2.1 INTRODUCTION
Your new Sullair lubricated rotary screw air com-
pressor will provide you with a unique experience in
improved reliability and greatly reduced mainte-
nance.
Compared to other types of compressors, the
Sullair rotary screw is unique in mechanical reliabil-
ity, with minimal wear and no inspection required of
the working parts within the compressor unit.
Read Section 6 (Maintenance) to see how to keep
your air compressor in top operating condition.
Should any questions arise which cannot be
answered in the following text, call your nearest
Sullair representative or the Sullair Corporation
Service Department.
2.2 DESCRIPTION OF COMPONENTS
Refer to Figures 2-1. The components and assem-
blies of the air compressor are clearly shown. The
complete package includes compressor, electric
motor, compressor inlet system, compressor
discharge system, compressor cooling and
lubrication system, capacity control system and
“Supervisor II Control System” all mounted on a
structural steel frame.
On air-cooled models, the cooling package is
mounted within the package. The separate motor-
driven fan cooling package forces air through the
coolers, which removes the heat of compression
from the cooling fluid.
