Maintenance for the compressor assembly consists
of checking the operation of the oil return system and
changing the dehydrator, checking and changing the
oil, checking and changing the oil lters, checking the
operation of the oil heater, checking the operation of
the oil pump, and observing the operation of the com-
pressor.
Internal wearing of compressor parts could be a
serious problem caused by improper lubrication,
brought about by restricted oil lines, passages, or dirty
oil lters. If the unit is shutting down on (HOT) High
Oil Temperature or Low Oil Pressure (OP), change the
oil lter element. Examine the oil lter element for the
presence of aluminum particles. Aluminum gas seal
rings can contact the impeller and account for some
aluminum particles to accumulate in the oil lter, espe-
cially during the initial start up and rst several months
of operation. However, if aluminum particles continue
to accumulate and the same conditions continue to stop
the unit operation after a new lter is installed, notify
the nearest YORK ofce to request the presence of a
YORK Service Technician.
