Compressor Unit Installation

Once the foundation has cured, the compressor unit can be placed on the foundation, see Figure 4. Foundation with Housekeeping Pads Dimensions - Top View and Figure 5. Housekeeping Pad Dimension Detail - Top View. With the appropriate material handling equipment, lift the compressor unit by locations shown on the Vilter GA drawing and slowly place it on the foundation housekeeping piers. As per the Vilter GA drawing, ensure the compressor unit is correctly placed on the foundation. Once placed, use the spherical washers directly under the compressor as the surface to level the compressor unit, see Figure 6 - Compressor with Spherical Washers. Place shims under the feet of the compressor unit, as needed, until it is leveled, see Figure 7 - Concrete Pad Housekeeping Detail. Select the correct drill bit and drill thru the anchor bolt hole in the mounting feet of the compressor unit to the depth called for on the Vilter foundation drawing. Finally using the HILTI instructions, put your anchor bolts in place and wait for them to cure. Then place the nuts on the anchor bolts to finger tight and prepare to grout.
