Operation

All operation (setpoint adjustments, calibrations, monitoring) of the compressor unit is done through the Compact Logix PLC. For additional procedural information, refer to Compact Logix PLC Software Manual (35391CL).

Oil Inspection

WARNING

separator, see Figure 4-1. Oil Operating Levels. Drain or ﬁll oil as required. For oil draining and ﬁlling procedure, see Oil Charging and Oil Draining in Section 5.Oil Flow with Dual Oil Filters

Dual Oil Filters

On compressor units equipped with dual oil ﬁlters, only one ﬁlter should be in operation at a time.

NOTE

When working with LFG, NG or other dangerous or ﬂammable gases, ensure there are adequate ventilation and vapor detectors. Refer to national ﬁre and building codes. Failure to comply may result in serious injury or death.

WARNING

Avoid skin contact with any condensate or oil. Wear rubber gloves and a face shield when working with condensate or oil. Failure to comply may result in serious injury or death.

During operation, both oil ﬁlter outlet shut-off valves should be open. This will help minimize the sudden loss of oil pressure when switching between oil ﬁlters for servicing.

Refer to Oil Filter Replacement in Section 5 for further details.
