The device manual describes the Ajax Compressor DPC 2804 LE / Non-LE, an engine-compressor unit designed for oil and gas applications. This comprehensive manual covers installation, operation, and maintenance procedures for the Ajax series compressor frames, emphasizing safety, performance, and longevity.
The Ajax Compressor DPC 2804 LE / Non-LE is a reciprocating engine-compressor unit primarily used in the oil and gas industry. It functions by compressing natural gas, a critical process in gas production, transmission, and storage. The unit integrates an engine and a compressor, operating on a two-cycle principle. The engine provides the power to drive the compressor cylinders, which then increase the pressure of the gas. The manual details the basic design, including the engine and frame, piston, power cylinder, jet cell, compressor cylinder, lubrication system, piston rods, and fuel system. The two-cycle principle of operation involves distinct phases: compression, power, and scavenging, which are fundamental to its gas compression capabilities. The unit is designed for both LE (Low Emissions) and Non-LE configurations, catering to different environmental and operational requirements.
The manual provides a wealth of technical data, including general specifications, power and RPMs, basic engine specifications, compressor specifications, and auxiliary systems.
The Ajax Compressor is designed for robust and reliable operation in demanding environments.
The manual places a strong emphasis on preventive maintenance and troubleshooting to ensure the long-term reliability and performance of the compressor.
The manual emphasizes the importance of proper training for personnel operating and maintaining the equipment, recommending GE Oil & Gas Compression Systems LLC's AJAX Reciprocating Compressor Training. It also highlights the confidential and proprietary nature of the information contained within, intended solely for the use and maintenance of Ajax series compressor frames.
