Frick XJS and XJF Rotary Screw CompressorService Manual

GENERAL

This manual provides approved procedures for teardown,parts replacement, and rebuild of Model XJS and XJF 95/120compressors, manufactured by Frick and installed on RXBand RXF Rotary Screw Compressor Units.

To avoid errors when ordering parts, always provide completeModel Number and Serial Number.

GENERAL MAINTENANCE

Proper maintenance is important in order to ensure continued, trouble-free service from your compressor. Some areas critical to optimumcompressor operation are:

• Keep refrigerant and oil clean and dry to avoid moisture contamination.After servicing any portion of the refrigeration system, evacuate toremove moisture before returning to service. Water vapor condensingin the compressor while it is running, or more likely while it is shut down,can cause rusting of critical components and reduce the service life ofthe unit.

• Keep suction strainer clean. Check periodically, particularly on newsystems where welding slag or pipe scale could find its way into thecompressor suction. Excessive dirt in the suction strainer could causeit to collapse, dumping debris into the compressor.

• Keep oil filters clean. If filters show increasing pressure drop(indicating dirt or water), stop compressor and change filters. Runninga compressor for long periods with high filter pressure drop can causeoil starvation and lead to premature bearing failure.

• Avoid slugging compressor with liquid refrigerant. While screw-typecompressors are probably the most tolerant to ingestion of somerefrigerant liquid, they are not liquid pumps. Be sure to maintainadequate superheat, and properly size suction accumulators to avoiddumping liquid refrigerant into compressor suction.

• Keep liquid injection valves properly adjusted and in good conditionto avoid flooding compressor with liquid. Liquid can cause a reductionin compressor life, and in extreme cases, can cause complete failure.

XJS 95/120 S 0123 D

• Protect compressor during extended periods of shutdown. Ifcompressor will be setting for long periods without running,itis advisable to evacuate to low pressure and charge with drynitrogen or oil, particularly on systems known to containamounts of water vapor.

• Preventive maintenance inspection is recommended anytime a compressor exhibits a noticeable change in vibrationlevel, noise level, and/or performance.

NOTE: • Some photographs or illustrations in this manualmay be of prototype or special order units. Pro-duction models may vary in some detail fromthose shown.

• Some photographs or illustrations in this manualmay show units with optional equipment installed.These items are available through your autho-rized Frick Factor.

PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE INSPECTION ANDSERVICE

Frick Model XJS and XJF 95/120 Rotary Screw Compressorsare designed and manufactured to the highest engineering andquality standards to provide optimum performance and con-tinued service in applications of intended use, with no devia-tions from original design. A preventive maintenance pro-gram ensures maximum compressor life and minimizes costlyunscheduled unit downtime. Immediate shutdown and in-spection should be made if increased sound or vibration,increased shaft seal leakage, erratic slide valve operation,fluctuating oil pressure, loss of compressor efficiency, in-creased oil consumption, and/or oil contamination are ob-served. Major inspection should be made, per the schedule,listed in the Frick Rotary Screw Compressor IOM manual.

NOTE: If further teardown of compressor is required,continue to paragraph 1.4.1.

1.3.2 SLIDE VALVE AND SLIDE STOP – INSTALLA-TION.

NOTE: During reassemble of the compressor it is nec-essary to determine if the slide valve has excessive wear.Excessive wear is defined as the slide valve being able tomove upward into the rotor bore above flush. The pro-cedure to determine excessive movement is as follows.

1. Insert the slide valve into the s.v. bore of the rotor hous-ing. Without installing the rotors, install the discharge hous-ing to the rotor housing. Secure the discharge housing withtwo cap screws and insert dowel pins.

2. By inserting your hands through the suction ports, movethe s.v. into the discharge port so that the s.v. guidesare securing the s.v. in place.

3. Push against the side of the slide valve with one hand andby using either a thin feeler gauge or fingernail, determine ifthe slide valve moves into the rotor bore. The slide valveshould not rise above the bore.

If the slide valve does move into the rotor bore, it may benecessary to replace either the slide valve, the discharge hous-ing, or both. Because the slide valve guides on the dischargehousing are machined oversized , the slide valve must be handfitted to the discharge housing. Use the following procedurewhen new parts are required.

1. Install the slide valve in the rotor housing. Without install-ing the rotors, install the discharge housing with twocapscrews and dowel pins.

2. After inserting your hands through the suction ports, movethe slide valve into the discharge housing. The slide valvewill get tight within the guides. Pull the slide valve completelyout of the discharge port. Using sand paper, lightly sand theslide valve guides on the discharge housing. The process ofsanding the guides must be done with care. Ensure that thesanding is conducted evenly across the guides and removeonly a small amount of material before checking the fit. Ifexcessive material is removed from the guides, the slide valvewill move into the rotor bore.

3. The slide valve is correctly fitted when it is able to movesmoothly in and out of the guides a~ without moving into therotor bore.

Slide valve and slide stop installation shall be accomplished asfollows:

NOTE: Index numbers refer to Figure 1-4, unless other-wise noted.

1. Thoroughly clean all parts with OSHA approved, nonflam-mable degreaser and clean, lint-free rags.

2. Lubricate all internal compressor parts with a coat of cleanrefrigerant oil.

3. Install slide valve (21) into drive end of compressor.

NOTE: Installing shims will necessitate removal of dis-charge casing. (Refer to steps 8 through 15 of para-graph1.4.1.)

21. After attaining proper clearance, use drift tool to bend onetab of lockwasher on end of female rotor shaft into one of therecesses of locknut. This secures locknut in place and preventsit from turning on rotor shaft. Always use new lockwashers,never reuse lockwashers removed during disassembly.

22. Remove locknut (36), lockwasher (35), Spacer Tool, andbearing spacer (32) from male rotor shaft.

23. Place new o-rings (27 and 29) on balance piston (33) andnew o-ring (29) on piston sleeve (30). Assemble balancepiston, wave spring (31), and balance piston sleeve and installassembly over male rotor shaft. Balance piston faces out.

14. If same rotor pair is to be reinstalled, place original shims(removed in steps 14 and 15 of paragraph 1.4.1) over male andfemale rotors and against roller bearings. If a new rotor pair isbeing installed, use shims that were calculated in step 7, thissection. See Figure 1-6 for shim placement and correct orien-tation of bearings.

NOTE: Use 12mm T-wrench threaded into opposite endof rotor to prevent rotor from turning while using D i s -charge Ball Bearing Installation Tool.

15. Using Discharge Ball Bearing Installation Tool, installtwo angle contact ball bearings (26), one at a time, on femalerotor shaft. Ensure that bearings are installed with closed sideof inner races back-to-back (identification markings on bear-ings facing away from each other). See Figure 1-6 for correctorientation of bearings. (A .002-inch shim is required betweeninner races when wave spring is used on bore cover.)

NOTE: Use 12mm T-wrench threaded into opposite endof rotor to prevent rotor from turning while using D i s -charge Ball Bearing Installation Tool.

16. Using Discharge Ball Bearing Installation Tool, install twoangle contact ball bearings, one at a time, on male rotor shaft.Ensure that bearings are installed with closed side of inner racesfacing outboard (identification markings on bearings facinginboard). See Figure 1-6 for correct orientation of bearings.
