Figure 6-4: Separator Element (Replacement Element P/N 260017-001)
4. Remove the separator element.
5. Scrape the old gasket material from the cover and the flange on the sump. Be sure to
keep all scrapings from falling inside tank.
6. Install the element with bonded gaskets, making sure the staples in the gaskets come
in contact with the metal surface of the bolt ring and cover. DO NOT use gasket
sealer as it can insulate the staples causing the element not to be properly grounded
for operation.
7. Replace the sump cover and bolts. Run the cover bolts in finger tight, then gradually
tighten in a crisscross pattern in four to five steps. ALWAYS tighten the bolts
alternately at opposite sides of the cover. NEVER tighten bolts adjacent to each
other. Torque bolts to 55 to 75 ft. lbs.
8. Reconnect all piping.
9. Clean the fluid return line and clear the orifice prior to restarting the compressor.
