General Description
Quincy QGV series compressors are
single stage, positive displacement, uid-
ooded rotary screw compressors with
variable frequency drives. The drive motor
directly drives the male rotor through
a exible drop out type coupling with
no step up or step down gearing. The
compressor airend contains two precision-
machined rotors, a male rotor with four
lobes in constant mesh with a female
rotor consisting of six utes. The rotors
are housed in a cast iron cylinder with two
parallel adjoining bores. The airend has
an inlet port at the power input end and
a discharge port at the opposite end. All
parts are machined to exacting tolerances.
QGV model compressors use positive
pressure in the reservoir to circulate the
compressor uid through the system.
All compressor components are mounted
on a heavy-duty steel frame. Controls and
indicators are arranged on a control panel
and acoustical cabinets are available to
reduce sound levels.

Table
The Compression Cycle
The compression cycle of a rotary
compressor is a continuous process from
intake to discharge with no reciprocating
mechanisms starting and stopping as
found in reciprocating compressors.
As the rotors rotate, (male-clockwise as
viewed from the power input end) air is
drawn into the cylinder through the inlet
port located at the power input end. A
volume of air is trapped as the rotor lobes
pass the inlet cut off points in the cylinders.
Compression occurs as the male rotor
rolls into the female ute, progressively
reducing the space thereby raising the
pressure. Compression continues until
the lobe and ute pass the discharge port.
The compressed air is then discharged
into the air/uid reservoir. There are four
complete compression cycles for each
complete rotation of the male rotor.
Air Flow
With the compressor operating, a partial
vacuum is produced at the compressor
inlet. Air entering via the compressor air
lter ows through the air inlet valve into
the rotor housing where it is compressed,
then discharged into the air/uid reservoir.
Compressed air passes through the
complete system then through a minimum
pressure check valve to the service
connection.
Capacity Control System
The capacity control system on QGV
compressors is a start/stop control which
varies air delivery based on target pressure
(usage).
As the motor begins driving the
compressor rotors, air is drawn in,
compressed and discharged into the
air/uid reservoir. When the air pressure
in the reservoir exceeds the set point,
the QGV variable speed drive begins
controlling the speed of the compressor.
The drive matches air delivery of the
compressor to air usage in the plant,
maintaining pressure at the target pressure
( 1 psi).
If a reduction in usage is experienced,
the drive will slow to compensate for the
reduction. For the 20-60 hp units, if the
drive speed slows to 1000 RPM (indicating
that no air is needed), the drive will shut
down the compressor. For the 75-200
hp units, if the drive speed slows to 600
RPM (indicating that no air is needed),
the drive will shut down the compressor.
The compressor will restart automatically
when demand returns. The unit will also
shutdown when pressure in the system is
increased to 15 psi above unit set pressure.
WARNING!
Never assume it is safe to work on a
compressor because it is not operating.
It may be in standby mode and could
restart at any time. Follow all safety
instructions in the Preparing for
Maintenance or Service section.
Table
Cooling System
Fluid Coolers
Fluid coolers may use either air or water
as a cooling medium. The following
descriptions point out the major
differences between the two types of
coolers.
Air-cooled Fluid Coolers
The air-cooled uid cooler and aftercooler
are of the nned aluminum tube, one
piece design. Ambient air is forced
through the ns by a motor driven fan,
cooling the uid and air in the tubes. To
maintain proper compressor operation, the
ambient air temperature should not exceed
the temperatures listed in Appendix B
- Technical Data. The cooler ns must
be kept clean at all times. Fluid leaving
the reservoir passes through a thermal
mixing valve before traveling on to the
cooler. The purpose of the thermal valve
is to maintain a minimum uid discharge
temperature at the compressor of
approximately 180F.
Water-cooled Fluid Coolers
(Not Available for 20-60 HP Units)
Water-cooled uid coolers are of the shell
and tube design. Fluid passes through
the shell transferring its heat to the water
owing through the tubes. Fluid leaving
the cooler does not pass through a thermal
mixing valve as in an air-cooled unit, but
goes directly to the uid lter and the
compressor. Fluid discharge temperature
at the compressor is maintained by a
thermostatic valve.
Aftercoolers
Aftercoolers reduce the amount of water
in the discharge air. They are used to
lower the temperature of the discharge
air thereby condensing water vapor from
the compressed air. This allows most of
the contained water to be trapped and
expelled from the unit, reducing water
related problems downstream.
Air-cooled aftercoolers are part of the air-
cooled uid cooler. Cooling air from the
fan is blown through the aftercooler and
the uid cooler.
Water-cooled aftercoolers are placed in
series with the uid cooler. Incoming water
is rst directed through the aftercooler and
then on to the uid cooler.
A combination moisture separator and
water trap is provided for collecting and
expelling water to the customers drain.
Table
Electrical System
A diagram of the electrical system is
shown in the parts manual sent with the
compressor. A wiring diagram is also
included in the control panel on all Quincy
QGV compressors.
NOTICE!
Due to continuing product improvements
and updates, it is suggested that the
wiring diagram included in the control
panel be used when servicing the
electrical control.
Standard drive motors for the 20-50 hp
units are open drip proof 3600 RPM with a
maximum ambient temperature rating of
100F. Standard drive motors for the 60 hp
units are open drip proof 4400 RPM with
a maximum ambient temperature rating
of 100F. Standard drive motors for the
75-100 hp units are open drip proof 1800
RPM with a maximum ambient temperature
rating of 100F. They are not suitable for
salt laden, corrosive, dirty, wet or explosive
environments.
The QGV series compressors utilize 460V
incoming power. A transformer in the
control panel reduces this voltage to 120
VAC for various electronic controls on the
unit. These controls include the pressure
transducer, high air temperature safety
switch and probe, solenoid valve and
various indicator lights.
Other incoming line voltages are available
as options. The compressor is provided
with a NEMA 1 enclosure.
Air-cooled models utilize a second
magnetic starter for protection of the uid
cooler fan motor. This starter is connected
to the compressor starter through an
interlock which insures the fan motor is
operating with the compressor motor. If
the fan motor starter trips out for any
reason, the compressor unit will shut down.
DANGER!
High voltage could cause death or
serious injury. Disconnect all power
supplies before opening the electrical
enclosure or servicing.
Safety Sensors
One high air temperature (HAT) sensors is
standard on QGV units 20-60 hp. Two high
air temperature (HAT) sensors are standard
on QGV units 75-200 hp. These sensors
protect the unit by sensing unusually high
temperatures and shutting the unit down.
One is located in the discharge line from
the compressor to the air/ uid reservoir.
The second is located in the top of the air/
uid reservoir. These sensors are set to trip
at approximately 235-245F. The sensors
are nonadjustable.
WARNING!
Never remove, bypass or tamper
with the safety HAT switch. Failure
to provide this safety feature could
cause death or serious injury and
property damage. If the compressor
is shutting down due to high discharge
temperature, contact a qualified service
technician immediately.
Table
Control Panel
QGV compressors are equipped with an
electronic control with a touch screen
control panel.
Once power is applied to the unit (after
going through several self test routines)
the touch screen will indicate the set
point (target pressure), package output
pressure, discharge temperature, operating
mode, total hours of operation, and the
operating speed of the compressor. A bar
graph show the degree of loading of the
compressor. When the bars match, the
delivery pressure equals the pressure set
point.
Messages indicating service items that
need attention will appear on the touch
screen as they are tripped. The touch
screen menu also provides access to
various information and settings for the
compressor.
Only trained and knowledgeable service
personnel should alter the compressor
settings. Reference Section IV - Operating
Procedures and Section V - Servicing for
more information about QGV compressor
settings and menu options.

