Keyless Flywheel Installation and Ignition Timing


This procedure applies to all Ajax models 2200 and 2800 series Ajax engines. It covers the installation of
the keyless ringfeder locking device fitted on flywheels on 2200 and 2800 series engines. The procedure
explains the method used to find top dead center (TDC) and proper ignition timing of the engine.

Installation
1. Stand the flywheel up on its edge, allowing access to both sides of the flywheel.

! Caution
Firmly secure the flywheel to prevent it from falling over.
2. Remove the rust inhibitor paper from the inside of the machined split ring on the ringfeder. Remove
ringfeder (collar, inner ring, and locking screws) from shipping container. Verify that the supplied
locking screw threads, screw head bearing area, and the taper of the inner ring are lubricated. If not,
lubricate with molybdenum disulfide grease, such as Molykote GN paste or equivalent.
3. Place the green ringfeder and split ring assembly on the machined diameter of the flywheel.
4. The bolts to be used on the ringfeder are metric. A 16 mm (FWF2500-1600) hardened flat washer is
required for every bolt. Start each bolt into the ringfeder, but DO NOT TIGHTEN

5. Use a fine file or emery cloth to remove any burrs from the flywheel and crankshaft, cleaning both
for assembly.
6. Coat the flywheel and crankshaft sparingly with engine oil. The flywheel to crankshaft fit is between
.001-.003. Do not over-lubricate.

Note
Step 6 should only be performed during initial engine assembly. Do not lubricate on field units.
7. Carefully place the flywheel on the end of the crankshaft. Do not bump the crank as this will create
a burr that can impede installation. Push the flywheel evenly onto the crankshaft until the face of the
Page 1 of 4

ESS-F-963
Title: Keyless Flywheel Installation And Timing

flywheel and the end of the crankshaft are even.

Note
Do not wiggle the flywheel in/out or try to turn the flywheel onto the crankshaft! It will create heat
and possibly gall the surface of the crankshaft.
8. After the flywheel is installed, snug several of the bolts in a criss-cross pattern to lock the flywheel to
the crankshaft.
9. Remove the crosshead side access door from power cylinder one.
10. Set the timing pointer on the ignition bracket, allowing 1/8 clearance from the flywheel. Adjust the
pointer until it is located in the middle of vertical slot on the bracket.

Finding TDC and Timing Degree Marks


11. Place a 4 bar or equivalent between the end of the crosshead and the pack flange. Bar the engine
over clockwise until the bar stops against the packing. Hold the flywheel in this position, keeping
the crosshead against the bar.
12. Mark the flywheel on the outer diameter (O.D.) with an ink marker at the pointer location. This is
Temporary Mark #1.
13. Remove the tension on the bar in the crosshead and remove.
14. Rotate the engine clockwise until is has passed TDC far enough to re-insert the bar.
15. Reinsert the bar and rotate the engine counter-clockwise until the bar stops the crosshead against the
packing. Hold the flywheel in this position.
16. Mark the flywheel on the O.D. with an ink marker at the pointer location. This is Temporary Mark
#2.
17. Release the tension from the bar and remove. Rotate the engine to allow access to both of the temporary marks.
18. Measure the distance between the marks. Divide the distance by two and, using an ink marker, create a third mark equidistant between the two marks. This will be Temporary Mark #T. Mark T
represents the Top Dead Center (TDC) of the crankshaft.

Note
You can verify the position of the TDC mark by measuring the distance between marks #1 and T, then
marks #2 and T. These distances should be equal.
19. It is now necessary to add the ignition timing mark. Verify that the ignition is properly set. All 2200
and 2800 engines use a 48 diameter flywheel. This means that:

3 = 1 Flywheel O.D. distance


9 = 3 Flywheel O.D. distance
11 = 4-5/8 Flywheel O.D. distance
20. Using one of the above distances, create a temporary mark on the flywheel to represent either 3, 9
or 11 (depending on model) before TDC or clockwise from the T mark on the flywheel.
21. Rotate the engine so that the timing mark is aligned with the flywheel pointer. This sets the crankshaft in the general range of normal ignition timing.
22. Use the nut and stud expanders to lock and hold the crankshaft in position. These should be
installed between the sheave and end cover. See Figure 2. This picture shows the method of locking
the crankshaft used during engine assembly. Alternate methods of locking are acceptable for field
installation.
23. Check that the timing mark is still aligned with the flywheel pointer. As a double check, verify that
Page 2 of 4

ESS-F-963
Title: Keyless Flywheel Installation And Timing

the scribed line located on the end of the crankshaft is positioned below horizontal. See Figure 3.
24. Loosen the ringfeder bolts to free up the flywheel on the crankshaft.

Setting Timing Of the Flywheel


25. Ensure that the ignition pickup coils are in the proper holes:





3 - Top Holes
9 - Two Holes From The Bottom
11 - Bottom Holes

26. Rotate the flywheel on the crankshaft, without moving the crankshaft itself, until the recessed magnet is centered over the number 1 pickup coil. This is the A pickup coil or the one closest to the
power end.
27. While keeping the magnet aligned, re-tighten the ringfeder to the flywheel. Now place a permanent
timing mark on the flywheel and mark it either 3, 9, 11 accordingly.
28. Permanently mark the TDC location and then erase all of the temporary marks made on the flywheel.
29. Remove all crankshaft locking devices and find TDC as in the above procedures to verify that the
TDC position and the ignition timing mark have been correctly located relative to the magnet position.
30. When certain that the permanent marks are correct, tighten and torque all flywheel bolts.
31. Match mark the flywheel coincident with the scribe line on the end of the crankshaft using a chisel.
Stamp a 1 next to this mark.
32. Stamp the engine serial numbers on the crankshaft and hub of the flywheel.
33. Chisel mark a line on the OD of the flywheel at TDC. Metal stamp a 0 next to this mark.
34. Chisel mark a line at either the 3, 9, or 11 (depending on model) on the OD of the flywheel. Metal
stamp the correct timing value next to this mark.
35. It may be necessary after engine start-up to readjust the timing pointer. The pickup coil should be
centered over the cylinder #1 recessed magnet when the pointer is pointing at the timing mark.

2804 (DPC-800) Engines Only


These engines do not use flywheel magnets and pickup coils. When finished with Step 20 above go
directly to Step 29.The magneto should be adjusted via the slotted holes on the mounting flange until the
cylinder #1 is aligned with the flywheel timing marks.

AJAX LOW EMISSIONS ENGINES
AJAX JET CELL OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE
ABSTRACT
The jet cell concept is required for low emission or emission reduction engines. The highenergy torch issuing from the pre-chamber allows the main chamber to be operated with a
leaner mixture and consistently ignited, as compared to a conventional spark plug
ignition of a lean mixture.
Also, the jet cell is applied to units to improve combustion stability and improve fuel
consumption when operating at variable speeds and reduced torque. This paper describes
the jet cell operation and general maintenance procedures relating to AJAX Low
Emissions Two-Cycle Engines.
JET CELL OPERATION
The jet cell, or pre-combustion chamber, is a unit which is installed in the cylinder head.
The nozzle end is designed with a specific volume and has a communicating angled exit
orifice. A spark plug for ignition and a fuel admission check valve complete the
necessary operational components.
Pilot fuel headers supply fuel to each admission check valve. The supply to the header is
taken prior to the governor regulated fuel valve, filtered, and the pressure regulated with
an additional regulator.
The ignitor fuel pressure is thus regulated manually according to site conditions.
For one cycle of operation, as the piston comes up on compression, the pressure within
the cylinder is lower than the pilot gas pressure and fuel is admitted into the cell. When
1

Revised 07/98

ESS-L-981
AJAX LOW EMISSIONS ENGINES

the pressure within the cylinder becomes greater than the fuel pressure, then the pilot
check valves close.
The main fuel valve admits fuel into the cylinder per the designed timing. Ignition occurs
within the jet cell and the rich fuel mixture ignites. The pressure rise caused by this
energy release forces the burning mixture to exit through the nozzle orifice across the top
of the piston in the main combustion chamber, igniting the main combustible charge.
IGNITION TIMING
In standard spark ignited engines, the spark plugs ignite the charge and a progressive
flame front occurs within the combustion chamber. Due to the time required for this
flame propagation, the ignition timing is approximately 9-12 before top dead center
(BTDC).
With the jet cell, a torch of fire emitting from the exit orifice penetrates into the fuel/air
mixture within the main combustion chamber. The mixture is ignited uniformly by this
higher energy source, which promotes faster burning. For this reason, the ignition timing
is set at 3 BTDC.
For an engine operating at 440 rpm, this sequence of fuel admission, ignition, etc., occurs
7.3 times per second, 440 times per minute, 26,400 times per hour, 663,600 times per day
(24 hrs), and 30 days of operation would equal 19,008,000 times.
MAINTENANCE
The jet cell, when installed into the cylinder head, has a round Armco iron gasket which
acts as a fire seal; a graphoil seal employed as a bottom water seal, and an O ring as the
top water seal.
The unit is held in place with a two-bolt flange and torqued to 70 ft-lbs.
If a cell is removed from the head, it is important that the access hole for the cell is clean
and free of any scale build-up. New gaskets and seals should be installed and the unit
properly torqued. A locating dowel is used to assure proper orientation of the exit orifice
of the cell in relation to the main combustion chamber.
SPARK PLUGS
Cooling of the spark plug is accomplished primarily through the spark plug gasket
seating surface and the threads. These areas within the cell have thin metal sections and
are surrounded with engine coolant.
In service, the center and ground electrodes will deteriorate, which increases the spark
plug gap. Erratic firing will occur once the gap increases 0.005-0.010 from the original
setting and the plugs should be replaced.

