3.4 LUBRICATION GUIDE
Refer to Figure 3-1 for the fluid fill port location.
Sullair’s 4500P-7500 series compressors are filled
and tested at the factory with Sullube lubricant.
3.5 APPLICATION GUIDE
Sullair encourages its customers to participate in a
fluid analysis program with the fluid suppliers. In
some cases the analysis results suggest a fluid
change interval which differs from the User Manual.
Contact a Sullair representative for details.

CAUTION
Do not mix different types of lubricants. Mixing 
lubricants can cause malfunctions or compressor

C - When measured pressure loss exceeds 20 psig (1.3 bar).
D - When measured pressure loss exceeeds 10 psig (0.7 bar).
E -  When required as the result of fluid analysis or known contamination.
F - Does not require replacement under normal service conditions.
G - Every 2,000 hours.
NOTE
When performing a fluid
change or topping off the
fill, the proper level
should be at half of the
sight glass, with the
machine off.
Mixing, changing or add-
ing other lubricants within
