GENERAL INFORMATION & OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
SECTION 1
DESCRIPTION
1. GENERAL
The ASP250 is a self-contained, trailer mounted, aircraft jet engine air start unit (see figure 1).
The unit is capable of providing a continuous supply of jet engine start air up to 250 lbs/min
nominal at a pressure of 40 psig when operating in the JET START mode. The unit will also sup-
ply 30 psig air flow for the AIR COND (AIR CONDition) operating mode (or Pneumatic AIR
CONDition, PAC). This setting may be set as high up to 40 psig if desired. Engine speed, moni-
toring, and safety circuitry operation are different for the two modes of operation. In both modes,
excess air is eliminated through a combination of automatic engine speed control based on
bypass air flow and an automatic bypass.
The unit utilizes a steel channel frame and base, sheet metal enclosure with hinged latching
doors and access panels. An illuminated control panel is mounted behind a weather/dust proof
see-through panel (see figure 2). Service hose storage is provided by a full width, frame
mounted tray basket located at the rear of the unit.
ASP250
peratures or low oil pressure.The major subsystems of the DDEC IV system include: the elec-
tronic control module (ECM), electronic unit injectors (EUI), and engine sensors. Real time data
is exchanged between the engine and ECM via the SAE J1708 bus.
System bus voltage is provided by the engine driven self-excited automotive type alternator.
The alternator outputs 24 VDC to control circuitry and storage batteries. The engine is cranked
by an electric starter motor. The starter motor is energized by a start signal from the engine con-
trol circuitry.
The Detroit Diesel® engine is electronically controlled by the electronic control module
(ECM).The system optimizes control of critical engine functions which affect fuel economy,
smoke, emissions and speed.The ECM provides the capability to protect the engine from seri-
ous damage resulting from conditions such as high engine temperatures or low oil pressure.
The ECM receives electronic inputs from sensors on the engine and uses the information to
control engine operation by computing fuel injection timing and fuel quantity based upon cali-
bration tables stored in its electronically erasable programmable read only memory (EEPROM).
The ECM outputs diagnostic signals at two priority levels. Level II diagnostic signals can only be
read using the microprocessor based Digital Data Reader (DDR). These faults are date
stamped and can only be reset using the DDR. Level I diagnostic signals are generally of a
more immediate nature and are indicated by the presence of the Stop Engine Light (SEL) or
Check Engine Light (CEL) signals. The ECM is configured for 24 volt operation.
The GHH-RAND® compressor is a screw-type compressor providing continuous air flow, with
fewer moving parts and no inlet or outlet valves, requiring less maintenance, having a much
lower failure rate, and greatly reduced vibration, all of which are shortcomings normally associ-
ated with piston-type compressors.
Air compression in the GHH-RAND® compressor is accomplished by two interlocking lobed
rotors, each rotating toward the other. A small gap is maintained between the lobes of the rotors
through the function of the unit’s timing gears. This controlled spacing increases efficiency while
reducing wear and friction generated heat. The compression chamber is isolated from the gear-
ing and other oil lubricated components by a vented air chamber, eliminating the possibility of oil
vapor contamination of the compressed air output.
A balanced diaphragm Air Bypass Valve Assembly (Leslie® Valve) (see figures 3 and 5) is used
to maintain the desired output pressure. The set point pressure and the output pressure are
applied to opposite sides of a flexible stainless steel diaphragm. The diaphragm deflects air
away from the higher pressure air proportional to the pressure difference. A shaft is connected
to the diaphragm to open and close a bleed valve. If the output pressure is higher than the set
point, the valve opens more and allows more air to bleed into the air bypass exhaust piping (air
bypass dump); this lowers the output pressure back to the set point. If the output pressure is too
low, the set point pressure pushes the diaphragm in the other direction and closes the valve
proportionally (less air is bled), which brings the output pressure to the set point.
Two separate pressure regulators provide the control reference air pressure used as the set
point for the air bypass valve. Regulator No. 2 is for AirCOND (PAC or Pneumatic AirCOND)
mode and Regulator No. 1 is for the JET START mode. Each regulator has a preset setting that
may be adjusted in the field as required. The settings are 40 psig for JET START mode and 25-
40 psig for AirCOND (PAC). The unit is factory set at 25 psig for AirCOND (PAC).
An engine speed interconnect is incorporated in the air bypass valve system. When excess air
pressure is being bled, the volume of the flow is sensed by the bypass air flow transmitter (PFT)
via two delivery air manifold mounted pilot tubes. The current signal output of the PTF is routed
to the Demand Variable Speed Governor Control (VSG) circuit card assembly A5 where it is
processed. The processed engine speed signal is routed from the VSG circuit card assembly
A5 pin 14 to the DDEC Electronic Control Module (ECM J2-D1) as 0.7-4.5 volt power takeoff
speed adjust (PTOSA) signal. The PTOSA signals the governor to reduce engine speed propor-
tionately. When greater demand is sensed by the reduction of bleed air, the governor system is
signaled to increase engine speed to meet the new demand. This feature provides a significant
reduction in engine wear, fuel consumption, and increases operational unit life, particularly dur-
ing periods of unit standby when it is in the AIR START or AIR CONDition mode, but output has
not yet been selected by the operator or serviced aircraft.
The engine speed interconnect and air bypass valve assembly system also function in conjunc-
tion with delivery air over pressure switch (S10), normally set at 45 psig. During the air start
function, once aircraft engine start has occurred and aircraft valves are suddenly closed, a rapid
rise in air pressure is felt within the unit. As the unit internal pressure rises above this 45 psig
level, the delivery air over pressure switch (S10) activates, in turn activating the air unload sole-
noid valve (ULSOV) (AS3) which functions to drive the low pressure side of the air bypass valve
to the full open position, dumping excess pressure. This opening of the air bypass dump valve
also signals the governor system to decrease engine speed, both the bypass valve and engine
speed then function to again stabilize the system output at the desired pressure.
Safety pressure relief valve (RV1) is utilized in the event of control system failure. Should unit
pressure reach 50 psig, a high volume dumping valve plug within the RV1 is unseated and held
open until unit pressure falls below the 50 psig level, at which time it will re-seat. Operation of
this valve is a rare occurrence and is designed primarily as a fail-safe air pressure dump safety
device.
Output air gauges are provided to allow the operator and maintenance personnel to monitor unit
output air pressure and temperature. A manual ball valve controls the unit output and has a
built-in safety feature. When the valve is in the closed position it vents air pressure between the
output hose and the valve. The hose will deflate when the valve is in the closed position, allow-
ing safe operator disconnect from the aircraft.
2. MAJOR COMPONENTS
A. Chassis
This unit is trailer mounted, requiring no external electrical or mechanical sources of
power. The unit will operate efficiently at altitudes ranging from sea level to 6,000 feet
(1829M).
Components of this unit are protected by a weather resistant enclosure. This enclosure
consists of an arrangement of covers and access doors over the welded frame. The
enclosure reduces the operational noise level in the immediate area of the unit, and pro-
vides for a cooling air passage.
B. Engine Assembly
The Diesel engine is coupled to the compressor. The engine is computer controlled by
the Detroit Diesel® Electronic Control System (DDEC IV). The DDEC IV system is com-
prised of:
• Engine mounted Electronic Control Module (ECM)
• Electronic Unit Injectors (EUI’s)
• Engine Sensors
The computing functions of the DDEC IV system are performed within the Electronic
Control Module (ECM). Fuel is delivered to the cylinders by the EUI’s. The ECM com-
puter controls solenoid operated valves in the EUI’s to provide precise fuel delivery.
C. Engine Monitoring Safety
Engine monitoring safety circuits include low oil pressure, high engine temperature, and
over speed. Should either of these situations occur while the unit is in the AIR CONDition
mode, a fault indicator lamp will illuminate and the unit will automatically shut down. In
the JET START mode, only the fault indicator will illuminate, shutdown will not occur until
the mode is changed from the JET START position. Low fuel level in the unit fuel tank will
first illuminate a roof mounted warning light (optional), and at the critical fuel level auto-
matic engine shutdown will occur when in the UNLOADED or AIR CONDition mode. This
automatic shutdown is to prevent fuel loss to the engine injector system. No shutdown
occurs in the JET START mode, unless the bypass jumper is removed. (See figure 2,
Section 2-4)
(1) Electronic Control Module (ECM) (see figure 8). The Electronic Control Module
(ECM) is mounted at the top forward end of the engine. The ECM contains the
control computer and is mounted in a weather proof enclosure.
Wiring harnesses of the ECM provide sensor signals from various engine com-
ponents; injectors; oil temperature and pressure; fuel temperature and pressure;
timing and synchronization reference sensors; and turbo boost pressure.
electrical panel, to down (read). Once a malfunction has been corrected, the
ECM will return the engine to normal operation. However the malfunction code
recorded in the ECM computer memory will remain until erased by a technician
using the DDR. Engine malfunction codes stored in the ECM memory may be
recalled and displayed by means of the DDR or DS18 switch.
(4) Diagnostic Data Reader (Figure 10)
The Diagnostic Data Reader (DDR) is a microprocessor-based test instrument
(Pro-Link 9000®) designed to tap into the ECM computer. It is programmed to
interpret computer signals and provide readouts the technician can use for diag-
nosis. The technician has instant access to any of the engines operating data. A
six-pin DDR receptacle (see figure 9) is mounted in the Electrical Panel Assem-
bly for connection of the DDR data link.
(5) Engine Speed Control
The engine operating speed, as part of its on-board computer system, is auto-
matically governed to precisely maintain programmed engine speeds. An inte-
gral magnetic sensor monitors engine speed and provides this data to the ECM
for control. Constant speed is maintained by regulating engine fuel and operat-
ing parameters. The idle (UNLOADED) speed is factory set by the ECM’s inter-
nal program.
(6) Engine Fault Status Switch (see figure 11)
NOTE
The safety fault circuits react differently between the two modes of
operation. When in the AIR CONDition mode, a compressor or engine
fault will cause the unit to immediately shutdown. When in the JET
START mode, faults will illuminate a warning light only and WILL NOT
shut down the unit.
A series of diagnostic codes flash on the ENGINE FAULT MODE CEL indicator
light. CEL stands for Check Engine Light. The flashes correspond to individual
error codes which identify the engine system reporting an error. To read stored
engine malfunction codes, the unit is shut-down with the ENGINE ON/OFF
switch in the OFF position, then turned ON without the engine running. Switch
DS18 (Fault Engine Status switch), located on the Electrical Panel, is placed in
the down position (read). When DS18 is held in the down position, the CEL will
flash stored diagnostic codes. A table providing an explanation and listing of the
CEL codes is located in the troubleshooting section, Chapter 2, Section 2.
DDEC IV detected engine fault conditions will not shut-down the engine. The Tri-
lectron fault system will shut down the engine only in AIR CONDition and
UNLOADED modes. The DDEC IV system only monitors the engine, stores fault
information, and flashes warnings and alerts on the CEL and SEL warning lights
to alert the operator that a fault exists. When safe to do so, the engine should
then be shut-down, and the fault corrected.
A reference pressure is taken from the delivery air piping through a check valve, to an
accumulator. This air pressure is used and pressure controlled by the Air Pressure Reg-
ulator Assembly to provide reference control pressure to the Air Bypass Valve.
The Air Bypass Valve operates on the principle of balanced pressure on a stainless steel
diaphragm to either open or close the valve. A controlled pressure is supplied from the
regulator valves to a control pressure input on the bypass valve that is used to maintain
the desired pressure. A reference pressure from the delivery air piping enters on the
bypass valve on other side of the diaphragm, when the pressure from this is greater than
the pressure on the controlled side the bypass valve allows air to be vented to the atmo-
sphere. A differential pressure transmitter is constantly monitoring the amount of air flow
being vented. When a flow is detected, a variable output is sent to the engine speed con-
trol to ramp down the engine speed in direct relation to how much air is being vented to
the atmosphere.
When aircraft requirements call for more or less air flow, the line pressure will drop or rise
respectively, unbalancing the forces on the diaphragm. The valve will open or close until
a new balance is achieved. Excess air capacity is vented to the atmosphere. In cases
when the aircraft engines have started and it’s valves have shut quickly, a transient pres-
sure buildup is possible within the air start system. For controlling momentary buildups, a
safety pressure relief valve will vent these transient high pressure surges. In case of a