Revised 07/98

ESS-L-981
AJAX LOW EMISSIONS ENGINES

On older LE equipment (pre 9/92), where a YK-8209-C jet cell was used, a Champion
RW77N (BM-1022-2) spark plug with an initial gap of 0.015 to 0.018 was used. The
main chamber spark plug utilized the Champion W-18 (BM-1022). Current production
models (post 9/92) where a YK-8209-C-1 is utilized, use a Champion W-18 (BM-1022)
spark plug is used with an initial gap of 0.020. This allows use of the same spark plug
for both the main chamber and igniter. The current production jet cell (YK-8209-C-1)
identified with a 3/4 stamped on the top face.
IMPORTANT: Do not install the W-18 spark plug in the YK-8209-C jet cell. Damage
may occur to igniter and/or spark plug threads as the result of thread depth and thread
reach respectively.
The secondary ignition wiring and associated components should always be in good
condition.
FUEL ADMISSION CHECK VALVES
The primary check valve (P/N YK-8338-A) is most important in the operation of the jet
cell. As noted previously, the number of cyclic operations relates to the units speed, with
fuel being admitted when the cylinder pressure is less than the pilot fuel pressure and
being shut off the cylinder pressure increases. The check valve also withstands the high
pressure within the cell at time of ignition.
Present production check valves use a ceramic ball with tool steel enclosure and seat.
Ajax continues to improve the life and operation of the valves with ongoing research and
development programs.
From the primary check valve, the fuel gas enters the cell through drilled communication
holes. Due to fuel entrapment, incomplete combustion can occur in these passages, which
tends to produce a soot-carbon residue. In some cases, this build-up is not detrimental to
the check valves operation, but in other cases it can be severe. If this build-up becomes
heavy, erratic operation of the check valves will occur and they should be removed,
cleaned and tested.
Whenever the spark plugs are replaced, it would be appropriate to remove and clean the
check valves. Some end users have a spare set of check valves which are installed at this
time, and the removed set is cleaned for reinstallation at a later date.
An orifice (P/N K-8050) is installed on the inlet side of the primary check valve to allow
pilot fuel pressures to be comparable to main fuel pressure. The orifice resembles a 1/8
toe nipple. Ensure this is an orifice by visual inspection, noting a small 0.038 internal
hole. Clean when servicing the primary check valve.
Connected directly upstream of the orifice is a secondary check valve (P/N BM-21064).
This is utilized only as a backup to the primary check valve.

AJAX LOW EMISSIONS RETROFIT CONVERSIONS
13-1/4 & 15 BORES
SUPPLEMENT ASSEMBLY PROCEDURE

The new AJAX Low Emissions (LE) Engine utilizes a squish design combustion
chamber that includes a jet cell (ignitor cell). The assembly procedure is basically the
same as on a standard engine, with the following additions and changes in gas valve
timing, ignition timing and power piston position.
1. PISTON & HEAD INSTALLATION:
A) The piston used on the LE engine does not incorporate notches or tapped holes in
the crown for installation as compared to the standard combustion engine. It is
recommended that a rod wrench (or strap wrench) be used to install or remove the
power piston.
B) Screw piston into crosshead until approximately three (3) threads are left
showing. Do not tighten rod nut at this time.
C) Install cylinder head (with gasket) and torque to 600 ft-lbs.
D) Using solder, set piston-to-head striking clearance at 0.110 ( 0.010). This is
measured at the 6:00 position by inserting solder through the gas injection hole
down towards bottom of head. Roll piston forward (rotate crankshaft in CW
direction) past TDC, thus crushing solder. Using a micrometer or dial calipers,
measure thickness of crushed solder. Adjust piston position accordingly, to
obtain proper striking clearance. Refer to Figure 1.

E) Once clearance is set, torque rod nut and check clearance again. Piston has a
tendency to turn out slightly when tightening nut.
2. GAS CAM TIMING:
Refer to ESS-T-911 as a basis for fuel injection timing. The following changes must
be made when converting an engine to LE application.
A) The flywheel and gear shield must be removed in order to remove layshaft and
reset cam timing.
B) Cam timing is retarded from the standard 13 ABDC beginning of injection to 37
ABDC. DO NOT GO BEYOND 37 ABDC! If gears do not line up with cams at
37 ABDC, go back towards BDC (i.e. 35 ABDC). Beginning of injection is 37

SUPPLEMENT ASSEMBLY PROCEDURE

ABDC on all LE engines but the method of setting the timing is different on
DPC-800s & DPC-2804s.
C) On DPC-800s & DPC-2804s, the control box utilizes one (1) cam for two (2)
cylinders. #1 & #3 power cylinders run off the cam closest to the power cylinders.
#2 & #4 cylinders run off the other cam. Refer to Figure 2.

Figure 2. Control Box And Cams

#1 power cylinder gas cam timing is referenced off #3 bank on the control box.
The crankshaft should be rotated in a clockwise direction to 26 ABDC #1 power
cylinder. DO NOT GO BEYOND 26 ABDC! If gears do not line up with cams at
26 ABDC, go back towards BDC (i.e. 24 ABDC). The crankshaft is positioned
at 26 ABDC for setting cam timing on DPC-800s & DPC-2804s only. This is
due to the way the cam is installed on the layshaft. The result will be injection
beginning at 37 ABDC. Refer to FIG 3. The cam can now be set using the
method illustrated in ESS-T-911.
D) Once the preceding is complete, the layshaft gear should be installed and reindexed.
3. IGNITION TIMING:
Ignition timing is changed on all LE engines to 3 BTDC. New mag pickup brackets
are furnished for all conversions through the DPC-600 & DPC-2803 to accommodate
the timing change.

LE RETROFIT CONVERSIONS
SUPPLEMENT ASSEMBLY PROCEDURE

On DPC-800 and DPC-2804 engines where the ALTRONIC III is used, the alternator
must be removed and re-indexed to 3 BTDC (refer to the standard DPC-800/DPC2804 Operation & Maintenance Manual for procedure).

Figure 3. Alignment Of Crankshaft

4. IGNITOR ASSEMBLY INSTALLATION: Refer to FIG 4


A) Ignitor assembly is indexed with a roll pin that lines up with a slot machined in
the LE power head. This ensures proper direction of ignitor exit orifice. It is very
important that they are lined up properly! Misalignment will result in severe
piston crown damage. It should be noted that when ignitor is torqued into head,
the roll pin will not completely set into slot. This is only an alignment reference.
B) Install gasket (P/N SF-34-65) onto end of ignitor by pressing on or using small
amount of grease to hold gasket in place when installing ignitor into the head.
Insure O-ring is installed on ignitor at this time also.
C) Install water seal (P/N 2-013-129-002) into head.

D) Install ignitor into head being very careful not to damage water seal. This may
take some hand fitting of seal. Torque down in progressive 5 ft-lb increments to
70 ft-lbs.
5. SPARK PLUGS:
On older LE equipment (pre 9/92), where a YK-8209-C jet cell was used, a
Champion RW77N (BM-1022-2) spark plug with an initial gap of 0.015 to
0.018 was used. The main chamber spark plug utilized the Champion W-18
(BM-1022). Current production models (post 9/92), where a YK-8209-C-1 is utilized,
use a Champion W-18 (BM-1022) spark plug with an initial gap of 0.020. This
allows use of the same spark plug for both the main chamber and igniter. The current
production jet cell (YK-8209-C-1) is identified with a 3/4 stamped on the top face.
IMPORTANT: Do not install the W-18 spark plug in the YK-8209-C jet cell.
Damage may occur to ignitor and/or spark plug threads as the result of thread depth
and thread reach, respectively.

6. GAS INJECTION VALVES:


The gas injection valve used in the LE power end is of the same basic design as the
one used in the standard combustion assembly but the valve housing and plunger
housing are not interchangeable. The gas injection valve assembly on the LE engine
has a longer valve body housing and a shorter plunger housing to accommodate the
profile of the power head.
7. MISCELLANEOUS:
In addition to the preceding requirements, engines that are converted to the LE design
must have:
A) Dry-type, low restriction intake system
B) Ring gear start system on 15 bore engines
C) 3/8 hydraulic supply lines on gas injection system
D) Exhaust line adjustment to compensate for length of insertion pipe in muffler
If you have any questions or problems pertaining to an LE retrofit conversion, contact
your local AJAX-SUPERIOR representative.

Subject: Hydraulic Fuel Injection System
a) Potential Fire Hazard
b) Purging Procedure
c) Recommended System Modifications
A potential fire hazard exists on Ajax engines with hydraulic fuel injection:
1) An incorrect purging procedure can allow hydraulic fluid to
contact a hot exhaust pipe and ignite. Use the following procedure:
Hydraulic System Purging Procedure:

1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
7.
8.

Shut the engine off.


Pressurize the hydraulic reservoir to 15-20 psig.
Open the flow control valve (at control box) for the gas injection valve line to be purged.
Connect a 10-12 length of clear plastic 3/8 hose to the bleed valve.
Slowly open the bleed valve while directing purged fluid and bubbles into a clean container for reclamation.
After the fluid runs without bubbles, close the bleed valve.
Close the flow control valve at the control box.
Check the reservoirs fluid level. Be certain to depressurize the reservoir before replenishing the fluid.
Note
Use Ajax hydraulic fluid p/n YAE-2150-2.
Do not use other fluids.

2) A damaged purge valve assembly can allow hydraulic fluid to leak and contact a hot
exhaust pipe and ignite .
As seen in Figure 1, the bleed valve is assembled to the cap of the injection valve by use of a
pipe nipple and pipe tee. These assembled parts can be bumped and damaged when servicing
adjacent components such as cylinder heads. The pipe nipple can also be damaged if the gas
injection valve assembly is mishandled during servicing.

As seen in Figure 2, relocation of the bleed valve to the topmost part of the gas injection valve
minimizes damage potential, and permits more efficient purging of the hydraulic system.

