Before starting a new compressor, always fill the crankcase up to the filler hole
with a good grade of lubricating oil. Check the motor bearing for lubrication.
Open the water mains in case of water coiled unit and ensure that water flows
freely in all the outlet pipes and there is no water leakage.
Open the intercooler, after cooler drain clocks, by-pass valve and air receiver
outlet valve.
Turn compressor over a few revolutions by hand to see that everything is free
and in working condition.
Remove tools, rags and any other objects from the vicinity of the compressor
before throwing the switch.
Never put hands on the belts of an idle unit. It may be connected to start and
stop automatically and should start, a hand can very easily be caught between
the belt and the motor pulley or belt wheel. Start the motor and observe the
direction of rotation of compressor. Note down the current drawn by the motor
pulley or belt wheel.
Make sure that oil pressure (1.5 2 ksc) is being indicated on the lubricating
oil pressure gauge. If the gauge fails to register any pressure, then stop the
compressor and investigate.
If the machine is running alright, then fully close the drain cocks, by pass
valve and slowly close the air outlet valve to the extent that the 2nd stage
gauge registers a pressure of 3 ksc. Observe the performance of machine, at
this pressure for about 30 minutes.
Allow the compressor to run and observe for any leakage of oil, water or any
abnormal sound for about 10 minutes. If the machine is running alright, then
fully close the drain cocks, by pass valve and slowly close the air outlet valve
to the extent that the 2nd stage gauge registers a pressure of 3 ksc. Observe
the performance of machine, at this pressure for about 30 minutes.
Next, raise the air pressure to 5 ksc by closing the air outlet valve and run the
machine at this pressure for about 30 minutes.
Now close the air outlet valve till the air pressure reaches the specified working
pressure.
Check that the loading and unloading of the compressor is taking place at a
minimum differential of 1 ksc of the specified working pressure.
To shut the machine down, close the service valves and run the machine for
approximately 5 minutes and then turn the toggle switch to OFF position.
Fill the reboiler first until glycol appears in the surge tank and then fill the
surge tank approximately full.
Check to see that all valves on the burner manifold are closed.
Slowly turn static pressure into the absorber (Contactor tower) and check for
leaks.
Light the pilot burner. If the burner is equipped with a pilot burner it will be
necessary to reset the temperature control until the element is sufficiently
heated.
Turn the temperature dials to open the fuel valve, thus lighting the main
burner. Adjust the primary and secondary air to give a blue flame with yellow
tip.
Glycol circulation can be started now. Open glycol suction and discharge lines.
Open filter block valves, if applicable. Start pump and bleed air from lines.
When starting a gas driven pump, the pump will run on gas until glycol has
been pumped into the absorber. It will then automatically control the glycol
level at the high pressure glycol outlet.
Add glycol to the surge tank as the level is pumped down. Caution should be
taken however, that the surge not to be filled too full. Glycol will expand as it
comes up to the operating temperature.
Gas can now be turned through the absorber. Apply the load very slowly.
Adjust the glycol pump rate. The rate required varies with the application and
equipment. Generally, a glycol rate of 3-4 gallons per pound of water in the
inlet stream is sufficient to provide adequate dehydration. Lower rates are
usually adequate where additional trays are provided.
Stop pumps.

Plan for emergency fire procedures when you weld in any areas where
combustibles or flammables are present. Remove combustibles or carefully
protect them from sparks.
Weld on enclosed hollow containers, tanks, and piping systems only if they
have a vent or opening to release pressure.
Shut down equipment when not in use; bleed hose lines and turn off valves.
Personal Protection
1
Cover all exposed skin, including face, wrists, and hands and use flameproof
gauntlet, gloves and aprons. Protective clothing will protect against burns from
metal sparks.
Use flame resistant leather chaps, high topped work boots and metal screens
in front of legs when necessary. Depending on the type of welding you are
performing and the environment in which you are working, additional types of
protective clothing and equipment may be needed.
Ventilation
1 Use a ventilating hood to control fumes at the welding bench.
