MAINTENANCE
6.1 GENERAL
This compressor requires a minimal amount of
inspections and maintenance. The Supervisor™
Controller and other indicators alert the operator to
situations requiring maintenance, or fault conditions.
6.2 DAILY OPERATION
Prior to starting the compressor, it is necessary to
check the fluid level in the sump. Should the level be
low, simply add the necessary amount. If the addition
of fluid becomes too frequent, a simple problem has
developed which is causing this excessive loss. See
the Section 7: Troubleshooting under Excessive
Fluid Consumption for a probable cause and remedy.
After a routine start has been made, observe the
Supervisor control panel and be sure it monitors the
correct readings for that particular phase of
operation. After the compressor has warmed up, it is
recommended that a general check of the overall
compressor and Supervisor be made to assure that
the compressor is running properly.
6.3 MAINTENANCE AFTER
INITIAL 50 HOURS OF
OPERATION

maintenance actions are required to clean the
system of any foreign materials. Perform the
following maintenance operations:
1. Clean the return line strainer. Refer to

2. Clean the return line orifice.
6.4 MAINTENANCE EVERY 2000
HOURS

using instructions shown in the Lubrication Guide.