control system failure a pressure safety valve will purge to atmosphere should the line
pressure exceed 50 psi.
NOTE
The safety fault circuits react differently between the two modes of
operation. When in the AIR CONDition mode, a compressor or engine
fault will cause the unit to immediately shutdown. When in the JET
START mode faults will illuminate a warning light only, unless the
safety J/S jumper is removed (See figure 1, Sect. 2-2 -TROUBLE-
SHOOTING).
4. ELECTRICAL SYSTEM OPERATION
A. Unit Start (Units with Serial #s prior to 501558) (See Section 2-2, Electrical Sche-
matic Diagram)
With the ENGINE ON/OFF control power switch (S2) in the ON position (POWER ON
lamp DS1 illuminated) and the MODE SELECTOR switch (S1) is in the UNLOADED
(idle) position, the unit is ready to start. When the ENGINE START push-button switch
(S3) is pressed, power from the storage batteries (B1-B4) is provided to the start circuit
through Circuit Breaker 1 (CB1) to the Starter Contactor (K1). Contacts in the MODE
SELECTOR switch (S1) which are in the start circuit prevent the unit being started unless
the selector switch is in the UNLOADED (idle) position.
Should the fuel level in the tank be low, the Low Fuel Warning Switch (S6A) will be
closed, energizing the Low Fuel Warning Relay (K3), and the roof top mounted low fuel
warning beacon (Optional) (DS10) will be illuminated. Should the fuel level be at or below
the critical level, as soon as Time Delay Relay 1 (TD1) activates, Fuel Low Level Switch
S6B will close to energize low fuel shutdown relay (K9). K9's contacts 5 and 6 opens to
provide a “drop out” fault signal to master fault relay (K2).
K2 contacts 7 and 4 open removing +24 VDC from Ignition input at Electronic Governor
A2, pin 1. Loss of Ignition +24 VDC at A2 will shut the unit down.
Power is also applied at this time through the ENGINE ON/OFF control power switch
(S2):
• to the Compressor Low Oil Level Relay (K6) through the closed contacts of the Com-
pressor OIL Level Switch (COLSW) S11, assuming the compressor oil level is cor-
rect.
• energizes the Master Fault Relay (K2), whose closed contacts 4 & 7 maintain power
to the Electronic Governor (A2) run circuit.
• to Time Delay Relay 1, which energizes until after a 30 second delay. TD1 delay locks
in (contacts 5 & 6) the Fault Monitoring PCB (A1) after the unit has started and had
sufficient time to stabilize at idle speed.
• to Time Delay Relay 2, whose normally open contacts close and will remain closed
for a period of 90 seconds after power is removed from TD2. The closed contacts of
TD2 in the primary power circuit of the engine control ensures that a 90 second
engine cool-down idle period will occur whenever an operator shuts the engine down.
B. Unit Start (Units with Serial #s 501558 and Subsequent) (See Section 2-2, Electrical
Schematic Diagram)
With the ENGINE ON/OFF control power switch (S2) in the ON position (POWER ON
lamp DS1 illuminated) and the MODE SELECTOR switch (S1) is in the UNLOADED
(idle) position, the unit is ready to start. When the ENGINE START push-button switch
(S3) is pressed, power from the storage batteries (B1-B4) is provided to the start circuit
through Circuit Breaker 1 (CB1) to an AUTO START TIMER (TD3). When energized, the
TD3 coil closes a contact to the Starter Contactor (K1) for 5-6 seconds. This time delay-
allows sufficient starter engagement time to accomodate lower-energy avaition fuels.
The Electronic Control Module (ECM) senses engine speed (RPM) to ensure engine
start. When sufficient engine speed is attained (approximately 500 rpm), the ECM ener-
gizes the STARTER LOCKOUT RELAY (K16) to prevent excessive engine starter
engagement. The K16 relay will reset once engine low speed (less than 50 rpm) is
detected and will allow additional engine start attempts. Contacts in the MODE SELEC-
TOR switch (S1) which are in the start circuit prevent the unit being started unless the
selector switch is in the UNLOADED (idle) position.
Should the fuel level in the tank be low, the Low Fuel Warning Switch (S6A) will be
closed, energizing the Low Fuel Warning Relay (K3), and the roof top mounted low fuel
warning beacon (Optional) (DS10) will be illuminated. Should the fuel level be at or below
the critical level, as soon as Time Delay Relay 1 (TD1) activates, Fuel Low Level Switch
S6B will close to energize low fuel shutdown relay (K9). K9's contacts 5 and 6 opens to
provide a “drop out” fault signal to master fault relay (K2).
K2 contacts 7 and 4 open removing +24 VDC from Ignition input at Electronic Governor
A2, pin 1. Loss of Ignition +24 VDC at A2 will shut the unit down.
Power is also applied at this time through the ENGINE ON/OFF control power switch
(S2):
• to the Compressor Low Oil Level Relay (K6) through the closed contacts of the Com-
pressor OIL Level Switch (COLSW) S11, assuming the compressor oil level is cor-
rect.
• energizes the Master Fault Relay (K2), whose closed contacts 4 & 7 maintain power
to the Electronic Governor (A2) run circuit.
• to Time Delay Relay 1, which energizes until after a 30 second delay. TD1 delay locks
in (contacts 5 & 6) the Fault Monitoring PCB (A1) after the unit has started and had
sufficient time to stabilize at idle speed.
• to Time Delay Relay 2, whose normally open contacts close and will remain closed
for a period of 90 seconds after power is removed from TD2. The closed contacts of
TD2 in the primary power circuit of the engine control ensures that a 90 second
engine cool-down idle period will occur whenever an operator shuts the engine down.
C. Unit Running - Standby (Unloaded) Mode (See Section 2-2, Electrical Schematic
Diagram)
With the unit started and running in the UNLOADED Mode (idle), once TD1 has timed-
out and energized:
• contacts TD1/ 1 & 4 open approximately 30 seconds after control power is applied,
opening the start circuit to prevent the starter being engaged while the engine is run-
ning. Should the engine shut down, restart it by setting the ENGINE ON/OFF control
power switch (S2) to OFF, then back to ON, to clear and reset TD1.
• contacts TD1/8 & 6 close, applying power to the HOUR METER (which records
engine run time).
• with contacts TD1/6 & 8 closed and power applied to the Fault Monitor PCB (A1), the
fault monitoring circuits are now active:
• Should engine oil pressure be below 15 psig, the Engine Oil Pressure Switch
(EOP) (S4) will close, energizing the Engine Oil Pressure Fault Relay (K4),
which will cause the Low Engine Oil Pressure warning light (DS11) to illumi-
nate, the Master Fault Relay (K2) to de-energize removing power to electronic
governor A2, and the unit will shut down.
• Should engine water temperature be above 225°F (107°C), the Water Tem-
perature Switch (S5) will close, energizing the Engine Water Temperature
Fault Relay (K5), which will cause the High Engine Water Temperature warn-
ing light (DS12) to illuminate, the Master Fault Relay (K2) to de-energize
removing power to the electronic governor A2, and the unit will shut down.
• Should the compressor oil level drop below the minimum level, the Compres-
sor Low Oil Level Switch (COLSW) S11 will close, energizing the Low Com-
pressor Oil Level Fault Relay (K6), which will cause the Low Compressor Oil
Level warning light (DS17) to illuminate, the Master Fault Relay (K2) to de-
energize removing power to the electronic governor A2, and the unit will shut
down.
• Since the compressor is coupled directly to the engine and is operating when-
ever the engine is running, the compressor oil pressure should now be at its
operating level of 20 psig minimum. Should the compressor oil pressure be
below 20 psig, the Compressor Low Oil Pressure Switch (S7) will close, ener-
gizing the Compressor Low Oil Pressure Fault Relay (K7), which will cause the
Compressor Low Oil Pressure warning light (DS14) to illuminate, the Master
Fault Relay (K2) to de-energize removing power to the electronic governor,
and the unit will shut down.
• The Engine Over-Speed fault (AIR CONDition mode only) is independent of
the Fault Monitor PCB (A1) except for fault light operation (DS13). Should an
over-speed condition occur, it will be sensed by the Over-Speed Switch (A3),
which will apply power to the Over-Speed Contactor (K8). The Over-Speed
Contactor (K8) will de-energize, opening contacts 5 and 6, which causes Mas-
ter Fault Relay K2 to de-energize removing power from the Electronic Gover-
nor (A2) and shuts-down the engine. K8 contacts 8 and 9 will also cause the
engine over-speed warning light (DS13) to illuminate.
D. Unit Running - AIR CONDition Mode (See Section 2-2, Electrical Schematic Dia-
gram)
With the unit running in the UNLOADED (Idle) mode, and the MODE SELECTOR switch
(S1) set to the AIR CONDition, the following occurs:
• S1-F - Closed S1 Contacts “F” signals the Demand VSG Circuit Card Assembly
(CCA) A5, to set the engine maximum speed to approximately 1500 rpm. CCA A5
adjusts the actual engine speed according to the amount of air being dumped out the
Bypass Air Valve. The Bypass Air Flow Transmitter (PTF), senses the flow of air out
the valve and converts the flow to a 4-20 mA electrical current signal. The Demand
VSG CCA A5 detects the current signal and increases or decreases the engine
speed to maintain proper airflow in the Bypass Air Valve. During full bypass (outlet
ball valve(s) closed) the engine speed should be reduced to approximately 1300 rpm
by the demand system. Lower speeds are used to: decrease engine fuel consump-
tion, decrease engine wear and increase life, and to abate noise.
• S1-E - Open contacts “E” inhibits unload air bypass dump relay K13 and AS3 from
dumping (blow-off) of air at the Air Bypass Valve Assembly.
• S1-D - Closed contacts “D” energize the AIR COND Air Solenoid Valve (AS2) open
through the normally closed contacts of the Delivery Air Over Pressure Switch (S10).
If the delivered air pressure rises above a preset level, the Delivery Air Over Pressure
Switch will switch and the following sequence of events will occur: 1) Air Delivery
Solenoid AS2 is de-energized, 2) the Unload Air Solenoid AS3 is energized, 3) the
Bypass Air Set Point Pressure is vented, and 4) the Bypass Air Valve opens immedi-
ately to relieve the excess pressure. When the pressure is relieved the Delivery Air
Over Pressure Switch S10 returns to its normal position and normal operation is rees-
tablished.
All Fault Monitor circuits are operational in the AIR CONDition (PAC) mode. Should any
of the following conditions occur, the unit will shut down:
• Engine oil pressure fall to 15 psig or lower.
• Engine water temperature rise to 225°F(107°C) or higher.
• A low compressor oil level condition occur.
• Compressor oil pressure fall to 4.5 psig (.3 bar) or lower.
• Engine over-speed, if engine speed should exceed 2450 rpm.
• Fuel level falls to or below the critical level.
• Output air temperature exceeds 500°F(260°C).
• Compressor oil temperature exceeds 195°F(90°C).
E. Unit Running - JET START Mode (See Section 2-2, Electrical Schematic Diagram)
With the unit running in the Unloaded (Idle) mode or the AIR CONDition mode and the
Mode Selector Switch (S1) is moved to the JET START position, the following occurs:
• S1-B - Closed S1 Contacts “B” signals the Demand VSG Circuit Card Assembly
(CCA) A5, to set the engine maximum speed to approximately 2300 rpm (full rated
engine speed). CCA A5 adjusts the actual engine speed according to the amount of
air being dumped out the Bypass Air Valve Assembly. The Bypass Air Flow Transmit-
ter (PTF) senses the flow of air out the valve and converts the flow to a 4-20 mA elec-
trical current signal. The Demand VSG CCA A5 detects the current signal and
increases or decreases the engine speed to maintain proper airflow in the Bypass Air
Valve. During full by pass (outlet ball valve(s) closed) the engine speed should be
reduced to approximately 1800 rpm by the demand system. Lower speeds are used
to: decrease engine fuel consumption, decrease engine wear and increase life, and
to abate noise. During jet engine spool, Bypass Air Flow is set to zero and the engine
runs at full rated speed (2300 rpm).
• S1-A - Open contacts “A” inhibits unload air bypass dump relay K13 and AS3 from
dumping (blow-off) of air at the Air Bypass Valve Assembly.
• S1-D - Open contacts “D” inhibits the AIR CONDition Delivery Solenoid (AS2) and
closes the AIR CONDition Delivery valve (AS2).
• S1-C - Closed contacts “C” energizes Jet Start Solenoid Valve (AS1) open through
the normally closed contacts of the Delivery Air Over Pressure Switch (S10). If the
delivered air pressure rises above a preset level, the Delivery Air Over Pressure
Switch will switch and the following sequence of events will occur:
(1) AS2 is de-energized,
(2) Air Unload Solenoid AS3 is energized,
(3) the Bypass Air Set Point Pressure is vented,
(4) the Bypass Air Valve opens immediately to relieve the excess pressure. When
the pressure is relieved the Delivery Air Over Pressure Switch (S10) returns to
its normal position and normal operation is reestablished.
• When the air delivery valves are opened to supply start air flow to the aircraft, engine
speed will increase and will be dependent on delivered air pressure, maintaining the
NOTE
Unit automatic shutdown due to equipment faults is disabled in
the JET START mode. Due to potentially severe problems
which could occur to the jet engine/aircraft should the unit fail
during the JET START procedure, the unit will function to
destruction rather than remove start air from the aircraft,
unless the bypass jumper is removed (See figure 1, Sect. 2-2 -
TROUBLESHOOTING).
N.C. contacts 3 and 4 provide a 100 VAC current path through the block heater.
When the engine is on and is in the run mode, Time Delay Relay (TD1) closes
after 45 seconds enabling K15. K15 contacts 3 and 4 open to de-energize the
block heater.
Additionally, when the engine attains idle speed and the engine oil pressure
reaches 15 PSI, Oil Pressure Sensor S4 contacts 1 and 2 open circuit and inhibit
the engine block heater by removing K15’s ground path. The maximum length of
time that the block heater could remain energized is also limited by TD1’s time
delay (45 seconds after start-up). Contactor K15, diodes CR20 and 21 are
mounted in common within the engine compartment, on the engine support
mount, just above the fuel pick-up port.

