Compared to other types of compressors, the Sullair rotary screw is unique in mechanical reliability, with “no wear” and “no inspection” required of the working parts within the compressor unit.
SECTION 2 2.2 DESCRIPTION OF COMPONENTS On air-cooled models, a fan draws air into the enclosure over the fan and main motors through the combined aftercooler and fluid cooler thereby removing the Refer to Figure 2-1. The components and assemblies of compression heat from the compressed air and the the air compressor are clearly shown.
Sullair 24KT compressors are filled with a fluid that rarely needs to be changed. Use only Sullair 24KT fluid in the event that a fluid change is required. CAUTION...
