3.2 LUBRICATION GUIDE-STANDARD COM-
PRESSORS
Sullair standard compressors are filled with Sullube
fluid as factory fill.
Mixing of other lubricants within the compressor
unit will void all warranties!
Sullube fluid should be changed every 8000 hours
or once a year, whichever comes first. The fluid
should be changed more frequently under severe
operating conditions, such as high ambient temper-
atures coupled with high humidity, or when high
particulate level, corrosive gases or strong oxidizing
gases are present in the air.
For other 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.
3.3 LUBRICATION GUIDE- 24KT COMPRESSORS
Sullair 24KT compressors are filled with a lubricant
which rarely ever needs to be changed. In the event
a change of fluid or make-up fluid is required, use
only Sullair 24KT fluid.
Mixing of other lubricants within the compressor
unit will void all warranties!
Sullair recommends that 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
instructions 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.
A 24KT sample should be sent in annually, after
the first year.
3.4 APPLICATION GUIDE
Sullair encourages the user to participate in a oil
analysis program with the oil suppliers. This could
result in an oil change interval differing from that
stated in the manual. Contact your Sullair dealer for
details.