cedure, or if the unit has been in extended storage, refer to Section 1-
5, Storage, before performing the preoperational inspection.
A. Pre-Operation/Inspection
For cold weather operation, the unit is optionally equipped with 110/220 VAC engine
block heater, engine oil heater, and battery heater. The power receptacle for these is
located mounted under the frame at the left front corner of the chassis. Power should be
applied to the receptacle for at least one hour prior to cold weather starting.
Prior to the first operation of the day, the unit must be inspected to ensure safe and reli-
able operation. The engine service panel portion of the control panel must be observed
to ensure that the engine oil pressure, temperature, and alternator are functioning prop-
erly. Perform the preoperational inspection as follows:
(1) Enclosure: Visually inspect for obvious defects, i.e., security of common hard-
ware. Verify that there are no unsecured items or debris which could be sucked
into the units cooling fan. Also check that all doors are secured.
(2) Towbar: Excessive movement and security of hardware.
(3) Brakes: Check for proper operation.
(4) Tires: Inspect tread wear and tire inflation pressure (60 psig)
(5) Engine hoses and clamps: Inspect for leaks and security.
(6) Check Engine Oil Level: With the engine off, open the engine access door.
Remove engine oil dipstick (see figure 1) and check oil level mark on dipstick.
Add oil if necessary to bring the level up to the full mark.
CAUTION
NEVER OPERATE ENGINE WITH OIL LEVEL BELOW THE “LOW”
MARK OR ABOVE THE “FULL” MARK. WAIT AT LEAST 5 MINUTES
AFTER SHUTTING OFF ENGINE BEFORE CHECKING OIL. THIS
ALLOWS TIME FOR THE OIL TO DRAIN TO THE OIL PAN.
(7) Check Radiator Fluid Level: Check the fluid level in the radiator overflow tank
mounted at the side of the radiator. Always check the level with the engine cold.
The fluid level should be within the NORMAL range.
(8) Check Compressor Oil Level: Open the compressor access door on the front left
side of the unit. Visually inspect the oil level in the sight glass. book date With
the unit not operating, oil level should be approximately 1/4 inch below the top of
the glass. After the unit has been run for three to five minutes, the unit should be
shut down and the oil level rechecked. Refer to Section 2-1, SERVICING, for
instructions on adding oil.
(9) Open the unit access doors and inspect the following items located in the unit
interior:
• Radiator fan drive belts for cuts and cracks.
• Radiator fan drive belts for proper tension. Pressure with the heel of the hand should
move the center of the belt approximately 3/8” out of line.
• Check for loose hardware and foreign objects that may interfere with rotating parts
with the unit operating.
(11) Prepare to start engine: Ensure both Air Delivery Ball Valves are in the full
“closed” position.
(a) Set ENGINE ON/OFF switch to ON. The POWER ON indicator lamp will be
illuminated.
(b) Set MODE SELECTOR switch to UNLOADED.

