Compressor Unit Inspections Prior to
Storage or Installation
The compressor unit must be inspected prior to instal-
lation since components could have come loose and/or
damaged during shipment or moving.
• Check for loose bolts, particularly the compressor
and motor mounting nuts.
• Check for bent or damaged components. The com-
pressor unit should have also been inspected prior to
off-loading, see Delivery Inspection.
• Check that the nitrogen pressure is still holding pres-
sure. The pressure gauge is located at the discharge
bleed valve on the block and bleed assembly. Any
leaks must be
fi
xed and the system purged and re-
charged with dry nitrogen.
Recommended On-site Tools
The tools recommended to have on site are important
for troubleshooting, inspections and compressor unit
operation. Besides general mechanic tools, these tools
are recommended:
• Dial Indicator (0.001” Graduation, 0”-1” Range) with
12” Adjustable Arm and Magnetic Base
• Feeler Gauge Set, 0.0015”-0.020” Range, 12” blade
length
• Infrared Heat Gun
• Oil Pump (maximum of 2-3 GPM with motor ap-
proved for Division 1 or Division 2 and with ability to
overcome suction pressure)
• Sockets and wrenches up to 2-1/2” (63.5 mm)
• Torque Wrenches (with ranges from 0 to 600 ft-lbs)
• Voltmeter
AIR COOLED OIL COOLERS
The following are general recommendations. Refer to
speci
fi
c air cooled oil cooler manufacturer instructions
for storage recommendations.
• If the coolers are to be stored or not operated for an
extended period of time, the fan motors may ingress
moisture if they are not protected or operated regu-
larly. In severe cases, the moisture will reduce the in-
sulation level of the windings or cause rusting of the
bearings necessitating removal for repairs at a motor
repair facility. This is a common problem with large
generating installations when the coolers are often
ready but commissioning of the main turbine-gener-
ator is delayed for several months.
• The simplest remedy for installed coolers is to oper-
ate the fan motors for a few hours every week dur-
ing the downtime period until regular operation
resumes. The fan motors on stored coolers must be
protected from the elements by covering them with
waterproof tarps.
