SECTION 6
HEAT EXCHANGERS (OIL, AIR), AXIAL COOLING FANS
Compressor, air/oil reservoir, separator chamber and all piping and tubing may
be at high temperature during and after operation.
Do not attempt inspection or cleaning of air-cooled heat exchangers until
cooling fan has stopped rotating. Disconnect, lockout and tagout package from
power supply.
Automatic restarting or electrical shock can cause injury or death. Disconnect,
lockout and tagout package from the power supply.
OIL/AIR HEAT EXCHANGERS – The heat of compression absorbed by the oil injected into the

air-cooled cores) or water (for water-cooled cores). Proper operation of these heat exchangers is
essential for the following processes:
