Most air compressors will run fine using 30 weight non detergent oil.

You could drop the manufacturer a e-mail.

Your compressor shouldnt use a lot of oil ... maybe you are in need of some repair? New rings or bearings or seals?

    A ga30 is a screw compressor and normaly runs on a 46 grade oil.

  • A Miller Feb 05, 2011

    Wow - 46 weight (grade) oil ... that is extremely special. I hope the question asker (from more than one year ago) found this oil somewhere - hopefully the manufacturer.

    I have never seen this grade.

    Interesting. Thanks for the update

Atlas copco compressor (ZR VSD FF 90)displays "main motor converter alarm" after a shutdown. It refuses to be reset. How can this be resolved?

The "Main Motor Converter Alarm" on an Atlas Copco compressor (ZR VSD FF 90) typically indicates a problem with the main motor converter. Here are a few steps you can take to try resolving the issue:
  1. Power cycle the compressor: Turn off the power to the compressor and let it sit idle for a few minutes. Then, turn the power back on and see if the alarm clears. Sometimes, a simple power cycle can reset the system and resolve temporary faults.
  2. Check for loose connections: Inspect all electrical connections, including those related to the main motor converter. Ensure that all connections are secure and tight. Loose connections can cause issues with the motor converter and trigger alarms.
  3. Verify power supply: Ensure that the compressor is receiving the proper power supply within the specified voltage and frequency range. Voltage fluctuations or incorrect power supply can cause issues with the motor converter. Consult the manufacturer's documentation or contact Atlas Copco support for the correct power requirements.
  4. Consult the manual or contact support: Refer to the user manual or contact Atlas Copco technical support for specific troubleshooting steps and guidance related to the "Main Motor Converter Alarm." They may provide you with further instructions or recommend specific actions to resolve the issue.
  5. Professional assistance: If the alarm persists despite your attempts to resolve it, it is recommended to seek assistance from an authorized service technician or Atlas Copco service center. They will have the expertise and necessary tools to diagnose and repair the motor converter or any related issues.

We have an Atlas Copco GA37-125 AP oil-injected 50 hp rotary screw compressor. When it gets hot outside it shuts down.

Question edited for clarity, maker name 'compco', and '(what it is)'.
Question moved from Atlas Refrigerators, to a Compressor category.

It is a well known issue. Details in the link.

I have atlas copco compressor GA 7 , the problem with the compressor is oil in the air filter . can you help ?

I am assuming the oil in the air filter, if its a beltless style would be to keep dust from going inside, like the really old cars were, they called them oil soaked filters. better at trapping dust and dirt.
