What our service work and the manufacturer documentation say about keeping this model running.
Monitor suction and discharge conditions, temperatures, vibration and capacity-control behavior in accordance with the vessel procedures. Inspect coolers, valves, filters, drains, bearings and lubrication system where applicable. Check for air, gas, oil and cooling-water leakage and investigate recurring trips rather than repeatedly restarting the machine. Function-test unloading, capacity-control and protective devices using approved procedures. Keep system cleanliness and material compatibility under control. Refer to manufacturer and class documentation for exact clearances, alarm limits and overhaul criteria.
Keep model-correct seals or packing, valve or compression-element service parts, bearings, filters, gaskets and capacity-control or unloader components recommended by the manufacturer. Service-critical materials must match the handled medium. Confirm all parts against the compressor serial number and application.
