a. The underlined frames are required to use both top plane flatness and soft foot checks.<br />

5. In preparation for frame plane measurements, be sure that the compressor<br />

frame hold down bolting is properly installed and tightened. Either remove or<br />

reposition the top cover(s) and gasket(s) to expose the frame's top-covermounting<br />

surface, be sure that the top-cover-mounting surface is clean. With<br />

new unit installations it is recommended that the frame plane be initially checked<br />

prior to the guide feet being shimmed and after the initial rough coupling alignment.<br />

On compressors shipped disassembled, the initial check should be carried<br />

out prior to the guide & cylinder assemblies being installed. Take the<br />

appropriate corrective shimming, or other height adjustment, action to have the<br />

top-cover-mounting surface fall within the specified plane tolerance. Subsequent<br />

readings should be taken and recorded after the guides and cylinders have been<br />

fully installed and then again after any vessels have been installed and<br />

shimmed. Corrective action is to be taken if guide, cylinder and/or vessel installation<br />

results in the frame top rail measurements not meeting the specified tolerances<br />

6. Refer to <strong>Ariel</strong> ER-26, Appendix A in the <strong>Ariel</strong> Packager’s Standards for proper<br />

frame foot and crosshead guide bolt size and torque values.<br />

7. The top-cover-mounting surface should be measured for flatness and/or soft<br />

foot check be done as required:<br />

a.When setting a new compressor.<br />

b.After reinstalling a compressor frame.<br />

c.When loose hold down fasteners are found.<br />
