CAUTION
CONDITIONS IN WHICH THE UNIT IS RUNNING MAY REQUIRE CHANGING THE OIL FILTER
MORE OFTEN. ALWAYS RENEW THE OIL FILTER AT EACH OIL CHANGE.
An oil filter restriction indicator is provided so that the pressure drop across the filter, (filter
condition) may be checked. When/if the indicator shows red, (rated pressure, normal operating
temperature) change the filter.
Oil Separator Element Change Interval........................................................................as required.
An oil separator restriction indicator is provided so that the pressure drop across the separator
element may be checked.
CAUTION
ALWAYS CHECK THE SEPARATOR DRAIN LINE, DRAIN LINE CHECK VALVE (INSTALLED
POSITION AND CONDITION) AND DRAIN LINE FILTER FOR DAMAGE OR PLUGGING BEFORE
CONDEMNING A SEPARATOR ELEMENT.
OBSERVE THE SEPARATOR ELEMENT RESTRICTION INDICATOR.
IF THE INDICATOR SHOWS RED, RENEW THE SEPARATOR ELEMENT. (RATED
PRESSURE, NORMAL OPERATING TEMPERATURE.)
LUBRICATION - COMPRESSOR
The useful life of compressor oil depends on
the quality of the oil and the conditions in
which the unit is operating.
For these reasons oil and oil filter change
intervals are to be determined by oil sampling
and analysis.
Oil sampling and analysis is recommended
every 200 hours or compressor operation at
least until an oil/oil filter change pattern or
schedule is established.
The quality of the oil is left to the oil
manufacturer.
The responsibility for testing and evaluating
useful oil life is left to the oil manufacturer
and/or the compressor end user.
It is recommended that LeROI SSL-50 or
(partial synthetic) SSL-46 synthetic lubricant
be used.
Either of these lubricants may be obtained,
conveniently packaged, from your nearest
LeROI distributor.
If SSL-50 or SSL-46 is not available, contact
your local lubricant supplier for a lubricant
which meets the specifications in Table I.
LUBRICATION - ELECTRIC MOTOR
Refer to the motor manufacturer’s
recommendation for motor bearing lubrication.
