XC 1004 Controller Functionality

Air/Oil Separator

Air and oil separation is achieved through a centrifugal compressor oil separator with a spin on type filter element for easy maintenance. Separators are ASME/CRN approved versions and are stamped accordingly.

The separator is equipped with a sealed high-pressure safety relief valve, sonic nozzle, automatic blow-down valve, and pressure regulator.

Easy to service in less than one hour, no special tools required, and up to 1,500 hour or 2 years compressor service interval.

Volume 4.76 US Gal / 18 L
Certifications ASME / CRN
MAWP 261 psi @ 248°F

Cooling System

The cooling system consists of integrated side-by-side aluminum oil cooler with axial fan to ensure optimum cooling. A guard for operator safety protects the fan and has an access port on both sides of the fan box for easy cleaning.

The cooling system is suitably designed for continuous operation in ambient conditions up to 122°F, with the canopy closed

Compressor Regulating System

Consists of air receiver/oil separator, compressor element, blow down valve, and pressure safety valve.

Economic power consumption is assured by the fully automatic 100% step-less speed regulator that adapts engine speed to air demand.

Discharge Outlets

Compressed air is available from 2 x 3/4” outlet valves, with claw type (Chicago) coupling.

Storage Compartment

The compressor has a built in open top toolbox compartment. Toolbox dimension is: 34’L x 7.4” W x 11” H.

Safety Features

The compressor has many safety features: Pressure safety valve, emergency shut down button, low fuel shut down, high temperature engine coolant, high temperature compressor oil and engine oil pressure.