Receiving
Upon receipt, immediately inspect the
compressor for any visible damage that
may have occurred during shipment. If
visible damage is found, the delivering
carrier should make a notation on the
freight bill and the customer should
request a damage report. If the shipment
is accepted and damage is found later,
it is classied as concealed damage.
Concealed damage should be reported
to the delivering carrier within 15 days
of delivery. The delivering carrier must
prepare a damage report. Itemized
supporting papers are essential to ling a
claim.
Read the compressor nameplate to be
sure the compressor is the model and size
ordered and that optionally ordered items
are included.
Check the reservoir and pressure relief
valves to be sure they are adequate for the
pressure at which you intend to operate.
Moving the Unit to the Installation Site
Forklift slots are provided in one side and
one end of the main frame. Use of chains
and slings should be limited to the main
frame. Do not attempt to lift the unit by
attaching to any components. Optional
lifting eyes are available.
CAUTION!
Improper lifting may result in component,
system damage or personal injury.
Follow good shop practices and safety
procedures when moving the unit.
WARNING!
Removal or painting over safety labels
will result in uninformed conditions.
This could result in personal injury or
property damage. Warning signs and
labels shall be provided with enough
light to read, conspicuously located
and maintained for legibility. Do
not remove any warning, caution or
instructional material attached.
Table
Location
Locate the compressor on a level surface
in a clean, well-lit and well-ventilated
area. Allow sufcient space (four feet
of clearance on all sides and top of
the compressor) for safe and proper
daily inspection and maintenance. The
entire length of the frame base must be
supported. Shim where necessary but do
not use wood.
Ambient temperature should not exceed
100F. High ambient temperatures may
result in a high air temperature shutdown.
WARNING!
Do not operate in temperatures below
32F or above the limits outlined in
Appendix B - Technical Data.
Do not locate the unit where the hot
exhaust air from other compressors or heat
generating equipment may be drawn into
the unit. Never restrict the ow of exhaust
air from the uid cooler or cooling fan.
Heated exhaust air must be exhausted
outside to prevent high temperature
conditions in the compressor room. If
the room is not properly ventilated,
compressor operating temperatures will
increase and cause a high temperature
shutdown.
CAUTION!
Clean, fresh air, of sufficient quantity,
is required for proper compressor
operation.
Clean air is essential for your Quincy
QGV compressor. Always select a source
providing the cleanest air possible. When
an outside air source is used, keep all
piping as short and direct as possible. Use
vibration isolators and support all piping
correctly. Piping size should be at least
as large as the inlet valve opening and
increased several sizes for extremely long
piping runs. The piping must be leak free
and clean after fabrication.
In high humidity areas, avoid placing
the compressor in a basement or other
damp locations. Control the compressor
temperatures and monitor compressor uid
for signs of water contamination. Fluid and
lter changes may need to be increased in
high humidity areas. Increased operating
temperatures may be required.
CAUTION!
Removal or modification of sound
insulation could result in dangerously
high sound levels.
Quincy QGV compressors are essentially
vibration free, however, some customers
may choose to bolt the unit to the oor
to prevent the accidental breakage of
piping or electrical connections as a result
of being bumped. Use only lag bolts to
secure the unit. Do not pull the bolts down
tight. Overtightening the lag bolts may
place the frame in a twist or bind causing
breakage of uid coolers, piping and
reservoirs.
WARNING!
Under no circumstances should a
compressor be installed in an area
exposed to a toxic, volatile or corrosive
atmosphere, nor should toxic, volatile
or corrosive agents be stored near the
compressor.
Table
Piping Connections
Never join pipes or ttings by soldering.
Lead-tin solders have low strength, a
low creep limit, and may, depending on
the alloy, start melting at 360F. Silver
soldering and hard soldering are forms of
brazing and should not be confused with
lead-tin soldering. Never use plastic, PVC,
ABS pipe or rubber hose in a compressed
air system.
Piping Fit-up
Care must be taken to avoid assembling
the piping in a strain with the compressor.
Piping should line up without having
to be sprung or twisted into position.
Adequate expansion loops or bends
should be installed to prevent undue
stress at the compressor resulting from the
changes between hot and cold conditions.
Pipe supports should be mounted
independently of the compressor and
anchored, as necessary, to limit vibration
and prevent expansion strains. Piping
should never be of smaller size than the
connection on the compressor unit.
Relief Valves
Pressure relief valves are
sized to protect the system.
Never change the pressure
setting or tamper with
the valve. Only the relief
valve manufacturer or an
approved representative
is qualied to make such a
change.
DANGER!
Relief valves are installed to protect
system integrity in accordance with
ANSI/ASME B19 safety standards.
Failure to provide properly sized relief
valves will result in death or serious
injury.
Relief valves must be placed ahead of any
potential blockage point. That includes,
but is not limited to, such components
as shutoff valves, heat exchangers and
discharge silencers. Ideally, the relief
valve should be threaded directly into the
pressure point it is sensing (not connected
with tubing or pipe) and pointed away from
personnel.
CAUTION!
ASME coded pressure vessels must
not be modified, welded, repaired,
reworked or subjected to operating
conditions outside the nameplate
ratings. Such actions will negate code
status, affect insurance status and
may cause death, serious injury and
property damage.
Table
Electrical
Before installation, the electrical supply
should be checked for adequate wire
size and capacity. During installation,
a suitable fused disconnect switch with
semiconductor fuses (AJT or LPJ type)
should be provided. Any unreasonable
voltage unbalance (5%) between the legs
must be eliminated and any low voltage
corrected to prevent excessive current
draw. The installation, electric motor,
wiring and all electrical controls must be
in accordance with National Electric Code,
and all state and local codes. A qualied
electrician should perform all electrical
work. Air compressors must be grounded
in accordance with applicable codes.
See control panel for the proper wiring
diagram.
Quincy Compressor would like to
emphasize the importance of providing
adequate grounding for air compressors.
The common practice of grounding units
to building structural steel may not actually
provide adequate grounding protection, as
paint and corrosion buildup may exist.
CAUTION!
NEMA el ectri cal encl osures and
components must be appropriate to
the area in which they are installed.
Velocity Fuses
The Occupational Safety and Health Act,
Section 1926.303 Paragraph 7 published
in Code of Federal Regulations 29 CFR
1920.1 (revised 07/01/1982), states all
hoses exceeding 1/2 inside diameter
shall have a safety device at the source of
supply or branch line to reduce pressure
in case of a hose failure. These safety
devices are designed to prevent hoses
from whipping, which could result in a
serious or fatal accident.
Guards
All mechanical action or motion is
hazardous in varying degrees and needs to
be guarded. Guarding shall comply with
OSHA Safety and Health Standards 29 CFR
1910.219 in OSHA manual 2206 (revised
11/07/1978) and any state or local codes.
Manual Vent and Shutoff Valve
Install a manual valve to vent the
compressor and the compressor discharge
line to atmosphere. If the air receiver tank
services a single compressor, the manual
valve can be installed in the receiver.
When a manual shutoff valve (block valve)
is used, a manual valve should be installed
upstream from the valve, and a pressure
relief valve installed upstream from the
manual vent valve. These valves are
to be designed and installed to permit
maintenance to be performed in a safe
manner. Never substitute a check valve for
a manual shutoff valve (block valve) if the
purpose is to isolate the compressor from a
system for servicing.
Table
Water and Sewer Facilities at the In-
stallation Site
(75-200 HP Water-cooled Models)
Clean, soft and/or treated water is required
to ensure the efcient, long service life of
the water-cooled heat exchangers.
It is strongly recommended that a
reputable, local water treatment company
be engaged prior to start-up to establish
the corrosion, scale forming and fouling
tendency of the cooling water and remedy
the situation if a problem exists.
NOTICE!
Failure to develop a water treatment
pl an may r esul t i n i ncr eased
maintenance and operating expense,
reduced equipment life and emergency
shutdown.
Make sure the water supply is connected
and open. Piping supplied by the user
should be at least equal to the connections
provided on the compressor. Sewer
facilities should be readily accessible
to the installation site and meet all the
requirements of local sewer codes, plus
those of the compressor. Make sure
water inlet and discharge connections are
correct.
Table
Compressor Rotation
Compressor rotation is controlled by the
variable speed drive (drive motor only).
Correct connection of the drive motor (to
the drive) is veried at the factory. If the
drive motor is disconnected for any reason,
follow the wiring diagram supplied with the
drive motor when reconnecting the motor
to the drive to ensure proper rotation.
WARNING!
Operati ng the compressor wi th
incorrect rotation will result in extreme
damage to the compressor and warranty
coverage will be voided.
Fan Rotation (air-cooled only)
20-200 hp Units (air-cooled only)
Check the fan rotation prior to start-up.
Air is sucked thru the cooler and
discharged out the top of the package.
Shipping Supports
Shipping supports are used to secure
the motor and airend during shipping to
prevent damage to the motor, airend,
reservoir and the connections to these
components.
The shipping supports are painted red and
are located near the motor support.
NOTICE!
Once the compressor has been located
and secured at the installation site, the
shipping supports must be removed
before operating the unit.
To remove the shipping supports, remove
the screws attaching them to the airend
and to the base.

