Product Description
The Minimum Pressure Valve (MPV) service kit for FIAC NK40 and NK60 rotary screw compressors is a critical component designed to maintain system reliability and efficiency.
The primary function of the MPV is to maintain a minimum required pressure inside the oil separator vessel during startup and unloaded running. This minimum pressure is vital for ensuring proper oil lubrication and efficient oil-air separation before air enters the distribution network. Additionally, it acts as a non-return (check) valve, preventing backflow of compressed air from the air receiver/pipework back into the compressor during idle mode or shutdown.
- Technical & Installation Tips:
- Maintenance Intervals:** Rebuilding or replacing the internal valve components is recommended during routine maintenance intervals (typically every 2,000–4,000 operating hours or as specified in the FIAC service manual).
- Safety First:** Ensure the compressor is completely powered off, electrically isolated, and that all residual pressure in the separator tank has been completely vented before starting work.
- Cleaning the Valve Housing:** Clean the inner valve housing thoroughly to remove varnish, oil residue, or dirt using a mild, non-aggressive degreasing agent.
- O-Ring Lubrication:** Apply a thin layer of silicone grease or clean compressor oil to the new seals and O-rings prior to assembly to prevent pinch damage.
- Spring & Torque Check:** Ensure proper seating of the internal spring and tighten all cover bolts evenly in a cross pattern to ensure a uniform seal.
