1 Introduction 1.1 Purpose Sperre has produced this manual to provide information for all users of the compressor equipment. This includes information about the compressor‟s construction and operation, as well as basic information regarding inspection and maintenance. It is important that operators familiarize themselves with the contents of this instruction manual, to ensure that use and maintenance work are carried out in the correct and safe manner from the outset.

Note Please note that all pictures and drawings in this manual are for illustration only.

The maintenance intervals and individual technical data are average values based on experience, and may vary depending on the compressor‟s operational parameters. The supplier accepts no responsibility for damage resulting from careless operation or inadequate maintenance. Keep the compressor in good mechanical condition, and remember that preventive maintenance of the equipment reduces the danger of damage and unnecessary operational interruptions. Sperre reserves the right to modify details without prior warning.

2 Personal safety Please make yourself familiar with the content in this user manual before operating the compressor. It is the responsibility of the user to ensure that appropriate controls and precautions are identified and applied in relation to the work envisaged by this document in accordance with relevant statutory, legal and industry requirements to protect the health and safety of the persons undertaking the work. All operation and service of the compressor is to be carried out by personnel who are familiar with the contents of this manual. The compressor is a high pressure machine that must only be used to compress air. Unauthorized remodelling or modification of the compressor may result in a safety hazard, and is not permitted. The compressor must never be operated without cover: the high temperature machine with rotating parts pose a great risk for the crew. Before any form of work is commenced on the compressor, the electrical power must be turned off at the starter panel and at the main switchboard, and the switch on the main switchboard must be marked with a notice indicating that repair work is in progress. The manual valve between the compressor and the air receiver must be closed, and the pressure must be released in all pressurized parts of the compressor. The safety valves for LP air, HP air, cooling water and any other safety equipments must be inspected regularly. Damaged components should be replaced with new, original parts. Please note that all safety valves are security sealed and any adjustment of these valves is not recommended. The compressor must never be used if the safety equipment is defective.

3 System description 3.1 X-range compressor

The X-range compressor is a two stage, two cylinder compressor. The radial fan [a] feeds fresh new ambient air to the inlet air filter [b] and further to the LP valve [c]. After first stage of compression the air is carried through the LP cooler [d] and further to the HP side of the compressor [e]. After last stage of compression the air is carried through the HP cooler [f] further through the cyclone separator [g] before the pressurized air is delivered to the air receiver.

X-cover The robust steel cover protects the operator from hot surfaces and moving parts, the cover also protects the components and minimizes potential damage during transport and installation. The radial fan and the distinctive shape of the cover are specially designed to work together. The radial fan builds up cooling air pressure, and the cover directs the flow of cooling air in the optimal direction, ensuring that every component gets optimized cooling air.

NOTE: The compressor must never be operated without cover: the high temperature machine with rotating parts pose a great risk for the crew and the compressor will overheat without cover.

Cyclone separator The high pressure cyclone ensures virtually water-free air, for XA and XW. The effective cyclone separator removes at least 80% of remaining water droplets at 30 barg. It is equipped with an integrated non-return valve on the HP side. The compressor has one automatic solenoid valve on HP side, for combined draining and unloading functions.

Splash lubrication system The splash lubrication system is a closed system. Extensive testing and simulation prove that this is an efficient and cost-effective solution. The closed air breathing system ensures no oil mist to the environment:  Takes up oil mist from crankcase [a].  Condensed in the oil separator [b].  Most of the oil mist is condensed and led back into the oil sump [c].  The remaining oil mist is led into the intake air [d].

X-drive The X-drive solution results in substantial benefits. The flywheel function is integrated in rotating components. Flexible but torsion-proof coupling, combined with the directly flanged electric motor, eliminates the need for alignment between the electric motor and the compressor. Torsion-proof coupling makes it possible for the moving parts in the electric motor to function as the flywheel. The new coupling principle without wear parts ensures greater operational reliability. The configuration with the counterweight provides optimal balancing. The result is a solution which is compact, easy to assemble and easy to maintain.

3.2 X-control

The X-control provides a complete package of easy-to-use control and monitoring functions in one standard, configurable module.

The controller is installed with a full graphic display with multiple languages. The display shows: 

Start counter and running hours,



Instant readout of status information,



Logging of alarms and service history.



And more ...

