The compressor model HL120 is expected to be used to obtain maximum quality breathing
air, withdrawing it from surrounding environment, free of pollutants through an intake filter
and compressing it into tanks specially built to withstand high pressure air, after the filtration
process.
!
WARNING
! Only use tanks that have been hydrostatically tested. Do not over pressurize
the tanks. Pressurize only to working pressure, stamped on shoulder of the
tanks.
! Only use non polluted air. Use the compressor only in clean environments
ambients where there are not dust particles. Be certain NOT to use the
compressor where there is danger of an explosion, in corrosive environments
or fire hazard conditions.
! Any use different than the recommended purification filter cartridges and
lubricant can inflict serious physical injuries or dead to the user.

The HL120 is a unit that can be driven either with combustion or an electric motor.
Therefore, the term “Operator” used in paragraph 3.2 describes the following figures:
The person assigned to maintenance is the one who transports, installs, starts, regulates,
cleans and exchanges parts. This person must be qualified, must have had training and
specialty courses and must have the experience to transport, install, start and service units
operated with a pneumatic, electric or mechanical machine. The person assigned to the
machine must also be trained through a course taught by HOLUGT B/A SYSTEMS.
The person assigned to the unit operation is in charge of working on the machine; this
person must fill tanks, as indicated in paragraph 5.4, the command operations in paragraph 5
and to start the combustion engine, according to chapter No.5 and the manual of the engine.
It is prohibited that the person in charge of the operation of the machine performs any other
type of operation, but the ones indicated before or to operate in areas different than the one

CHAPTER 4 INSTALLATION
Personnel interested in installing the compressors must be qualified and have a proper
technical training and background so that they can perform the different operations with an
adequate competence.
§ 4.1 TRANSPORTATION
Personnel involved in installing the compressors must be qualified and have a proper
technical training and background so that they can perform the different operations with an
adequate competence.
It is very important to take care when lifting, transporting and locating the unit.
The HL120 compressor is shipped completely assembled and packed in cardboard boxes to
have it transported in a safe way. To take the unit out of its packaging: use an appropriate
system that allows to move a weight bigger than the one of the unit. The unit's weight is
shown on Chapter 2-TECHNICAL DATA. To lift the unit, after taking it out of the box, use the
handles M on the sides of the compressor as indicated on figure 07: It is not possible for one
person to lift the compressor by him self; it is necessary to have two people to lift it.
Personnel involved in positioning operations for the compressors, must have read accurately
this instruction manual and keep in mind all the warnings in it.
Ventilation is very important: to insure good cooling of the system, the place where the
compressor is must be well ventilated, with a proper circulation.
Position the compressor on a flat plane, with a maximum inclination of 5 degrees. This way,
lubrication of the unit is adequate. Make sure that the intake is located away from any source
of polluted air. To accomplish this, use the sectioned pipe and attach it to the compressor
filter as follows:
2. Screw the male ½" fitting to it. Then, attach tube No.2 [flexible, extended tube,
which is 20 mm internal diameter. Mount the filter back in place.[paragraph 6.6]
3. Locate the unit in a well ventilated area, away from atmospheric phenomena and
make sure what the wind direction is, in order to position the intake filter
adequately. See Figure 08.
Make sure that the electrical install is in accordance with the safety regulations, especially
CEI 64-8 [IEC 364]. The electrical install must be adequate to support the maximum pull for
the unit and the same as the reported value on the electric panel. The electric cable must of
the appropriate gauge to stand the installed power.
Check to make sure that the feed lines are compatible with the ones for the
machine. Check values on the electric panel.
When making the electric connections, it is a good idea to keep in mind the general rules for
installation and preparation of electric hook-ups. See: Rule CEI 64-8 [IEC364]
The unit is assembled with a hook CEE 16A either single or three phases. For
incoming electrical tension, please check the date on the electric motor plate.