Use of divider valve designs provides a simple, reliable and predictable approach to engine cylinder and compressor
cylinder lubrication. Simplicity is enhanced by use of a lubrication monitor that senses divider valve operation, and
displays pints/day of lube oil consumption based on RPM and a divider valve assemblys displacement volume.
The following rates for engine cylinders are based on the use of dry gas, and lube oil per Ajax engineering standard
ES-1006. HP listings are at standard conditions of 100F and <1500 elevation.

Installation Design for Permanent Ajax Compressor Packages

When designing the engine-compressor installation, several factors should be taken into
consideration which can affect the overall performance of the installation:

An adequate foundation must be provided to assure a stationary mounting base for the enginecompressor skid and any accessory equipment not mounted on the skid. If the unit is installed
inside a building or adjacent to other machinery, sufficient space must be allowed around the
unit to facilitate maintenance and service work (refer to the units foundation drawing).

Avoid arrangements that allow hot air from the muffler or cooler to flow to the air inlet of the
cooler or air cleaner.

It is recommended that the engine-compressor skid and accessories be placed on grouting on


the foundation to ensure full, even bearing support under the equipment. Grouting is poured
after the equipment has been properly set and aligned on the foundation. For a grouted installation, the foundation top surface should have a rough surface (not trowelled) to ensure an
optimal grout-to-cement bond.

Air cleaners may be located outside the building to avoid heat generated by the unit; however,
direction of prevailing winds should be considered in their location.

Installation of units inside buildings should be designed to allow for the passage of hot air
from the coolers to the outside through adequate natural ventilation or through ducting to the
outside of the building. Unitized vertical discharge coolers may frequently be installed outside
the building to ease the disposal of heated air.

The exhaust system must be properly designed for the operating conditions of the enginecompressor, both for proper scavenging of the power cylinders, and for correct dissipation of
exhaust heat.

The instrument panel should be placed in a location convenient for the operator.

NOTICE: The size and construction of the foundation must be selected to suit the soil
conditions at the unit location.
In designing the foundation, the static and dynamic loads must both be considered. The
unbalanced forces and couples of each engine-compressor unit are available, on request, from the
service branch or factory. In well compacted, high load capacity soils, (6 tons/ft2 minimum) the
minimum dimensions shown on the appropriate foundation drawing supplied should be adequate
for a reinforced concrete foundation (refer to the units foundation drawing).

! "#
The foundation design must include anchor bolts to secure the engine-compressor unit. Anchor
bolts must be located to achieve precise alignment with the skids anchor bolt holes (refer to the
unit foundation drawing). Use sufficiently long anchor bolts to ensure deep placement and
adequate length above the foundation (account for full thread engagement of nuts and space
required for grouting).
Preferred practice is to set anchor bolts while pouring concrete for the foundation. A common
practice is to use canister-style anchor bolts to afford position adjustment capability. Here, the
anchor bolt is centered inside a piece of 2 to 2-1/2 pipe and positioned so the top of the pipe is
flush with the top of the completed foundation. The open pipe end should be blocked to keep
foundation concrete out. This approach is illustrated in Figure 1.

&

'

If the foundation has already been poured, then anchor bolts may be set by first drilling holes in
the foundation and then placing and grouting the anchor bolts in. Sulphuring, a means to dissolve
concrete, may also be used to create anchor bolt holes.
In soils having a low load support capacity, a wider and longer foundation or one which angles out
at the bottom should be used to distribute the load over a larger area on the bottom face of the
foundation.
NOTICE: In general, it is poor practice to economize on the amount of concrete used on the
engine compressor unit foundation.
If the soil load bearing capacity is questionable, it is highly recommended that a soil analysis be
made prior to designing or pouring the foundation. If unsuitable soil is encountered, the
foundation design must be changed to accommodate the soil.

Allow foundation concrete to cure for at least 28 days before installing an engine-compressor
package. Using ASTM guidelines, a concrete physical properties test may be performed to ensure
that sufficient curing has occurred. Any concrete-related problems that may exist, such as low
tensile or compressive strength, may be detected at this time. If the concrete is ready for enginecompressor installation and grouting, then proceed with foundation surface preparation.
In order to achieve optimal grout-to-concrete bonding, prepare surfaces for grouting by chipping
away all laitance, oil-soaked concrete, and damaged concrete until 50% aggregate is exposed (the
foundation contractor may have already prepared the foundation in this manner). A chipping
hammer or 15-pound chipping gun (with chisel point) may be used for chipping.
NOTICE: Avoid heavy chipping guns as they may create micro fractures within the foundation.
Rebar wickets or dowels may be used to provide additional mechanical locks between grout and
concrete. These may be set by drilling into the foundation and inserting the wickets or dowels.
Locate the wickets/dowels away from foundation anchor bolts. Exposed length above the
foundation surface should be limited to 60% of the grout thickness (1-1/2 maximum for 2-1/2
grout thickness).
Determine whether or not grout expansion joints are required. Foam strips or other suitable
(compressible, temporary) material may be used. Strips may be secured to the foundation with
glue; apply wax to exposed surfaces to allow easy removal after the grout has cured. If a crane is
to be used to place the engine-compressor unit, then expansion joints may be installed in advance.
If jacks and rollers are used, then expansion joints should be added prior to lowering the unit.
Set leveling planes in level position on the foundation under the leveling screw locations.
Clean all residual paint, oil, grease, and dirt from foundation surfaces that will come into contact
with grout. For final cleaning, use the grout manufacturers recommended solvent using clean
solution and clean cloth for the last wash. Lacquer thinner may be substituted if necessary;
however, mineral spirits cannot be used for this purpose.
If cement-based grout is to be used then pre-soak the foundation with water to help ensure that
foundation concrete does not draw water away from the grout after placement.
If epoxy resin grout is to be used, then use compressed air to blow away all dust and debris and
dry all moist foundation surfaces.
NOTICE: Grout may adhere to levelling screws, tools, forms or other items which have not
been protected with paste type wax.
The end result is a properly prepared foundation ready for setting the engine-compressor package.

! "#
It is recommended that the skid bottom in contact with grout be free from all paint, grease, primer,
or other material that could inhibit grout bonding. A light film of rust is usually acceptable. Use
evaporative solvent to wipe down all skid surfaces to be bonded to grout.

The engine-compressor skid is normally set directly upon the foundation block. Where overhead
space and/or crane capacity permit, the unit may be lifted using brackets or lifting lugs (provided)
and placed over the foundation anchor bolts. Lifting cables must be provided with spreaders so
that the lifting cables will remain parallel to the vertical center-line of the unit.
If overhead lifting capacity is not available, then jacks and rollers (cribbing) may be used to move
the unit into place over the foundation anchor bolts.
Lower the engine-compressor unit to its final elevation. Allow 2 nominal clearance between the
foundation and skid (1-3/4 minimum, 2-1/2 maximum). This clearance is recommended to
allow sufficient room for placing grout to all necessary locations beneath the skid. Use leveling
screws to make final skid elevation adjustments such that all mounting pads are at the prescribed
elevation.

Make certain that the unit is set


level, accurately aligned with the
cooler, aligned with any other offskid accessories, and adequately
supported so that all bearing
surfaces on the bottom of the skid
have full contact to avoid
deflections in the bed or skid

Perform web deflection measurements on the engine to check crankshaft alignment. Use these
measurements to fine-tune the engine-compressor elevation using the leveling screws. For longterm engine performance it is essential that web deflections are held within specification (see
Ajax-Superior Engineering Standard ES-4025: Crankshaft Web Deflections for Three- and FourCylinder Ajax Engines).
Install belts on cooler drive and check alignment. Accurate alignment is essential to ensure
acceptable drive component service life and to eliminate detrimental loads and vibrations.
The drive alignment is checked by drawing a string taut between adjacent faces of the two
sheaves (pulleys), lined up to intersect the two hubs. When the drive is properly aligned, the string
will barely touch the face of each sheave at the points where the string crosses the sheave rims
(see Figure 2 below).

After properly positioning the engine-compressor unit, then finish up by taping off or pastewaxing all leveling screw threads so screws can be removed after the grout has cured.

Grout should have the following characteristics:

A consistency that allows for proper placement

High bonding strength

High dimensional stability

Strength to transmit static and dynamic forces from unit to foundation

Grout may be either of the conventional (cement based) type or of the epoxy resin type.
Each type has advantages and disadvantages:
Working Time: Check the grout specifications. Working time may vary from as little as 15-20
minutes to over 1 hour. Select a product that will allow adequate mixing, handling, and placing
time.
Working Temperature: Check the grout specifications. Manufacturers often recommend that
foundation, equipment, and grout materials attain equilibrium temperature on the order of 70F
before mixing and pouring. If possible, avoid grouting at temperatures below 50F, although
grouts for use at such temperatures are available. Note, however, that temperature can affect grout
working time.
Flowability: Most grout manufacturers will claim that their products are flowable, but this is a
relative term. Grout viscosity should not be too low (runny, not stackable) or too high (not
pourable). Grout flowability may be increased by reducing the amount of aggregate used. Consult
with the grout manufacturers technical representative if questions arise here.

! "#
Compressive Strength and Curing Time: Epoxy-resin grouts, although more costly, provide
greater compressive strength and cure much more quickly than do cement-based grouts.
Long-Term Performance: Properly mixed, installed, and cured cement-based grouts have very
good long-term dimensional stability but may degrade structurally (cracking) under continual,
excessive vibration input. Epoxy-resin grouts have better long-term structural integrity but, being
viscoelastic materials, are subject to creep that is heightened by elevated temperatures.
Tables 1 and 2 provide examples of cement-based grout and epoxy resin grout respectively.

may present certain health hazards.
The grout manufacturers handling
instructions should be strictly
followed.

Affirm that the selected grout will meet the installation load requirement, the working
temperature condition, and the working time requirement. Grouts such as those listed in Tables 1
and 2 have sufficient compressive load strength to support typical AJAX engine-compressor and
cooler packages.