Table
Network Controls
The latest generation of the QGV compressors can operate in a network of up to six QGV compressors
provided all of the network compressors have the PLC controls and the G120 drive technology. It is im-
portant to consider the nature of variable speed compressor operation when setting up a QGV network.
The QGV compressor operates in a single PID control loop to dynamically maintain system pressure in
response to changes in demand. However a network of QGVs operates under multiple PID controls in a
systematic pressure response where in only a single PID control is set to operate at the target pressure at
any given time.
Important Considerations
Compressor sizes must be held constant to ensure that the system performance remains consistent.
Typically a PID loop operates under the entire range of the compressor and subsequently a network of
compressors will operate in a much slower and choppier PID function. Because of this the network can
only consistently operate in a proper capacity with units that are of the same size.
Network Options:
The QGV has two modes of network operation: Auto-Rotation Mode and Sequence and Schedule Mode.
Auto-Rotation Mode:
In auto-rotation (AR) mode the QGV network operates in a xed sequence that is triggered from the
compressor designated by the AR master (typically the lowest compressor ID number present on the
network). From this compressor the sequence is set for the rest of the network compressors active in AR
mode. At a time specied by the rotation cycle (daily, weekly, or monthly) the AR master will trigger a
rotation cycle on the sequence where the rst compressor in the sequence is placed at the last non-zero
value of the sequence and then all of the subsequent sequence values rotate forward. This allows for a
consistent rotation and equalization of runtime hours amongst the compressors.
Sequence and Schedule Mode:
In Sequence and Schedule Mode the QGV network can load up to 5 different sequences of up to 6 com-
pressors at various times throughout the week as set by individual days of the week. The same schedule
can be activated multiple days of the week to cover the various demands placed upon the air system.
Greater detail on this is covered in the setup section.
Network Operation:
The nature of network control of a variable speed compressor forces network control of the attached
compressors via pressure setpoint offsets. This allows the compressors to be controlled while keeping all
individual safety and motor protection limitations active. An offset pressure is applied to upstream and
downstream compressors to keep the compressors at an operational maximum or minimum to allow for
a logical progression to the network. The compressor with the pointer will operate its PID value at the
network target pressure, a compressor that is in sequence before the pointer will operate at a pressure at
the network target pressure plus the offset (to keep the compressor running at maximum), and a com-
pressor that is in sequence after the compressor with the pointer will operate at a pressure at the net-
work target pressure minus the offset (to keep the compressor off or at a minimum run setting).
Table
To start the network operations setup start by going to
the main menu screen.
Then touch the Network Operation button in the right
hand side of the menu.
The Network Operation screen is the start of the net-
work control setup. Compressor ID sets the network
address of this compressor.
Each compressor in the network must have its own
unique ID number.
If you need to change this number than touch the
number area next to Compressor ID.
Values between 1 and 6 are admissible as valid com-
pressor ID communication addresses. Once entered
the value will change on the Network Operation
screen.
Table
To initialize the network address change the compres-
sor ID must be set by pressing the Set Compressor ID
button. This will set the communications address for
port 1 to the address entered.
To initialize the network control options on the com-
pressor press the Network Operation ON or Network
Operation OFF buttons on the left side of the screen.
This will bring up the blue network Setup button on
the bottom of the screen next to the Return button.
The Setup button will allow access to the Auto-Ro-
tation or Sequence and Schedule network control
options and the other network features. To turn off
network mode simply press the Network Operation
OFF button. The Control Pressure Setpoint sets the
offset value to apply to the compressors that do not
currently have the network pointer.
In this example, with the PSI setpoint pressure of 100
set on the main screen, the 5.0 setpoint will set the
network operating pressures at 105.0 and 95.0 for
the units before and after the pointer in the active
sequence.
Pressing the Setup button will take you to the Net-
work Conguration screen.
The Network Conguration screen that allows you to
select the network operation mode in which to run this
compressor.
Sequence and Schedule Mode: Operates off of a vari-
able sequence and schedule as set by the days of the
week.
Auto-Rotation Mode: Sets the compressor network to
operate from a common sequence that is rotated at a
xed time once a day, week, or month based on the
user selection.
Press the Seq.-Sched button.
Table
Sequence and Schedule Mode has screens for setting
the schedule and for setting the sequence.
Additionally the Pointer Pass Delay settings screen can
be set from any of the schedule modes.
Network Control Settings Screen lets you set the
Pointer Pass Delay time or the minimum RPM trigger
percentage for this unit on the network.
The Pointer Pass Delay establishes an X second delay
before a transition in loading or unloading the next
QGV in sequence.
The Minimum Drive RPM Trigger Percent is the per-
centage of the unit output as read in RPM that the
unit has to fall below in order to trigger a decreasing
transition on the network.
Press the Schedule button.
Schedule Control allows the user to enter up to 5 dif-
ferent schedules that can be run on any combination
of the standard days of the week.
To change the schedule number simply select the
proper schedule from the Schedule Number to edit
eld.