Make sure that the cooling fan is rotating in the right direction. It is depicted on the fan
shroud. To change the fan's sense of rotation, on a three phase motor, simply switch
two of the three legs and hook them up to the incoming power line. This must be done
after isolating the unit, unplugging the unit from the incoming power. Incoming
section means the electric cord the unit comes with.
Be extremely cautious about grounding the unit. It must be in accordance with rule CEI 64-8
[IEC364]
When starting the compressor, be very careful about residual hazards mentioned in
paragraph 3.4.2. The following list describes them.
CAUTION
Be extremely careful about the possibility of mixture of compressed air with combustion
gases or oil vapor the intake.
CAUTION
Electrical hazard. Operate the unit with proper electric protection, especially if there is
moisture of water.
CAUTION
Follow the instructions manual to operate the combustion engine. Improper use of
combustion engine may result in a hazardous situation. Make sure to read the attached
engine manual prior to start the unit.
CAUTION
The exhaust area is a hot area. Use proper protection while operating the unit, since there is
danger of physical damage [burning]. Wait about 30 minutes after stopping the unit to
perform any maintenance on it.
! IMPORTANT !
In the event of any electric problem, stop the unit using the switch identified with O-L, unplug
the compressor from the incoming power and get assistance from the appropriate personnel.
For combustion operated units, stop the compressor using the kill switch; turn it to the Off [O]
position. [see attached manual].
! IMPORTANT !
Personnel assigned to unit maintenance must limit themselves to the tasks identified on
paragraph 3.4 and limit their own movement around the machine to the area identified with
an X in figure 03. Any person assigned to work or operate the machine must have read and
understood this manual prior to operate the machine, especially Warnings.
The air surrounding the compressor must be free of toxic substances. Air enters the
compressor through the intake filter. It goes to the first stage intake valve, and the first stage
of compression starts. The air flow produced by the cooling fan dissipates some of the heat
produced during the compression period on the head block, valves, pistons, cylinders and
lubricating oil. The rest of the heat is dissipated in the cooling tubes that connect the different
compression stages.
The compressed air’s temperature is only a few degrees hotter than the ambient
temperature. The working temperature for each stage is as following: intake cylinder: 60 to
68 degrees F over ambient temperature (it must be cool on touch). At the discharge valve,
about 176 to 232 degrees F. The intake air has a certain percentage of moisture, varying
according to atmospheric conditions. During the compression and process and following
cooling, moisture condenses and forms, along with small oil particles, white milky substance
– like emulsion that participates in the separator.
The crankcase is made of aluminum alloy. The flanges (crankcase covers) have ball
bearings that support the crankshaft and are sealed by means of O-Rings.
The crankshaft and the connecting rods rotate exclusively on pin or ball bearings.
All the rods are mounted on the crankshaft with an unique angle. The first and second stage
pistons are made of aluminum and have traditional piston rings. The third stage pistons are
made of a special steel with three Teflon piston rings. The fourth stage piston is made of
tempered steel stabilized without elastic rings, coupled with its sleeve following an individual
matching process.
§ 5.2.2 VALVES
The first stage valves are screwed in place: they have been threaded into the head itself.
The second, third and fourth stage valves lay under the heads and can be removed by
simply removing the heads.
Safety valves are pre-set upon compressor assembly and their function is to avoid an over
pressurization in the event of a malfunction. The pressure at which the valve is set off is
either 3300 psi or 4400 psi.
Do not tamper with safety valves. Doing so may result in serious damage to the unit
and cancels the warranty.
The cooling tubes are made of stainless steel. The compressor is splash lubricated. There’s
a scoop on the lower end of the second stage connecting rod that picks up the oil and
distributes it.
The compressor is mounted on a welded frame that is then painted with epoxy and is
prepared for the different motors. The cooling fan and drive belt are protected by a steel
shroud with a welded steel mesh.