The X-control simplifies preventive maintenance with an easy to read service countdown so there is no need to remove the cover of the compressor to find out if maintenance necessary. If any blackout on board occurs, the compressor restart is automatically delayed to avoid power failure. Items that an operator may need to view during routine operation, for example; pressure or temperature can easily be read from the display. If a fault condition is active, the display will show a fault code and identification.

Fault, warning and alarm The controller will indicate if a fault, warning or alarm condition occurs in the system. The different fault state conditions will be displayed with specific codes. The active fault code becomes an additional item on the display until the fault condition is resolved and reset. Each fault type is identified symbolically and each fault code is unique. Each code character gives you specific information regarding the fault condition, as described below: a.

The first letter and number of the code indicates the fault type.

b.

The second number indicates the input location number.

c.

The third number indicates the input number.

d.

The last number indicates the fault description number.

A fault condition is a detected abnormality that must be indicated to operator personnel. It may require controller automated safety action, depending on fault type and definition. The fault, warning and alarm conditions that can be displayed are:

Start inhabit fault (Code S): A start inhibit fault is a condition that may present a danger or cause damage to the compressor if started whilst the condition is present. Start inhibit faults are only triggered if a compressor start from the “ready to start” condition is attempted. Start inhibit faults are not triggered during an automated motor start sequence from the standby condition. Start inhibit faults are self-resetting. A start inhibit fault code (S) is displayed when triggered but is not recorded in the fault log.

Alarm fault (Code A): An alarm fault is a warning condition that does not present an immediate danger or potential damage to the compressor. Alarm states will not shutdown the compressor or affect normal operation. An alarm fault code (A) is displayed and must be manually reset to clear once the condition has been resolved or no longer exists.

Shutdown fault (Code E): A shutdown fault is a condition that may present danger or potential damage to the compressor if the condition persists. A shutdown fault will cause the controller to stop the compressor. A shutdown fault code (E) is displayed that must be manually reset to clear once the condition has been resolved or no longer exists.

Service warning (Code SW) / Service alarm (Code SA): A service warning or alarm fault is a warning condition that does not present an immediate danger or potential damage to the compressor. A service warning or alarm state will not shutdown the compressor or affect normal operation. A service warning fault code (SW) is displayed and must be manually reset. If a service alarm fault code (SA) is displayed it must be manually reset by entering an ID-number, or simply by entering to clear once the service condition has been resolved or no longer exists. However, if a service alarm is triggered before its related service warning has been reset, the warning will be reset by the alarm. See P04 Service alarm reset menu for further details.

6 Installation and Operation 6.1 Installation All deliveries of compressor installations are accompanied by documentation of the installation‟s dimensions and mounting points. The documentation will also include installation instructions, illustrating the recommended assembly of equipment and pipe connections. To achieve problem-free operation, it is important that the base-plate is sufficiently rigid and free from vibrations caused by other machinery. The base of the compressor must lie flat on the base-plate.

Note Please refer to the General Arrangement and Installation drawings for specific details.

The normal ambient air temperature is 20-45°C and must not exceed 55°C. Warm intake air increases the risk of coking. Transmitters and solenoid valves must not be exposed to temperatures above 80 °C. The cooling water pipes must be installed correctly to avoid air pockets. The compressed air outlet temperature should be approximately 15-30°C above cooling water inlet temperature. Adjust cooling water flow (l/min) to achieve this temperature difference. The compressor installation must not be closely surrounded by other equipment, which could inhibit maintenance performances. The recommended maintenance space on all sides is 600 mm. This manual includes instructions for handling of the compressor after installation. It is important that the instructions are followed carefully to avoid problems during commissioning and further use of the compressor.

ISC installation ISC:

Warning Wire polarity is important.

Use 2-wire, 0.3-0.5mm2, twisted pair earth shielded data cable with a total system network length no greater than 1.0km (3280ft). Data cable terminal connections vary.

Consult the manuals and drawings for details before installing the ISC communication between the compressors. RS485 data communications and other low voltage signals may be subject to electrical interference. This potential can result in intermittent malfunction or anomaly that is difficult to diagnose. To avoid this possibility always:  Use earth shielded cables, securely bonded to a known good earth at one end. In addition, give careful consideration to cable routing during installation.  Never route an RS485 data communications or low voltage signal cable alongside a high voltage or 3-phase power supply cable. If it is necessary to cross the path of a power supply cable(s), always cross at a right angle.  If it is necessary to follow the route of power supply cables for a short distance (for example: from a compressor to a wall along a suspended cable tray) attach the RS485 or signal cable on the outside of an earthed cable tray so that the cable tray forms an earthed electrical interference shield. Where possible, never route an RS485 or signal cable near to equipment or devices that may be a source of electrical interference (for example: 3-phase power supply transformer, high voltage switchgear unit, frequency inverter drive module, radio communications antenna).