Table 3 provides compressive load estimates for 2801-, 2802-, 2803-, and 2804-based units. Skid
footprint is the skid base area that will be in direct contact with the grout. The cooler load is
computed separate from the engine-compressor load for 2803- and 2804-based units.

NOTICE: The estimates in Tables 1,2, and 3 are for reference purposes only!
Be aware that total package weight is dependent on the number and size of compressor cylinders,
and the number of compression stages and associated pressure vessels. If needed, grout
manufacturer representatives can help in the grout selection process.

: Minimum footprint comprised of primary longitudinal skid members only.


: Compressive Strength (Pressure) = Unit Weight / Skid Footprint Area.

All grout should be mixed according to manufacturers instructions and recommendations.


All longitudinal skid members must be grouted. Major load-bearing lateral skid members should
also be grouted. Grout the skid base using procedures suitable to the application or unit involved.
The final grout level should be approximately up to the skid flange thickness. Care must be taken
to provide adequate forms to retain grout. Remove any excess grout before it has been completely
set.

After grout has set and cured sufficiently to carry the weight of the unit, relieve the load on all
levelling screws.

NOTICE: This is essential to insure that the unit is being supported only by the grout, not by
the screws.
Properly tighten foundation bolts after grout has sufficiently cured, and then recheck alignment.
Remove temporary expansion joint materials and fill expansion joints with joint compound.

67C Series Instrument Supply Regulators

TYPE 67CF FILTER REGULATOR


WITH OPTIONAL GAUGE

TYPE 67C OR67CR REGULATOR

Figure t Typical 6 7C Series Regulators

Introduction

The Types 67C and 67CS are the standard instrument


supply regulatorswithout a filter or internal relief.

Scope of Manual

The Types 67CF and 67CFS are equipped with a


filter for removing particles from the supply gas.

This manual provides instructions and parts lists for


67C Series instrument supply regulators. Instructions
and parts lists for other equipment mentioned in this
instruction manual, as well as for other 67 Series
regulators, are found in separate manuals.

Product Descriptions
The 67C Series direct-operated regulators are
typically used to provide constantly controlled,
reduced pressures to pneumatic and electropneumatic
controllers and other instruments. They are suitable
for most air or gas applications. Other applications
include providing reduced pressures to air chucks, air
jets, and spray guns.

The Types 67CR and 67CSR have an internal


relief valve with a soft seat for reliable shutoff with no
discernible leakage.
The Types 67CFR and 67CFSR have a filter and
internal relief valve with a soft seat for reliable shutoff
with no discernible leakage.

Specifications
Some general 67C Series ratings and other
specifications are given on page 2. A label on the
spring case gives the control spring range for a given
regulator as it comes from the factory.

Model 120 Series Filter Minder


Installation and Operating Instructions

INSPECTION
Before installation check the nameplate on each
instrument against the receiving paperwork and the
intended application for correct part number,
materials of construction, working pressure, dial
range, etc. If equipped with switches, check electrical
rating, type of enclosure, etc. Inspect for shipping
damage and, if damaged, report it immediately.
NOTE - Before attempting repairs contact your
local Mid-West Representative or our factor y.
Failure to do so will void any warranty.
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

The Model 120 Series "Filter Minder" is a rugged,


medium-range differential pressure instrument
available as a switch, a gauge, or both. See "Part
Numbering System". (Fig. 4) for available options.
Differential pressure is sensed by the movement of a
floating piston magnet against a calibrated spring. The
magnetically coupled gauge pointer outside the
pressure housing follows the movement of the piston
magnet and indicates differential pressure on the dial
scale.
When equipped with switches, a contact is made or
broken by the magnetic field of the piston magnet.
See Bulletin ELECIM120/latest for gauges with
switches.
The unit provides full over-range protection to the
rated working pressure of the housing in either
direction.

The precise piston/bore fit allows minimal leakage


from high to low sides. This leakage is only 5 to 15
SCFH air at ambient conditions and a pressure
differential of 100 PSID.
INSTALLATION

Model 120 Series "Filter Minder" is calibrated and


tested prior to shipment and is ready for immediate
installation. Use of the following installation
procedures should eliminate potential damage and
provide optimum trouble-free operation.
1. CONNECTIONS
1/4 FNPT are provided as standard but check
paperwork for connections ordered. There are two
connections on the housing identified as hi and lo
for high pressure and low pressure (Fig. 2). Be sure
these get plumbed to the proper connections on your
system. Improper connection will not damage the
instrument, but it will not function properly. Flexible
tubing is recommended to minimize the effect of any
vibration that may exist.
2. INSTRUMENT LOCATION
On liquid service the instrument should be mounted
below the process connections to facilitate selfbleeding. On gas service it should be located above
the process connections to promote self-draining. If
the process contains particulates, a pigtail loop or
drop leg (manometer U-tube configuration) in the
tubing will minimize the possibility of it migrating into
the instrument.

3. PANEL MOUNTING
Gauges with 2-1/2 dials can only be mounted
through the rear of the panel. Make the proper panel
cutout as indicated in (Fig.1). Remove the (4) bezel
screws. Insert the gauge front through the rear of the
panel and reinstall the bezel screws through the front
of the panel and into the gauge bezel. Tighten the
screws securely, alternating in a diagonal pattern.
Gauges with 3-1/2" dial should be mounted from the
front of the panel. Contact factory for mounting
information and dimensional data.
Gauges with 4-1/2" dial should be mounted from the
front of the panel. Make the cutout as indicated in (Fig.
1). Insert the (4) panel mounting studs, finger tight, into
the metal inserts located in the rear of the bezel. Insert
the gauge through the panel, aligning the panel
mounting studs with the holes in the panel. Install the (4)
#8-32 nuts onto the studs and tighten securely.

TROUBLE SHOOTING
1. Gaug e does not indicate differential.
A. Check for proper hook up, high to hi and low
to lo.
B. Make certain block valves are open and, if using
a 3-valve manifold, that the equalizer (balance)
valve is closed.
C. If A & B check out correctly, loosen or
disconnect the high pressure line to determine
if there is pressure to the instrument.
D. If there is pressure to the instrument, check to
determine that there is differential across the
unit being monitored. If so, contact the factory
for assistance and/or an RGA (return goods
authorization) number to return the instrument
for repair or replacement.

4. PIPE MOUNTING
An optional pipe mounting kit is available for mounting
the gauge to a 2 vertical or horizontal pipe (Fig. 3).

Free Floating Guided Lever Drain Traps


For Loads to 9,500 lblhr(4.309 kglhr) ...Pressures to 570 psig (39 bar)

hms-

Armstrong's stainless steel, free-floating guided lever drain


traps use the same bodies, caps, lever mechanisms, valves
and seats of Armstrong inverted bucket steam taps that
have been proven in years of service. Elliptical floats and
high leverage make it possible to open large orifices to
provide adequate capacity for drain tap size and weight.

The hemispherical valve, seat and leverage of the 11-LD,


22-LD and 13-LD stainless steel traps are identical in design,
materials and workmanship to those for saturated steam
service up to 570 psig (39 bar) with the exception of the
addition of a guidepost to assure a positive, leaktight valve
closing under all conditions.

REPLACING AND INSTALLING THE DVOA ASSEMBLY

When replacing/installing the old style DVO assembly with the new style (DVOA), tubing and fitting modifications are required. We suggest
removing the L1200NDVO/DVOR from the vessel. Relieve pressure from the vessel or use block valves before removing the L1200NDVO/DVOR.
Replacing and Installing the DVOA
Assembly For Models L1200NDVO &
L1200NDVOR

NOTE: Clean, dry instrument quality gas should be used.


Use of filters will improve service life and reliability.

Tools Needed: Strap or pipe wrench; 3/4 Hex wrench; 9/16 hex
wrench; needle nose pliers; tubing cutters and benders and the
appropriate tools for the fittings.
1.

Block off and bleed the instrument gas pressure supply to the
L1200NDVO.
2.
Remove the tubing between the L1200NDVO and the
separator dump valve, and remove the supply gas tubing
(regulator [-R] if used).
3.
Remove the L1200NDVO from the vessel (optional).
4.
If the L1200N was removed from the vessel, mount it in a
suitable vise on a work bench (if possible).
5.
Using the proper tools, disconnect the Inlet, Outlet and
Exhaust fittings from the existing DVO (see fig. 1). You will
re-connect these to the new DVOA in a later step.
NOTE: The following steps must be done with the DVO in the
upright position (on top of the L1200N).
6.
Remove the L1200N cover (this will aid with the alignment
of the new DVOA Valve Bushing). The use of a strap
wrench or a pipe wrench may be needed.
7.
Insert the new Valve Bushing through the new DVOA (see
fig. 2). The markings on top of the DVOA must be facing
up. This will be needed in step 9.
8.
With a 3/4 hex wrench loosen the existing DVO, valve
stem, and static seal (see fig. 3). Once the assembly is
loosened, VERY CAREFULLY use needle nose pliers to
hold the Valve Seat Assembly in place. Remove the existing
DVO making sure the Valve Seat Assembly inside the
L1200NDVO is aligned and straight (see fig. 4).

