9.2.1 The Compressed air generator is located in the Utility block.
9.2.2 The equipment is located such that, it can be attended easily for routine operational,
monitoring and maintenance purpose.
9.3 Description of operation
9.3.1 The non-lubricated air compressor draws air from atmosphere into the cylinder through
air cleaner during the downward stroke of the piston by means of an electrical motor.
The air is compressed on the upward stroke as two valves remain closed and air is
compressed to high pressure. At the end of the compression stroke the delivery valve
opens and air is delivered to a storage tank through cooler and dryer.
9.3.2 The compressed air is maintained at high pressure in the lines to the points of use.
Consequently there is possibility of liquid being carried over in to the plant air line. To
remove any condensed water affecting the operation of the pneumatic devices.

The air is compressed on the upward stroke as two valves remain closed and air is compressed to high pressure. At the end of the compression stroke the delivery valve opens and air is delivered to a storage tank through cooler and dryer. 9.3.2 The compressed air is maintained at high pressure in the lines to the points of use. Consequently there is possibility of liquid being carried over in to the plant air line. To remove any condensed water affecting the operation of the pneumatic devices.