ating temperature, the engine indicator gauges shall read as follows:
• WATER TEMP (Engine Coolant): 186° to 210°F (85.5°C to 98.9°C)
• ENGINE OIL PRESS: 20 psig minimum at IDLE, 63 psig minimum when in the
JET START or AIR COND. modes.
• BATTERY: 24 Volts minimum.
(e) Visually inspect the outside and underneath of the unit for signs of loose
hardware, fluid leaks, or any condition which could be potentially damaging
or hazardous to the equipment or personnel.
(f) This completes the pre-operation inspection. To shut down the unit, set
ENGINE ON/OFF switch to OFF. The engine will shut down and the
POWER ON indicator light will go out.

CAUTION
BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO CONNECT THE BATTERIES, MAKE SURE
THE ENGINE ON/OFF SWITCH ON THE CONTROL PANEL IS SET TO
OFF.
Connect batteries as follows:
• The unit utilizes two sets of batteries, each tied together in parallel, and the two sets
joined in parallel to provide 24VDC. Connect the engine positive battery cable (red) to
the vacant positive battery terminal. Connect the engine negative battery cable
(black) to the vacant negative battery terminal.
• Check engine oil level. Do not operate the unit if the oil level is below the low or add
mark on the dipstick. Service with oil until the oil level is at the full mark. Refer to Sec-
tion 2-1, Servicing, for proper oil grade.
• Remove the radiator cap and inspect the coolant level. Service as required to bring

