3.2 LUBRICATION GUIDE
For best value and longest uninterrupted ser-
vice, the LS---10 Series compressors are factory
filled and tested with a long life lubricant.
WARNING
!
Mixing of other lubricants within the compres-
sor unit will void all warranties!
If, due to availability or other reasons, other fluids
are required, follow Lubrication Guide 3.4 below.
WARNING
!
“The Plastic Pipe Institute recommends
against the use of thermoplastic pipe to trans-
port compressed air or other compressed
gases in exposed above ground locations, e.g.
in exposed plant piping.”
(I)
Sullube 32 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 rec-
ommended as indicated in the Operator’s
Manual.
For light---duty high---humidity service where
condensed moisture and emulsification (may-
onnaise) may occur, the fluid change interval
must be reduced to 300 hours maximum. A
non---detergent fluid with rust, oxidation and
foam inhibitors and good water separation char-
acteristics should be used.
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.
When ambient conditions exceed those noted
or if conditions warrant use of “extended” life lu-
bricants contact Sullair for recommendation.
3.3 APPLICATION GUIDE
Sullair encourages the user to participate in a
fluid analysis program with the fluid suppliers.
This could result in a fluid change interval differ-
ing from that stated in the manual. Contact your
Sullair dealer for details.
