O2 WARNING

FOR OXYGEN SERVICE: To prevent FIRE, SERIOUS INJURY, and/or DEATH,remove all traces of hydrocarbon contamination from oxygen exposed areas. It is

the User’s responsibility to ensure all components that may be exposed toOxygen gas are cleaned for Oxygen Service prior to installation. Thosecomponents include, but are not limited to, the compression assemblie(s),crankcase, gas plumbing, safety switches and all valving. Use only oxygencompatible grease and Viton O-rings in crankcase and in areas exposed to gasstream.

 Any work to be done on the compressor where the gas stream may be exposedmust be done in accordance with safe Oxygen Equipment handling procedures.

No attempt should be made to work on the machine without full knowledge of

Oxygen equipment handling and the potential hazards of contamination.

Factory Oxygen cleaned parts are denoted by an “X” prefix at the beginning ofthe part number. Any components not denoted by Rix as factory cleaned mustbe oxygen cleaned prior to installation. It is the User’s responsibility to maintainthe cleanliness of factory cleaned parts and any other existing portions of the gasstream that may be exposed during the initial installation, start up, or duringinstallation of replacement parts.

RIX Industries recommends the customer establish a procedure for working withoxygen machinery. Refer to Compressed Gas Association, Inc. publication

number CGA G-4.1, Cleaning Equipment for Oxygen Service. (pg 2 & 12)

Wet Gas Warning

For units pumping “wet gases”, a crankcase moisture drain is required to removeany liquid build up in the crankcase. The crankcase must be drained at regularintervals to ensure that the volume of liquid in the crankcase does not exceed 50ml. To establish accurate drain intervals, keep a log of volume drained -vs. -drain intervals.

CHAPTER 1 - COMPRESSOR OVERVIEW

This manual is intended to provide information pertinent to the installation, operation and maintenanceof the RIX Model 2V2B-8.6 Compressor.

1.1 DESCRIPTION

This is a 2 stage, 2 cylinder, air-cooled, oil-free compressor. See registration page for design operating pressures, flow rate and gas type.

1.2 GAS COMPRESSION: This compressor is designed to safely compress without cylinder oilubrication. Teflon based piston rings are used in all stages. The compression cylinders are isolated

from the crankcase lubricating oil by a crosshead distance piece.

Since oil is not used in the compression cylinders, the compressor will not contaminate the compressed

gas, however, it is the responsibility of the user to ensure that clean gas is supplied to the compressor

intake at all times. A small amount of inert piston ring dust will pass into the gas stream; this can befiltered out if desired. It is required of the buyer to monitor the gas purity and/or filter the discharge gas

as necessary to be suitable for the intended use.

1.3 GAS FLOW: Gas entering at the suction of the first stage is successively compressed through

all stages to provide the final discharge pressure. After each stage of compression the gas must be

cooled in a heat exchanger. For wet gases a moisture separator is required after each gas cooler. A flowschematic shows the gas flow in more detail.

1.4 COOLING: Due to the heat created by compression, it is necessary to cool the compressed gas

after each stage of compression. A cooling fan pulls air through the inter/aftercooler assembly and then

routes the air towards the heads and cylinders.

1.5 CRANKCASE LUBRICATION: The entire crankcase assembly including guide cylinders is

splash lubricated.

P/N: MAN-2V2B-8.6-13395  2

CHAPTER 2 - INSTALLATION

2.1 MOUNTING:  The compressor must be firmly bolted down on a rigid foundation. In some

cases firm rubber mounts are acceptable, however, allowed movement will generally increase vibration

which can cause component damage.

For proper cooling adequate ventilation must be supplied at the compressor site. Ambient cooling air isrequired to be 100 F˚ or less. Cooler air is desirable as it will increase compressor component life

Extremely low ambient temperatures may require oil sump heating.

If compressing wet gas the compressor must be located where temperatures are above freezing.

O2 Safety Zone: Due to the inherent danger of fire and/or explosion during O2 compression, personnel

should not be allowed in close contact with the unit during operation. The necessity of surrounding the

unit with a protective barrier should be considered. Flammable substances should not be stored near the

compressor.

For O2 units, it is highly recommended that a supply of high purity N2 is available for start-up andtesting of the compressor package. See O2 burn-in recommendation in Ch. 3.1.1

WARNING 

FOR NITROX or OXYGEN SERVICE: All customer gas piping in and out of the

compressor must be designed for oxygen compatibility and cleaned to eliminatecontamination that could result in fire and/or explosion in the compressor or related

gas piping. Only personnel fully trained in oxygen handling procedures should be

allowed to service this unit or any piping system connected to it.

A 2nd check valve should be installed just prior to the users gas storage bank, to

 prevent gas flow back to the compressor package.

SEE ADDITIONAL WARNING AT START OF CHAPTER 5 OR 7 

2.2 PIPING:  When piping to the gas inlet, be sure all pipes are free from contamination. Piping to

the compressor suction should be the same diameter or larger than the compressor inlet piping to insure

the required flow can pass without pressure drop. A particulate filter or strainer (100 mesh or finer)must be installed at the gas inlet. Customer inlet and discharge piping should be designed to

accommodate compressor vibration.

An approved safety relief valve and pressure gauge must always be installed between the compressor

and the first item in the gas piping that can potentially block the flow of gas. All piping and components

downstream of the unit must be rated for the same pressure as the setting of the final stage relief valve.

Do not start the compressor until these items are properly installed.

Inspect all gas piping compression fittings and tighten as necessary. Flexible lines should be secured to

 prevent whipping in case of breakage. It may be helpful to install a hand valve in the gas line just after

Page 13: 2V2B

8/19/2019 2V2B

P/N: MAN-2V2B-8.6-13395  3

the compressor to create back pressure for testing and switch calibration. On units with auto start/stoplogic, reconnecting the discharge pressure switch to a receiver tank may provide more accurate control.

See compressor flow schematic for other required customer connections (if any).

Note: the piston rings and gas packing seals (if equipped) are designed to seal in dynamic use and may

not seal well when compressor is not running.

WARNING: “BG” units have piston rod packing seals and the lower side of the compression cylinders

are plumbed back to the gas suction. The compressor must never be operated without these lines

connected or the crankcase rod loading may exceed design limits. Also, see section 7.8 for informationabout the packing vent port (and purge port if included).