Table
For example schedule 1 will load sequence 1 at 10:00
AM on Monday-Friday.
Schedule 2 will load sequence 2 at 8:00 AM on Tues-
day, Wednesday, and Thursday.

Now press the Schedules button.
The time in which the sequence is loaded is entered
in the Scheduled Time entry eld. This time value is
entered into an hour hour minute minute format using
a 24 hour clock (i.e. 10:00 AM is entered as 1000 1035
PM is entered as 2235).
Sequence to Load species the numeric sequence to
be loaded at the time specied in the schedule.
The bottom of the screen allows the user to select
the days of the week in which to load this sequence.
The same schedule can be run on any combination of
days.

Table
The Schedules button will let you see all 5 schedules
that are entered into the compressor network.
Press the Sequence button.
The Sequence Control Screen lets the user set up to
6 sequences by which to control the compressors that
are established onto the network.
Table
Select the sequence to edit by selecting the sequence
number from the drop down selection.
Then enter the sequence you wish to run by entering
the compressors onto the network in the numeric en-
try elds at the bottom of the screen. Each rectangle
represents a successive location within the sequence.
In this example sequence 1 is a sequence of 1, 2.
NOTICE!
Although 10 compressors are displayed per se-
quence, only 6 compressors can be entered into any
sequence.
The Sequences button will bring up a display of all of
the sequences entered onto the network.
Press the Sequences button.
The Sequence Overview screen shows all of the
entered sequences. For a sequence to be valid and
transmitted across the network it must contain at least
a single compressor, even if this compressor is not
present on the network.
NOTICE!
Although 6 sequences are displayed with 10 com-
pressors per sequence, there is a maximum of 6
compressors per sequence.
Now press the Return button until you come to the
Network Conguration screen.
Table
Auto-Rotation mode sets the operating sequence
from a single compressor acting as a master on the
network.
Press the Auto-Rotation button.
Auto-Rotation Mode is set only from the compres-
sor in the Auto-Rotation Master position. In turn this
compressor will set all of the other compressor on
the network. Only 6 compressor ID numbers can be
entered per sequence.
Auto-Rotation uses a single sequence as entered in
the blue sequence eld on the top of the screen.
Rotation takes place at the specied time as selected
by the user in a daily, weekly, or monthly capacity.
The time to rotate has to be set. Depending in the
Auto-Rotation selection, the time to rotate will be in
hours, days, or day of the month.
The Rotation Trigger Reset allows another rotation of
the sequence when the rotation has already occurred
at some point in the day. Note that the rotation will
only trigger once in a 24 hour period unless manually
reset by use of this button.
In this example rotation will occur once a week on
Sunday at 5:00 AM.
Table
For this example the rotation occurs on the rst day of
the month at 5:00 AM.
After rotation the operating sequence will be 2, 1.
Where the rotation swaps the rst position in se-
quence with the rst the position of the rst zero value
minus 1.
The Network Diagnostic screen allows you to check
the network communications and current state of the
networked compressors. This provides a local snap-
shot of the system communications that can be useful
in troubleshooting communication or network issues.
Press the Network Diagnostic button from the Net-
work Operation page to bring up the diagnostic
screen.
Table
The Network Diagnostic screen shows a graphic rep-
resentation of the compressor data as read from the
network. The gray network diagnostics eld shows the
compressors that are presently reporting communica-
tions as read from the local compressor.
If a compressor is communicating on the network then
a number and a triangle will be displayed.
The color of the triangle represents the pointer state
of the compressor.
Red: Indicates that the compressor has the pointer
and is operating at the network target pressure.
Orange/Yellow: Indicates that the compressor is
before the pointer in the sequence. As such any
compressor that is before the pointer in the sequence
should be operating at the network target pressure
plus the pressure offset to keep the compressor run-
ning at max speed.
Blue: Indicates that the compressor is after the
pointer in the sequence and should not be running or
should be running at a minimum speed. This means
that the compressor should be operating at network
target pressure minus the pressure offset this should
try and unload the compressor if possible.
Black: Indicates that the compressor is not in a net-
work mode (local control) or that the compressor is
suffering from a fault.
Table
At the bottom of the screen in the green eld shows
the current and active sequence. The current se-
quence is the sequence that is currently loaded from
the network. The active sequence is the sequence
as cross referenced with available compressors in a
network operating state: compressors in a running or
a standby state.
If a compressor is not shown in the Network Diagnos-
tic screen or in the active compressor list then there is
a communication problem with that address from the
compressor you are viewing this screen on. Typically
this falls into one of 2 issues: 1, the compressor has
a duplicate address as a compressor already on the
network. 2, there is a network cable issue.
If 1 then be sure to set a unique address in Network
Operation Screen and press the Set Compressor ID
button. If 2 then check the wire connections in the
Probus Terminator Connections. The probus wires
are small connections that can get easily ipped
around or loosened up inside the terminator.
Now press the Return button until you reach the main
screen.
Table
In network mode the main screen will show several
indications of network operation.
Network Mode
The Network Average Pressure will display next to the
Local Discharge Pressure display.
The Network Operating Pressure Set Point (Net SP) is
displayed in the lower right hand side of the screen.
The Net SP display will change with the position of the
compressor in the operating sequence, plus or minus
the offset value as necessary. The current network
operating mode is under the Net SP display.

THE INSTRUCTIONS ON THE FOLLOWING PAGES WILL GIVE MORE DETAILS ABOUT DETERMINING WHEN
SPECIFIC SERVICE SHOULD BE PERFORMED.
NOTICE!
Reference pages 72 thru 82 for specific instructions on performing general
maintenance. Reference Section VI - Compressor Fluids for instructions regarding
taking fluid samples and selecting an appropriate fluid for your machine.
NOTICE!
Failure to follow these maintenance and service recommendations may adversely affect
your warranty. Copy the Maintenance Record (Appendix C - page 140) and maintain
accurate and complete maintenance records to ensure warranty compliance.
Table
Safety
Safety procedures while servicing the
compressor are important to both the
service personnel and to those who may
be around the compressor and the system
it serves. Listed below are some, but not
all, procedures that should be followed:
Wait for the unit to cool before
starting service. Temperatures may
exceed 180F when the compressor is
operating.
Clean up fluid spills immediately to
prevent slipping.
Loosen, but do not remove, flange or
component bolts. Carefully pry apart
to be sure there is no residual pressure
before removing bolts.
Never use a flammable solvent such as
gasoline or kerosene for cleaning air
filters or compressor parts.
Safety solvents are available and should
be used in accordance with their
instructions.
NOTICE!
Maintenance or service should be
performed by trained and qualified
service technicians only.
CAUTION!
Unusual noise or vibration indicates
a problem. Do not operate the
compressor until the source has been
identified and corrected.
Water Removal
Water vapor may condense in the reservoir
and must be removed. Water is heavier
than the compressor uid and will collect
at the bottom of the reservoir.
The frequency with which the water must
be removed is determined by the ambient
air conditions. During hot and humid
conditions, water should be drained off the
bottom of the reservoir daily. In cold and
dry conditions, water may only need to be
drained weekly.
WARNING!
Water content in the compressor fluid in
excess of 200 PPM could cause bearing
damage and/or airend failure.
To drain water from the reservoir:
Turn the compressor off by the main
switch and perform proper lockout/
tagout procedure.
Completely depressurize the
compressor circuits (reference
on page 70 and Safety instructions on
page 72).
Allow compressor to sit idle for at least
5 minutes.
Open the drain valve.
Close the valve when the water
flow changes to compressor fluid.
(When the drain is first opened some
compressor fluid may come out before
the water starts to flow.)
Since this water will contain some
compressor fluid, dispose of the water
in accordance with Local, State, and
Federal environmental regulations.
Table
Service Adjustments
Water-cooled Heat Exchangers
Most water-cooled heat exchanger
problems result from underestimating the
importance of water treatment and heat
exchanger maintenance. Cleaning the
heat exchanger tubes on a regular basis
and providing a clean, soft and/or treated
water supply will ensure the efcient, long
service life of the heat exchangers.
Impurities in the cooling water supply
can impact the service life of the heat
exchanger. It is strongly recommended
that a reputable, local water treatment
company be engaged prior to start-up to
establish the corrosion, scale forming and
fouling tendency of the cooling water and
remedy the situation if a problem does
exist.
NOTICE!
Failure to develop a water treatment
pl an may r esul t i n i ncr eased
maintenance and operating expense,
reduced equipment life and emergency
shutdown.
Water treatment may involve ltration
(screening) to remove debris, sand and/or
silt in the water supply or, in more severe
cases, chemical treatment methods may
be necessary to inhibit corrosion and/or
remove suspended solids to reduce the
waters tendency to form scale deposits or
prevent growth of microorganisms.
The normal maintenance program for
the unit should include periodic cleaning
of the tube side (water side) of the heat
exchanger to remove deposits that
enhance fouling and corrosion.
NOTICE!
The user is responsible for ensuring
adequate water quality and keeping the
heat exchanger clean. Heat exchanger
failure caused by plugging or corrosion
is not covered by warranty.