CAUTION: MAKE SURE the Valve Seat Assembly inside


the L1200N remains in place after removing the DVO.
Holding the Seat Assembly up with the needle nose pliers
inside the L1200NDVO body, place the tip of the new
DVOA valve bushing through the spring and into the hole in
the center of the valve seat, and tighten the valve bushing.
The Valve Seat Assembly should be able to move freely up
and down after the bushing has been tighten. The DVO red
button must face away from the vessel.
10.With the new DVOA aligned over the hex on the L1200NDVO
body, tighten the Valve Bushing using the 9/16 hex wrench.
You may need to hold the DVOA while tightening the Valve
Bushing to keep it from rotating (see fig. 5).
11.If the L1200N is in the vise, operate the float and inspect for
smooth and proper operation of the Valve Seat Assembly.
12.Replace the L1200NDVO cover (see fig. 6).
13.Using the appropriate tools re-install the Inlet, the Outlet and
the Exhaust fittings to the new DVOA (see fig. 5).
14 If the L1200N was removed from the vessel re-install it at this
time.
15.Modify existing or install new tubing to connect the Inlet, the
Outlet and Exhaust fittings.

is recommended. Screw the unit directly into the threaded
connection in the wall of the pressure vessel.
4. Be sure that the electrical connection is positioned at the
bottom. For L1200N the 1/8 NPT pneumatic connection
should be on top (the 1/4 NPT vent connection should be on
the bottom). See Pneumatic models section for further
instructions for the L1200N.
5. Make the electrical wiring connections according to
appropriate wiring diagrams for the alarm or shutdown
system to be used. The electrical connection is 1/2-14 NPT.
Electrical wiring and conduit should be installed by qualified
personnel according to the NEC.
6. BE SURE all electrical connections are insulated and the
cover is fully installed before reconnecting electrical power.
7. BE SURE all pressure connections are tight before
pressurizing the system.

NOTE: Check filter periodically for wear and tear and
elements that hamper the flow of the pneumatic signal.
2. All pressure connections must be tight and maintained tight
so as not to leak air/gas.
3. Valve seat adjustment can be made if air/gas begins to leak.
Care should be taken when adjusting as only slight movement
is necessary to stop the leakage; excessive force will bind the

TYPICAL INSTALLATION ON GAS COMPRESSORS

Basic Operation
As condensate rises in the scrubber, the float on
the L1200NDVOR rises and trips its pneumatic
valve. The valve opens allowing pressure to enter
the dump valve pilot chamber. Once the pressure
enters the pilot chamber it forces the diaphragm
and valve stem forward thus opening the valve seat
(valve open/closed indicator button pops out) and
releasing condensate through the valve stem and
out the drain. As the condensate level drops, the
L1200NDVOR pneumatic valve closes to shut off
the pressure to the dump valve causing it to close.
If for any reason the condensate continues to rise
beyond normal dump levels, model L1200
operates the alarm and/or shuts down
the equipment.
The L1200NDVOR Filter/Regulator and the
MURPHYGAGE help keep the control pressure
clean and dry. They also allow the operator to
adjust pressure to recommended levels.

Description
The DVU Series models are pneumatically controlled dump valves.
The valves open and close automatically by pneumatic control from a
Murphy L1200NDVOR or similar level controller and dump valve operator. Diaphragm actuated, the DVU series dump valves operate at 3070 psi
(207483 kPa) [2.074.83 bar] and up to 2000 psi (13.8 MPa) [138 bar]
vessel pressure (depending on the model).
A key benefit of this design is a hex union that provides the ability
to replace the seat without removing the valve from piping.

TYPICAL INSTALLATION ON GAS COMPRESSORS

Fig. 3
Scrubber/Separators
Basic Operation
As condensate rises in the scrubber, the float
on the L1200NDVOR rises and trips its pneumatic valve. The valve opens allowing pressure to enter the dump valve pilot chamber.
Once the pressure enters the pilot chamber it
forces the diaphragm and valve stem forward
thus opening the valve seat (valve open/closed
indicator button pops out) and releasing condensate through the valve stem and out the
drain. As the condensate level drops, the
L1200NDVOR pneumatic valve closes to shut
off the pressure to the dump valve causing it to
close.
If for any reason the condensate continues to
rise beyond normal dump levels, model L1200
operates the alarm and/or shuts down the
equipment.
The L1200NDVOR Filter/Regulator and the
MURPHYGAGE help keep the control pressure clean and dry. They also allow the operator to adjust pressure to recommended levels.

NOTE: Always use clean, dry,


instrument quality gas.

The Murphy Gas Compressor Scrubber Level System (SLS)


The system provides for liquid control in gas scrubber
applications, by dumping liquids to drain and protecting
compressors with a high liquid level switch. Wetted metal
parts are made to survive
constant use in corrosive
environments.
See Bulletin: SLS-04005B for
more details.

High Level Shutdown Switch


Stainless steel float actuated level switches to alarm
and/or shutdown the equipment.
L1200: 2 NPT pipe connection; Rated 2000 psi
(13.7MPa) [137bar]; Class I, Division 1. SPDT

Replacing the Plug and Seat


1. Close the pressure block valves (suction & discharge valves) on the inlet
and outlet of the skid. Lock them closed if possible.
2. Open the blowdown valve to remove pressure from the unit. Lock the
blowdown valve open if possible.
3. After taking all possible precautions to insure there is no pressure in the
vessel. (If the condensate line is pressurized, it must also be blocked and
locked.) Open the manual drain valve so it bleeds into the vessel so it
can also be bled down. Disconnect the pneumatic input signal connection
after insuring it also has been de-pressurized.
4. Using a back-up wrench on the valve body, with a quick "breaking"
action loosen the union nut on the valve. There is a "weep" hole in the
nut. If at any time while loosening and taking off the nut pressure is
escaping through the "weep" hole, immediately stop loosening the nut.
Retighten the nut and check the preceding procedures to ensure the pressure is bled off the vessel. Never remove the assembly if pressure is
coming through the weep hole. See Figure 4 on page 2.
5. With the upper assembly removed from the vessel the plug and/or seat can
be replaced. Loosen the 9/16 jam nut on the maintenance bolt on top of
the diaphragm cover. Spin the nut up against the head of the bolt. Tighten
the bolt to extend the shaft and plug. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN.

6. Using a back-up wrench on the plug, remove the stem nut on the shaft
under the plug. Once the stem nut is broken loose, the 9/16 head maintenance bolt and top assembly will keep the stem from turning. The plug
turns freely on the stem once loose. The plug and seat can now be
removed. All soft seals should be replaced. Refer to kit part numbers
under service parts on page 4.

Replacing the Diaphragm


6A. If the diaphragm is to be replaced, all preceding steps have to be
done. Additionally, do the following:
6B. Loosen the 9/16 head maintenance bolt, allowing the diaphragm
spring to relax, and the stem to retract. Make alignment marks on
the top and bottom halves of the diaphragm assembly for alignment during re-assembly.
6C. Remove the 8, 7/16" bolts/nuts holding the diaphragm housing
together.
6D. Using a straight edge screwdriver, gently separate the 2 halves of
the diaphragm housing, and remove the top, or outside portion.
6E. Lift the diaphragm and support plates far enough for the 1-1/8" hex
or 1 round nut on the bottom of the diaphragm assembly to be
accessible to a wrench and not have the spring interfere. If it is
desired to replace the packing, pull the stem all the way out. The
packing can be easily removed using a small screwdriver to pry the
packing out. The new packing can be simply pressed in, making
sure the orientation of the packing installed is the same as the orientation of the packing removed. The packing is wider toward the
plug end. You will have to use the seat to hold the packing in place
when re-inserting the stem.
6F. With the 1-1/8" hex or 1 round nut held by a wrench, use a
wrench to loosen and remove the 1/2" nut on top of the diaphragm.
The diaphragm can now be removed and replaced.
6G. With the new diaphragm in place and the 1/2" nut tightened, place
the assembly, diaphragm down on a clean, smooth sturdy surface.
6H. Have the seat, plug, washers and stem nut handy (if any of these
parts are to be replaced, use the old parts for this procedure). Press
down evenly and smoothly on the bottom of the diaphragm assembly to cause stem to come up. Place the seat and plug in place.
Then push the bottom of the diaphragm assembly down far enough
to install the washers and stem nut on the stem. Tighten the stem
nut enough to hold against the diaphragm spring.
6J. Align the diaphragm holes to the bolt holes (bottom half of the
housing). Install the upper diaphragm housing using the alignment
marks from step 6B. Install the 8, 7/16" bolts and nuts. Tighten the
bolts evenly going from one bolt then 180 around to the next bolt,
then either 120or 240 around to the next bolt and so forth until
all 8 bolts are evenly tight.
6K. Using the 9/16 head maintenance bolt, tighten, pushing the stem
out until the 9/16"bolt stops DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN.
6L. Remove the stem nut holding the plug. (If old parts were used, prepare to install the new parts now.)

7. Install the seat and plug. Place the O-ring on the stem, followed by the
washer and stem nut.
8. Tighten the stem nut. Loosen the 9/16 head maintenance bolt by at least one
turn past the point where it is no longer in contact with the stem. Tighten the
9/16" jam nut holding the 9/16 head maintenance bolt.
9. Replace the crush washer and the O-ring hidden by the union nut.
NOTE: If pressure or fluid comes out the weep hole of the union nut,
either the O-ring under the union nut is leaking, or the packing could be
leaking through the internal weep hole above that O-ring.
10. The assembly is ready to be re-installed. Check for relative position of
the pneumatic input signal connections before tightening the union nut.

Follow all safety warnings of the machine manufacturer.
Read and follow all installation instructions.

Model M5081
Approved*

M2582 and M5081Series


Tripping Power From Engine Ignition System or Battery
(Models available for magneto, CD ignition or 12/24 V battery)
These fuel shut-off valves are semi-automatic devices for shutdown of
natural gas fueled engines. The standard valve opens by manual
operation of the reset handle. A latch in the upper body of the valve will
set and hold the valve open. At this point no electric power is used.
The electromagnetic coil is de-energized, the snap-switch(es) is SET.
If a SWICHGAGE contact closes, a circuit is completed from power
through the snap-switch and coil. Now energized, the electromagnet
trips the latch, (latch can be tripped manually), the valve closes, and the
snap-switch resets. Power switches from the coil circuit to your choice
of an open line, an electrical ground, or an alarm. After tripping, the
vent seal opens, and on the M50 models, the open/close indicator (green
button) retracts to indicate that the valve is closed.
Valve body is sandcast aluminum. Optional cast steel for M5081 models.
M2582-P and M5180-P
MURPHY-NUMATIC Pneumatic Version for Pressure
The M2582-P and M5180 pneumatically controlled valves can operate
from pressure, and are designed to open and close automatically or semiautomatically (the supply can be air, oil or gas).
NOTE: If using oil as a pressure source, use a lightweight oil.
These valves will open on rising control pressure and close on
decreasing control pressure. M2582-P and M5180-P automatically open
at 2 psi (14 kPa) [0.14 bar] and fully open at 3 psi (21 kPa) [0.21 bar].
All models include a built-in lever to aid in opening the valve manually.
The M2582-P can be manually opened against inlet pressure of 80 psi
(552 kPa) [5.52 bar]. The M5180-P valve can be opened against inlet
pressure of 100 psi (689 kPa) [6.89 bar].
Standard models include an escape vent for gas trapped forward in the
line after shut-off.