CAUTION 

For units with positive suction pressures, a safety valve must be used on the

suction line to protect against excessive intake pressure. The valve capacity must

match the maximum potential capacity of the customer gas source. Factory

installed relief valves are sized to match the compressor design flow rate only.

2.3 CRANKCASE LUBRICATION:  Check crankcase oil level via sight gage with unit stopped

Oil level should be to fill line which is approx 3/4 of the way up the glass. Also inspect for water or

other foreign material. Change oil as necessary for local conditions. The unit has been shipped with

SAE 15-40 oil.

Automotive type oil is recommended, either synthetic or carbon based. Multi-viscosity oil is acceptable

Synthetic compression oils are not suitable.

CRANKCASE OIL CAPACITY: 1.75 Quarts (1.65 Liters) 

VISCOSITY: Above 60˚F. - SAE 30Between 32˚ and 60˚F - SAE 20WBetween 20˚ and 32˚F - SAE 10W - synthetic oil preferred

Below 20˚F - SAE 5W - synthetic oil required  

2.4 ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS:  The unit must be wired in accordance with applicable

codes. Jog unit to ensure correct rotation of compressor. See registration page for proper crankshaf

rotation. Check cooling fan rotation to ensure that air is pulled through the heat exchanger.

2.5 DISTANCE PIECES:  Distance piece venting is necessary to minimize pressure pulsing(caused by piston movement) which could lead to piston rod oil seal leakage. It is also necessary to

 prevent unsafe concentrations of O2 buildup in the distance piece area or crankcase.

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/2v2b 14/74

P/N: MAN-2V2B-8.6-13395  4

2.6 STORAGE:  If the compressor is taken out of service, provision should be made to protecagainst corrosion. At a minimum, gas suction and discharge lines should be capped. The compressor

should be rotated at least once every 2 months. In corrosive environments, the distance pieces should be

sealed and the unit nitrogen purged.

After an extended storage (or if stored without climate control) the crankcase cover plates should be

removed and the roller bearings inspected for corrosion. Apply oil to bearings before replacing covers

Also, lift up oil packing boxes (inside distance pieces) and lubricate guide cylinders. Compressor headsand/or valves should also be removed and inspected for corrosion. Relief valves should be cleaned

rebuilt or replaced.

CHAPTER 3 - START-UP AND OPERATING PARAMETERS

3.1 SYSTEM CHECKOUT:  Check that crankcase oil level is 3/4 up the sight glass and inspect forwater or other foreign material.

Insure that a free flow of gas is available to the inlet and that all downstream piping is properly protected

 by a suitable relief valve.

Check setting of all temperature shutdown devices (see Ch. 4 for settings).

For O2 units see O2 warning at beginning of manual.

3.1.1 O2 START-UP / BURN-IN PROCEDURE:

This procedure applies at initial start-up and anytime the compressor or associated piping isdisassembled and exposed to the atmosphere. All components must be oxygen clean before proceeding.

Charge system with clean, dry nitrogen or with a clean, dry nitrogen/oxygen mixture not exceeding 30%

oxygen. Run compressor at rated conditions, using a closed loop if necessary. Slowly inject oxygeninto the inlet while venting the compressor discharge until the unit is running on pure oxygen. This

 process should take a least 30 minutes. This will allow any organic materials left in the system to

oxidize safely.

3.2 START-UP: Supply the required suction pressure to the compressor inlet. Check for leaks in

the system and correct as necessary. Start the compressor and observe the pressure gauges.

All elements of the pressure control system and safety shutdowns should be tested and verified before

the system is put into full operation.

If the unit is equipped with a back pressure regulator (BPR) on the discharge piping, the final pressure

will increase quickly to the BPR setting. Otherwise, the pressure will increase based on back pressurefrom user downstream piping. The interstage pressures should approach normal levels as the final stage

comes up to its final setting. See paragraph 3.3 or Registration Page for normal operating pressures

 NOTE: High pressure units with floating pistons will experience knocking for 1-2 seconds on start-up.

If interstage pressures do not reach normal levels check for leaks in the gas piping. A soapy water

solution is one way to do this (see paragraph 5.8). If interstage pressures exceed normal levels (which

may pop relief valves) this is due to valves on the next stage leaking back. Leaking valves may be theresult of inactivity in which case operating the unit at reduced back pressure (or at back pressure valve

setting) for 30 minutes may clear the problem. Also see troubleshooting guide.

If the compressor does not shut off when the discharge switch set pressure is reached, manually shut

down and check the pressure switch and related wiring (see appendix for switch instructions). If

necessary, adjust the switch according to the directions.

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/2v2b 16/74

P/N: MAN-2V2B-8.6-13395  6

Test the suction pressure switch (if supplied) by manually lowering the pressure to the compressor inletIf the compressor does not shut off when the switch set pressure is reached, manually shut down and

check switch and related wiring. Operating the compressor with inadequate suction pressure may

overheat the final stage or cause banging of floating pistons creating the potential for severe damage.

Gas temperatures will also rise in conjunction with the stage pressures. Temperature switches may need

adjustment for local ambient/cooling water temperatures. Switches can be checked by lowering the trip

setting and then running the unit. Reset to 30°F (17°C) above maximum observed operatingtemperature. See instructions in back of manual for setting digital display.

Test all other shutdown devices as applicable. All elements of the pressure control system and safetyshutdowns should be tested and verified before the system is put into full operation.

SEE CHAPTER 4 FOR CONTROL SYSTEM INFORMATION

WARNING 

A painful burn can be caused by touching any of the cylinder heads ordischarge lines from the heads to the inter/aftercooler.

3.3 NORMAL OPERATING PRESSURE RANGES:

Suction 72.5 psig

1st Stage 220 psig

2nd Stage 508 psig

It is recommended that a log be kept, noting operating pressures andmaintenance done versus hours of compressor operation. If pressures do not

fall within the above ranges, or vary from your historical pressures, check

Chapter 6, Troubleshooting, for corrective action.

3.4 RELIEF VALVE SETTINGS:

With the selector switch in the HAND position the compressor is in manual mode and will start when

the START pushbutton is pressed. The unit will continue to run until one of the safety switches stops

the unit. At that point the compressor will not restart until the START pushbutton is pressed again. Ifany switch remains above the "cut in" setting the compressor will not start. To manually stop the unit

switch the HOA switch to the OFF position.