STORAGE
1. GENERAL
This section provides instructions for preparing the Air Start Unit assembly for both short and
long term storage.
When the unit is to be stored or removed from operation, use the following procedures to
protect the internal and external components from rust, corrosion, and gumming in the
engine fuel system.
2. PREPARATION FOR STORAGE
A. Short Term Storage (less than 3 months)
The following steps are recommended if the unit is to be placed out of service for three
months or less. The unit should be prepared for storage as soon as possible after being
removed from service.
(1) Check that the thoroughly mixed coolant is adequate for the lowest anticipated
temperatures during storage period.
(2) Add oil to engine until the engine oil dip stick level indicates at FULL mark.
(3) Drain a small portion of fuel from fuel tank by removing drain plug at bottom of
tank. This will remove any water that may have accumulated at the bottom of the
fuel tank.
NOTE
Do not drain the fuel system or crankcase.
(4) Install new fuel filters.
(5) Fill fuel tank to capacity. A full fuel tank prevents moisture laden air from entering
the tank during the cool periods and allowing rust or corrosion to form.
(6) Compressor:
If the unit is to be stored for three months or less, no special preservation mea-
sures should be required. However, the oil film on the compressor bearings and
in the gear unit must be renewed by running the unit for a ten minute period
each week. If this is not practical, then long term storage preparation should be
followed.
The discharge piping and non-return valve must also be prepared for storage by
applying a protective film of preserving oil. This application, depending on cli-
matic conditions, will protect for approximately three months. It should be
inspected monthly, and reapplied as required.
(7) Close all access doors and covers to minimize buildup of foreign particles in the
unit.
(8) Remove and clean battery terminals and cables with baking soda-water solu-
tion, rinse with fresh water. Do not allow the soda water to enter the battery. Add
distilled water to the electrolyte, if necessary fully charge the battery. Store the
battery in a cool dry place separate from the unit. Storage temperature should
never be below 32°F (0°C). Periodically inspect the batteries to keep them fully
charged and check the specific gravity of the electrolyte regularly.
(9) Seal all engine openings, including the exhaust outlet, with moisture resistant
tape. Use cardboard, plywood, or metal covers where practical.
(10) Tag Control Panel “DO NOT RUN, STORAGE READY”.
(11) Compressor:
If the unit is to be stored for more than three months, or can not be run weekly,
all the lube oil should be completely drained and replaced with preserving oil.
Running the unit for five to ten minutes will coat the bearings and gear unit with
a protective film of preserving oil.
(12) The discharge piping and non-return valve must also be prepared for storage by
applying a protective film of preserving oil. This application, depending on cli-
matic conditions, will protect for approximately three months. It should be
inspected monthly, and reapplied as required.
C. Returning to Service:
The preserving oil must be removed from the oil tank and piping system and replaced
with normal lubricating oil according to Section 2-1. The suction strainer in the oil pump
suction pipe must be cleaned, and the oil filter cartridge replaced.

NOTES:
Antifreeze concentration level should not exceed recommended levels. Equipment failure may result.
a. A mixture of 50% antifreeze and 50% water is required for temperatures above -34o F. (-37o C.)
b. A mixture of 60% antifreeze and 40% water is required for temperatures below -34o F. (-37o C.) This provides pro-
tection to - 65o F. (-54o C.). NEVER exceed 60% antifreeze and 40% water mix.
c. NEVER use 100% antifreeze for make-up coolant.
** Motor oil can be used for temperatures down to -4o F (-20o C), and turbine/hydraulic oils down to 32o F (0o C). Where
ambient temperatures are lower, an oil heater should be installed. Never mix oil types.
ASP250
C. Arctic Operation
If an engine is operated in ambient temperatures consistently between 0°F to -25°F
(-18°C to -31.7°C) and there are no provisions to keep the engine warm when it is not in
operation, the use of multi-viscosity grade 15W-40 or mono-grade SAE30 will improve
stability.
CAUTION
THE USE OF A SYNTHETIC BASE OIL DOES NOT JUSTIFY
EXTENDED OIL CHANGE INTERVALS. EXTENDED OIL CHANGE
INTERVALS CAN DECREASE ENGINE LIFE DUE TO FACTORS SUCH
AS CORROSION, DEPOSITS AND WEAR.
NOTE
Additional information regarding lubricating oil availability through-
out the world is available in the “E.M.A. Lubricating Oils Data Book
for Heavy Duty Automotive and Industrial Engine.” The data book
may be ordered from the Engine Manufacturers Association, One Illi-
nois Center, 111 East Wacker Drive, Chicago, Il U.S.A. 60601.
4. COOLANT SPECIFICATIONS & RECOMMENDATIONS
A. Specifications
Use Ethylene Glycol or Propylene Glycol antifreeze containing a corrosion inhibitor pack-
age and which meets an appropriate heavy duty specification (i.e., TMC RP-329 for eth-
ylene glycol or TMC RP-330 for propylene glycol).
B. Concentration
Antifreeze must be used in any climate for both freeze and boiling point protection. A
50% concentration level (40 to 60% range) of ethylene glycol, propylene glycol is recom-
mended in most climates. Antifreeze at 68% concentration provides the maximum freeze
protection and must never be exceed under any condition. Antifreeze protection
decreases above 68%.
C. Concentration Testing
Antifreeze concentration must be checked using Detroit Diesel POWER Trac® Coolant
Test Strips1 (P/N 23522774). The test strips will indicate glycol percentage and inhibitor
value. “Floating Ball” type density testers are NOT accurate enough for heavy duty die-
sel cooling systems.
D. Coolant Change Recommendations
Trilectron recommends the cooling system be drained and replaced every 3000 hours or
yearly (whichever occurs first) to eliminate buildup of harmful chemicals.

5. FUEL RECOMMENDATIONS/SPECIFICATIONS
Trilectron recommends the use of ASTM D 975 fuel. The use of No.2 Diesel fuel will result in
optimum engine performance. At operation temperatures below 32°F (0°C), acceptable per-
formance can be obtained by using blends of No.2 D and No.1 D. The use of lighter fuels
can reduce fuel economy.
The sulfur content of the fuel should be as low as possible to avoid premature wear and
excessive deposit formation. Fuel containing no more that 0.5% sulfur are recommended. If
the use of fuels with sulfur contents above 0.5% are unavoidable, lube oil drain intervals
(less) and lubricant selection need to be changed.

