f. Dismantle and clean discharge separator automatic drain.
Yearly
g. Check daily operating records for intercooler and aftercooler
efficiency. Clean cooler cores if required. The preferred method
of cleaning the exterior is to blow the core off with compressed
air in a direction parallel to the fins in order not to damage them.
If a pressure washer is used care must be taken to avoid wetting
any electrical connections. Contact factory for more information.
h. Check daily operating records for oil cooler efficiency. Clean
cooler core exterior if necessary. If the inside of the oil cooler
needs cleaning, disconnect the cooler from the oil plumbing. Oil
passages, when slightly fouled, are to be cleaned with ethylene
perchlorate or an equivalent solvent. Cleaning time is between
10 and 30 minutes. After cleaning, blow out the solvent with
compressed air.
WARNING:
Take care when using solvent so that it is not allowed to
contaminate the surrounding areas. Consult the solvent supplier's
Material Safety Data Sheet for application and disposal requirements.
i. Inspect safety valve for abnormal wear or damage.
WARNING:
Federal, State, and Local regulations require periodic
testing of the Safety Valve by a certified testing agency. It is the
responsibility of the compressor owner to have the valve properly
tested at the mandated intervals.
j. Motor lubrication should be at the motor manufacturer's
recommended intervals.
k. Test low oil
ressure shutdown.
l. Test all tem
erature shutdowns.

Lubrication
a. The correct lubricating oil is a good quality turbine oil containing
rust and oxidation inhibitors and corresponding to ISO VG 68.
DO NOT mix different brands or grades of oil. The compressor
was initially filled with 76 Products Company turbine oil ISO VG
68 having a viscosity of 336 SUS @ 100
°
F (38
°
C). If necessary
to add oil and this brand is not available, drain completely and
refill with a suitable replacement.
DO NOT MIX LUBRICANTS
WARNING:
Do not add or drain lube oil while the compressor is
operating. The compressor must be off, and power disconnected,
before servicing can be performed. For the safety of the maintenance
personnel, lock-out and tag out procedures must be strictly followed.