M5081FS
Normally Energized Circuit
The M5081FS is manually opened, electrically latched open and tripped
by interrupting the coil power circuit.

Magnetic Switch Adapter

As ignition systems wear from usage, their power output becomes less
and less. Ignition may not have the capacity to reliably trip the Fuel
Valve. Therefore, the use of a Magnetic Switch Adapter for CD
ignition systems is recommended. The Magnetic Switch Adapter is a
device that stores energy from the CD ignition to trip the Fuel Valve.
Three models are available:
65700053 (was 65020126): For use with negative ground ignitions
up to 240 VDC.
65700054 (was 65020127): For use with positive ground ignitions
up to 450 VDC.
65700055 (was 65020155): For use with negative ground ignitions
up to 450 VDC.

100 ohm, 2 watt Resistor

For Capacitor Discharge Ignitions that are specified to be grounded when


the valve closes, and a Magnetic Switch Adapter is in use. The resistor
must be connected in the system to prevent damage to the snap-switches
in the fuel shut-off valve (see typical wiring diagrams).

Diode Package

The Murphy diode package (65010065) is designed to allow the fuel shutoff valve to be used with dual Magneto Ignition systems.
NOTE: All aluminum versions of the M5081 Series Fuel Valve carry
Canadian Registartion Number OC1476.2.
* M5081 model is CSA approved for Class I, Division 1, Groups C and D.

Type 119 Control Valve

June 1990

Form 5204

Introduction
Scope of Manual
This instruction manual provides installation, spring adjustment, maintenance, and parts information for the Type 119
control valve.

Description
The Type 119 control valve (figure 1) is used for on-off or
throttling control of noncorrosive or mildly corrosive liquids
and gases. It is designed to meet the low-pressure liquid
and gas application requirements in many varied industries.
As loading pressure is applied to the Type 119 control valve
diaphragm, the disk holder is pulled off the orifice. As loading pressure is reduced, the opposing spring force moves
the disk holder toward the closed position, resulting in
spring-close action should a loss of supply pressure occur.

W3735-1

Figure 1. Type 119 Control Valve

Specifications
Table 1 lists specifications for the Type 119 control valve.
Some of the specifications for a given control valve as it
originally comes from the factory are stamped on a nameplate (figure 2) located on the spring case flange.

the service conditions do not exceed the limits shown in table 1. The leak-off and spring
case vents must be kept open. To avoid danger of fire or explosion from venting of flammable or otherwise hazardous fluid into a
closed or poorly vented location, pipe the
vents to a well-ventilated location, away
from any buildings or windows so as not to
create a further hazard.

WARNING
To avoid personal injury or property damage
caused by controlled process fluid or bursting of pressure-retaining parts, be certain

2. The control valve can be installed in any position, but


the normal orientation is with the actuator portion vertical
above the body. If installing the control valve at an outside
location, point the spring case and bonnet vents in the
downward direction to protect them from moisture or foreign
materials.

1. Before installing the valve, be sure the valve body and


associated equipment are free of damage and foreign material.

Spring Adjustment

Figure 2. Type 119 Nameplate

The control valve spring has been selected to meet the


pressure condition requirements of the application as specified on the order. This pressure condition is stamped on
the actuator nameplate.

3. Install the valve using accepted piping practices. Make


sure that the valve is oriented so that flow through the body
will match the flow direction arrow on the body.

The spring has a fixed pressure span over which loading


pressure will stroke the valve. Adjustment of the spring
compression shifts the span so that more or less loading
pressure is required to start travel. Since the span does not
change, there will be a corresponding increase or decrease
in the pressure requirements at the end of the valve stroke.

4. If continuous operation is required during maintenance


and inspection, install a three-valve bypass around the control valve.
5. Connect the control pressure line to the 1/4-inch NPT
connection in the valve body bonnet marked PILOT.

If the control valve has been disassembled or pressure


conditions have changed, the spring may need adjustment
to make the valve travel coincide with the diaphragm pressure range. Make the adjustment in the following manner.
Key numbers refer to figure 3.

Type 119
1. Loosen the locknut (key 13) on the spring case.
2. Turn the adjusting screw (key 12) clockwise to
compress the spring (key 16) or counterclockwise to
decrease spring compression. Increased spring compression results in increased loading pressure necessary to
start travel. Decreased spring compression results in less
loading pressure required to start travel.
3. After adjustment, tighten the locknut. Note that the
spring can be identified by the color code. Depending on
how much conditions are changed, it may be necessary to
install a new spring, using appropriate steps in the Maintenance section. After changing the spring, adjust the valve
using the above steps in this section, and indicate the new
spring range on the nameplate.

7/8-inch socket wrench, and replace it with a new seat ring


of the proper size.
4. Remove the bonnet O-ring (key 11), and inspect it for
wear and damage.
5. Unscrew and remove the spring case cap screws (key
14). Remove the spring case, upper spring seat, and spring
(keys 2, 17 and 16). Do not lose the nameplate (key 20)
when removing the spring case.
6. Pull the hair pin clip (key 6) from the stem and remove
the disk holder assembly (key 4).
7. Pull the diaphragm/stem assembly (key 5) out of the
bonnet (key 9), and inspect for damage or deterioration. If
necessary, replace the entire diaphragm assembly.
8. Without removing the O-rings and bushing spacers
(keys 8 and 7) inspect their inside diameter surfaces for
damage or deterioration.

Maintenance
Valve parts are subject to normal wear and must be
inspected and replaced as necessary. Inspection and
maintenance depends on the severity of the service
conditions.

WARNING
To avoid personal injury or property damage
caused by sudden release of pressure or
uncontrolled process fluid, isolate the
control valve from the pressure system, and
release all pressure from the valve body and
actuator before performing maintenance
operations.
The following describes the procedure for complete
disassembly and assembly of the actuator-valve body
combination. When inspection or repairs are required,
disassemble only those parts necessary to accomplish the
job. Key numbers refer to figure 3.

Disassembly
1. Isolate the control valve from all pressure, and release
pressure from the valve body and actuator. Loosen the locknut (key 13), and remove all spring compression from the
control valve by turning the adjusting screw (key 12) out of
the spring case.
2. Remove the two bonnet cap screws (key 15, not shown)
that secure the bonnet to the body, and lift the spring case,
bonnet, and trim assembly from the body.
3. Examine the seating edge of the orifice (key 3). If it is
nicked or rough, unscrew it from the body with a thinwall
1. Trademark of Never-Seez Corp.
2. Trademark of Tretolite Div. of Petrolite Corp.

Note
The following step should be performed
only when there is an indication of O-ring or
bushing spacer failure.
9. Remove the internal retaining rings, stem wipers, Orings, and bushing spacers (keys 10, 19, 8 and 7). Inspect
these parts for wear or deterioration, and replace if necessary.

Assembly
This procedure assumes that the control valve has been
completely disassembled. If the control valve has been only
partially disassembled, start these instructions at the appropriate step.
1. If the orifice (key 3) was removed during disassembly,
lubricate the threads with Never-Seez(1) lubricant (key 21)
or equivalent, and screw it into the valve body using a thinwall 7/8-inch socket wrench.
2. Lubricate the bushing spacers, O-rings, stem wipers,
and internal retaining rings (keys 7, 8, 19 and 10) with Dow
Corning(2) No. 111 silicon-base lubricant (key 22) or equivalent, and install as shown in figure 3.
3. Carefully slide the diaphragm assembly (key 5) into and
through the O-rings and bushing cavity. Turn the diaphragm
assembly to line up the diaphragm holes with the bonnet
holes.
4. Slide the disk holder assembly (key 4) all the way into
the stem. Connect the disk holder assembly with the hair pin
clip (key 6).
5. Coat the bonnet O-ring (key 11) with Dow Corning No.
111 lubricant (key 22) or equivalent. Install the O-ring in the
recessed notch in the bonnet (key 9).

