Pre Start-up Checklist

1. Check the name plate on the top cover of the compressor frame for the design limitations for the compressor model such as rod load, maximum and minimum speed, discharge temperature . Check and record Frame Soft Foot readings. More than 0.002 inches (0.05 mm) pull-down a any frame foot requires correction.

Check that the apropriate crosshead guide support shimming is in place. Check the crosshead running clearances. Top is checked by inserting 0.5 inch (12.7 mm) wide feelers from one side edge across to the opposite side, at both ends. See Technical Manual, Section 1, Clearances for limits. Bottom is checked with a 0.0015 inches (0.038 mm) feeler at the (4) corners. Feeler insertion is 0.50 inches (13 mm) maximum at each corner. Record feeler values below:

Check the piping, bottle fits and supports to insure they do not induce stress on the compressor. Check and record compressor to driver alignment (installed on site-cold ). Maximum allowable 0.005 inches (0.13 mm) TIR. Record dial indicator reading in inches (mm) at the 3, 6, 9 and 12 o' clock positions on lines pro-vided or attach alignment tool print-out

Check the compressor crankcase for proper level, (Approximately 7/8 full in site glass, prior to starting). Check the Ariel lube sheet and Lubrication Specification for proper oil grade and viscosity for the service. Check the compressor crankcase oil level controler for proper installation, operation, level, and that it is properly vented. Insure that the crankcase oil supply isolation valve is open. Check the crankcase low level shutdown.

Insure the appropriate Ariel oil filter element is installed. Prime the oil filter element, and all lube oil piping with oil. Verify a low oil pressure shutdown is installed and tubed correctly to the downstream side of the oil filter. Test the operation of the low oil pressure shutdown. Verify there is an oil cooler and high temperature shutdown for the oil into the compressor frame. Check the setpoint for the high compressor oil temperature- 190F (88C) maximum. Check the installation of the temperature control valve ( blending mode is prefered). Check the crankcase breather element to insure it is open to atmosphere and clean. Check the force feed lubricator box for proper level. Prime the force feed lubrication system. Verify the operation of the force feed lubrication system no flow shutdown. Check and record the color of the force feed blow out disc. See Lubrication section of the Technical Manual for disc ratings. Check the lubricator instruction plate or "Parts Book" Cylinder Lubrication Sheet for proper lube feed rate. Record the recommended rates. Seconds

Verify there a working vibration shutdown mounted on the compressor and that it is installed properly. Record alarm and shut down settings. Insure the primary and secondary packing-case, and the cross-head-distance-piece vents and drains open, and tubed to a safe atmoshpere. Record the method of suction pressure control Check and verify operation of the suction pressure, inter-stage pressure and discharge pressure shutdowns. Record alarm and shutdown settings. Verify the safety relief valves are installed and working to protect cylinders and piping for each stage of compression. Check and verify the operation of the gas discharge temperature shutdowns. Record alarm and shutdown settings.

Insure the gas suction lines been cleaned/blown out to remove water, slag, dirt, etc.. Verify installation of temporary screens been installed at cylinder suction. Record mesh rating. Verify operation of the pre-lube system. Motor driven, unattended start, or large frame models prelube at 10 psig (0.7 bar g ) & 30 seconds minimum For engine driven units, roll the machine with the starter to make sure it is free. The oil pressure should come up noticeably while rolling on the starter. For other drivers, bar the machine over by hand to ensure it rolls free. Verify the driver rotation matches the compressor rotation arrow. Check the torque on all gas contianment, hold down bolting and other fasteners where loosening could result in a safety hazard or equipment fail-ures including: gas nozzle flanges, valve caps, cylinder heads, compressor rod packing, hold down, crosshead guide support and coupling bolting. For machines compressing a combustible gas, purge the piping and compressor to remove all air. Review the start-up instructions for all other components of the package. Insure the compressor skid properly grounded to a suitable earth ground. Complete the required review of the Start-Up and Operating Instructions for the unit with the unit operator.

After Start-up Checklist

*1. Insure the oil pressure comes up immediately. Record initial pressure at operating speed. PSI *2. *3. *4. Insure the low oil pressure shutdown is set at 35 psig (2.4 bar g ) and is active. Verify the lube oil pressure set at 50 to 60 psig (3.5 to 4.2 bar) at operating speed and temperature. Reference Technical Manual, Section 4 List final setting. Check the oil filter pressure gauges. Record the initial differential. PSI *5. Record the oil filter maximum differential, reference value listed on filter information plate on compressor top cover. PSI 6. Listen and feel for any strange noises or vibration in the compressor or piping. List any occurances.

Check the operation and record the frequency of the scrubber dumps. Ensure the scrubber high level shutdowns are working. Record tank levels that would indicate the amount of liquids being removed from the gas. Is there any indication of sands or oxides in the gas? Check and record the overspeed shutdown setting. Check primary packing vents to ensure that the piston rod packings are sealing properly. Check the operation of all safety functions to ensure shutdown of unit upon indication.

*17. Check and record "hot" alignment readings after reaching normal operating temperatures and components become heat soaked? Shutdown, vent gas system and record dial indicator readings, in the hot condition within 30 minutes, in inches (mm) at the 3, 6, 9 and 12 o'clock positions on lines provided below:
