Operating Manual | Grasso Reciprocating compressors
PREFACE This operating manual is meant for the end-users of Grasso reciprocating compressors and/or packages. This manual describes all safety instructions, global product information, required periodical inspections and a trouble shooting list. The users of this equipment have to follow all instructions as given in this manual. In case of any doubt, the supplier of the refrigeration plant should be consulted. For safety instructions refer to Chapter 1, page 7. Hint! GEA Grasso herewith declares that the machines mentioned are intended to be incorporated into a refrigeration package (= assembly of refrigeration components) or to be assembled with other equipment to constitute machinery covered by Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC and do therefore comply with the provisions of this directive that apply to partly completed machines. Furthermore it is not allowed to put the machines mentioned into service until the machinery in which it is to be incorporated, or, of which it is to be a component, has been found and declared to be in compliance with the provisions of Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC i.e. as a whole system including the machinery referred to in this declaration.

SAFETY Caution!
REGULATIONS
In compliance with the regulations of the Pressure Equipment Directive it is mandatory that no changes be made to the construction of pressurised parts such as the crankcase housing, suction filter housing, oil separator(s), etc.
Hint! It is the task of the contractor (supplier) to inform and explain to you as user, about the operation of the compressor (Package). Do respect all international, federal, state and local safety regulations/ legislations during inspection, trouble shooting and operating this compressor (package).
1.2
After having run the initial 100 operating hours,it is essential (in both new and modified plants) to replace the running-in filter element with the permanent filter element supplied. This operation is only to be carried out by well-trained and qualified personnel. Consult your supplier to carry out this service.
MAINTENANCE AND REPAIRS Warning! All maintenance and repairs have to be carried out only by your contractor (supplier), except the maintenance as explicitly mentioned in this manual.
This manual includes a check list for daily, weekly and monthly inspections. Temperatures and pressures need to be checked at several point (eg setting of all pressure safety switches). In case this manual does not give these values then your contractor (supplier) should instruct you with regard to their correct setiings. When reference is made to the plant manual, your contractor (supplier) should take care that your are instructed in being able to undertake proper inspections and trouble shooting.
Do not open the compressor for service.
Hint! In case of shut downs longer than 1 month, it is advisable to put warning labels on vital parts of the compressor saying that the plant is out-of-operation and must not be started up. Consult your contractor (supplier).
1.3
REFRIGERANT
The compressor/package must be filled with “REFRIGERANT“, to be able to operate.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS PRESSURE EQUIPMENT Hint! For pressure equipment (oil separator OS, housing suction gas strainer, Economizer ICH, compressor package) manufactured by Grasso according to the European Parliament's and the European Council's Pressure Equipment Directive 97/23/EG of 29 May 1997
General The following operating instructions according to the European Pressure Equipment Directive No. 97/23/EG (subsequently referred to as PED) describe how to handle the pressure equipment for finishing and installation. The pressure equipment is intended for installation in compressor packages or refrigeration plants and can be equipped with specific accessories during installation by the customer.
If the type plate is covered by finishing/installation, make sure that the information can be seen by the end user on another location on the pressure equipment.In case of queries regarding the operating instructions, please contact Grasso.
1.5.1
Intended Use
The pressure equipment described here may not be used for any other than the stated purpose. The equipment may only be installed by the finisher/ installer and not by the end user. If the pressure equipment is not used according to these regulations, safe operation of the equipment is not guaranteed.
The pressure equipment has been manufactured according to the requirements of the PED. Its design meets the requirements of the AD2000 regulations.
The finisher/installer or the operator and not the manufacturer is responsible for all personal injury and damage to property resulting from unintended use.
If applicable the finisher/installer (at installation in compressor package or refrigeration plants and equipping ready for operation) is obliged to prepare his own risk analysis and operating manual according to the European Pressure Equipment Directive 97/23/EG.
When not installed by Grasso the finisher/installer has to properly install accessories for the pressure equipment. The pressure equipment may not be damaged during installation and it shall be painted after installation.

Operating Manual | Grasso Reciprocating compressors
The pressure equipment may only be filled with refrigerant of refrigerant groups L1 and L2, substance groups 1 and 2. The pressure equipment has to be installed in the compressor package or plant so that no vibrations or pulsations can be transmitted to the equipment.The connecting lines have to be installed to be tension free. The pressure equipment is not designed for dynamic loads.Where there is a risk of lightning strikes, the pressure equipment must be earthed. The finisher/installer has to include instructions for regular inspection of the pressure equipment in his instruction manual and has to define the end user's behaviour in case of damage. To avoid burns or frostbite, the pressure vessel may not be touched in the operating state. This can be achieved by means of contact guards. Install appropriate warning signs. Caution! Optionally supplied safety valves are only intended for the protection of the oil separator against excessive presssure caused by an external heat source during standstill. This device may not be used for the protection of the complete refrigeration system. (The finisher/installer has to equip the installation with a safety valve acc. EN 378)
for the new part). For recurring tests please refer to EN 378 T1 to T4 and local regulations.
1.5.3
Transport and Storage
Transport and store the oil separator in a dry environment. Ensure that the oil separator is not subject to damage relevant to its further use. In case of transport damage notify Grasso immediately.
1.5.4
Finishing and Installation
Design details can be seen in drawings at Grasso. Compare the identification (type plate) with the documentation included in the delivery before finishing, installing and equipping the oil separator. Mark the oil separator with the note 'Do not use' until the issue has been resolved with Grasso or an authorised third party (named authority according to the PED).
The oil separator may only be installed vertically. The foundation has to be of sufficient stiffness.
1.5.2
Safety Notes and Warnings
Visually inspect the pressure equipment with the naked eye for corrosion, scoring and similar damage. Check the equipment for shape consistency of the connection areas. In particular check and assess the sealing surfaces for possible damage such as scratches, scoring or similar. Keep corrosive substances such as acids away from the oil separator. Wall thicknesses may be no more than 1 mm less than those given in the drawing. Drain or suck off the medium (refrigerant/oil) prior to service and repair. These tasks may only be carried out by trained professionals and in compliance with the appropriate safety regulations, see standard EN 378. Carry out a detailed check of the previous operating history, when an oil separator that has already been in service is newly finished, installed and equipped. This includes visual inspection (as described above