SECTION 2
TROUBLESHOOTING
1. GENERAL
This section contains troubleshooting information to assist in locating and correcting operat-
ing troubles which may develop in the Air Start Unit. Each malfunction for an individual com-
ponent, unit or system is followed by a list of tests or inspections to aid in the determination
of the probable causes and corrective action required.
Perform the tests/inspections and corrective actions in the order listed. Troubleshooting is a
logical and systematic process of determining and correcting the cause of a malfunction.
The process begins with verification of the malfunction. This may often involve an opera-
tional checkout of the Air Start Unit. After verifying the trouble, identify all components whose
failure could cause the symptoms observed during the operational checkout. Start by check-
ing those items having the highest in probability of failure. Inspect and test each component,
until the exact cause of the problem is determined and corrected.
WARNING
FUEL, OILS AND OTHER PETROLEUM PRODUCTS CAN READILY BE ABSORBED
THROUGH THE SKIN AND INTO THE BLOOD STREAM. WASH IMMEDIATELY
AFTER COMING INTO CONTACT WITH THESE PRODUCTS.
NOTE
Battery must be fully charged to provide control voltages. Do not attempt to start
engine if BATTERY voltmeter indicates less than 20 volts.
CAUTION
DO NOT HOLD ENGINE STATUS SWITCH S18 (FIGURE 1) IN DOWN POSITION
(READ) WHILE THE UNIT IS OPERATING. IF THIS IS DONE, THE DIAGNOSTIC MODE
LINE WILL BE GROUNDED, AND THE THROTTLE WILL BE FORCED TO IDLE.
Before repairing or replacing any system component as indicated by the diagnostic charts:
• Disconnect the appropriate connector(s) associated with the suspected defective
component and check for bent, broken, or dirty terminals or mating tabs. Clean,
straighten, or replace as required.
• If a problem was found, reconnect all connectors previously disconnected. Then
recheck the system to see if the problem has been corrected.
NOTE
Don't probe the back of a connector or pierce the DDEC IV wiring for pur-
poses of taking measurements. This can cause intermittent faults or system
failures and may affect the DDEC IV warranty.
Whenever the DDEC IV system detects an engine fault, the CHECK ENGINE or STOP
ENGINE light will illuminate. The DDEC computer will determine where the problem is, and
will then store this information in its memory.
If the malfunction is intermittent, the "lights" will come on and go off as the computer senses
the changing engine condition.
The malfunction code can be obtained by the operator by causing the CEL light to flash a
code number which will identify the malfunction. It will, for example, flash
twice....pause....flash five times....pause. This is code 25, indicating normal system opera-
tion.
To read CEL Diagnostic Codes, proceed as follows:
(1) Shut-down unit, with ENGINE ON/OFF switch in the OFF position.
(2) Set ENGINE ON/OFF switch (Figure 1), to ON. DO NOT START ENGINE.
CAUTION
DO NOT HOLD ENGINE STATUS SWITCH S18 (FIGURE 1) IN DOWN POSITION

twice,.. pause... flash five times... pause). Refer to table 1 for complete
code listing.
The SEL light may flash out active codes which are high priority faults and require imme-
diate operator attention to avoid engine damage. A SEL fault will be indicated when any
or all of the following conditions occur:
• Low coolant level
• High coolant temperature
• High oil temperature
• Low oil pressure
• Engine overspeed
The CEL light may flash out inactive codes if a low priority fault is present (happening
now) or past fault(s) remain stored in the ECM memory. The inactive codes are low prior-
ity faults and only affect engine performance. Eventual operator attention is required.
E. Diagnostic Procedure
When diagnosing the cause for engine performance, fuel economy or exhaust system
complaints, perform normal check on the engine and systems prior to considering DDEC
IV as the possible source of the problem.
The codes and procedures listed in this manual are an abbreviated adaptation of the
Detroit Diesel® Troubleshooting Manual, and are provided as a first reference. Refer to
the Detroit Diesel® Troubleshooting Manual for further information and for procedures
not covered in this manual.
If no CEL codes were recorded by the DDEC IV, but a operational symptom remains,
Refer to the START chart in the Detroit Diesel® Troubleshooting Manual which can iden-
tify fault trees to use based on the user's complaint.

5. TROUBLESHOOTING CHART
This troubleshooting chart (See table 2) lists information under three headings as fol-
lows:
• Fault & Condition
• Probable Cause
• Test, Check, Remedy
A. Use of the Troubleshooting Chart
If the cause of a trouble is uncommon and cannot be located using the chart, a good
place to start your checks is at the last known source of power. Then proceed by check-
ing each component in the circuit/system thoroughly. Use the schematics and diagrams.
Electrical components in the troubleshooting chart (such as S1, T1, etc.), are identified
by a noun name an a corresponding symbol to identify the item on schematic diagrams.
It is assumed that wiring and connections in defective circuits have been thoroughly
checked before condemning any component(s).
B. Support Test Equipment Required
• Multimeter (FLUKE® Model No. 8060 or equivalent)
• At least two jumper leads with alligator clips and test prods are required.
• Pro-Link® 9000 Engine Diagnostic Computer (Optional).
• See engine Shop Manual tool requirements.
(1) Ensure that unit is shut-down with the ENGINE ON/OFF switch set to OFF.
NOTE
Do not set Engine Fault Status switch S18 to read while the generator set is operat-
ing. If this is done, the diagnostic mode line will be grounded, and the throttle will
be forced to idle.
(2) On electrical panel, press and hold down ENGINE FAULT STATUS switch S18
to READ.
(3) Set ENGINE ON/OFF switch to ON. The CEL will flash out stored Flash Codes,
and will continue to flash and repeat as long as the ENGINE FAULT STATUS
switch is set to Read. Record the codes flashed, and refer to table 1 for their
description. Additional information concerning troubleshooting with Flash Codes
can be found in Detroit Diesel® Troubleshooting Guide-DDEC IV.
D. Clearing Stored Flash Codes
Flash Code (s) recorded in the ECM computer memory will remain until erased by a
technician using the Diagnostic Data Reader (DDR). The clearing of stored Flash Codes
can only be done using the DDR. Disconnecting the generator set battery cables
will not clear codes. The DDR is more useful in reading Flash Codes and diagnosing
engine electronic faults than the CEL code process.
E. Reprogramming Engine Calibration
The DDR can be used to reprogram certain engine calibration parameters. Reprogram-
ming information can be found in Detroit Diesel® Troubleshooting Guide-DDEC IV.
F. ECM Connector Checkout
The Electronic Control Module (ECM) is mounted at the top forward end of the engine,
with the connector side to the right side of the unit.All system connections are environ-
mentally protected. Wiring harnesses of the ECM provide sensor signals from various
engine components; injectors; oil temperature and pressure; fuel temperature and pres-
sure; timing and sync reference sensors; and turbo boost pressure. Before repairing or
replacing any system component, as indicated by the diagnostic charts, you must dis-
connect the connector(s) associated with the suspected defective component. Check
connector for defects. Clean, straighten, or replace as required. If a problem was found,
connect all connectors previously disconnected. Then check the system to see if the
problem has been corrected.
G. Component Failure
Unless the unit is in the JET START mode and actively starting an engine, stop the
engine immediately should any component fail. Practically all engine failures give some
warning to the operator before the component fails and ruins the engine. Many engines
have been saved because alert operators heed warning signs such as a sudden drop in
oil pressure, unusual noises, etc., and immediately shutdown the engine.

