“The Plas tic Pipe Institute recommends against the
use of thermoplastic pipe to transport compressed
air or other compressed gases in exposed above
ground locations, e.g. in e xposed plant piping.” (I)
Sullube should not be used with PVC piping sys-
tems. It may affect the bond at cemented joints. Cer-
tain other plastic materials may also be affected.
(I) Plastic Pipe Institute, Recommendation B,
Adopted January 19, 1972.
Maintenance of all other components is still recom-
mended as indicated in the Operator’s Manual.
Sullair encourages the user to participate in a fluid
analysis program with the fluid suppliers. This could
result in a fluid change interval differing from that
stated in the manual. Contact your Sullair dealer for
details.
3.3 LUBRICATION GUIDE--24KT COMPRESSORS
Sullair 24KT compressors are filled with a lubricant
which rarely needs to be changed. In the event a
change of fluid is required, use only Sullair 24KT
fluid.
W ARNING
!
Mixing of other lubricants within the compressor
unit will void all warranties!
Sullair recommends that a 24KT sample be taken at
the first filter change and sent to the factory for
analysis. This is a free service. A sample kit with in-
structions and self--addressed container is to be
supplied by your Sullair Representative at start--up.
The user will receive an analysis report with recom-
mendations.
3.4 LUBRICATION GUIDE--OPTIONAL FLUID
Sullair compressors may use SRF 1/4000 fluid as
an optional factory fill.
W ARNING
!
Mixing of other fluids within the compressor will
void all warranties!
SRF 1/4000 fluid should be changed every 4000
hours or once a year, whichever comes first. The
fluid should be changed more frequently under se-
vere operating conditions, such as high ambient
temperatures coupled with high humidity, or when
high particulate level, corrosive gases or strong oxi-
dizing gases are present in the air.
For extended life synthetic lubricants contact the
nearest Sullair representative.
Maintenance of all other components is still recom -
mended as indicated in the Operator’s Manual.
