2 INSPECTION AND TROUBLE SHOOTING
2.1 Periodical inspection
These inspections should be made during the normal shut-down periods as much
as possible, so the compressor is always ready to operate when required. If, at
that time, the number of running hours slightly differs from the scheduled period
below, the inspection should nevertheless be carried out.
In this way it will not be necessary to stop the compressor at inconvenient times.
The frequency of inspections is dependent on the type of installation, operating
conditions and local regulations. In the case of automatically controlled plants,
the periodical inspection are particularly important. The table below sums up all
the points on the compressor that have to be inspected or maintained along with
inspection and maintenance frequencies.
2.2 Survey of periodical inspections
Apart from the check points in the table below, the sound produced by the
compressor also provides an indication of its mechanical condition. If abnormal
sounds are audible, their cause should be traced and removed immediately in
order to prevent serious breakdowns.