CHAPTER 2
MAINTENANCE
SECTION 3
REMOVAL/INSTALLATION
1. GENERAL
Removal/Installation instructions for engine sub assemblies, i.e., water pump, fuel pump,
injectors, etc., can be found in the Detroit Diesel® engine Operation and Maintenance Man-
ual, Parts Catalog, and the Maintenance Shop Manual.
The Air Start Unit is designed for rugged, dependable, efficient performance. Component
selection, assembly and design have been directed toward dependability and extended trou-
ble-free operation. Major component removal, i.e., engine, compressor, etc., is not consid-
ered to be necessary. Removal of any major component may require extensive system and
structural disassembly, and should only be accomplished when all other methods of repair
and/or refit have been eliminated. Should major component removal become necessary, Tri-
lectron should be contacted for guidance. This chapter will concern itself with general
assembly/disassembly information.
2. TORQUE VALUES FOR GENERAL ASSEMBLY
The torque chart value (Chapter 5) is provided for reference when performing general
assembly of various components. These values should be used only if torque values are not
otherwise specified for a particular assembly.
The following conditions must be observed when using the general assembly torque values:
• Joints are assumed to be metal and rigid. Do not use these values where gaskets or
compressed material may be damaged by over-torquing.
• During disassembly, note bolt head marking and always reassemble the same hardware
or equivalent new hardware in the correct locations.
• When reusing previously removed hardware, apply the minimum values from the table.
• Reduce the table values by 20% when assembling plated hardware or phosphate coated
hardware.
• Reduce table values by 30% when molykote, white lead, or similar mixtures are used to
lubricate threads.
• Reduce the table values by 35% when torquing jam nuts (thin nuts).
• Special use column values in the table are for cap screws in gray iron castings when
thread length engagement is at least 1.5 times the cap screw diameter.
WARNING
BEFORE PERFORMING INSTALLATION OR REMOVAL PROCE-
DURES, TURN ENGINE OFF BY SETTING ENGINE ON/OFF SWITCH
TO OFF. DISCONNECT BATTERY LEADS FROM THE BATTERY (NEG-
ATIVE GROUND LEAD DISCONNECTED BEFORE THE POSITIVE
LEAD).
3. ENGINE/COMPRESSOR REMOVAL
The majority of all maintenance operations and rebuild can be accomplished with the engine
assembly mounted within the unit. Should the need arise where the engine or compressor
must be removed for replacement or other major maintenance operation, the removal must
be facilitated vertically through the roof. For engine removal, the radiator shroud and fan,
along with the engine air filter and exhaust system, must be removed.
For the actual removal step, a fork lift with a modified heavy pipe extension, or similar
device, is required. The engine or compressor must first have all associated hardware and
fittings removed, lifted sufficiently to clear lower members, then drawn out laterally until the
structural members are cleared.
A. Panel Removal (Refer to illustrations in Chapter 4)
The removal of the roof panels for engine or compressor removal is self-explanatory.
Remove only those panels necessary to provide clearance and access. Panels are
bolted in place utilizing insert nuts on the tubular members of the chassis frame.
B. Engine Removal/Installation (See figure 1)
Refer to Section 4-3 for assembly illustrations of various unit components and assem-
blies to aid in equipment removal and installation.
Refer to paragraph 4 for disassembly/assembly instructions for the engine/compressor
drive coupling.
• Equipment required:
• Hand and power tools normally found in any well equipped ground support
equipment maintenance facility.
• Fork lift with modified long reach rail for slight vertical lift and horizontal move-
ment of the engine.
(1) Drain and remove the radiator, shroud, and engine mounted fan blade.
(2) Disconnect all electrical wiring and cabling attached to the engine. Tag all dis-
connected cables and wires to aid in reassembly.
(3) Disconnect and remove fuel lines to the engine. Tag all disconnected fuel lines
to aid in reassembly.
(4) Disconnect and remove the engine exhaust assembly. The entire assembly
must be removed to provide the maximum clearance for the raising and removal
of the engine.
(5) Disconnect the flexible coupling from the engine drive shaft. Refer to paragraph
4 and to coupling manufacturer's information, Chapter 5.
(8) Attach the long reach rail to the engine spreader bar.
CAUTION
BEFORE REMOVING ENGINE MOUNTING BOLTS, REMOVE ALL
SLACK IN THE LIFT CHAINS. APPLY ENOUGH LIFTING FORCE TO
PREVENT THE ENGINE FROM SHIFTING WHEN MOUNTING BOLTS
ARE LOOSENED.
(9) Once the spreader bar and lifter hook has been attached to the engine, apply
enough lifting force to prevent the engine shifting when the mounting bolts are
removed. Remove front and rear engine mounting bolts.
(10) Raise the engine slightly to clear the mounting pad. Slowly withdraw the engine
from the unit interior. Utilize care that the engine does not snag or otherwise
damage unit wiring or equipment.
CAUTION
DO NOT PLACE ENGINE DIRECTLY ON TO THE GROUND OR FLAT
SURFACE, DAMAGE TO ENGINE OIL PAN WILL RESULT. PLACE
WOODEN BLOCKS UNDER THE FRONT AND REAR ENGINE MOUNTS
TO PROVIDE ADEQUATE CLEARANCE.
(11) To install the engine within the unit, reverse the removal procedure. Refer para-
graph 4 and to flexible coupling's manufacturer's installation instructions, Chap-
ter 5.
CAUTION
UTILIZE TORQUE VALUES FOR GENERAL ASSEMBLY WHEN
INSTALLING ENGINE MOUNTING BOLTS AND OTHER ATTACHING
HARDWARE.
(1) Disconnect all electrical wiring and cabling attached to the compressor. Tag all
disconnected cables and wires to aid in reassembly.
(2) Disconnect the flexible coupling from the compressor drive shaft. Refer para-
graph 4 and to coupling manufacturer's information, Chapter 5.
(3) Unbolt and remove the engine exhaust system.
(3) With the coupling guard removed, loosen and remove the 12 socket head
screws (M14x75) which mount the coupling hub (See Figure 5.) to the spacer/
coupling element.
(4) It should be possible to now slide the coupling element assembly slightly toward
the engine. Use cord or heavy tape diagonally across the rear of the engine to
hold the coupling element in place.
(5) With all other required components removed or disconnected, and using cau-
tion, it should now be possible to lift out the engine or compressor without further
coupling disassembly.
B. Coupling Installation
The following instructions are provided for installing both a new coupler assembly, or
reinstalling a previously disconnected/removed assembly. For reinstallation, ignore those
instructions which are not applicable to your degree of disassembly.
(1) Hub Installation (Compressor End)(See Figure 5.): Verify hub and shaft dimen-
sion to ensure that the proper size hub is being used. The hub will generally be
an "interference" or "shrink" fit which will require its being heated for installation.
Heating is generally accomplished in an oven or oil bath to a predetermined
temperature until the hub bore has expanded to the desired diameter. Identify
the final position of the hub with respect to the shaft and use a hose clamp or
similar device as a stop on the shaft to ensure proper positioning.
Measure and record the hub bore and shaft diameter using accurate microme-
ters. Compare the two measurements and determine the amount of hub bore
expansion required to slide the hub into position on the shaft. Allow for a certain
amount of heat in the hub to be transferred to the cooler shaft, causing the hub
bore to begin contracting to its original size while it is being installed. Use the fol-
lowing formula for calculating the temperature to expand the hub to the prede-
termined diameter.
• T1 = Temperature of shaft in degrees Fahrenheit.
• B1 = Original diameter of hub bore in inches.
• B2 = Desired diameter of hub in inches required to slide hub into position on
shaft.
Example: Shaft diameter 3.000 inches and hub bore 2.999 inches.
• T1 = 85°F; B1 = 2.999 inches, B2 = 3.002 inches
• T2 = 85 + [(166.7 x 1000) x (3.002/2.999 - 1)]
• T2 = 85 + [(166.7 x 1000) x (0.001)]T2 = 85 + 166.8 = 252°F
• T2 = T1 + [(166.7 x 1000) x (B2/B1 - 1)]
• T2 = Temperature in degrees Fahrenheit to expand hub bore to B2.
CAUTION
DO NOT HEAT A HUB WITH A CUTTING TORCH AND DO NOT HEAT A
HUB ABOVE 500°F (260°C), CRACKING OR BREAKING WILL OCCUR.
WARNING
DO NOT HEAT AN OIL BATH ABOVE THE FLASH POINT OF THE OIL,
AN EXPLOSION/FIRE WILL OCCUR.
(a) Heat the hub in an oven or oil bath to the predetermined temperature.
While the hub bore is being enlarged by heat, the shaft diameter may be
reduced by chilling with dry ice or other suitable means.
(b) Slide the hub onto the shaft to the predetermined stopping point.
(c) Check the runout of the hub for concentricity and squareness with the
shaft. The hub must run true with respect to the shaft or vibrations and
damage to the equipment will occur. If the runout for concentricity or
squareness exceeds 0.008 inches total, the reason for the excessive
runout must be found and corrected.
(2) Coupling Element Assembly (See Figure 5.): Bolt the ring inner coupling (Item 3)
to the coupling element (Item 4). Use Loctite® 242 thread locker on all fasteners
used in assembly. Tighten bolts evenly around circumference of the inner cou-
pling ring. Torque bolts (Item 8) to 34 to 37 ft.-lbs.
(3) Flanged Housing Assembly (See Figure 5.): Place the coupling element assem-
bly within the flanged housing (Item 1). Place the spacer ring (Item 9) against
the flanged side of the flanged housing assembly and position on engine fly-
wheel. Bolt the flanged housing (1) along with the spacer ring (9) to the engine
flywheel. Use Loctite® 242 thread locker on all fasteners used in assembly.
Tighten bolts evenly around circumference of the flanged housing. Torque bolts
(Item 2) to 95 to 100 ft.-lbs.
(4) Hub to Coupling Element Assembly (See Figure 5.): Insert the spacer (Item 5)
between the coupling element (4) and the Hub (6). Using socket head screws
(7) bolt through the hub, through the spacer to the coupling inner ring (3)
attached to the backside of the coupling element (4). Use Loctite® 242 thread
locker on all fasteners used in assembly. Tighten bolts evenly around circumfer-
ence of the hub. Torque bolts (Item 7) to 95 to 100 ft.-lbs.
(5) Coupler Guard: Install the coupler guard (See Figure 5.) to the completed
assembly.