6.2 Before and after operation Before operation The Sperre compressor sensors and starter are real-time tested in our test facilities before delivery from the factory. Before initial start-up, and after long periods out of use, the following operations need to be carried out in the sequence given: 1. Check the oil level (sight glass). 2. If the compressor has been out of service for more than 6 months, lubricate the valves, cylinder walls and crank bearings. 3. Turn the compressor shaft a few revolutions, by turning the fan. 4. Open valves on the air discharge line between the compressor and the receiver. 5. Ensure that power is available and that the electrical plug-in cables are fitted properly. 6. Turn the power switch to the “on” position. When power is switched on, all display elements and LED indicators will be switched on for three seconds. The display will then show the software version code for a further 3 seconds before starting-up is completed and the normal operating display will show.

Note If the X-control is not centralized with the ships central alarm system, the controller needs daily inspection to observe fault, warning or alarm conditions.

The display will be switched on, and “ready to start” will be displayed if no alarms or shutdowns are active. 7. Start the compressor, by pressing the green start button (if not in standby mode). The compressor is now in active condition ready to respond to changes in delivery pressure. The Sperre compressors are designed to maintain safe operation with a minimum of maintenance. The operation procedures for the different modes are described on the following pages.

Preservation If the compressor is to remain unused for a long period, lubricate the valves and cylinder walls with oil. The compressor must be started from time to time: please refer to procedure “before operation”. The following precautions must be taken when storing the compressor: 1. Store in a dry place with the lowest possible relative humidity. 2. Shut off the cooling water circulation. 3. Coat relevant surfaces, especially unpainted surfaces, with rust inhibiting oil or similar. 4. Turn the compressor shaft a few revolutions, by turning the fan, once a month. 5. For storing longer than six months, lubricate all valves and cylinder walls with corrosion inhibiting oil. Clean and check before starting up.

6.3 General operation This chapter provides important information regarding normal, ISC and emergency operation of the compressor. Before operating the equipment, please refer to Chapter 2 for the personal safety instructions.

Warning If any malfunction, warning or alarm is detected during operation, the malfunction must be given immediate attention.

The compressor can be set to two different normal operating modes:  Semi-automatic mode S>  Full-automatic mode F> In the semi-automatic mode of operation, the operator is in command of when the compressor runs. In full-automatic mode, the delivery pressure controls the start and stop of the compressor once the operator has started the compressor. The operator can also choose to start the compressor in two different test modes:  Test mode TS  Test mode TD When exiting the test mode, the compressor will automatically return to the normal set mode S> or F>. The compressor can also be remotely started and stopped.

Semi-automatic mode S> Semi automatic is a mode of operation in which the operator controls compressor start and the delivery pressure controls stop operation. After the compressor has stopped the operator have to manually start the compressor again. Start: 1. Press the start button to start the compressor The compressor will achieve the set unload pressure and then stop. When the operator presses the start button again, and the pressure is above the load level, the controller will hold and wait for the pressure to fall before automatically starting the compressor; if the pressure is below the load level the compressor is started immediately and the pressure will rise. When the unload pressure level is achieved the compressor will stop. The compressor will only start again if the operator presses the start button. The green LED indicator will appear as a slow flash to indicate semi standby, and that the compressor can be started again at any time. The compressor will only start again if the operator presses the start button. Stop: 1. Press the stop button. The operator can stop the compressor at any time. www.sperre.com

Operation Manual XA150 Version 02

24

Full automatic mode F> Fully automatic is a mode of operation in which the delivery pressure controls compressor start and stop operation once the operator has started the compressor. Start:

Warning

1. Press the start button to start the compressor If the pressure is below the load level the compressor is started and the pressure will begin to rise. When the unload pressure level is achieved, the compressor will stop and the compressor will remain active in a standby condition.

In automatic mode, the compressor will automatically start.

The compressor will automatically start again when the delivery pressure falls below the load pressure level. This cycle will continue until the compressor is stopped by pressing the stop button. When the delivery pressure is below the unload level, but above the load level, the compressor can be started again immediately by pressing the start button. This will cause the compressor to start and increase pressure to the unload level, without the need to wait for pressure to decrease to the load level. The green LED indicator will appear as a slow flash to indicate fully standby, and that the compressor may start running at any time. Stop: 1. Press the stop button, to exit fully automatic operation, and stop the compressor.

