CONSTRUCTION The rotary air pump is a precision product, with only a few thousandths of an inch clearance at the ends and top of the rotor. The vanes take up their own wear and should last from 5,000 to 25,000 hours operation depending on the application. Protect the pump against the entrance of dirt, lubricate it, and it will provide years of trouble-free service.

DISASSEMBLING GAST 1065 COMPRESSOR FOR VANE REPLACEMENT 1. Remove the taper pins holding compressor in position. This can be done with a pair of pliers. 2. Remove the four (4) mounting bolts. 3. Treat it right; it’s precision built! 4. Work on a bench. Clean the pump with a solvent or carbon tetrachloride. 5.
Page 53
5. Reinstall the onionskin gasket, making sure it is on properly. Use a little oil to make it stick. 6. Reinstall the dead end plate. Guide the dowel pins into the proper holes. Be careful of the seal so that you do not damage it with the shaft.
Page 54
SERVICING Most failure to build up pressure is due to leaks in pipe lines, a dirty filter, a defective gauge, or sluggish vanes. Vanes may stick in slots of rotor due to lack of oil, too much oil, or too heavy oil. See CLEANING.

ASSEMBLING #2065 COMPRESSOR Be sure that parts are clean, free from nicks, and that vanes move freely in rotor slot. The smallest chip will bind the rotor and damage same. Remember there is only .002 of an inch between top of rotor and body bore.
Page 57
Repeat procedure in locating dead end of rotor. With a piece of brass, tap lightly and quickly on the drive end of rotor shaft. Press seals into end caps and attach. Attach fan, guard, and pulley. Give compressor ample amount of light oil so it is well lubricated.

Sizing Gas Header From Meter to Boiler 24 through 150 HP 500 Series Sizing the gas line from the utility service at the meter to the gas pressure regulator at the boiler can be important in cases where the gas pressure available limits the pressure drop to a low value.* The following sizing method will prove helpful in sizing this line for single or multiple boiler installation.
Page 79
Sizing Gas Header From Meter to Boiler Sample Problem What size gas header should be run to handle two 150 HP hot water boilers and a single 50 HP high pressure steam boiler? The boilers are to be furnished to meet FM requirements. The gas is natural, .6 Sp.G and 1000 BTU/cu.ft.
Page 80
Step #7A The new pressure drop available in the header per 100 ft. of pipe is now 3.4" WC (Step #4) divided by 3.175 (Step #6A) = 1.07 "WC/100 ft. Step #8A Referring to Fig. 3 and locating the intersection of 14,259 CFH (Step #1) and 1.07" WC/100 ft.

Instructions for Sizing Fuel Lines Step #1 From boiler size (HP) determine required suction and return line size. (Fig. 2) Step #2 From plans, determine straight length of pipe run (both horizontal and vertical) from pump suction connection (Fig. 1) to the bottom of the fuel oil tank. Step #3 Determine the number and type of fittings in the length of run (Step #2) and convert these into a length of straight pipe.
Page 86
Step #5 From the plans, the vertical distance from the boiler room floor to the bottom of the fuel tank is found to be 8.5 ft. Step #6 The total lift is then 8.5 ft. + 1.5 ft. (Fig. 1) = 10 ft. Step #7 Fig.

FUEL OIL, ITS SPECIFICATIONS AND OTHER RELATED SUBJECTS There has been much discussion on the specifications of the various grades of available fuel oil, the discussions involving the point of fuel specifications, viscosities, and available heat content. The following deals with this subject in relation to the York-Shipley product. The grades available are identified by their respective number as assigned by the U.S.
Page 112
The table shows that the lower the API the greater the heat content of the fuel, and the higher the density the greater the heat content. The values shown are for pure hydrocarbons. If substantial amounts of sulfur, water or sediment are present, corrections should be made.

INTERMEDIATE FUEL OILS Some #4 and #5 oils are blended at refineries, but there is considerable field blending, with the result that variety in characteristics is great. The ranges can be set down in the following tables: TABLE 3 - APPROXIMATE RANGE OF #5 (HOT) FUEL OIL Gravity Deg.
Page 114
BLENDING OF FUELS Blending of #6 and #2 fuels to make a #4 and #5 fuel must be done under certain conditions to be effective and lasting. If improperly done, the blending may not be permanent and the two components may stratify.

from the superheater tubes and hangers, indicates that the entire mass had been in a molten state and flowed like lava. It is, of course, in the molten state that V causes corrosive attacks by fluxing with the protective oxide layer on the steel. In this state it also soaks into porous refractory, causing extensive damage.

Flash and fire points depend on the nature of the original crude oil, the viscosity, and the method of refining. For the same viscosities and degree of refinement, the paraffinic oils are higher than the napthenic flash and fire points. The flash point of an oil is important with regard to safety in handling and storage.

FUEL OIL PROPERTIES VERSUS REFINERY LOCATION As mentioned previously, the properties of the fuels will vary according to the refinery location. Tables 9, 10, 11, and 12 represent an actual check of a major fuel oil supplier. Note that while the ash remains fairly constant in all four refineries, the sulfur and vanadium pentoxide vary widely.

LUBRICATION PROCEDURES AND REQUIREMENTS FOR STEAM-PAK MOTORS A. Ball Bearing (identified by plugged grease ports) 1. To add grease periodically: a. Check grease level in bearings each month adding grease only if necessary. Too much grease may be just as damaging as too little. Housing should be at least 1/3 full, but never more than 2/3 full.
Page 124
c. Always wipe up surplus oil. Exterior oil is sign of a leak. If found, determine cause and correct. 2. To clean and re-oil sleeve bearings: a. Bearings should be cleaned and re-oiled every six months. However, if oil is dirty and emulsified before this time, clean more often.
Page 125
b. All Other Frame Sizes: Alvania #2, Shell Oil Company or equivalent. Relubricate approximately every two and one-half years. 5. Reuland Motors: a. Reuland Motors feature lifetime lubricated, sealed ball bearings, grease packed and sealed by the bearing manufacturer. 6. Baldor Motors: a.

HEAVY OIL PUMP SET On #6 oil units, the pump set should run continuously when operating an when on standby. On #6 oil units, the below-water-line-heater circulator should run continuously when operating and when on standby. STARTING THE UNIT After making all connections to the unit, it is ready for operation. The following is the procedure for putting the unit into its normal operating cycle: A.

good reading had been obtained, open burner control switch and place the "test-run" switch in the run position. The D20-5023 or D10-5022 should now function as described earlier. When first establishing main flame, hold modulation motor in the low fire position. After establishing a good low main flame, reconnect modulation circuit to allow unit to go to high fire to check combustion at high fire.