ADJUSTMENTS AND TESTS
1. ENGINE ELECTRONIC GOVERNOR
A. Magnetic Pickup Unit
The Magnetic Pickup Unit (MPU) is located on the engine flywheel housing, right side.
With engine stopped, adjust the MPU to 0.020 inches (0.45 mm) from flywheel ring teeth.
Usually, backing out the MPU 3/4 turn after touching the ring gear teeth will achieve a
satisfactory air gap. Do not decrease to below 0.010 inches (0.25 mm). The MPU voltage
should be at least 1.5 VRMS during cranking. The MPU will have a measurable resis-
tance of 50-350 ohms.
NOTE
Magnetic Pickup Unit (MPU) voltage between terminals 5 and 6
should be at least 1.5 VRMS while cranking.
B. Electronic Governor
The engine operating speed, as part of its on-board computer system, is automatically
governed to precisely maintain programmed engine speeds. An integral magnetic sensor
monitors engine speed and provides this data to the ECM for control. Constant speed is
maintained by regulating engine fuel and operating parameters. The engine speeds of
table 1 are developed by the unit and are set by command signals from the Demand
VSG Control CCA A5.
2. AIR SYSTEM ADJUSTMENT AND SET-UP PROCEDURE

* *High altitude operation may require changing the idle speed to 1300 RPM.
The following procedure is only performed when a major component to the air flow or gover-
nor system has been replaced, or when unstable operation requires system setup. During
the procedure, should the adjustment of a component fail to provide the expected results, it
should be taken as an indication that the component is faulty. Replace the questionable
component and continue with the setup. Refer to paragraph 1 for basic governor control and
(10) Set MODE SELECTOR switch S1 to UNLOAD (engine at idle speed). Verify that
engine speed goes to 1100-1150 RPM and the outlet air pressure indicates 10±2
psig on control panel delivery air output pressure gauge (see figure 3) with air
delivery ball valve closed and 3-4 psig with ball valve open.

(11) Set delivery air over pressure switch as follows:
(a) Fully close air delivery outlet ball valve.
(b) Set MODE SELECTOR switch (see figure 3) to JET START.
(c) Adjust Air Delivery Regulator #1 (see figure 1) to obtain a reading of 45
psig on the control panel delivery air output pressure gauge (see figure 3),
and then adjust the Delivery Air Pressure Switch S10 (paragraph C, figure
4) until Air Unload Solenoid Valve (ULSOV) AS3 (see figure 1) energizes
and air starts bypassing each time the outlet pressure exceeds 45 psig.
(12) Open air delivery outlet ball valve. Observe that engine speed increases to
2300-2350 RPM.
(13) Adjust Air Delivery Regulator #1 (see figure 1) to obtain a reading of 40 psig on
the control panel delivery air output pressure gauge (see figure 3). Lock Air
Delivery Regulator #1.
(14) Close air delivery outlet ball valve. Verify that engine speed goes to 1750 -1850
RPM and the outlet air pressure indicates 40±2 psig on control panel delivery air
output pressure gauge (see figure 3).
(15) Open and close air delivery outlet ball valve. Observe engine speed with the ball
valve open (UNLOADED) will increase to 2300-2350 RPM and decrease to
1750 -1850 RPM with the ball valve closed (LOADED). With the valve in the
open or closed position, the outlet air pressure indicates 40±2 psig on control
panel delivery air output pressure gauge (see figure 3).
OVERSPEED SETUP
(16) Set MODE SELECTOR switch (see figure 3) to UNLOAD. Observe that engine
speed goes to 1100 -1150 RPM
(17) Open air delivery outlet valve.
(18) Set MODE SELECTOR switch (see figure 3) to JET START. Observe Jet Start
engine speed of 2300-2350 rpm. On Overspeed Circuit Card Assembly A3,
slowly adjust potentiometer on counter-clockwise until control panel OVER
SPEED fault light illuminates (see figure 2). Ensure Overspeed light (DS3) on
Fault Circuit Card Assembly A1 (see figure 2) illuminates. Engine will not shut
down when operating in Jet start mode.
(19) Set MODE SELECTOR switch (see figure 3) to UNLOAD. Engine will shut
down due to over speed fault.
(20) Adjust potentiometer on Overspeed Circuit Card Assembly A3 clockwise one full
turn. This completes Overspeed CCA A3 setup.
(21) Restart unit and cycle MODE SELECTOR switch (see figure 3) between the
UNLOADED, AIR COND, and JET START positions, allowing unit to stabilize,
and verify that the proper readings are present:
• UNLOADED – Idle speed 1100-1150 rpm
• AIR COND – 25-40(1) psig output pressure
• JET START – Engine speed approximately 2300 - 2350 rpm, 40 psig output
pressure.

CLEANING AND PAINTING
1. CLEANING
Cleanliness of the unit not only adds to the general appearance, but it is also a factor in
reducing the maintenance upkeep. A unit maintained with periodic cleaning will require less
repainting and will also help prevent the accumulations of abrasive grit on moving parts and
surfaces. Cleaning schedules should be devised by the user according to his environmental
and operating conditions. Painted surfaces require washing with a mild detergent and rins-
ing with clean water. A bristle brush (never wire) or spray gun may be used. Unpainted sur-
faces are cleaned using plain water and brush, approved solvents, or steam cleaning
equipment. Degreasers may be used to remove grease accumulations from non-lubricated
metal parts. Care should be taken with degreasers, as some brands will also remove or
damage painted surfaces. Clean electrical parts with a lint-free cloth, moistened with
approved solvents for electrical equipment.
CAUTION
DO NOT ALLOW SOAKING, SPRAYING OR STEAM CLEANING TO
AFFECT ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS OR WIRING. RUBBER COMPO-
NENTS SHOULD NOT BE CLEANED WITH SOLUTIONS HAVING A
PETROLEUM BASE SUCH AS KEROSENE, MINERAL SPIRITS, STOD-

Painted surfaces, in addition to presenting a good appearance, etc., protect the unit from
deterioration. Paint should be maintained on a non-scheduled, as required, basis. Depend-
ing on environmental and operational conditions, repaint the entire unit whenever it
becomes necessary.
CHAPTER 3
OVERHAUL / MAJOR REPAIR
Under normal operating conditions and proper preventive maintenance, the Air Start Unit should
provide excellent service for a period of 20,000 to 30,000 hours (depending on local conditions)
before considerations should be given to major repair or overhaul.
Overhaul or major repair of the air start power plant, i.e., the engine, should be accomplished in
accordance with the maintenance/overhaul recommendations of the manufacturer or their
authorized agents.
The compressor will normally require no overhaul other than normal maintenance or repair pro-
cedures. If a rebuild is found to be advisable, the manufacturer should be contacted for their
recommendations and/or procedures.
The Trilectron built and mounted equipment requires no scheduled overhaul. Normal mainte-
nance and repair of the unit and subsystems will maintain the equipment in proper working
order.
