Item # PL-40, PL-Series Pressure-Lubricated Compressor
|
|
|
|
|
|
PL-Series compressors are loaded with features designed for day-in, day-out performance. For example,
Gardner Denver’s unique automotive-type domed piston design allows the use of large diameter, low lift valves,
while minimizing clearance volume for maximum air delivery.
The PL-Series compressor has been designed to operate in extreme duty applications and is also
an alternative to the R-Series unit. Because the PL-Series can operate up to 250 PSI in remote
locations or in off-level operations, it is a true industrial use compressor. Gardner Denver is so
confident in the way it has engineered and built its products, it offers a 5-year warranty on the
compressor pump. The PL-Series features domed pistons, integral cylinder head, disc valves and
an oil pump that provides lubricant to all crucial parts of the compressor. From its extra heavy-duty
design to its ease of maintenance, the Gardner Denver PL-Series exemplifies reliability, durability and quality.

Select the Options That Match Your Needs (To Request Information)
Many options are available to help you develop a Gardner Denver
compressor package that exactly matches your specific operating
requirements.
1. Magentic Starter
For thermal overload protection. Required for units
3 horsepower and above. Starters available as mounted or
unmounted.
2. Air-Cooled or Water-Cooled Aftercooler
The factory mounted, heavy duty, air-cooled aftercooler
effectively reduces up to 65% of the moisture from discharged
compressed air.
3. Automatic Tank Drain (Pneumatic)
Automatically removes water from air receiver upon demand.
Eliminates the need for manual purging.
4. Vibration Isolators
Isolates the compressor unit from the foundation or floor.
Reduces noise and protects the unit from any out-of-level floor
situation that could cause vibration and damage.
5. Low Oil Level Monitor
Low Oil Level Monitor shuts down the unit when oil levels are
below an adequate level. Prevents the unit from restarting if oil
levels are not at an adequate level.
6. Refrigerated Dryer
Cools compressed air to a 33°F-39°F dew point, eliminating
additional downstream condensation in the air line. Normally,
a dryer should be used in conjunction with an aftercooler.
7. DPR Control Panel
The Microprocessed Duplex Relay Panel was created for
controlling a duplex air compressor package. The controller
includes visual maintenance and shut down alarms.
8. Gardner Denver Compressor Lubricants
AEON™ lubricants are blended specifically for Gardner Denver
compressors for use in harsh compressor environments. They
are sourced from extremely stable base stocks and enhanced
with carefully selected additive packages to provide long
life and superior protection. AEON™ lubricants are suitable
for a variety of applications and are available as a mineral
oil, synthetic or food-grade synthetic. Available in 55-gallon
drums, five-gallon pails, one-gallon bottles and one-quart
bottles.

fact, we introduced the first single-stage compressor in
1919 and have continuously improved its design through
innovations in material, production techniques and
quality control.
Proven Dependability
You rely on compressed air to perform many tasks
efficiently. Gardner Denver knows that reliability is one
of the main reasons for a purchase. Our slow speed,
built-in efficiency through design, and the longest
compressor warranty in the industry make Gardner
Denver compressors the proven choice!
High Performance
R & PL-Series compressors are loaded with features

Compressor Pump Warranty
Each new Gardner Denver Assembled Unit has a five (5) year
warranty on the compressor pump only, against defects in
materials or workmanship under normal use and service, from
the date of installation or sixty-six (66) months from the date of
shipment by Gardner Denver or a Gardner Denver distributor,
whichever may occur first.
The five-year extended warranty covers parts and labor and is
prorated over the five years as follows:
Year One — 100% coverage
Year Two — 90% coverage
Year Three — 80% coverage
Year Four — 70% coverage
Year Five — 60% coverage
Head valves are warranted for Year One only. Gardner Denver
makes no warranty on components and/or accessories
furnished to Gardner Denver by third parties, such as electric
motors, gasoline engines and controls. These are warranted
only to the extent of the original manufacturer ’s warranty
to Gardner Denver. Electric motors must be equipped with
thermal overload protection to have warranty consideration.
The extended five-year warranty will apply to ASME air
receivers if they are installed on rubber vibro isolator
pads or approved equivalent.
5 Year Electric Motor
Any Gardner Denver package purchased after January 1, 2003
built with a Baldor electric motor are warranted for 60
months from start-up or 63 months from shipment. Other
manufacturer’s motors furnished due to customer request or
special requirements carry the motor manufacturer ’s warranty.
Package Warranty
Gardner Denver warrants each new air compressor package
to be free from defects in material and workmanship under
normal use and service for a period of one year (12 months)
from the date of installation or 15 months from the date of
shipment by Gardner Denver. Units manufactured in Canada
have a pump and package warranty for two (24 months) years.
Limited Warranty
Warranty shall not apply to any equipment which has been
subjected to misuse, neglect or accident, nor shall it apply
to any equipment that has been repaired or altered by any
person(s) not authorized by Gardner Denver. Failure caused by
lack of proper maintenance is not covered by warranty.
In no event shall Gardner Denver be liable for consequential
damages or contingent liabilities arising out of failure of any
compressor or part to operate properly. When a compressor
pump or component is changed or replaced during the
warranty period, the new/replaced item(s) is warranted for
only the remainder of the original warranty period. Complete
warranty details are included in compressor operating manual.
U.L. Standards
Gardner Denver, in common with other major, industrial
compressor manufacturers, does not market compressors
which are U.L. listed. In general, U.L. is concerned with
electrical components that may be utilized on compressor
units, rather than a complete compressor package or system.
All electrical components used on Gardner Denver compressors
are U.L. listed. Each component – motor, starter, pressure
switch, control panel – carries a U.L. identification mark on the
nameplate or inside the electrical enclosure cover. The mark
will be the letters “UR ” reversed (as if held up to a mirror),
indicating the item is “recognized” by U.L. On tankmounted
units, the air receiver tank and tank pressure relief valve are
ASME Code. The tank carries a National Board Registration
number which appears on a stamped, metal plate welded to
the tank.
All units are built to ISO 9001 standards.