Air Filter
The standard QGV
air lter is a single

stage, dry type element attached to the
inlet valve. The lter media is pleated and
will stop particles of 10 microns in size.
This element is replaceable and should
not be cleaned. Service intervals of the
air lter element depends on ambient
conditions and should be established by
checking regular intervals until a pattern
for servicing is found. Daily maintenance
of the lter element is not uncommon in
dirty conditions. If dirty conditions exist,
it is advisable to relocate the intake air to
an outside source. Each time the lter is
serviced, inspect the ltered air side of
the air cleaner canister and the suction
manifold for dirt. If dirt is found, determine
the cause and correct. Always make
sure all gaskets, threaded connections,
ange connections, and hose connections
between the air lter and air compressor
are airtight. Dirty lters result in reduced
airow and can distort the element and
allow dirt to bypass the lter element.
To replace the air lter (less canopy):
1) Turn the compressor off by the main
tagout procedure.
2) Detach air hose from air filter box.
3) Remove air filter housing from air
filter box.
4) Remove air filter plate from air filter
housing.
5) Remove the old filter and replace
with a new one.
6) Reattach the air filter plate to the air
filter housing.
7) Reattach the air lter housing to the
air lter box.
8) Reattach the air hose.
To replace the air lter (with canopy):

4) Reattach the air filter plate to the air
filter housing.
NOTICE!
Intake filtration equipment supplied
from the factory may not be adequate
for extremely dirty applications or
some forms of dust or vapors. It is the
customers responsibility to provide
adequate filtration for those conditions.
Warranty will be voided if inadequate
filtration causes a failure.

QGV-20 thru 125 Separator Installation
Prior to installation, test the separator
element as follows:
1) Locate a continuity test light or a
volt-ohm-meter (v-o-m) capable of
reading 20 ohms.
2) Assure that the battery has proper
charge. Touch the probe leads
together to assure the light works or
to zero calibrate the meter.
3) Contact the grounding staple or
grounding spring clip with the
ground probe of the test indicator.
4) Touch the top cap of the separator
element with the other probe. The
indicator light should illuminate on
the test or the v-o-m test must read
no more than 20 ohms.
5) Touch the bottom cap of the
separator element. The indicator
light should illuminate on the test or
the v-o-m test must read no more
than 20 ohms.
6) Touch the outside wire mesh. The
7) Touch the inside wire mesh (do not
puncture the element media). The
8) If the separator element has a gasket
on each side of the ange, repeat
steps 3 through 7.
9) If the separator element fails any
of the above test , return it to your
Quincy Distributor for replacement.
10) Make sure the compressor is
bonded (wired) to an earth ground to
dissipate static electricity.
QGV-75 thru 200
The separator element is a one piece
construction that coalesces the uid mist,
passing through the ltering media, into
droplets that fall to the bottom of the
separator element to be picked up by
a scavenging tube and returned to the
compressor. Use care when handling
the separator element to prevent it from
being damaged. Denting may destroy the
effectiveness of the ltering media and
result in excessive uid carryover. Even
a very small hole punctured through the
element will result in a high uid carryover.
WARNING!
QGV-75 thru 200 horsepower: Do not remove
the metal clips from the separator element. Their
function is to prevent an electrostatic buildup
which could spark a fire. Use genuine Quincy
replacement separators.
NOTICE!

