Fluid Life Fluid Filter

Quinsyn GL or GLF fluid can be used for one (1) year or 8,000 hours depending upon application and recommendations from the fluid analysis. Draining of the fluid should be done while the fluid is hot to carry away more impurities. It is strongly suggested that a reputable fluid analysis program be followed to establish fluid change intervals.

A free fluid analysis service is provided with the use of Quinsyn GL or Quinsyn GLF fluid. This analysis provides important information regarding the performance of the fluid and assists in detecting any special problems which might arise. Fluid samples should be taken at the time of fluid filter changes or at 1,000 hour intervals. Fluid sample bottles, labels and instructions are provided with the compressor package at the time of shipment. Additional sample bottles may be purchased through your distributor.

!WARNING

Hot fluid under pressure could cause death or serious injury. Do not remove the fluid fill plug and attempt to add fluid to the fluid reservoir while the compressor is in operation or when the system is under pressure. Be sure that the compressor’s red mushroom stop button is pushed in and that the main power disconnect switch is in the off position and locked out to assure that the compressor will not start automatically or by accident. Close unit shut-off valve to eliminate buffing air venting.

The fluid filter is a spin on, full flow unit. Replacement of the filter requires spinning off the complete cartridge and replacing it with a new one. USE GENUINE

QUINCY REPLACEMENT FILTERS ONLY.

The initial filter change should occur after the first 500 hours of operation. During normal service, the filter cartridge should be replaced under the following conditions, whichever occurs first:

•As indicated by the fluid filter maintenance indicator when the fluid is up to it’s operating temperature.

•Every 1,000 hours.

•Every fluid change.

Air Filter

A heavy-duty air filter is standard on all QSD™ compressors. This air filter uses a dry type element. Air passes through the filter element with an efficiency of 99.9% (as tested by SAE J726 test code specifications). To change the element, unscrew the strap bolts and remove and replace the old element. Tighten the bolts snugly after making certain the element is seated correctly on its mounting base.

NOTE

Intake filtration equipment supplied from the factory may not be adequate for extremely dirty applications or some forms of dust or vapors. It is the customer’s responsibility to provide adequate filtration for those conditions. Warranty will be void if a failure is determined to be caused by inadequate filtration.
