Ingersoll Rand Compressor SSR-EP25

Warning: This procedure requires trained personnel with PPE!

Improper lubrication can be a cause of motor bearing failure. The quantity of grease added should be carefully controlled.

The smaller motors must be greased with a lesser amount of grease than larger motors.

When regreasing, stop motor. Disconnect power; lock out and tag.

Outlet plugs (or spring-loaded grease relief plugs if present) removed?

The outlet plug may not be accessible on the fan end of some TEFC motors.

Grease relief along shaft can occur, precluding necessity of removing this plug if inaccessible.

The inlet grease gun fittings and outlet plugs (or spring-loaded reliefs) are located at each end of the motor housing.

The drive end reliefs protrude out the circumference of the lower portion of the end bell near a flange bolt.

Warning: This procedure should be performed by trained personnel only.

Is the operating environment clean?

Enter the current hours of operation

If the operating environment is extremely dirty, change V-belts, coolant, filters, and separator elements more frequently.

Is the coolant filter element changed after the first 150 hours of operation and every 1200 hours thereafter?

In dirty operation environments the filter should be changed more frequently.

Did you use a suitable device and loosen the old element?

Did you use a drain pan to catch any leakage during removal?

Did you discard the old element?

Enter the discharge temperature (air)

Inspect separator element differential

Inspect air filter Delta P (at full load)

Inspect sheave grooves for foreign material or rubber build-up

Clean and degrease sheaves before installing new belts

Install new belts in the reverse order of disassembly

Ensure new belt is not pried or forced over the sheave grooves

Apply a force at the center of the sheave span using a tension gauge or other calibrated spring

Loosen the nut on the pivot bolt located on the left side (nearest the separator tank) on the airend if belt tension is incorrect

Warning: Improper lubrication can cause motor bearing failure. The quantity of grease added should be carefully controlled.

Stop motor before regreasing. Disconnect power; lock out and tag.

Outlet plugs or spring-loaded grease relief plugs removed

The inlet grease gun fittings and outlet plugs (or spring-loaded reliefs) are located at each end of the motor housing.

Drive end outlet plugs located and removed

Drain hole free of any hard grease

Quantity of grease delivered with each stroke of the lever

Recommended volume of the recommended lubricant added

Do not expect grease to appear at the outlet, but if it does, discontinue greasing at once.