Automatic Mode of Operation

With the selector switch in the AUTO position the compressor will automatically start and stop based on

the signal from either the suction or discharge pressure switch. When shutdown by either switch, thecompressor will remain on standby until the pressure reverts back to the "cut in" point of the switch at

which point the compressor will restart. If shutdown by high gas temperature, the unit will remain offuntil the unit cools down below the temperature switch set point and the fault is cleared by pressing and

releasing the emergency stop button. To manually stop the unit, switch the HOA switch to the OFF

 position.

Electrical Schematic Description

The following explains the logic sequence as reflected on the schematic:

a.  With power applied to the unit and the selector switch (HOA) in HAND, push the

START pushbutton.

 b.  The two pressure switches, low inlet (PSI) and discharge (PSD) are connected in

series to the motor controller. If the inlet pressure is high enough to close the

inlet switch, and the discharge switch remains closed (pressure below the switch"cut in" setting) the compressor will start.

c.  Current passes through the two closed pressure switches, the closed relay (R1-2)

and energizes the starter coil (C). The starter coil starts the main drive motor.The fan motor and hourmeter also operate at this point. The green light (LG) will

energize indicating the compressor is running. Tripping of either the inlet or

discharge switch will break current to the coil (C) which will stop the drive motor.

d.  If the 2nd stage temperature reaches the switch set point the temperature switchopens and de-energizes relay R1. When relay R1 is de-energized, contact R1-2

opens and removes power to the motor starter coil (C). This stops the compressor

motor, fan motor, and the hour meter. The green light will de-energize. ContactR1-1 closes and the red light (LR) energizes signaling a high temperature

condition. After the temperature switch has reset, the emergency stop button must

 be pushed to clear the fault, followed by the start button to restart the compressor

in manual mode. In auto mode the compressor will restart after the emergencystop is pressed and released.

e.  The compressor may also be run in the automatic mode by selecting AUTO on the

HOA switch. All features are the same as described above except that after theinlet or discharge switch shut down the unit, the compressor will automatically

restart when the switches are moved to the "cut in" setting. The compressor will

continue cycling until the selector switch is moved to either HAND or OFF.

f.  The unit may be stopped at any time by switching the HOA to OFF.

CHAPTER 5 - ROUTINE INSPECTION and SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE

INTRODUCTION  The purpose of this chapter is to provide the operator with the routine

inspection and scheduled maintenance information required to ensure a long service life of the subjectcompressor. Detailed procedures for maintenance are contained in chapter 7.

For O2 units, before any maintenance is performed please refer to

Chapter 7 Section II for OXYGEN WARNING!

5.1 - ROUTINE INSPECTION

a. Check that crankcase oil level is 3/4 of the way up on sight glass. Check for oil leaks.

 b. Check gauge pressures against normal operating cylinder pressures.

c. Check cooling air flow. Verify heat exchanger fins are clean and free from blockages.

d. Check for unusual noises or vibrations.

e. Check for proper moisture separator operation (if applicable). All separators should

discharge water automatically.

5.2 SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE

Para. Operation Time Intervals in Hours

5.3 Filter Cleaning ......................................................... 2000 or as required5.4 Crankcase Lubricating Oil .................................... 6000 or once per year

5.5 Electric Motor Lubrication ............................................ as required

5.6 Drive-belt Adjustment ........................................................40005.7 Pressure Relief Valves .......................................... 8000 or once per year

5.13 Piston Rod Gas Packing (BG models only).................... as required

WARNING

Before performing any of the scheduled maintenance tasks in this chapter,

the compressor should be shut off and tagged Out of Service. This is to prevent an inadvertent start which could cause injury to personnel or

damage to the equipment. Allow piping to cool before repair.

P/N: MAN-2V2B-8.6-13395  11

5.3 FILTER CLEANING:  Every 2000 hours (or as required) the filters should be cleaned (refer toFlow Schematic for filter locations). Replacement gasket or O-ring as applicable should be on hand in

case existing is damaged during disassembly. 

5.4 CRANKCASE LUBRICATING OIL: Every 3000 hours of running time (or annually) the

crankcase oil should be renewed. Failing to change the oil as scheduled may result in premature or

accelerated wear to the running gear (crankshaft, main / connecting rod bearings and the crosshead).

5.5 MOTOR LUBRICATION: If motor does not have grease fittings, the bearings are sealed forlife. Otherwise, follow the manufacturer’s recommendation.

5.6 DRIVE BELTS:  Properly tensioned belts insure a longer life. Correct belt tension for the 2V

unit allows one quarter inch deflection with 8-10 lb. force applied per belt at mid-span. New belts may

require tightening after 24-48 hours of operation. Two belts are required. Units with the flywheegrooves painted may require banded belts as single belts may rotate in the grooves. See Chapter 7.2 for

more information.

5.7 PRESSURE RELIEF VALVES: The pressure relief valves should be removed from the

compressor, inspected for cleanliness, and tested for correct set-point every 8000 hours or once per year.

If a valve fails to lift at its rated pressure, it must be readjusted, and if necessary, rebuilt or replaced.

5.8 GAS PIPING LEAK CHECK: After maintenance or every 1000 hours operation, all assembly joints should be examined for leaks. Leak testing requires that the unit be pressurized, and therefore

running or recently run. Any gaskets and o-rings needed for repair should be on hand.

A soapy solution in a squirt bottle is one method of locating leaks. This test is simplified if thecompressor is allowed to cool, then restarted immediately prior to running the leak test, since the hot

discharge pipes can boil away the soap solution making detection of leaks difficult or impossible.

WARNINGS 

Do not use a flammable solution for leak testing

Hot discharge lines can produce painful burns

Wear safety glasses at all times

Notes: Observe for the formation of bubbles. Large leaks may blow the solution away as it is appliedand therefore must be detected by feel, being careful of hot gases and piping. O-ring joints normally

cannot be corrected by additional tightening - in most cases a new o-ring is required. Always inspect o-

ring sealing surfaces for defects. Insure the proper durometer (hardness) o-ring is used.

 Note: See Drawing A5089 for O-ring installation and material information

5.9 VALVES: 

A leaking valve, either suction or discharge, will usually be indicated by higher than normal pressure on

the preceding stage, or in the case of the first stage, a loss in flow along with low interstage pressures.This can be caused by wear, breakage, warping of the reeds or fouling due to particulates. Severe

leakage in a suction valve will cause heating of the suction pipe just prior to the cylinder head.