Table
Shaft Seal
Compressor shaft seals are wear
items that may eventually have to be
replaced. Special tools and a complete
understanding of the installation procedure
are required for a successful seal
replacement. Ask your Quincy distributor
for complete illustrated instructions
(available as a Service Alert) at the time
you order the seal and special tools, if you
decide to replace the seal yourself. If your
distributor does not have a copy of these
instructions, they can be ordered from
Quincy Compressor at no charge.
QGV compressors incorporate a uid
scavenge system to complement the use
of a triple lip seal assembly. Any complaint
of shaft seal leakage requires that the
scavenge system be inspected for proper
operation prior to the replacement of the
shaft seal. Proper inspection consists of
the following:
Assure that the scavenge line itself is
not plugged.
Inspect the performance of the
scavenge line check valve by removing
the piston located on the valve
attached to the inlet valve. Inspect
the o-rings and replace if required.
Remove the check ball and inspect for
wear. If the check valve is stuck open,
fluid can backflush from the airend into
the seal cavity and appear as a leak. If
the check valve is stuck closed the seal
cavity will not scavenge. Replace if
necessary.
Remove the coupling guards and
coupling halves
Remove the drive coupling hub and key
from the compressor shaft.
Remove the drive motor.
Remove the four bolts securing the seal
adapter to the suction housing.
Insert two of the seal adapter retaining
bolts into the seal adapter jack holes
and turn clockwise (pushing the seal
adapter away from the suction housing).
After the seal adapter outer o-ring has
cleared the seal adapter bore, remove
the adapter for inspection.
Disassemble the seal adapter as
follows:
a. With the face of the seal adapter up,
insert two small, at screwdrivers
under the outer lip of the uid slinger
and pop the slinger from the seal
adapter bore.
b. Using a brass drift, tap the shaft seal
assembly from the seal bore.
c. Inspect both seal lips for excessive
wear, lip aws or damage.
d. Inspect the outer o-ring on the uid
slinger for cuts or nicks.
e. Inspect the outer o-ring on the seal
adapter for cuts and nicks.
f. Slide the wear sleeve removal tool
over the end of the shaft and allow
the jaws of the tool to snap on the
backside of the wear sleeve. Tighten
the outer shell of the tool down over
the inner jaws.
g. Using a ratchet and socket, turn the
puller jack screw clockwise in against
the end of the compressor shaft to
remove the seal wear sleeve.
CAUTION!
Do Not use an impact wrench with this
tool.
Table
Preparation for New Seal Installation
Inspect the compressor shaft for burrs
or deep scratches at the wear sleeve
area. Using a 100-grit emery cloth,
lightly sand horizontally any rust or
Loctite on the shaft. Using a fine file
or emery cloth, deburr the key area of
the rotor shaft. Cover the keyway with
masking tape to prevent damage to the
new seal during installation.
Clean the seal adapter with fast drying
solvent. Assure that the scavenge drain
in the seal adapter is clean and open.
Place the outer face of the seal adapter
on a flat, hard surface.
Remove the new triple lip seal from the
package and inspect for damage or
imperfections on the seal lips.
Apply a thin coat of Loctite 290 to
the outer steel case of the seal and
position the seal in the seal adapter
bore.
Insert the proper seal driver over the
seal. Insert the proper wear sleeve
driver in the seal driver and tap the new
seal into the bore with a medium sized
hammer.
Preheat the wear sleeve (in a small
oven) to 350F. Do not preheat in
warm oil.
Apply a thin film of Loctite to the
inner diameter of the wear sleeve and
immediately install on the compressor
shaft using the proper wear sleeve
driver. Drive the wear sleeve on the
shaft until the driver bottoms on the
shaft shoulder.
Seal Installation
Apply a thin coat of compressor fluid to
the outer face of the wear sleeve and
seal lip.
Slide the proper seal installation sleeve
against the wear sleeve with the taper
toward the end of the rotor shaft.
Install a new o-ring on the seal adapter
and lubricate with compressor fluid.
Install a new o-ring around the
scavenge port (use petroleum jelly to
hold the o-ring on the seal adapter face
during installation).
Carefully slide the seal adapter with the
new seal installed over the end of the
rotor shaft and up against the adapter
bore.
Using care not to damage the o-ring,
evenly draw the adapter into the bore,
install the four retaining bolts and
tighten to the specified torque.
Remove the installation sleeve.
Apply a thin film of compressor fluid to
the o-ring and seal lip of the outer fluid
slinger.
Install the outer slinger over the end
of the rotor shaft and push into the
scavenge bore using both thumbs.
Reinstall drive motor, and coupling.
Reinstall the coupling guards before
starting the compressor.
Table
Fluid Specifications
The functions of the compressor uid are:
to lubricate the bearings and rotors.
to remove heat from the air as it is
being compressed thus lowering the

Lubrication
QGV models use pressure differential
to circulate the uid. Positive pressure
maintained in the reservoir forces uid
throughout the machine. Fluid is circulated
through the cooler, uid lter, and into the
compressor.
In the compressor, uid is diverted through
internal passages to ensure positive
lubrication of the bearings and shaft seal.
The remainder of the uid is injected at the
beginning stage of the compression cycle
to seal clearances and to cool and lubricate
the rotors.
Each Quincy compressor is lled at
the factory with the correct amount
of one of the synthetic uid listed in
the Fluid Specications. Mineral oil
can be requested and used in specic
applications. The use of other brands or
types of uid may reduce the design life
of the compressor or cause problems with
ltration or carryover. Consult the Quincy
Service Department before changing
brands of uid.
Fluid Sample Valve
QGV models are equipped with a uid
sample valve located at the discharge of
the uid lter.
Figure 6-1. Fluid Sample Valve
Fluid samples should be taken from the
sample valve while the compressor is
running at normal operating temperature
(see Sampling Procedures - page 87).
Table
Factors Affecting Fluid Life
To protect your investment, check for the
following, which can affect the long life of
QuinSyn:
1) High operating temperatures
2) Contaminants:
a. Other uids
b. Strong Oxidizers such as:
acids
sulfur
chlorine
burnt fuel -
i.e. exhaust from: forklifts,
boilers, jet aircraft
nitrogen oxides
ozone
welding fumes
plastic molding fumes
c. Ammonia
d. Solvent fumes:
chlorinated degreasers
ink solvents
e. Airborne dust and particles
f. Paper digester fumes
Locate your compressor in the coolest
area possible. For every 18F above
195F, the operating life of any uid
is reduced to about half that at 195F.
Some mineral oils begin to form varnish at
temperatures above 200F. QuinSyn uids
are more forgiving than mineral oil at high
temperatures. QuinSyn-XP is designed to
operate at sustained temperatures above
200F. The life of other QuinSyn uids will
be shortened at high temperatures.
Air intake should provide contaminant-
free, cool air. A Quincy heavy-duty intake
lter will reduce the risk of abrasion and
increased wear. An air lter does not
eliminate reactive gases. Inspect your lter
monthly and replace as required.
Fluid Analysis Program - General
Quincys uid analysis program is offered
to all customers using QuinSyn uids
in Quincy Compressor Rotary Screw
Compressors. This service provides
optimum drain intervals for compressors
operating on QuinSyn uids. Monitoring of
the total acid number (TAN), barium level
and/or viscosity throughout the life of the
uid provides maximum protection to your
machine, while best utilizing the extended
life features of QuinSyn.
The uid analysis provides historical
information, detailing items such as
hours on the uid, viscosity and total acid
number (TAN). Should results appear
unusual or suspicious, a detailed analysis
can pinpoint specic contaminants.
A detailed report is furnished to you,
your Quincy Distributor and the Quincy
Compressor factory upon completion of
the uid analysis.
Although QuinSyn uids are rated by hours
of life expectancy under normal operating
conditions, it is recommended that uid
samples be taken every 500 to 2000 hours
and sent to Quincy Compressor Fluid
Analysis until a history of performance
in a specic compressor application is
established. Once the appropriate drain
interval is established, the frequency of
the uid analysis can be reduced unless
operating conditions change.
The depletion of antioxidants, change of
viscosity, barium and acid levels all occur
with time. It is extremely important to
change QuinSyn before the antioxidants
are completely depleted. If the uid is left
in the compressor beyond its useful life,
removing all of the spent uid is difcult.
The oxidation products remaining can
considerably shorten the life of the new ll
of QuinSyn uid.
NOTICE!
All Quincy Compressor extended
airend warranty programs require
that fluid samples be sent to Quincy
Compressor Fluid Analysis a minimum
of every 2,000 hours.
Table

