Pre-Startup Checklist
24. Has the force feed lubrication system been primed and purged of all air?
25. Are all of the packing case drains/vents installed and open?
26. Replace all inspection covers.
27. Are the packing and cylinder (force feed) lubrication pump(s) adjusted to break-in (maximum flow) rates?
Normal lube rate
28. Has force feed lubrication system "No Flow" switch(es) been installed and functionally checked?
29. Is the force feed rupture disc assembly(ies) installed and checked for proper disc color and pressure rating? (See operator's
manual and CN #05-003 for proper disc selection.)
30. Have the frame and cylinder cooling systems (if applicable) been filled with proper coolant/antifreeze and purged of air?
31. Have the suction, inter-stage and discharge pressure high/low shut downs been set and functionally checked?
32. Have the safety relief valves been installed in the proper locations for each stage of compression to protect piping and
cylinder MAWP ratings?
33. Have the discharge gas temperature shutdowns been installed, set and functionally checked?
34. Is there a compressor frame vibration shutdown device installed, set and functionally checked?
35. Have the temporary inlet debris screens (100 mesh) been installed at the suction flange of each cylinder?
36. Have the suction lines been blown out to remove water, dirt, slag, etc.?
37. Has the gas piping been purged of all air for machines compressing a combustible gas?
38. Have all critical fastener torques been checked and recorded?
Caution: Loose fasteners may result in a safety hazard or equipment failure. See Operators Manual for list of critical
fasteners.
39. Has the driver rotation been verified to match the compressor rotation?
40. Verify the compressor and its driver are free rolling with minimum force. For engine drives, has the unit been rolled with the
air starter to ensure it is free turning? For electric motor drives, has the unit been barred over by hand to ensure it is free
turning?
41. Have the compressor frame and cylinder lube oil systems been prelubed prior to starting?
42. Has the driver over-speed shutdown been electronically set and verified?
Note: Do not exceed compressor's max. unloaded inertia speed, see CN #06-007 "Operational Limitations".
43. Have startup instructions for all package equipment been reviewed and performed?
44. Has the Packager's representative reviewed the unit's startup and operating instructions with the site operator(s)?
