3.2 LUBRICATION GUIDE
Refer to Figure 3-1 for location of fluid fill port. For best
value and longest uninterrupted service, the 1100e
through 1800e Series compressors are factory filled and
tested with Sullube lubricant.
CAUTION
Mixing of other lubricants within the
compressor unit will void all
warranties.
Refer to
Lubrication Change Recommendations and Maintenance
- Fluid Filter and Separator on page 18 if fluid change is
required.
WARNING
"The Plastic Pipe Institute
recommends against the use of
thermoplastic pipe to transport
compressed air or other compressed
gases in exposed above ground
locations, e.g. in exposed plant
piping." (I)
Sullube should not be used with PVC
piping systems. It may affect the bond
at cemented joints. Certain other
plastic materials may also be affected.
(I) Plastic Pipe Institute,
Recommendation B, Adopted
January 19, 1972.
Maintenance of all other components is still recommended
as indicated in the Operator’s Manual.
DO NOT MIX DIFFERENT TYPES OF FLUIDS.
Contamination of non-detergent mineral fluids with traces
of detergent motor fluids may lead to operational problems
such as foaming, filter plugging, orifice or line plugging.
NOTE
Flush system when switching
lubricant brands.
