LVEA Purge Air Compressor Kobelco

The purge air system is up and running again. The Kobelco air compressor had shut down on an over temperature alarm which has been determined to be an open circuit RTD.

Temps now after one hour of run time are:

 

1st air discharge - 287F

2nd air suction - 85 F

2nd air discharge - measured at 210F Front panel says 65F(1k resistor)