The valve reeds should be changed every 4000 hours (2000 hours with O2 units), or earlier if pressuresvary from normal, noise is detected or an abnormally high temperature is observed. The customer

should establish reference data for use in troubleshooting by taking gauge readings when the compressor

is running under normal operating conditions.

The perimeter of valve seats and o-rings may be lightly lubed with appropriate grease to ease assembly.

Alignment pins may also be lubed to help hold in place. (see additional information in chapter 7)

Loctite is required for assembly of some valves. For O2 units use Green 290 only and ensure Loctiteis fully cured before operation (24 hrs). Otherwise use Blue 242. Make sure Loctite does not spreadout and get on reeds. See note in chapter 7.

5.10 PISTON RINGS: 

As the piston rings wear, their ability to seal is diminished. Excessive wear will result in lower

compressor capacity, more frequent compressor operation and unnecessary wear on other componentsThere is also risk of damaging cylinder liner walls if the rings wear out completely, particularly on

stages with stainless pistons.

Excess piston to cylinder clearance, caused from either piston or cylinder liner wear, will significantly

decrease ring life. Cylinder bores should be observed for wear at ring change-outs and measured for

wear if ring life has significantly decreased. For maximum ring life, pistons should not be removedfrom cylinders prior to ring replacement.

For the high pressure stages that have floating pistons it is recommended that the pistons be replaced

with the rings as an assembly at the first change-out, and thereafter as necessary. If undamaged, theoriginal piston can be re-ringed by the user and kept for the next change-out.

The best indicator of worn rings is a low compressor flow output. On the first or intermediate stages the pressure for the affected cylinder will also be lowered. With extreme wear the compressor will not be

able to compress to the design pressure.

Ring life will vary with discharge pressure, atmospheric conditions and frequency of start/stop cycles.A low ambient temperature will increase ring life. Frequent start/stop cycles will reduce ring life. If

 possible, allow downstream pressure to drop as low as possible before restarting compressor.

5.11 CYLINDER LINERS: When ring life deteriorates from normal, liners should be checked for

surface finish, scoring or excessive wear. Maximum wear will normally occur 1/3 to 1/2 way down the bore. A bore gauge is the best way to measure wear. Check diameter at several depths for wash-

 boarding, and hone or replace as required. See chapter 7 for maximum diameters. Cleaning may not berequired on normal ring change-outs unless contaminates are present.

The desired cylinder surface is a 16-32 crosshatch. Surface roughness is needed to allow engraining ofTeflon in the bore. A smoother bore will reduce ring life. Re-hone cylinder as required, removing a

minimum of material.

5.12 PISTON ROD OIL SEALS:  The oil seals prevent crankcase oil from leaking into the

distance piece area. If objectionable leakage occurs, remove piston rod and replace seals. If scratches

are found on rod surface, refinish per instructions in chapter 7.

CHAPTER 6

TROUBLESHOOTING

GENERAL. Abnormal compressor conditions can be evaluated more quickly and accurately bylooking at interstage pressures. Variation of the interstage pressure indicates a problem condition, such

as worn piston rings, leaking valves or piping leaks. Observe cylinder pressures, which should be as

indicated on the Registration Page of this manual or in chapter 3.

Low interstage pressures will be caused by one or more of the following:

a. Worn 1st stage or interstage rings

 b. Leaking 1st stage valves

c. Leaks in piping or o-rings

d. Excessive 1st stage piston clearance

e. Restricted inlet filter or suction pipingf. Low suction pressure to compressor

NOTE: Operating compressor with a low interstage pressure may cause overheating of the

final stage resulting in premature ring wear.

High interstage pressures will be caused by one or more of the following:

a. Leaking valves on the next stage (most likely cause)

 b. Worn piston rings on next stage

NOTE: Leaking valves (in any stage) can cause a warming of the suction pipe just prior to the cylinder

head. If the unit has two parallel cylinders, compare the inlet pipe temperatures to each other.

Compressor will not produce final discharge pressure:

a. Worn piston rings

 b. Leak to atmosphere via cylinder head o-ring or pipingc. Leak in downstream (customer) piping

Shutdown due to high discharge temperature:

a. Low interstage pressure (see above causes) b. Inoperative cooling fan (or reverse rotation)

c. Inadequate ventilation around compressor or blocked cooling fins

CHAPTER 7 CORRECTIVE MAINTENANCE – MECHANICAL SYSTEMS

INTRODUCTION: This chapter presents instructions for adjustments and repairs to the

compressor pump. Scheduled maintenance and general repair information is covered in Chapter 5Where special tools are required, they are called out in the applicable paragraph. This chapter is divided

into two sections: Section I, Adjustments and Alignments, and Section II, Repair.

SECTION I – EXTERNAL ADJUSTMENTS AND ALIGNMENTS

7.1 ALIGNMENT OF DRIVE PULLEYS:  Following any repair which requires removal of themotor sheave or compressor flywheel, it may be necessary to realign the pulleys.

The pulleys are keyed to the shaft and locked in place with a tapered bushing. The pulleys have a hubthat can be separated by removing the three bolts and using them as jacking devices by inserting into the

threaded holes in the hub and tightening sequentially until the pulley breaks free. When loose, the

 pulley and hub can be slid back and forth on the shaft to achieve alignment. To align, use a straigh

edge across the outside faces of the pulleys. The gap between the straight edge and flywheel or pulleyshould not exceed 1/16" (4 CM).

Torque the bolts per specifications. Check alignment and repeat if necessary. Replace belt guard.

7.2 TIGHTENING V-BELTS: 

To replace belts, loosen the motor (and beltguard if necessary) and roll the belts off the flywheel and

drive sheave, one groove at a time. Install new belts via reverse method.

To obtain the proper tension on the V-belts, use the following procedure:

a. Loosen the motor tie-down bolts at least three turns.

 b. Move the motor outward until the desired belt tension is achieved. Correct belt tension

allows one quarter inch deflection with 8-10 lb. force applied per belt at mid-span.

c. Tighten motor tie-down bolts and replace belt guard.

d. Inspect and retighten new belts as required after 24-48 hours of operation.

7.3 COOLING FAN - The cooling fan is a sealed design and is not serviceable.

P/N: MAN-2V2B-8.6-13395  16

SECTION II - REPAIR

For O2 units, it is recommended that the user perform an O2 Burn-in procedure, per paragraph

3.1.1, after any maintenance involving the gas stream area of the unit. During this procedure alpersonnel should be separated from the compression area.

OXYGEN WARNING 

FOR OXYGEN OR NITROX SERVICE: To prevent FIRE, SERIOUS INJURY

or DEATH, it is the User’s responsibility to ensure that all parts used in the oxygen

contacting areas of the compressor are cleaned for O2 service prior to installation.

All gas piping and storage systems connected to the compressor must be oxygen

clean and constructed of oxygen compatible materials.

 No attempt should be made to work on the machine without full knowledge of

oxygen equipment handling procedures and the potential hazards of contamination.

Cleaning should be in accordance with Compressed Gas Association  publication 

CGA G-4.1, Cleaning Equipment for Oxygen Service.  www.cganet.com 

Any work to be done on the compressor where the gas stream may be exposed must be done in accordance with CGA procedures.

RIX factory oxygen cleaned parts are denoted by an “X” prefix at the beginning ofthe part number. It is the User’s responsibility to maintain the cleanliness of factory

cleaned parts, and any areas of the compressor gas stream that may be exposed to

contamination during maintenance.

Assembly drawings included in this manual may not have part numbers "X" marked

and therefore should be used for assembly reference only. Refer to the parts lists in

the RIX manual when ordering all parts.

The customer may alternately order non-O2 clean parts but will be responsible for

cleaning all parts prior to assembly onto the compressor. Relief valves or parts with"A" prefixes such as floating pistons would require disassembly for cleaning and

thus should not be ordered without O2 cleaning. RIX Industries is not responsible

for equipment damage, personnel injury, or consequential damages that may occur

due to the use of parts that have not been properly cleaned for oxygen service.

Use only oxygen compatible O-ring grease and either Viton or Teflon O-rings in

gas piping areas.

7.5 CYLINDER HEADS:

REMOVE HEAD

a. Relieve pressure and allow heads to cool. Disconnect piping from head.

 b. Note orientation of head to ensure proper reassembly. Remove retaining nuts using an

alternating pattern and lift head from cylinder.

INSTALL HEAD 

a. Install new o-ring or gasket in the head and/or or at top of cylinder as applicable.

 b. Correctly orient head and carefully lower onto cylinder making sure valve parts maintaintheir proper position. Install stainless nuts using assembly lube to prevent galling

Tighten in 5 ft-lb. increments using a cross sequence. Do not to overtighten as this can

damage valves and heads. Verify that head is on square and not cocked

7.5 COMPRESSOR VALVES:

A bad valve, either suction or discharge, will usually be indicated by higher than normal pressure on the

 preceding stage, or in the case of the first stage, a loss in flow along with low interstage pressures. Thiscan be caused by wear, breakage, warping of the reeds or fouling due to particulates which prevent the

valve from fully closing. Remove and service the valves as recommended in chapter 5, or if any of the

interstage pressures vary from normal and other possible causes have been eliminated.

Reed valves in 1.5” to 4.625” cylinders require Hex key wrench (Allen wrench) for disassembly. See

individual valve instructions for required wrench size. An o-ring pick tool (RIX #88-5812) is also

recommended.

Loctite is required for assembly of some valves. For O2 units use Green 290 only (RIX #35-7641)and ensure Loctite is fully cured before operation (24 hrs). For non-O2 units Blue 242 (RIX #35-5857)is acceptable. Helpful tip: use a small wire or o-ring pick tool and apply just enough Loctite to wet the

female threads (do not apply to the screw). This will require less than one drop. Otherwise the Loctite

may spread onto the reeds causing valve leakage.

When reinstalling valves, care must be taken to avoid damaging the o-rings. Lubricate o-rings with anappropriate grease, such as RIX #45-1007 (Krytox, O2 and breathing compatible).  Alignment pins

may also be lubricated to help hold in place. Avoid tilting the valve seat when installing in head andapply even pressure around the circumference until the seat is completely installed. On non-O2 units

Dow Chem #111 – Valve Lube & Sealant (RIX #45-403) may be helpful in cases where suction reed

valves must be held in place during assembly (not O2 compatible).

Note: After seat installation both suction and discharge holes must be visible or seat is in backwards.

Proper installation of a discharge reed can be checked by attempting to blow into discharge port. No airshould pass if valve and seat are correctly installed.

7.5.1 1ST STAGE VALVE ASSEMBLY 

Ref drawing A9285. 9/64" Allen wrench required

VALVE REMOVAL

a. Remove head (see section 7.4 for instructions).

 b. Remove o-ring and the three Allen screws that attach the valve assembly to the head.

c. Remove suction guard, suction reeds and valve seat. Remove upper o-rings.

d. Remove the screws holding the discharge reeds and backing plates. It may be necessary

to heat the screws to release the Loctite.

INSPECTION AND REPAIR

a. Inspect the reeds for wear, cracking or warping. Examine valve seat for wear or damage

A uniform imprint of the reed usually indicates the valve is sealing normally. Radia

lines or streaks extending outward indicate leakage. Clean or replace parts as required.

 b. If possible lap valve seat on a lapping plate using a fine lapping compound. Alternatelyon a flat plate, polish seat with 400 grit wet/dry sandpaper, then follow with 600 grit.

c. As necessary, carefully clean-up the inside surface of the head where the o-rings and

valve components slide into place. Use 400/600 grit sandpaper or Scotch Bright.

INSTALLATION

a. Once the valve components have been cleaned, proceed as follows:

 b. Attach discharge reeds and backing plates onto valve seat. Use Loctite (see Para. 7.5 for

 proper type). Use a minimal amount and be careful Loctite does not flow onto reeds as

this may prevent proper sealing.

c. Install upper o-ring in head using a small amount of appropriate grease to hold in place

Then install seat into head being careful that orientation is correct with screw holes

 properly lined up. Install suction reeds and guard.

d. Install the three socket head screws, making sure the screws do not bottom out in thehead before the valve assembly is fully clamped. Torque screws to 10 in-lbs.

e. Install lower o-ring in head using a small amount of lube to hold in place, then instal

head onto cylinder making sure the gas connection ports are oriented correctly. Tighten

nuts in 5 ft-lb. increments to 20 ft-lbs, or 25 ft-lbs. if self-locking nuts are used (lubedthreads). Verify that the head is on square and not cocked. Do not overtighten.