Remote modes For remote operation the remote digital input start source and load source must be manually set to remote digital input on the controller, as described in the following procedure:

Note

 Start source (SS) setting: 0 = keypad, 1 = network, 2 = remote digital input. This is the remote function replacing the start / stop buttons on the local control panel, for optional start operating. The signal, if closed, set the compressor in started condition and will start the compressor if it is ready to start. The signal, if open, will set the compressor in stopped condition. The remote start / stop function must be set in X-control user setting menu P01 – item SS = 2 (remote digital input). Default is SS = 0 (local start / stop button).

Please note that a push button with return cannot be used for remote operating. Only a switch or a push button with locked positions can be used.

 Load source (LS) setting: 0 = pressure transmitter, 1 = network, 2 = remote digital input. This is the remote function replacing the local receiver pressure transmitter, for optional remote pressure control. If the pressure transmitter on the receiver is not being used for this purpose (local control), a digital remote signal from vessel automation system can be used for this purpose. Closed signal contact for start / loading condition and open signal contact for stop / unloading condition / stand by. The remote function must be set in Xcontrol user setting menu P01 – item LS = 2 (remote digital input). Default is LS = 0 (receiver pressure transmitter). Setting start source: 1. Press the menu button

Setting load source: 1. Use the same procedure to set to the Load source LS. 2. The controller is now set to remote operation only, but the stop function will always be available locally. Remote start: When the remote start/stop function is enabled in X-control user setting menu P01, the compressor will execute a normal start sequence when the remote start/stop input changes state from open to closed circuit. If closed, the remote start/stop input must be opened and closed again to initiate a new remote start sequence. Local controller start function is inhibited. When the delivery pressure is below the unload level, but above the load level, the compressor can be started again immediately by switching the remote signal contact of an on again within one second. This will cause the compressor to start and increase pressure to the unload level, without the need to wait for pressure to decrease to the load level. Remote stop: When the remote start/stop function is enabled in the X-control operation menu P01, the compressor will execute a controlled stop, as if the control panel stop button had been pressed, when the remote start/stop input is open circuit. Local control panel stop will still be available.

6.4 Internal system control (ISC) The controller is equipped with a function that will enable pressure control regulation and sequence management. This feature can be used to create an air compressor system, of up to 8 compressors, operating coherently to a single pressure target with automated timed sequence rotation. The ISC‟s control strategy consists of two sub-strategies: 1. The compressor „Rotation‟ strategy 2. The compressor load „Control‟ strategy The rotation strategy defines how the compressors are re-arranged, or re-ordered, into a new sequence at each routine „Rotation‟ event. Rotation events are triggered by a cyclic interval timer. The compressor load „Control‟ strategy defines how the compressors are utilized in response to variations in system pressure. Each compressor in a system is initially assigned to the ISC with a fixed and unchanging number reference, 1 to 8. The „duty‟ that a compressor is assigned in any set „Rotation‟ sequence arrangement is defined by a letter, A to H: A = the „Duty‟ compressor, the first to be utilized. B = the „Standby‟ compressor, the second to be utilized. C = the „Second Standby‟ compressor, the third to be utilized. D = the „Third Standby‟ compressor, the forth to be utilized, and so on. The primary function of rotation is to efficiently operate a compressed air system consisting of fixed capacity output compressors. The routine rotation assignments can be modified using „Priority‟ settings to accommodate for a differentially sized, preferred or nonpreferred compressor(s). Rotation: 1

Each time the set rotation interval elapses a sequence rotation occurs and the sequence assignment for each compressor is re-arranged. The compressor that was assigned for duty (A) is re-assigned as last standby (D) and all other compressor assignments are incremented by one

Control: The compressors are utilized, in response to changing demand, using a „FILO‟ (First In, Last Out) strategy. The „duty‟ compressor (A) is utilized first followed by (B) if demand is greater than the output capacity of (A). As demand increases (C) is utilized followed by (D) if demand increases further. As demand is reduced (D) is the first compressor to be unloaded, followed by (C) and then (B) if demand continues to fall. The last compressor to be unloaded, if demand reduces significantly, is (A). The compressor assigned as (A) in the sequence is the first to be loaded and the last to be unloaded
