Quincy Compressor 210

Measure the span length of the drive (in inches)

Calculate the required deflection (in inches)

Lay a straightedge across the top outer surface of the drive belt from pulley to sheave

Apply pressure with a belt tension gauge and record the deflection force reading

Is the deflection force reading within the minimum and maximum values?

Adjust the belt(s) if the deflection force reading is not within the specified range

Tension new belts to the maximum value plus 33% (multiply by 1.33)

Measure Span Length and Deflection

Measure the span length of the drive (in inches)

Calculate the required deflection (in inches) by multiplying the span length by 0.016

Measure and Adjust Belt Tension

Lay a straightedge across the top outer surface of the drive belt from pulley to sheave

Apply pressure with a belt tension gauge at the center of the span and record the deflection force reading

Is the deflection force reading within the minimum and maximum values?

Adjust the belt(s) if the deflection force reading is not within the specified range

For new belts, tension to the maximum value plus 33%

Ensure all necessary parts are in place

Check lubricant level in the crankcase

Has the compressor been operated for 100 hours or 1 month?

Replace break-in lubricant with QuinCip lubricant

Determine correct lubricant amount and viscosity

Is the lubricant level within the correct range after oil change?

Change oil if 1000 hours or 6 months have passed, whichever occurs first

Was the oil changed more frequently due to harsher conditions?

Inspect compressor valves for leakage

Inspect compressor valves for carbon build-up

Crankcase and Sump Strainer Cleaning

Clean oil sump strainer screen inside the crankcase with safety solvent

Inspect compressor equipment for damage during shipment

Was any damage found during inspection?

Demand an inspection from the carrier if damage is found

Ask the carrier how to file a claim for shipping damages