7.5.2 2nd STAGE VALVE ASSEMBLY 

Ref drawing A7998. 5/32" Allen wrench required

VALVE REMOVAL

a. Remove the head per section 7.4.

 b. Note the orientation of the suction reed valves. The reeds are not attached to the head

Remove reeds.

c. Remove the Allen screw (5/32") which holds the valve seat to the head and remove seatIf necessary use pliers in recessed area of discharge port to pull out valve seat.

d. Remove the two screws, valve backing plate and discharge reeds from the seat.

e Discard the o-rings. Clean, repair or replace parts as necessary.

VALVE INSTALLATION

a. Attach discharge reeds and backing plate with two screws onto valve seat. Use Loctite(see Paragraph 7.5 for proper type). Use a minimal amount and be careful Loctite does

not flow onto reeds as this may prevent proper sealing.

 b. Apply a light film of appropriate grease to the new o-rings.

c. Install the large o-ring in the head and the small ones on the valve seat assembly. Align

the pin hole in valve seat with the roll pin in the head and install into head. Install thevalve retaining screw with Loctite (see Para. 7.5 for proper type) and tighten to 10 ft-lbs.

d. Set the suction reeds on the valve seat using a small amount of compatible o-ring greasewhich will hold the reeds in place during installation. If new reeds are used, bend the tab

over the discharge port to a 45 degree angle. Do not put grease on or near the valvefinger. Stretch out the lower o-ring and install with lubricant to further assist holding the

valve reeds in place during assembly. NOTE: This o-ring does not provide sealing. For

non-oxygen units, Dow Corning Valve Lube is ideal for holding the reeds in place due toits sticking ability (RIX P/N 45-403).

e. Replace o-ring on cylinder liner. Note: if cylinder has been removed, make sure valve

cutout in top of cylinder is oriented to coincide with suction reed in head.

f. Carefully install the head assembly, making sure the inlet reeds do not fall out of place

Note: it may be easier to mount the head on the cylinder off the compressor and theninstall the two together. Tighten nuts in 5 ft-lb. increments to 20 ft-lbs, or 25 ft-lbs. if

self-locking nuts are used (lubed threads). Be careful to verify that the head is on square

and not cocked. Do not overtighten.

7.6 CYLINDERS: The compression cylinders must be removed to service the rings and pistons.

Each cylinder should be marked prior to removal to enable proper orientation upon reinstallation.

REMOVE AND INSTALL COMPRESSION CYLINDER.

a. Remove the cylinder head in accordance with Paragraph 7.4. b. Floating pistons may be pulled out top of cylinder with piston at TDC. Otherwise piston

may fall out bottom when cylinder is removed. For fixed pistons, turning the flywheel by

hand to position the piston at bottom dead center may ease removal of cylinder.

c. Being careful to prevent side stress on the piston and rod assembly, lift the cylinder off

the piston. Remove and discard the used O-rings. See chapter 5 for wear informationand end of this chapter for tolerances.

d. See instructions in piston ring replacement section(s) for reinstallation procedure.

7.7 PISTON RINGS: The rings should be replaced as necessary. On cylinders with fixed pistonsit may be necessary to remove the piston rod to change the rings. On high pressure stages with floating

 pistons it is not necessary to remove the piston rod or change the adjustment, unless the piston rod gas packing or oil seals require replacement. See following instructions for specifics.

On high pressure stages with floating pistons, there is a rider ring on the piston rod. The first time the

 piston rings are changed, this rider ring should be inspected and changed as necessary. The frequency atwhich this rider ring is replaced may be reduced depending upon the actual wear rate.

Drawing A3534 provides instructions for installing spiral rings.

7.7.1 REPLACE PISTON RING - FIXED PISTON  (all stages) 

The piston rings can be changed by removing the cylinder only. Although it may be simpler not toremove the piston, if the oil seals need to be changed, piston removal will be necessary anyway.

a. Remove the cylinder head in accordance with Section 7.4.

 b. Remove cylinder. If piston is to be removed, follow instructions in Section 7.8

c. Clean and inspect the cylinder bore for wear or damage (see ch. 5). Wear must be withinthe tolerance specified at end of this chapter.

d. Remove and discard the used rings. O-ring expanders (if used) must be replaced. Allow

o-rings 5-10 minutes to shrink back to original size before installing piston rings. Note

when replacing Micarta expanders it is a good idea to do a trial fit of the ring assembly inthe cylinder bore. Check to ensure the expander has a small gap between the ends.

e. Carefully spread each new ring and install in the groove. Repeat for each ring, being

certain the ends of the ring fit completely into the groove to insure proper sealing. Instal

rings with the gap 180˚ from the ring above. If a sleeve tool is available run piston thrutool to compress and set rings.

f. Reinstall cylinder (check for proper orientation), and piston assembly per Section 7.8

Carefully compress piston rings as piston is slid into cylinder, making sure the ends are

not pulled out of the ring groove. When installing piston into top side of cylinder, sleevetool may be used to aid installation. This procedure may require two mechanics. 

g. Install a new o-ring or gasket in head or at top of cylinder as applicable.

h. Reinstall the head per the applicable valve assembly instructions. Note: make sure head

is oriented properly with regard to the suction/discharge ports and that valve cutout in topof cylinder (if any) is oriented to coincide with suction valve in head.

i. Readjust piston rod per instructions in Section 7.9 (if removed).

 j. Rotate the flywheel by hand several times to be certain that the parts are free.

7.8 PISTON RODS & OIL WIPER SEALS 

REMOVE PISTON ROD

a. Remove cylinder and head in accordance with the appropriate sections of Chapter 7Remove distance piece covers.

 b. Turn the flywheel by hand to position the piston at top dead center.

c. Remove the set screw (7/64" allen wrench required) and slide the oil wiper box upward

on the rod until the guide piston jam nut is exposed.

d. Loosen the jam nut and screw the piston rod assembly out of the guide piston. The pistonadjustment tool (#88-A8037) or small screwdriver can be inserted in the hole in the rod to

aid in turning the rod. 

 NOTE: It is recommended that the oil wiper seals be replaced anytime the rods are removed

The piston rod surface in the oil seal area should be as smooth as possible - not exceeding afinish of 8 RMS finish is preferred.

7.8.1 INSTALL PISTON ROD and OIL SEALS

a. Install new oil seals in oil packing box (lips facing down). Pre-lubricate seals to avoid

damage during startup. Inspect o-ring on oil wiper box and replace if necessary.

 b. Install o-ring slinger onto piston rod. Slide oil packing box onto rod and then attach piston rod jam nut with machined side down. Screw the rod into the guide piston unti

the threads bottom

c. Reinstall the cylinder assemblies and adjust piston rod per instructions below.

