2.1 Installation Guidelines
2.1.1 Required Component—Inlet Gas Scrubber
An appropriate inlet gas scrubber is
REQUIRED
to remove liquids from the gas prior to compression. If
there is potential for liquid slugging, a suitable trap must be installed to prevent liquid from flooding and
damaging the Compressor.
NOTE
Failing to use an appropriate inlet gas scrubber to remove liquids from the gas prior to
compression can cause flooding and damage the Compressor.
2.1.2 General Installation Guidelines
Follow these general guidelines for installation:
• The Compressor Module must be installed and operated in compliance with all applicable codes and
regulations.
• The system must be installed on a level surface.
• Install pipe unions or flanges to connect the system to the inlet and discharge piping for ease of
service.
• Install isolation valves on the inlet and discharge piping.
• A common ground must be connected between the Compressor Module and the
Compressor Package chassis. This ground must comply with the National Electric Code (NEC) and
any other applicable codes.
• Solid debris also must be removed from the gas prior to compression. When required, use a
5 to 10-micron inlet filter to remove debris from the gas stream. The degree of filtration required
depends on the specific application.
2.2 Inlet and Discharge Pressures
Refer to
Table 1
for acceptable inlet and discharge pressure levels.
Table 1
Inlet and discharge pressure limits
Type
Level
Operating Guidelines
Minimum Inlet
Pressure
0.75 psig / 2" water
column (model specific)
Consult factory for operations below 0.0 psig.
Maximum Inlet
Pressure
10 / 25 psig
(model specific)
Operation at pressures above 25 psig will result in:
• Excessive oil carryover
• Loss of oil from the Compressor Module
Discharge
Pressure
Range
70 psig
to
190 psig
(depends on model)
When the discharge pressure of the Compressor Module reaches
the maximum, which ranges from 70 to 190 psig, depending on the
model (see
Compressor Module Nomenclature
on page
iv
):
• The Compressor Module goes into high discharge pressure
recycle if equipped.
• The Compressor Module’s bypass regulator diverts gas from the
high-pressure side to the low-pressure side of the module.
All Compressor Modules must be equipped with pressure-limiting
or relief devices.
Minimum
Differential
Pressure
70 psi
A minimum pressure differential of 70 psi between inlet and
discharge pressure is required for proper operation.
