Section 3 - Maintenance For Models: JGH:E:K:T to optimize lubrication system operation. In some applications, cross-ported divider valves deliver the proper proportion of lubricant to a given point. 5. During operation, verify oil fills the lubricator reservoir sight glass at least half way, but does not exceed twothirds. See specific packager data to determine normal operating conditions, cylinder working pressures, and rated speed. Reservoir oil lubricates the worm gear and cam; it does not flow through the system. The reservoir also catches lube pump overflow. Add oil only if needed to raise reservoir oil level. See Table 3-5. TABLE 3-5 Force Feed Lubricator Reservoir Oil Capacity Lubricator Type Ariel Designs US Gallons (Liters) Single Pump 0.25 (1) Dual Pump 0.5 (1.75) Four Pump 0.8 (3) 6. Ariel fills the force feed system with mineral oil. If tubing is missing, or if the system is drained, fill and prime the system through a 1/8 inch plug on the discharge end of the lubricator pump. 7. Prime the force feed lubrication system with a proper priming pump just prior to starting the compressor (see Fig. 1-2 for pump illustration). Use clean force feed lubricating oil of same type and grade as used in service. Do not use any other fluid type or grade to prime. 8. For recently overhauled units, adjust lubricator for maximum delivery. Loosen adjusting screw locknut. Turn plunger stroke adjustment screw to the full up position. Tighten adjusting screw locknut. Set proper feed rate after the machine starts. 9. When two or more pumps are manifolded to feed one distribution block, adjust them equally. Start with pumps wide open, and adjust them together so that when break-in cycle time is set, the pumps stroke about the same. After break-in period, adjust the pumps in the same manner, provided that the final pump stroke is not too short. Try to keep the stroke greater than 20% of maximum; a shorter stroke produces unreliable pump output. If needed, close one pump to stop its flow and open the other(s) to make the “normal” cycle time, and maintain a stroke greater than 20% in the functioning pump(s). PAGE 3-22 3/11