CAUTION
Personnel not assigned to compressor related tasks must stand away from he compressor at
least 10 feet
CAUTION
Fill only tanks hydrostatically tested and current with it. Do not fill further than the working
pressure, stamped on tank shoulder
CAUTION
Operate only with clean, non polluted air: do not use the compressor in dust-filled areas or
where there is corrosion, fire or explosion
CAUTION
Make sure to have the air intake away from combustion engines exhaust fumes.
CAUTION
Do not use the compressor to compress gases different than air, failure to do so can cause
severe damage to operator.
! IMPORTANT !
Do NOT immerse the tanks in cold water for additional cooling during the filling process. This
may result in the forming of permanent water droplets in the tank. This condensate can harm
the user of the air severely.
! IMPORTANT !
! IMPORTANT !
Check the accuracy of the safety valve, closing the final valves, he final valves, causing the
pressure to raise in the system and activating the safety valve.
! IMPORTANT !
During the filling process, bleed the drain valves every 15-20 min to drain the condensate
from the separators ( see figure 05, no. 15 ) the emulsion formed by oil-water is normal. The
amount of condensate will vary according to atmospheric water contents. Leave the
condensate valve open and the compressor operating before and after a tank filling session
to eliminate excess of water
! IMPORTANT !
Operators must be very careful not to get hair or parts of their clothing tangled up in
compressor moving parts. It is recommended to wear hair caps or nets for long hair.
Do not wear chains, bracelets or rings when operating the units. Compressor operators must
wear appropriate personal protection equipment.
DIN CONNECTOR
INTER(NATIONAL) CONNECTOR
please read the attached manual for combustion engine for model HL110 B (petrol)
to stop the unit (model HL120 E), move the ON/OFF switch to the OFF position. Then drain
the condensate by means of the drain valves on the base of the unit. Check the oil level and
follow the indications given in chapter 6.
§ 5.6 EMERGENCIES
CAUTION
After any emergency stops, make sure the source of the problem has been eliminated before
attempting operating the unit again.
CHAPTER 6 MAINTENANCE
Before attempting any maintenance procedure, read the instruction manuals, for the
compressor and combustion engine. Maintenance work should be performed only by
personnel assigned to maintenance, therefore, trained and competent personnel.
For any maintenance work, either regular or extraordinary, HOLUGT B/A SYSTEMS can be
of assistance. Failure to follow safety instructions can result in damage to the operator, the
environment and/or the unit itself.
! WARNING !
Make sure to stop the unit before any attempt to perform maintenance work on the
compressor. Have the unit in a position such that it cannot be started without the
operators consent.
This way, there is no chance of an accidental compressor strat-up while the unit is
being worked on.
Any maintenance procedure has to be performed with the unit in the off position, and
unplugged from the outlet (electric version). Gasoline or diesel units have to be turned
off.
Operators must be careful about the risk of clothing parts or hair entanglement on any
of the moving parts of the unit. Be also very careful about rings, chains and bracelets.
There are tags on the electric motor, warning about high tension hazard. Follow the
scheduled maintenance procedures for the electric motor.
Do not replace compressor parts with any parts different than original HOLUGT B/A
SYSTEMS parts.
After completing any maintenance in the compressor. Make sure that all the old parts have
been removed from the unit, before attempting operating the compressor. Make sure all the
warning tags are on the compressor and are readable.
When servicing the pump itself, be very careful not to let any strange objects to get in the
unit, since it can cause malfunction or affect the safety devices on the unit.
Avoid performing any maintenance procedures on the unit with bare hands.
There could be instances when the technician has to perform a check-up of the unit with the
compressor operating.
In this specific case, instructions have to be imparted in order to ensure the following:
! WARNING !
The operator assigned to the unit and the person assigned to maintenance must be in
one another’s sight, in order for communication to be clear and easy.

HOURS DESCRIPTION
1/5 Check the heads: intake side of the head must be cool and the compression side
must be very hot.