TDI TURBOTWIN
FROM TECH

DEVELOPMENT INC

1.0 GENERAL INFORMATION


This manual provides instructions for the installation and
operation of the TDI T100 TURBOTWIN Starters (Series:
B,D,F,P). If there are questions not answered in this
manual, please contact your TDI TURBOTWIN distributor or
dealer for assistance.
The T100 TURBOTWIN models are turbine driven starters
with an inertially engaged starter drive. Depending on the
starter model and engine installation, the TURBOTWIN
starters have applications ranging from 1200 CID (20 Liters)
on diesel engines and up to 15000 CID (250 Liters) on gas
engines. The TURBOTWIN models are suited to operate
within a wide range of inlet pressures and ambient
temperatures. The engine size and parasitic loading will
determine the exact minimum pressure that will assure
reliable starting.
The T100 TURBOTWIN starters are designed for operation
with compressed air or natural gas; materials used are
compatible with sour natural gas and marine environments.
Small amounts of foreign matter or liquid in the air stream
will not adversely affect TURBOTWIN starters. As with all
other TDI starters, no lubrication is required in the air supply.
Please review the rest of this manual before installing the
T100 TURBOTWIN series air starter.
WARNINGS, CAUTIONS AND NOTES
Certain types of information are highlighted in this manual
for your attention:
WARNING - used where injury to personnel or
damage to the equipment is likely.
CAUTION - used where there is the possibility of
damage to the equipment.
NOTE - used to point out special interest
information.
NOTE
Throughout this manual, the term air is used to designate
the starter drive medium. Unless other wise stated, air
means either compressed air or natural gas.
1.1 DESCRIPTION
All models feature three basic subassemblies: a unique two
stage turbine motor section, a planetary gearbox section and
an inertia drive assembly.
The two stage motor section features greater stall torque
than a single stage turbine plus aerodynamic speed control.
Page 2

This aerodynamic speed control helps protect the


TURBOTWIN starter from damage caused by starter motor
over speed.
The T100 TURBOTWINS employ a 7.5:1 or 9:1 ratio
planetary gearbox. This low gear ratio allows the turbine
motor to spin at low speeds for long bearing life. At a
typical 3000 rpm pinion speed, the turbine is cruising at a
low 22500 rpm (7.5:1 ratio). Reliability and part commonality
are designed into all TURBOTWINS.
A simple and reliable inertia drive delivers the torque to the
pinion. The pinion is thrown out to engage the engine's ring
gear by the turbine motor's acceleration. Lighter weight
rotating parts used in the TURBOTWIN provide low inertia
and even "softer" engagement. In the event of overpressure, the friction clutch used in every TURBOTWIN
protects ring gear teeth from static torque overloads. In
addition, an inertia engaged starter eliminates the need for
complex pre-engagement control plumbing...and is easier to
install and maintain than pre-engaged type starters.
Compressed air or natural gas is used to power T100
TURBOTWIN air starters through the inlet port. The air or
gas is expanded through the first nozzle or stators. The high
velocity gas impinges on the first stage rotor to yield torque
to the gearbox. The gas is further expanded through the
second stage stators, which impart additional torque to the
second stage rotor.
1.2 PRODUCT IDENTIFICATION
The starter nameplate which is attached to the turbine
housing contains the following information: model number,
serial number, part number, direction of rotation and the
maximum rated operating pressure.
The directions of rotation are either right hand or left hand
rotation as shown in Figure 1. Right Hand rotation is defined
as clockwise rotation as viewed from the pinion end of the
starter, and Left Hand rotation is counter clockwise rotation
viewed from the pinion end of the starter.
The maximum operating pressure is also stamped on the
nameplate. This pressure is measured at the check port on
the starter inlet with the starter in operation.
CAUTION
Exceeding the maximum pressure shown on the nameplate
may result in drive failure, damage to the starter, or damage
to the engine.
The housing proof pressure is 600 psig and is also shown
on the nameplate. This means the turbine housing will not
burst when subjected to a static pressure of 600 psig.

WARNING
If a fuel (pulse) lubricator has previously been installed in the
system, disconnect and plug the line to eliminate spraying
diesel fuel on the engine.
The starter should be installed with the inlet in a position
between horizontal and straight down. Any condensation will
be restricted to the air lines and not in the starter.
WARNING
Do not operate this starter unless it is properly connected to
an engine.

1.3 PERFORMANCE
Graphs of the performance curves feature pinion torque
versus pinion speed (rpm) at constant drive air pressures
and shaft horsepower versus pinion speed at constant drive
air pressures. Pinion speed is shown on the horizontal axis.
The pinion torque is shown along the left edge vertical axis.
The shaft horsepower is shown along the right edge vertical
axis. Air consumption rates are given for the various drive
pressure lines. These performance curves feature air as the
drive gas and have open exhaust (standard exhaust guard)
which have no back pressure.

2.0 ORIENTATION OF THE STARTER


2.1 GENERAL
If the factory orientation of the starters pinion housing
assembly in relation to the inlet port does not fit your engine
installation, these components can easily be re-oriented.
All TURBOTWINS have the capability to rotate the inlet port
relative to the drive opening for the optimum inlet port
location. The number of different positions is 6 to 12
depending on model.

3.0 INSTALLING THE STARTER


A turbine air starter does not require lubrication in the supply
air. Therefore, if a vane type starter motor is being replaced,
TDI recommends that all lubrication devices and lines
removed to minimize flow restrictions.

Publication T1-702, Rev 1


Issued January 22, 2001

WARNING
Be sure to either bleed the pressurized air reservoir and/or
safety the system such as closing all valves prior to installing
starter supply line.
The T100 TURBOTWIN series air starters come standard
with a 2" NPT female pipe thread for the inlet connection
port. The supply line consists of the line from the air source,
a pressure regulator (when necessary), a manual or relay
valve, and the connection to the starter inlet. Hard piping
may be used, but a section of flexible tubing should be
installed at the starter to prevent leaks due to engine
vibration.
Care must be taken to ensure that all inlet supply line piping
is no less than 1.5" and all components used are capable of
passing the required air flow.
NOTE
Valves with a Cv of 40 or higher are recommended.
If the supply line must be longer than 20 feet, the inlet supply
line piping should be increased to 2" in diameter to ensure
proper performance by your TURBOTWIN.
Because turbine starters such as the T100 TURBOTWIN
series are sensitive to flow restrictions, care must be taken
to use uniform hose or tubing and fittings for connection of
the supply line. Tees, elbows and line length must be kept
to a minimum. TDI recommends that hose or flex couplings
are installed to eliminate possible leakage caused by strain
on the supply line.
Normally, an air strainer is not required. However, in dirty
environments use of a #40 mesh Y-strainer is
recommended. The T100 TURBOTWIN series is highly
tolerant of dirt in the air line, however, starter life can be
increased with the use of an air strainer.

A pressure regulator is required when the air supply


pressure is great enough to exceed the starter operating
pressure (at the inlet port) and/or the maximum torque.
A manual ball valve may be used to admit drive air/gas to
the starter. The manual valve should be located in a safe
position away from the engine.

installed at the pressure check port and electrical lines


routed to a digital display at the operator's station.
This pressure port is invaluable in diagnosing air starter
and/or installation problems.
3.3 EXHAUST PIPING

A preferred valve is pilot-operated, which can be


pneumatically or electrically actuated. The valve should be
located close to or even on the starter inlet for best
performance. Pneumatic or electrical control lines may be
routed virtually anywhere for the customer's preferred
operating station. This type of valve actuates from a fully
closed to a fully open position very rapidly. TDI offers a
variety of relay valves such as P/N RLVA-25683-001-2-01,
which is a 1-1/2" port, pneumatically actuated valve.

The turbine exhaust may be plumbed away from the starter


area. All starters using natural gas must be piped according
to industry codes and local regulations.

The supply line should be dry-fitted for proper alignment


/location prior to final assembly. All pipe threaded joints
should be sealed with Loctite Pipe Thread Sealant (TDI P/N
9-94085) or equivalent for leak tight joints prior to final
assembly. Be sure to tighten all joints to proper torque after
final assembly.

Exhaust piping should be routed downward to help prevent


any accumulation of condensation in the starter motor.

CAUTION
In cold weather climates, care should be taken while
designing your installation to prevent condensation from
developing in the starter system. In systems with a regulator
valve or relay valve, there is the possibility of freeze-ups.

Exhaust piping should be routed downward to help prevent


any accumulation of condensate in the starter motor.

A tee connection with a quick disconnect can be added to


the inlet. This will allow an external air source to be used to
accomplish a blow start if the system freezes. Once the
engine has been started, the other system components may
be thawed.
CAUTION
On new installations, it is strongly recommended to blow out
the supply line with air to remove possible dirt and welding
slag prior to final connection to the TURBOTWIN starter. Be
sure to secure the free end of the supply line prior to blowing
out the line.
3.2 INLET PRESSURE PORT
A 1/4" NPT port is located on the air inlet. This port may be
used to check the supply pressure at the starter when the
starter is operating. Remove the 1/4" NPT pipe plug and
save for later use. Install a 1/4" minimum size tubing to the
port. Route the tubing away from the starter to a safe
location away from the engine. Install a pressure gauge on
the tubing. This pressure monitoring line/gauge may be
permanently installed. Use Loctite Pipe Thread Sealant or
equivalent. Alternately, a pressure transducer may be
Page 4

The performance of a turbine starter will be decreased


because of back pressure when smaller than recommended
exhaust piping is installed. If back pressure hampers starter
performance, compensation can be made by increasing the
supply pressure. Consult your TDI distributor for advice.

If the overhung section of the starter is not otherwise


supported, TDI recommends supporting the exhaust piping
with a suitable bracket(s).

3.4 NATURAL GAS INSTALLATION


The installation of the starter using natural gas is similar to
the air installation except all fittings, piping, valves and
regulators must be compatible with natural gas.
Proper control of natural gas is a major consideration when
used in the starter system. All starters using natural gas
must pipe the exhaust according to industry codes and local
regulations.
There is a natural gas vent port in the turbine housing that is
plugged for compressed air use. This vent is used to remove
any natural gas that could leak past the primary turbine shaft
seal. Remove this 3/8"NPT plug and install a line to carry
gas away from the starter area.
WARNING
Do not connect the turbine housing vent line to the turbine
exhaust line. Exhaust gas can pressurize the housing.
3.5 PIPING SYSTEM
Only type approved metallic hose assemblies are approved
in permanently pressurized compressed air lines of starters.
Non-metallic hose assemblies are allowed only in case the
piping system will be emptied after the starting procedure.
Publication T1-702, Rev 1
Issued January 22, 2001

TDI TURBOTWIN
FROM TECH

Pipe unions must be type approved by GL. Downstream of


the pressure regulator a pressure relief valve is to be
provided.
3.6 BACKLASH
Backlash is the "free play" between the mesh of two gears.
Figure 15 shows the backlash between two gears.
Maintaining the proper gear backlash setting allows the
gears to mesh smoothly. Proper backlash and alignment
allows smooth engagement/disengagement of the pinion
gear and loads the tooth face surfaces evenly producing
longer gear life. The correct backlash setting for 6/8
diametral pitch gearing used on larger engines is as follows:
Minimum backlash
Maximum backlash

.015 inch
.025 inch

To check the backlash, the pinion will need to be rolled out


onto the end of the drive prior to starter installation. This can
be accomplished by using a hex drive wrench to rotate the
turbine end of the starter while holding the pinion from
rotating. The pinion will simply walk to the end of the shaft.
An access hole to reach the turbine screw is provided in the
turbine exhaust guard. The starter must then be installed on
the engine. Checking backlash can be accomplished using
a dial indicator or a simple blade-type feeler gauge. Because
ring gears are not usually perfectly round, it is necessary to

mounting bolts. Torque the three 5/8" screws to 100 lb-ft.

