With a Sullair compressor, there is no mainte-
nance or inspection of the internal parts of the
compressor unit permitted in accordance with the
terms of the warranty.
Sullair 24KT compressors are filled with a long life
lubricant. In the event a change of fluid is required,
use only Sullair 24KT fluid.
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. The sample kit with
instructions and self-addressed container is to be
supplied by your Sullair dealer at start-up. The user
will receive an analysis report with recommenda-
tions.
Fluid is injected into the compressor unit in large
quantities and mixes directly with the air as the
rotors turn, compressing the air. The fluid flow has
three basic functions:
1. As coolant, it controls the rise of air temperature
normally associated with the heat of compres-
sion.
2. Seals the leakage paths between the rotors and