5 Change oil ( see paragraph 6.3)
25 Service the intake filter ( see paragraph 6.6)
30 Check drive belt tension ( see paragraph 6.5)
Check tightness of cooling fan and shroud screws.
50
Change filter cartridges (see paragraph 6.8)
§ 6.2 TROUBLESHOOTING
Check oil level everyday, before starting the compressor. Oil level must be between the
maximum and minimum marks on oil dipstick. See No. 1, figure 12.
Oil level too low prevents good lubrication on compressor and will cause piston seizing.
Change oil after the first 50 hours as a break-in practice. Then change oil every 50 hours or
every year, whatever comes first. Do not mix to different types of oil.
Procedure:
The safety valve protects the final stage and tanks from an excessive over-pressurization. It
is set at the factory.
The safety valve must be checked with every tank fill. Connect filler valve to tanks valve.
Start the compressor with closed tank valve.
Make sure the valve is being set at the right pressure. Use pressure gauge to ensure correct
operation. Open tank valve and start fill. In the event of noticing the safety valve not
operating at pressure. Contact HOLUGT B/A SYSTEMS’ technical department.
Make sure there is enough room between pulleys and shroud to avoid contact with the drive
belt during compressor operation due to stretching after 30 hours. The belt flex should not be
more than ¼” when applying a force of 10 to the mid of the belt, as shown in Figure 13.
Check intake filter every 25 hours of operation. To clean the filter element, blow air from the
inside. Replace it every 100 hours of operation as following:
Replace filter cartridge before getting bad air. Air quality depends mainly on cartridge
condition. Therefore, it is very important to strictly follow to the suggested intervals.
Replacement intervals are calculated taking into consideration compressor use and intake air
temperature at 68 degrees F. If temperature is different, use the following table to calculate
the filter coefficients:
Number of 72 ft³
or 10 L. tanks to volume of Filtre
Model be filled air maximum
3000 psi / 200b. 4400 psi / 300b. m³ hours
HL 120 150 100 300 50
! IMPORTANT !
Service the filter only if the chamber is depressurized and the compressor is off. Make sure
the O-rings are OK. Replace if necessary. (See figure 15, No 3). Leave the filter cartridge
inside of the filter chamber while the compressor is not in use. Maintain a pressure of 600-
1000 psi or 40 -70 bar inside the filter to prevent moisture from getting in the filter housing.
1) Unscrew cap No. 1 in figure 15, using a screwdriver or a lever between the
studs on the cap.
2) Remove the cartridge (No.2). replace it with a new cartridge.
3) Check the o-rings on the filter cap (see figure, No.3)
4) Screw the cap back in place.
Valves can be disassembled for maintenance. The valve seats can be polished carefully by
means of non flammable liquids, soft brushes (bronze or nylon). Avoid using steel brushes or
screwdrivers. Valve service must be preformed every 100 working hours. Replace valves if
necessary.
Proper cleaning of the prevents formation of the unit prevents formation of residues that may
damage electrical or mechanical components. Clean the unit at least once a month.
If you are planning to stop the unit for long periods of time, remove filter housing. Operate the
compressor with open valves to ensure complete drainage of all condensate. Stop the
compressor, remove intake filter, re-start the compressor internal parts with a subtle layer of
lubricant. Stop the compressor. Re-install intake filter. Clean outside of compressor, making
sure to eliminate dust and any salt and/or oil deposits. Store the compressor in a clean and
dry area, away from moisture or dirty environments.
Safety devices have to be checked at least once a month and every time the unit is serviced.
See paragraph 3.4.1 for safety devices list. Make sure they are all in working order and on
the machine.
Check the effectiveness of safety devices by interrupting the incoming power for a
short period of time. This should cause the machine to enter the “emergency mode”.
After an emergency situation, the compressor should not be easily started unless the cause
for it stop has been eliminated.
Check the separate combustion engine manual about emergency situations and procedures.
For petrol engines: see the separate manual that comes with compressor.
