5 Maintenance and Inspection 
Screw Compressor J-series  5.4 Disassembly and Assembly of the Compressor 
5-21 
 
For either of the methods above, prepare a device flow sheet for the work, check the necessary valve 
operation on the flow sheet and on the device, and specify valve operation and device/tube connection 
on the flow sheet. 
Prepare one flow sheet for the foreman and one for displaying in the work area. 
Also, make a refrigerant recovery procedure showing the conditions of the workplace and make sure all 
workers have read and understand it before starting the work. 
 
  Make sure that all risk assessment checks, including checking the work contents 
and procedure, are implemented before starting work. Neglecting these checks 
will lead to an increase in industrial accidents to a level that cannot be ignored. 
  Perform sufficient ventilation during the work. 
 
 
 
5.4.4  Removing the Compressor 
 
1.  Turn off the main motor power. 
2.  Close the suction stop valve, discharge stop valve, and liquid supply stop valve. 
3.  Perform refrigerant disposed from the compressor. Maintain sufficient ventilation when working. 
4.  Open the capacity control solenoid valve and variable Vi solenoid valve manually, and dispose oil 
and refrigerant inside the cylinder. 
5.  Turn off the control power. 
6.  Disconnect the Vi position sensor connector. 
7.  Remove the coils from the capacity control solenoid valve and variable Vi solenoid valve. 
 
  After turning off the motor main power, control power, and power for the other 
equipments, always perform lockout/tagout to prevent any inadvertent operation 
to turn on the equipment.   
  After closing the suction stop valve, discharge stop valve, and liquid supply stop 
valve, always perform lockout/tagout to prevent any inadvertent opening of these 
valves (lockout/tagout). 
  If there is residual high-pressure gas/refrigerant or oil dissolved in the 
refrigerant, the gas and oil may blow off when closed valves (components) are 
opened. This may result in injury such as frostbite and loss of vision. Always 
check and confirm the pressure in the compressor, before opening any pipe 
connections and valves. 
8.  Disconnect the pipe connections and remove the lug bolts 
from the compressor base. 
9.  Pull out the parallel pin between motor spacer and 
compressor, and remove the bolts. 
10. Using lifting equipment, remove the compressor from the 
motor spacer. 
11. Put place the lifting compressor on a work bench like the 
right photograph.
