clutch.
Compressor cont- The Sauer compressor with electric drive is electrically controlled
rol and monitored by a compressor control system. This control sys-
tem must comply with the legal provisions. Optionally,
J.P. SAUER & SOHN supply a suitable compressor control sys-
tem.
Compression The compressor takes in ambient air through a sheet filter with
tube silencer and compresses it in two single-stage cylinders to
the ultimate pressure. Each cylinder is a compression stage, after
which the air is after-cooled.
The final compression temperatures are below the flash point of
standard motor oils (mineral oils).
The cylinders arranged in shape of the letter V are fitted with
easy-to-service lamellar valves with long service life. Due to the
low compression end temperatures the susceptibility of the val-
ves to carbonisation is extremely low.
Cooling An axial fan located on the crankshaft draws cool air in from the
surrounding and blows it over the cylinder, cooler, valves and oil
sump.
The after-cooling takes place after every stage in externally gal-
vanised gilled pipe radiator.
Condensate sepa- Condensate containing oil and water, that is formed during com-
ration pression and after-cooling, accumulates in the condensate sepa-
rator behind every stage.
I_FK008_1A.fm
20 Version 1 - 1
Design and Function
Condensate drai- The condensate is drained through drain lines. Solenoid valves
ning/Pressure reli- are fitted in the drain lines of the Sauer compressor with electric
ef motor drive. These solenoid valves must be open when the Sauer
compressor is unpressurized. The drain valves should close a
few seconds after starting and the Sauer compressor should ac-
celerate against pressure. The solenoid valves should drain the
machine at predetermined intervals during operation. The sole-
noids valves are controlled by the compressor control system.
Hand valves are fitted in the drain lines of the Sauer compressor
with diesel engine drive. Solenoid valves can be fitted optionally.
Lubrication The drive is lubricated by the splash oil in the crankcase. A dipper
on the connecting rod of the 1st stage dips in the oil sump and
splashes lubricating oil on lubricating points.

5.3 Installation
Note!
When in doubt if the intended place of installation and room are
suitable, contact J.P. SAUER & SOHN in time before the instal-
lation. There you will also get help with the design of a ventilating
system, if required at the place of installation.
For installation observe the installation instructions and the follo-
I_MO007_1A.fm
wing conditions.
28 Version 1 - 1
Transport and Installation
Installation condi- – The place of installation must be dry and free of dust.
tions – The place of installation must be vented in such way that the
heat generated during operation is dissipated.
– Room temperature while the Sauer compressor is running:
+5 … +55 °C
(deviating temperatures only if confirmed in writing by
J.P. SAUER & SOHN)
Note!
The air temperature at the cooling air intake of the compressor
must not exceed +55 °C when the compressor is running. Room
conditions and the heat, generated by the compressor and other
machines installed in the room, must be taken into considerati-
on.
• If necessary, install a ventilation or exhaust system at the
place of installation.
• Install any ventilation system in such way that the fresh air
stream is not directly directed against the compressor. Other-
wise there is a risk of condensation of water inside the machi-
ne and subsequent damage.
I_MO007_1A.fm
Version 1 - 1 29
This way is correct!
Note!
J.P. SAUER & SOHN is glad to advise you on the installation of
the compressors.
30 Version 1 - 1
Transport and Installation
Foundation
Note!
The standard delivery resilient-mount bedding has a resonant
frequency of approx. 10 Hz.
Generation of oscillations of the intended foundation by other ne-
arby machinery must not be at 10 Hz. Otherwise there is a risk
that the standard delivery resilient-mount bedding is destroyed
by sympathetic vibration.
1. Check early enough if there are foundation vibrations in the
10 Hz range.
2. If in doubt, check with J.P. SAUER & SOHN to see if a modi-
fied resilient-mount bedding can be used.
Note!
The oil filler tube is insulated using a section of hose. Do not re-
move the insulating material.
Pipelines The compressed air outlet and the drain outlet of the Sauer com-
pressor must be connected to the permanently fitted pipelines
using hose lines (see illustration).
I_MO007_1A.fm
Version 1 - 1 31
Hose lines on the Sauer com-
pressor with diesel engine
Danger!

Drain
Note!
Condensate build-up is oil-saturated. It may only be disposed of
in compliance with applicable legal regulations.
J.P. SAUER & SOHN can supply condensate collecting pots for
separating condensate, as well as condensate treatment units
for separating the oil from the condensate.
Note!
We recommend connecting the compressor's drainage separa-
tely.
When the drain lines of several compressors are to be connec-
ted to a common pipe, observe the following:
– Choose a sufficient nominal diameter for the common drain
line.

