1| Safety 1.1 Identification of safety instructions: DANGER! Indicates a dangerous situation which, if not avoided, will cause immediate fatal or serious injury. Indicates a dangerous situation which, if not avoided, WARNING! may cause fatal or serious injury. CAUTION! Indicates a dangerous situation which, if not avoided, may cause fairly severe or minor injury. ATTENTION! Indicates a situation which, if not avoided, may cause property damage. INFO! Important information or tips on simplifying work.
1| Safety 1.4 Intended use These assembly instructions describe the standard version of the FK30 manufactured by Bock. The compressor is intended for use in refrigeration systems in compliance with the limits of application. Only the refrigerant specified in these instructions may be used.
2 | Product description 2.1 Brief description Three different designs are available for various ranges of application: > for air-conditioning the K Design > for air-conditioning or normal cooling the N Design > for deep freezing the TK Design The differences lie mainly in the valve plate tooling which is adapted to each application range where operational safety and efficiency are concerned. Compact two-cylinder compressor in single row. Three capacity ranges. Lightweight aluminum design.

4 | Compressor assembly INFO! New compressors are factory-filled with inert gas (3 bar nitrogen). Leave this service charge in the compressor for as long as possible and prevent the ingress of air. Check the compressor for transport damage before starting any work. 4.1 Setting up Fittings (e.g. pipe holders, additional units etc.) on the compressor are permissible only following consultation with Bock. Setup on an even surface or frame with sufficient load-bearing capacity. Use all 4 fastening points.
4 | Compressor assembly 4.3 V-belt drive ATTENTION! Inappropriately designed belt drives, especially belt knocking or excessive tensioning forces can cause compressor damage! Make sure that the drive belt is designed correctly, e.g. by using tensioners and selecting the belt profile and the belt length. 4.4 Main bearing load To prevent the belt drive overloading the compressor main bearing, ensure that: The force applied at the force engagement force by the belt tension (see Fig.
4 | Compressor assembly 4.6 Pipe connections Fig.13: Stepped internal diameters The discharge and suction line valves have stepped internal diameters, enabling the use of pipes with standard millimetre and inch dimensions. The depth of pipe insertion will depend on the dimension. The connection diameters of the shut-off valves are designed for maximum compressor output. The required pipe cross-section must be matched to the capacity. The same applies for non-return valves.

The connection is not lockable and is provided for safety devices. Service connection open Compressor Fig.
5| Commissioning 5.1 Preparations for start-up INFO! To protect the compressor against inadmissible operating conditions, high-pressure and low-pressure pressostats are mandatory on the installation side. The compressor has undergone trials in the factory and all functions have been tested. There are therefore no special running-in instructions. Check the compressor for transport damage! 5.2 Pressure strength test DANGER! Bursting! The compressor must only be pressurised using nitrogen (N2).
5| Commissioning 5.5 Refrigerant charge CAUTION! Wear personal protective clothing such as goggles and protective gloves! ATTENTION! Avoid overfilling the system with refrigerant! To avoid shifts in concentration, zeotropic refrigerant blends (e.g. R407C) must always be added to the refrigerating plant in liquid form. Do not pour liquid refrigerant through the suction line valve on the compressor. It is not permissible to mix additives with the oil and refrigerant.
5| Commissioning The compressor shaft is sealed to outside using a shaft seal. The sealing element rotates with the shaft. The following is especially important to ensuring fault-free operation: The complete refrigerant circuit must be correctly executed and clean inside. Heavy shocks and vibrations to the shaft as well as continuous cyclic operation are to be avoided. The sealing surfaces can stick together during prolonged downtimes (e.g. winter). Therefore, run the system every 4 weeks for 10 minutes.
6| Maintenance 6.1 Preparation WARNING! Before starting any work on the compressor: Switch off the compressor and secure it to prevent a restart. Relieve compressor of system pressure. Prevent air from infiltrating the system! After maintenance has been performed: Connect safety switch. Evacuate compressor. Release switch lock. 6.2 Work to be carried out Oil change: In principle, an oil change is not mandatory if the system is correctly manufactured and operated.
6| Maintenance 6.5 Extract from the lubricants table The oil type charged as standard in the factory is marked on the name plate. This oil type should be used as a preference. Alternatives are stated in the extract from our lubricants table below.