Applications
QuinSyn-Plus is suited for use in rotary
screw air compressors operating in
harsh service conditions where the uid
is exposed to higher temperatures for
extended periods of time. Fluid thermostat
temperature settings can be elevated to
assist in reducing water content in the
uid in high humidity applications. Please
consult Quincy Service Department for any
thermostat changes.
Disposal
QuinSyn-Plus is considered nonhazardous
waste. Disposal of this uid should be
done in accordance with Local, State, and
Federal regulations. Should condensate
need to be treated, Quincys QIOW uid/
water separators are required.
Fluid Analysis Program
QuinSyn-Plus uid is included in Quincys
uid analysis program.
Table
QuinSyn-XP
QuinSyn-XP is the factory ll for high
pressure units (units operating above
150 psig full ow). QuinSyn-XP is totally
compatible with QuinSyn-HP 68 (the uids
can be mixed together with absolutely no
problems). Aftermarket orders for QuinSyn-
HP 68 will be lled with QuinSyn-XP.
QuinSyn-XP is a custom blended
polyolester (POE) uid ideally suited for
rotary screw air compressors. QuinSyn-XP
is an ISO 68 viscosity uid with a 12,000
hour life at 100 & 125 psig full ow under
normal operating conditions and 8,000
hours as a high pressure uid (exact uid
life is determined by the uid sampling
program).
TYPICAL PROPERTIES OF QUINSYN-XP ISO 68
Applications
QuinSyn-XP is designed for applications
where the uid is exposed to elevated
temperatures for extended periods of time.
Fluid thermostat temperature settings
can be elevated to assist in reducing
water content in the uid in high humidity
applications. Consult Quincys Service
Department before making thermostat
changes.
Disposal
QuinSyn-XP is considered nonhazardous
done in accordance with Local, State, and
Federal regulations. Should condensate
need to be treated, Quincys QIOW uid/
water separators are required.
QuinSyn-XP will be analyzed similar to
QuinSyn although the primary concern is
the total acid number (TAN). Supplemental
on site TAN kits will be applicable to this
uid as well as QuinSyn-PG.
Table
QuinSyn-PG
QuinSyn-PG is a custom blended
polyalklene glycol/ester (PAG), ISO 46
viscosity uid with an 8,000 hour life under
normal operating conditions (exact uid
life is determined by the uid sampling
program).
TYPICAL PROPERTIES OF QUINSYN-PG ISO 46
Applications
QuinSyn-PG is best suited for applications
where high humidity exists and the
machine cannot be shut down to drain
water from the reservoir.
Disposal
QuinSyn-PG is considered nonhazardous
done in accordance with Local, State,
and Federal regulations. Separation of
this uid from condensate will require
those separators designed to handle
uid emulsions. The QIOW uid/water
separator is suitable for separation of uid
emulsions such as QuinSyn-PG. Please
contact Quincys Service Department for
more details.
The uid sampling for QuinSyn-PG has
been extended to 2,000 hours because of
the superior quality and forgiving nature of
this uid.
Primary concerns with this uid are the
total acid number (TAN) and barium levels.
QuinSyn-PG will not be condemned on
water percentage nor antioxidants but will
be condemned on low barium and high
TAN values. The barium in the uid acts as
a corrosion inhibitor, therefore low limits
have been set for this additive (see uid
parameters for limits).
Table
QuinSyn-F
QuinSyn-F is Quincys food grade uid,
suitable in applications where there may
be incidental food contact. Compliant with
FDA 21 CFR 178.3570 (Lubricants With
Incidental Food Contact), QuinSyn-F is
authorized by the USDA with an H-1 rating
for use in federally inspected meat and
poultry plants. Since the uid is viewed as
a possible indirect food additive, the limit
for food contact is 10 PPM. Near white in
color and low in volatility, QuinSyn-F is
ideal for clean service.
Fluid Life
QuinSyn-F provides an expected life
of 4,000 hours under normal operating
conditions.
Disposal
QuinSyn products are considered
nonhazardous under the OSHA Hazard
Communication Standard 21 CFR
1910.1200. They carry no hazardous labels
or warnings under that standard.

Table
F00395 Acceptance Test / Conrmation pending
Reaction: OFF 2
Cause: This fault occurs after a Powermodul (PM) / Control Unit (CU) Swap or a Startup Clone. It can also be
caused by a
faulty read from the EEPROM, see F0051 for more details.
The parameterset after a CU swap or a startup clone could have changed and might not match the application.
This parameterset needs to be checked before the drive can start a motor.
r0949 = 3/4: Swap of PM/CU
r0949 = 5: Startup Clone via MMC has been performed
r0949 = 10: Before the last power up an acceptance test was pending due to a swap or a startup

F00453 Motor Stalled
Reaction: OFF 2
Cause: In SLVC or VC (p1300 greater than 20) and Ramp rate too fast
In SLVC or VC (p1300 greater than 20) and done OFF2 and RUN onto a spinning motor without
Flying start enabled
In SLVC (p1300 = 20 or 21) and load too large at very low frequency
In SLVC or VC (p1300 greater than 20) and no motor connected or motor too small for inverter
In VC, the motor cable phase sequence (U-V-W) and the encoder cable wiring may be wired up
incorrectly.
The speed controller settings are not optimised to the application. This can cause instabilities.
Remedy: Reduce ramp rate in p1120
Enable ying start (p1200 equal to 1)
Increase boost in p1611
Connect motor or use larger motor for this inverter or use VF mode (p1300 less than 20).

Reaction: NONE
Cause: Overvoltage limit is reached. This warning can occur during ramp down, if the Vdc controller is disabled
Remedy: If this warning is displayed permanently, check drive input voltage.
A00503 UnderVoltage Limit
Reaction: NONE
Cause: Main supply failed
Main supply and consequently DC-link voltage (r0026) below specied limit.
Remedy: Check main supply voltage.
Table
A00504 Inverter OverTemperature
Reaction: NONE
Cause: Warning level of inverter heat sink temperature, warning level of chip junction temperature, or allowed
change in temperature on chip junction is exceeded, resulting in pulse frequency reduction and/or output
frequency reduction
(depending on parameterization in P0290).
Remedy: Note:
r0037 = 0: Heat sink temperature

current
dataset on next power cycle from Automatic Cloning at Startup.
Remedy: Remove MMC-PS from drive.
A00590 Encoder feedback loss warning
Reaction: NONE
Cause: Signal from Encoder lost; Inverter might have switched to sensorless vector control.
Check also alarm value r0947:
r0949 = 0: Encoder signal lost.
r0949 = 5: Encoder not congured in P0400, but required for sensored control (P1300 = 21 or 23).
Remedy: Stop inverter and then
Check encoder tted. If encoder tted and r0949 = 5, select encoder type via P0400.
If encoder tted and r0949 = 6, check connections between encoder module and inverter.
If encoder not tted and r0949 = 5, select SLVC mode (P1300 = 20 or 22).

Table
A00910 Vdc-max controller de-activated
Reaction: NONE
Cause: Occurs
if main supply voltage (P0210) is permanently too high.
if motor is driven by an active load, causing motor to goes into regenerative mode.
at very high load inertias, when ramping down.
Input voltage must lie within range.
Load must be match.
In certain cases apply braking resistor.
A00911 Vdc-max controller active
Reaction: NONE
Cause: Vdc max controller is active; so ramp-down times will be increased automatically to keep DC-link
voltage (r0026) within limits (P2172).
Supply voltage must lie within limits indicated on rating plate.
Ramp-down time (P1121) must match inertia of load.
Note: Higher inertia requires longer ramp times; otherwise, apply braking resistor.
A00912 Vdc-min Controller active
Reaction: NONE
Cause: Vdc min controller will be activated if DC-link voltage (r0026) falls below minimum level (P2172).
The kinetic energy of the motor is used to buffer the DC-link voltage, thus causing deceleration of the drive! So
short mains failures do not necessarily lead to an undervoltage trip.
A00921 AO parameters not set properly
Reaction: NONE
Cause: AO parameters (P0777 and P0779) should not be set to identical values, since this would produce
illogical results.
Parameter settings for output identical
Parameter settings for input identical
Parameter settings for output do not correspond to AO type
Set P0777 and P0779 to different values.
Table
A00923 Both JOG Left and JOG Right are requested