CAUTION

The piston to cylinder head clearance adjustment is critical. Insufficient

clearance will result in the piston hitting the head.

7.9 PISTON ROD ADJUSTMENT

a. Turn the flywheel by hand to position the piston at top dead center.

 b. Screw the rod out of the guide piston until the piston touches up against the valve.

c. Be certain the piston is still at top dead center, then screw the piston down three quarters

of one turn. The piston-to-cylinder head clearance will be approximately .040 inch.

d. Tighten the jam nut to 25 ft-lbs. torque.

e. Slide the oil wiper box into position, pushing down hard to ensure it is fully seated

Tighten locking screw hand tight with 7/64" allen wrench (Note: overtightening may

dislodge packing box) and then secure using the jam nut.

f. Turn the flywheel by hand a few revolutions to be certain that everything is clear beforestarting the compressor.

Oil Packing Break-In:  None required.

7.10 CRANKSHAFT SHAFT SEAL: The shaft seal is located at the flywheel end of thecrankshaft. If significant oil leakage develops it should be replaced.

REMOVAL 

a. Remove flywheel and bushing by removing the three cap screws that secure the flywheeand hub to the crankshaft. Use these screws in the hub tapped holes to jack the flywhee

from the bushing. b. If possible, remove the seal with crankshaft intact. If this is not successful, the entire unit

must be disassembled and the crankshaft removed prior to seal removal.  

c. Inspect the crankshaft surface where the oil seal makes contact. Remove any burrs orscratches that might inhibit a tight seal. Be careful to avoid getting any foreign materia

on the exposed bearing.

REASSEMBLY

a. Reassemble in the reverse order, using a new oil seal.

 b. Be sure that the flywheel and drive sheave are lined up. This can be accomplished by

laying a straight edge across the sheave faces.

7.11 GUIDE CYLINDERS:

REMOVE AND INSTALL GUIDE CYLINDERS

a. Remove compression cylinder assemblies and oil wipers. Use special tool to hold guide

cylinder when removing piston rods.

 b. Remove nuts holding down the guide cylinder and carefully lift the guide cylinder off of

the guide piston.

c. Reinstall in reverse order. Install with mark "M" (on lower flange of cylinder) towards

flywheel. Use new gaskets if necessary.

7.12 CONNECTING RODS: The connecting rod uses automotive type bearing inserts on thelarge end and a pressed in needle bearing on the piston pin end. If the clearances are not within the

tolerances, the bearing shell, bushing or wrist pin should be replaced.

REPLACE CONNECTING RODS AND BEARING SETS

a. Drain oil from crankcase. Remove heads, compression cylinders, piston rods, and packing in accordance with the appropriate sections of Chapter 7.

 b. Remove the nuts holding the guide cylinder to the crankcase and lift the completeassembly including distance piece up and off the guide piston.

c. Remove the two nuts and separate the connecting rod. The oil dipper does not need to be

removed. Lift the connecting rod and guide piston assembly out of the crankcase

Remove the capscrew in guide piston and push the wrist pin out to separate the guide piston from the rod. Match mark the connecting rod upper end and cap if necessary.

d. Using a micrometer, inspect the connecting rod bearing, bushing and crankshaft journa

for proper size, out of roundness or taper. Repair or replace as required.

e. Inspect the wrist pin and needle bearings for wear or damage; replace if necessary. When

 pressing needle bearings into the connecting rod, be sure to press against the stamped end(end with identification markings) of bearings. There are two needle bearings per rod

and the end of each bearing should be flush with the outside of the connecting rod

f. Install the guide piston on a new rod in reverse sequence of removal.

g. Clean the rod and journal with a lint-free cloth and install new bearing shells in each halfof the connecting rod.

h. Apply a coating of crankcase oil on the bearing shell and crankshaft journal surface

Position the guide piston and rod on the crankshaft and install the cap, using the matching

numbers on the upper end and cap. Note: See photos below for correct oil dipperlocation. Install lockwashers and nuts and tighten the nuts to 15 ft-lbs torque.

i. Reinstall oil dippers on connecting rod caps if previously removed. Both rods require oi

dippers. When installed, each rod should be oriented such that the dipper points

downward towards the oil sump. If dipper does not point downward the rod must be pulled out and reversed. Torque the oil dipper bolt to 6 ft-lbs.

WARNING:  Incorrect installation of oil dippers can lead to insufficient lubrication and

catastrophic failure.

 j. Reinstall the guide cylinders over the guide pistons.

k. Fill crankcase with new oil.

l. Reinstall the compression cylinder assemblies per instructions.

m. Install distance piece covers.

7.13 MAIN BEARINGS: The crankshaft is supported in the crankcase by two main bearings

They are a tapered roller design. Lubrication is supplied by crankcase oil splash. There is no scheduled

maintenance for the main bearings.

REMOVE MAIN BEARINGS.

a. The compressor must be completely disassembled. See applicable instructions.

 b. Remove the flywheel and bushing by removing the three cap screws that secure theflywheel and bushing to the crankshaft. Use these screws in the bushing tapped holes to

 jack the flywheel and bushing apart. This will "unlock" the bushing from the crankshaft.

c. Remove the bearing support cover and connecting rods. NOTE: There are notches in the

 bearing support cover gasket so that the gasket is not damaged during disassembly.

d. Pull the crankshaft forward and remove it from the crankcase.

e. With a suitable puller, remove the bearings from each end of the crankshaft.

INSTALL MAIN BEARINGS.

a. Thoroughly clean the crankcase, crankshaft and bearing cover.

 b. Press a new bearing on each end of the crankshaft main bearing journals. Preheating the

 bearings to 250˚F will facilitate installation. 

c. Install a new shaft seal in the crankcase.

d. Install the crankshaft with bearings into the crankcase.

e. Install the bearing plate with new gasket.  Tighten the bearing plate bolts to 30 ft-lbs.

f. Install the connecting rods and guide cylinders. Rotate by hand insure all turns freelyFill the crankcase to the proper level with proper oil.

g. Install the flywheel, hub and key, drive V-belts and beltguard in the reverse order of

removal. Insure that flywheel and driver sheave are lined up.

h. Replace compression cylinder assemblies per instructions.

i. Connect all other equipment in reverse order of disassembly.

 j. Turn the flywheel by hand a few revolutions to be certain everything is clear beforestarting the compressor.

k. Start the compressor and check for gas or oil leaks.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR INSTALLING SPIRAL PISTON RINGS

ON FLOATING OR REMOVABLE PISTONS

Refer to applicable piston assembly drawing in manual

Some compression stages use spiral wound compression rings. The pistons may be fixed to the rod andremovable, or floating. To replace the piston rings, remove the head per service manual instructions.With the flywheel rotated to bring the piston to top dead center, unbolt and lift the cylinder up and overthe piston, or, if directed, pull the piston out of the cylinder.