5.6 Setting the ultimate pressure switch
Note!
The ultimate pressure switch must be connected directly to the
compressed air receiver to ensure a quiet and uniform compres-
sor operation.
The pressure loss between the compressor and compressed air
receiver must be taken into account for selecting the maximum
set pressure. Too high a set pressure can cause the safety valve
of the final stage to blow off.

8.8 Checking valves
Note!
While reinstalling valves use only new gaskets and rings everyti-
me. Use only genuine Sauer spare parts. They are precision
parts with defined and tested dimensions and material characte-
ristics, specially designed for use in Sauer compressors. Instal-
lation of other gaskets may lead to leakage and could cause
substantial damage to the compressor.
Valve removal 1. Loosen unions and hose line of the crankcase vent at the cy-
linder heads.
2. Remove cylinder head nuts and remove the cylinder heads.
3. Remove the valves with care.
Checking the la- 4. Check valves. If lamellar valve is heavily carbonised or dama-

and 2nd stage)
Note!
Lamellar valves require very little maintenance and function
even in presence of small quantities of dirt in contrast to plate
valves. Normally the plates have the same service life as the val-
ve body which, due to its geometry, can not be refaced or lapped.
Therefore a replacement of individual plates is not recommen-
ded.
Should a plate be broken prematurely nevertheless (e.g. through
the influence of foreign objects), contact our service.

Valve installation
Low tolerance gasket
5. Fit lamellar valve and cylinder head of the 1st stage, Use new
cylinder head gasket as well as new low tolerance gaskets
while doing so (see Illustration above). Observe the tighte-
ning torque (see section 8.4).
Note!
Do not reuse the used low tolerance gasket under any circum-
stances. Doing so leads to leakage within a short time.
Cylinder head
gasket
O-ring
6. Fit lamellar valve and cylinder head of the 2nd stage, Use new
cylinder head gasket as well as new o-ring while doing so
(see Illustration above). Observe the tightening torque (see
section 8.4).

Note!
Particularly lamellar valves are those parts of a reciprocating
compressor, that are subject to the most stress. In order to achie-
ve the guaranteed maintenance intervals, these valve are high-
quality precision parts, specially matched to the individual com-
pression stages and their functioning carefully checked before
delivery. Repair by the maintenance and operating personnel re-
quires special knowledge, which may not be available every time.
For such cases J.P. SAUER & SOHN offer a valve replacement
service. In case it should be necessary please contact the Sauer
service department.
Note!
If the piston is not held when pulling the cylinder off, it will fall
against the crankcase.
Note!
Always replace all pistons rings of a piston when one of the pis-
ton rings exceeds the limit.

Placing out of Service
Note!
Use one of the slushing oils recommended in Chapter 10 "Lub-
ricant Table" for corrosion protection.
The slushing oil has satisfactory running properties. In case of
emergency the machine can be started for a short duration with
slushing oil filling.
1. Run compressor for approx. 5 minutes with drain valves and
pressure line open.
✓ Any existing condensate is blown off.
2. Open the oil drain plug (see illustration in chapter 8.5 "Oil
change“), drain compressor oil and dispose it off in an envi-
ronmentally friendly manner. Close the oil drain plug again.
3. Fill about 3 litres of slushing oil.
4. Start compressor and run for approx. 5 minutes with drain val-
ves and pressure line opened.
5. Stop compressor.
6. Remove the air filter on the cylinder head of the 1st stage (see
illustration in section 3.1 "Overview"). For this purpose, loo-
sen the clamp and lift off the air filter.
7. Unscrew the safety valve of the 1st stage on the cylinder head
I_DE006_1.fm
Version 1 - 1 59
into the intake port of the 1st stage.
9. Slowly inject approx. 10 cc slushing oil in the opening in the
cylinder head of the 2nd stage.
10. Wait until oil mist comes out of the pressure line.
11. Stop compressor.
12. Fit air filter and safety valve back. Use new gasket for the
safety valve.
13. If necessary, post a sign that the compressor has been trea-
ted with anticorrosion agents and is shut down.
14. Disconnect power lines from the mains supply, if necessary.
9.3 Dismantling
Dismantling 1. Turn compressor OFF and disconnect from power supply.
2. Make sure by reading the pressure gauges before servicing
that the compressor is completely relieved of pressure.
3. Disconnect power lines from the mains supply.
4. Remove oil and lubricants and dispose of in an environmen-
tally friendly manner.
5. Drain any remaining condensate and dispose of in an envi-
ronmentally friendly manner.