r0949 = 203: Tolerance too small (p9891 < p9890). Increase tolerance!
Remedy: Acknowledge fault and enter safety commissioning again. If not possible, leave the safety
commissioning with p3900 = 11 and operate the drive with the old safety settings.
Table
F01660 Wrong safety checksum
Cause: r0949 = 0: Attempt to leave safety commissioning with r9798 != p9799.
r0949 = 1: Attempt to leave safety commissioning with r9898 != p9899.
r0949 = 2: Attempt to leave safety commissioning with r9798 != r9898.
Remedy: Make sure that checksums in p9798 and p9898 are identical. If not, ensure that parametrisation is
identical (p96xx = p98xx).
Set checksum in p9799 or p9899 correctly.
If setting the checksums not successful, leave safety commissioning via p3900 = 11 (cancel
commissioning).
A01690 Safety parameter changed
Reaction: NONE
Cause: The warning indicates that at least one parameter has been changed in the safety commissioning or
safety reset.
Remedy: Finish safety commissioning by setting p3900 = 10 or p3900 = 11 or wait until safety reset is
complete.
A01691 SLS signal inconsistency
Reaction: NONE
Cause: Problem with the consistency of the safety input signals. The drive reduces the frequency according to
the settings of the SS1.
When zero frequency is reached, the passivated STO is entered and a drive fault is issued.
Remedy: Check consistency of safety input signals and acknowledge the following safe torque off due to a
drive fault.
A01692 Speed for SLS exceeded
Reaction: NONE
Cause: a) Output frequency when entering the SLS is higher than p9690 and p9692 is congured to trigger a
passivated STO with a drive fault.
b) Output frequency exceeds the SLS tolerance p9691.
In both cases, the frequency is reduced according to the settings for the SS1, then the passivated STO state is
entered and a fault is generated.
Remedy: ad a) Reduce speed before entering the SLS or change the setting in p9692.
ad b) increase the tolerance in p9691/p9891 compared to p9690/p9890.
In both cases the passivated STO will be entered once zero frequency is reached. Acknowledge the passivated
STO and the drive fault.
Table
A01696 Switch-on is inhibited
Reaction: NONE
Cause: Switching on of the drive not possible and the drive will therefore remain in the READY state (see
r0002).
Remedy: Check if a deactivated gate driver or the current safety mode (STO, SS1, SLS) is inhibiting the start.
Check the inhibit bit (r0052.6).
A01697 Wrong safety param. data
Reaction: NONE
Cause: Semaphore problem at startup. Cannot load last safety parameters. Loading default values instead.
Remedy: Restart drive (perform power cycle) to load correct safety data.
A01698 Safety commis./reset act
Reaction: NONE
Cause: The safety reset or the safety commissioning are currently active (selected via p0010 = 95).
Remedy: Finish commissioning with p3900 = 10 (accept changed) or p3900 = 11 (discard changes) or wait until
safety reset is complete.
A01699 Forced dynamis. required
Reaction: NONE
Cause: Dynamisation timer (see r9660) has expired. A new dynamisation test is required.
Remedy: Select and then de-select STO (p9601.bit1 and p9801.bit1 must be set).
Table
Addendum 1 - Shell/Tube Heat Exchanger Install and Service
Recommendations
Installation:
The satisfactory use of this heat exchanger equipment is dependant upon precautions
which must be taken at the time of the installation.
1. Connect and circulate the hot uid in the shell side (over small tubes) and the cooling
water in the tube side (inside the small tubes). Note piping diagrams.
2. If an automatic water regulating valve is used, place it on the INLET connection of
the cooler. Arrange the water outlet piping so that the exchanger remains ooded with
water, but at little or no pressure. The temperature probe is placed in the hydraulic
reservoir to sense a system temperature rise. Write the factory for water regulating valve
recommendations.
3. There are normally no restrictions as to how this cooler may be mounted. The only
limitation regarding the mounting of this equipment is the possibility of having to drain
either the water or the oil chambers after the cooler has been installed. Both uid drain
plugs should be located on the bottom of the cooler to accomplish the draining of the
uids. Drains are on most models.
4. It is possible to protect your cooler from high ow and pressure surges of hot uid by
installing a fast-acting relief valve in the inlet line to the cooler.
5. It is recommended that water strainers be installed ahead of this cooler when the
source of cooling water is from other than a municipal water supply. Dirt and debris can
plug the water passages very quickly, rendering the cooler ineffective. Write the factory
for water strainer recommendation.
6. Fixed bundle heat exchangers are generally not recommended for steam service.
For steam applications, a oating bundle exchanger is required. Note: When installing
oating bundle unit, secure one end rmly and opposite end loosely to allow bundle to
expand and contract. Consult factory for selection assistance.
7. Piping must be properly supported to prevent excess strain on the heat exchanger
ports. If excessive vibration is present, the use of shock absorbing mounts and exible
connectors is recommended.
Service:
Each heat exchanger has been cleaned at the factory and should not require further
treatment. It may be well to inspect the unit to be sure that dirt or foreign matter has
not entered the unit during shipment. The heat exchanger should be mounted rmly in
place with pipe connections tight.

Table
Addendum 1 - Shell/Tube Heat Exchanger Install and Service
Recommendations
CAUTION!
If sealant tape is used on pipe threads, the degree of resistance between mating parts
is less, and there is a greater chance for cracking the heat exchanger castings. Do not
over tighten. When storing the unit, be sure to keep the oil and water ports sealed.
If storage continues into cold winter months, the water chamber must be drained to
prevent damage by freezing.
Performance information should be noted and recorded on newly installed units so that
any reduction in effectiveness can be detected. Any loss in efciency can normally be
traced to an accumulation of oil sludge, or water scale.
Recommendations:
Replace gaskets when removing end castings. It is recommended that gaskets be
soaked in oil to prevent corrosion and ensure a tight seal.
Salt water should not be used in standard models. Use salt water in special models
having 90/10 copper-nickel tubes, tube sheets*, bronze bonnets and zinc anodes on
the tube side. Brackish water or other corrosive uids may require special materials of
construction.
When zinc anodes are used for a particular application, they should be inspected two
weeks after initial startup.
At this time, by visual inspection of the anode, determination of future inspection
intervals can be made, based on the actual corrosion rate of the zinc metal.
The zinc anodes must be replaced when 70% of the zinc volume has been consumed.
It may be necessary to drain the water chambers of the exchanger to protect it from
damage by freezing temperatures. Drains are provided in most standard models.
The oil chamber of the exchanger may become lled with sludge accumulation and
require cleaning. It is recommended that the unit be ooded with a commercial solvent
and left to soak for one-half hour. Back owing with the solvent or regular oil will remove
most sludge. Repeated soaking and back owing may be required, depending on the
degree of sludge build-up.
It may be necessary to clean the inside of the cooling tubes to remove any contamination
and/or scale build up. It is recommended that a fty-fty percent solution of inhibited
muriatic acid and water may be used. For severe problems, the use of a brush through
the tubes may be of some help. Be sure to use a soft bristled brush to prevent scouring
the tube surface causing accelerated corrosion. Upon completion of cleaning, be certain
that all chemicals are removed from the shell side and the tube side before the heat
exchanger is placed into service.