Inspect the piston for wear and replace if necessary. Replace all piston rings and O-rings. RIX does notrecommend partial replacement of rings.

1. Stretch the O-rings and roll them on one at a time using an o-ring pick (RIX P/N # 88-5812 or

equivalent). Alternately, roll o-rings onto the outside tapered portion of the sleeve tube providedwith the compressor (See Parts List for part number). Slide the sleeve tool over the piston (to thefarthest ring groove first) and roll the O-ring into the groove, taking care not to cut the ring onthe sharp edge of the piston.

2. Before stretching or uncoiling the spiral piston ring, note that each ring is slightly dish shaped.

The rings should be installed with the bottom of the dish down against the piston grooveland (farthest from the compression area).

3. Gently stretch the piston ring and work it into the groove over the O-ring. Protect the thin endsof the piston ring with your thumb nail while working the ring down into the groove. The last1/4 inch of the spiral ring may be cut off if necessary.

4. Install the top and bottom rider rings, and pressure breakers if required. (note: additional spiralrings can be substituted for pressure breakers)

5. Slide the assembled piston into the sleeve tool, using the internal taper of the sleeve tool to helpcompress the rings into the groove. (The bottom end of the piston should be inserted into thetapered end of the tool, so it ends up on the non-tapered end) Gently work the sleeve tool ontothe piston, taking care not to pull out the thin ends of the piston ring.

6. After the piston has been installed in the sleeve tube, slide the piston back out and examine therings. Replace any damaged rings. Reinstall in sleeve.

7. When installing piston into cylinder, place the squared end of the sleeve over the cylinder and

 press the piston into the top of the cylinder bore. The tapped hole in the piston should be on top.

GENERAL

BEFORE INSTALLING, CHECK THE SENSOR MODEL SELECTED FORCOMPATIBILITY TO THE PROCESS MEDIA IN CONTACT WITH THE SENSOR AND WETTED PARTS.

The Spectra-10 pressure switch utilizes a diaphragm or piston sensor to detect apressure change. The response, at a predetermined set point, actuates a SPDTsnap-acting switch, converting a pressure signal into an electrical signal. Control setpoint may be varied by turning the internal slotted adjustment screw bushing accord-ing to procedures outlined in this document.

PROOF PRESSURE* LIMITS STATED IN THE LITERATURE AND ONNAMEPLATES MUST NEVER BE EXCEEDED, EVEN BY SURGES IN THESYSTEM. OCCASIONAL OPERATION OF UNIT UP TO PROOF PRESSURE IS

 ACCEPTABLE (E.G., START-UP, TESTING). CONTINUOUS OPERATION SHOULD NOT

EXCEED THE DISIGNATED OVER RANGE PRESSURE.

*Proof PressureThe maximum pressure to which a pressure sensor may be occasionally subjected,which causes no permanent damage (e.g., start-up, testing).

THESE PRODUCTS DO NOT HAVE ANY FIELD REPLACEABLE PARTS.

Please refer to product bulletin for product specificat ions. Product bulletin may befound at www.ueonline.com

(option M449 only)

MOUNTING

 ALWAYS LOCATE UNITS WHERE SHOCK, VIBRATION AND AMBIENT TEMPERATUREFLUCTUATIONS ARE MINIMAL. DO NOT MOUNT IN AMBIENT TEMPERATURE AREASEXCEEDING 160° F (WITH BUNA N CONSTRUCTION) OR 180°F (WITH VITON

CONSTRUCTION). IF SEVERE PRESSURE SURGES ARE EXPECTED, CONSIDER THE USE OF APRESSURE SNUBBER.

MOUNT USING PRESSURE CONNECTION: ALWAYS USE A WRENCH ON PRES-SURE CONNECTION WRENCH FLATS. UNIT MAY BE MOUNTED IN ANY POSITION.HOWEVER, IF INSTALLATION LOCATION RESULTS IN FREQUENT EXPOSURE TO

LIQUID, IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT THE UNIT BE MOUNTED VERTICALLY WITH THE PRES-SURE CONNECTION DOWN. IF UNIT IS TO BE SET AFTER MOUNTING, RAISE ADJUSTMENTCOVER, THEN THREAD IN PRESSURE CONNECTION UNTIL SNUG. VERIFY THAT ADJUSTMENTOPENING IS ACCESSIBLE.

 Panel mounting via 1/2" NPT (male) Electrical Connection

(termination type C)

Mount through 7/8" clearance hole in panel. Hold in place with serrated 1/2" conduit nut. Always support the unit by holding a wrench on the 11/16" hex nearest the conduit connec-tion.

Please read all instructional literature carefully and thoroughly before starting. Refer to the final page for the listing of Recommended

Practices, Liabilities and Warranties.

Part I - Installation

 Optional Surface Mounting Bracket (option M449)

The surface mounting bracket is a “C” style clamp with a single clearance hole toaccommodate a 1/4" screw. Insert the unit into the bracket, pressure connec-tion end first. Open the adjustment cover and mount the unit so that adjustmentopening will be accessible when the switch is mounted. Close the adjustment coverensuring that the bracket does not interfere with the cover. Failure to do so may resultin improper sealing of adjustment cover. Mount assembly in desired location.

 WIRING

DISCONNECT ALL SUPPLY CIRCUITS BEFORE WIRING UNIT. ELECTRI-

CAL RATINGS STATED IN LITERATURE AND NAMEPLATES MUST NOT

BE EXCEEDED. OVERLOAD ON A SWITCH CAN CAUSE FAILURE ON THE

FIRST CYCLE.

 WIRE IN ACCORDANCE WITH LOCAL AND NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODES.

Termination Type A, 0.11" push-on terminals