4.0 STARTER OPERATION


Prior to operation, check that all connections are tight and
free from leaks. Check the 1/4" NPT pipe plug or a pressure
gauge/transducer that may be connected to the pressure
port on the starter inlet.
WARNING
Do not operate the TDI TURBOTWIN starter with air pressure
greater than the pressure rating on the nameplate. This
pressure is measured at the starter inlet while the starter is
running.
The maximum operating pressure limit is the inlet pressure
measured at the starters inlet pressure check port. In order
to check the starter, a 1/4"NPT pipe tap connection is
provided in the inlet housing to attach a pressure
gauge/transducer). The maximum pressure assumes an
open exhaust (standard turbine exhaust guard). The
standard exhaust guard causes no back pressure.
The static non-flowing supply pressure will always be higher
than the operating (dynamic) pressure. The maximum
pressure limit (proof pressure) that the TDI TURBOTWIN
starter housings may be subjected to is 600 PSIG (42 BAR).
System pressure that exceeds the maximum operating limit
must use a pressure reducing device to ensure that the
operating pressure limit to the TDI TURBOTWIN starter is
maintained.
System static pressure that exceeds the 600 PSIG (42 BAR)
limit must, in addition to pressure reducer devices
incorporate a pressure relief valve set below 600 PSIG (42
BAR) in the supply air line.

Figure 2. Checking Backlash

NOTE
For maximum life of the starter pinion and for the protection
of the engine ring gear, limit the operating pressure to that
necessary to start the engine at its most difficult starting
conditions.

check backlash at several (six or more) points around the


circumference of the ring gear. Average the highs and lows
to allow a setting that is in the range cited above.

All appropriate local pressure codes and pressure limitations


on other system components must be adhered to and
supersede the guidelines given in this manual.

Setting the correct backlash may involve "shimming" and/or


moving the starter bracket(s). An adjustable starter bracket
design will simplify this procedure. Always re-check the
backlash after a ring gear replacement.

Consult your TDI distributor if you have exhaust plumbing


that creates back pressure and reduces starter
performance. You may be able to increase the supply
pressure to restore the lost power.
Follow the engine manufacturers instructions for starting the
engine.

Liberally grease the starters drive teeth with chassis lube


and then mount the TURBOTWIN starter on the engine.
Tighten all mounting hardware as appropriate. Make sure to
use Loctite Threadlocker #290 or equivalent on the starter

4.1 BASIC OPERATION

TDI TURBOTWIN
FROM TECH

speed.

The basic operation of the starter is as follows:


Pressurized air or natural is admitted to the starter by
opening of the manual or relay valve. The air expands
through the turbine, which produces shaft rotation and
torque. The acceleration of the drive assembly causes the
pinion to advance and engage the ring gear of the engine.
The starter motor torque causes the engine to accelerate.
This acceleration causes the pinion to be disengaged from
the ring gear. The fuel and ignition systems now fire the
engine. Closing the relay valve stops the starter.
The operator may decrease starter life by the continual
operation of the starter after the engine has started. Upon a
successful engine start, turn the air off to the starter
immediately. Minimizing the time the starter is operating
unloaded (i.e. the engine is running) will maximize starter
life. If a start is aborted, a restart may be attempted after the
engine and the starter has come to rest.
CAUTION
Do not engage the starter while the engine is running.
The drive air pressure is the primary starter control
parameter. It is important, especially on new installations, to
measure this pressure during several engine starts. The
secondary parameter is the starter pinion speed. This speed
is usually measured by knowledge of the engine starting
speed and the starter cranking ratio. The cranking ratio is
the number of ring gear teeth divided by the number of
pinion teeth. The starter pinion speed is then found by
multiplying the engine speed by the cranking ratio. The
pinion speed is usually 2000-3500 rpm at typical engine
starting speed.
4.2 AUTOMATED START PANEL
The starter drive pressure measured at the starter inlet must
be set. As noted above, for maximum life of the starter
pinion and for the protection of the engine ring gear, limit the
operating pressure to that necessary to start the engine at its
most difficult starting conditions.
The speed control parameter will then need to be set.
Engine starting speed along with the cranking ratio number
can be used to determine starter pinion speed. The pinion
speed is usually 2000-3500 rpm for a typical engine starting
speed. Once the start sequence has begun, the air is
admitted to the starter. The starter begins to accelerate the
engine. Once the firing speed of the engine is reached, the
automated start panel may deliver fuel to the engine. The
engine will begin to accelerate under its own power. The
starter should be dropped out of the sequence at a rpm
higher than the firing speed, but less than the engine idle
Page 6

The automated start panel should monitor engine speed to


determine air on and air off. Do not simply use time as a
control parameter. Avoiding excessive operation of the
starter after the engine is firing will maximize the starter life.

5.0 PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE


The TDI TURBOTWIN starters provide distinct advantages
of size and efficiency as compared to electric motor, vanetype or other turbine-type starters. It is important to properly
install the starter to receive full benefit of these advantages.
Repair technicians or service organizations without turbine
starter experience should not attempt to repair this machine
until they receive factory approved training from TDI, or its
representatives.
Proper operation and repair of your TDI TURBOTWIN
starter will assure continued reliable and superior
performance for many years.
5.1 Every Six (6) Months
Perform the following procedures at six(6) months intervals
if the normal cranking cycle is 0 - 10 seconds.
5.1.1 Check the amount and condition of grease in the
planetary gearbox. If gearbox requires re-greasing, only use
TDI grease. Approximately one (1) pint of grease is needed
to repack the gearbox.
5.1.2 Check the turbine bearing and carrier output bearings
for freedom of rotation without excessive play between
races. If bearings are damaged, replace them with genuine
TDI parts. Refer to TDI Service Manual for part numbers.
5.1.3 Place a small amount of chassis lube on the starters
pinion teeth.
5.2 Every Three (3) Months
Follow the six (6) month procedures if there is severe starter
loading or extended duration crank cycles. Also perform
these procedures every three (3) months when starter is
used for motoring the engine for maintenance or valve
adjustments.
Motoring Crank Cycle: 10 -60 seconds
Extended Crank Cycle: 60 seconds or longer
starter, use only genuine TDI replacement parts. The
component part numbers are found in the Illustrated Parts

SECTION 1.0 INTRODUCTION


1.1 GENERAL INFORMATION
This manual provides information for servicing,
disassembly, and reassembly of the TDI Turbotwin
T100 series air starters. If there are questions not
answered by this manual, please contact your local TDI
distributor or dealer for assistance. Illustrations and
exploded views are provided to aid in disassembly and
reassembly.
The TDI Turbotwin T100 series of engine starters are
specially designed for starting todays automated, lowemission engines. The Turbotwin uses aerodynamic
speed control, eliminating the need for a mechanical
automatic trip valve (ATV) to control starter motor
speed.
The Turbotwin T100 series air starters are suited to
operate within a wide range of inlet pressures and
ambient temperatures. These starters are designed for
operation with either compressed air or natural gas.
The robust turbine motor design in the Turbotwin T100
series starters has no rubbing parts, and is therefore
tolerant of hard and liquid contamination in the supply
gas with almost no adverse affects. The motor is well
adapted to running on sour natural gas.
As with all TDI air starter products, there are no rubbing
parts so there is no lubrication required.
This
eliminates failures due to lubricator problems, the
expense of installing and maintaining the system, and
the messy and hazardous oil film around the starter
exhaust. The starter is factory grease packed for the
life of the starter so it requires no maintenance.
NOTE
Throughout this manual, the term air is used to donate
the starter drive medium. Unless otherwise stated, air
means compressed air or natural gas.
Please review the rest of this manual before attempting
to provide service to the TDI Turbotwin T100 series
starters.

1.2 WARNINGS, CAUTIONS, & NOTES

Scope
Demco resilient seated butterfly valves are an
economical alternative to ball, gate or plug valves
in many applications. They are light weight
quarter turn devices with few parts. They are
designed for bubble tight sealing up to rated

pressure and are capable of throttling service.


They are easily adapted to automatic actuators.
The Demco butterfly valve is available in flangeless
wafer design or single flange tapped lug configuration.

Storage
Demco butterfly valves are shipped in the partial
open position to minimize permanent deformation of the resilient seat. The disc edge is
contained within the flange faces of the valve to
prevent damage to the sealing area (Figure 4).
Caution: Valves with fail open or closed
actuators are shipped with the disc in the
fail position, and extra care should be
given to prevent damage to the disc
edges.
Valves should be stored in a clean dry area away
from extremes of heat. The resilient seat surfaces should be protected from sunlight and
physical abuse.

Page 7 of 12

Installation
Direction Demco butterfly valves are bi-directional and will
operate in any position. Normally the valve is
installed with the upper stem pointing upward
(Figure 5). Elevated valves with gear operators and
chainwheels should be installed with the upper
stem pointing down (Figure 6) so the open-closed
indicator is visible from the ground and the chain
does not drag on the pipe.
End-of-Line Service Demco tapped lug butterfly valves are suitable for
liquid service end-of-line applications with downstream piping removed (Figure 7). Only weld neck
or socket weld flanges can be used for this service.
Since the upstream pressure is excluded between
the flange and the seat face by the exclusive
Demco flange seal, there is no effective force to
slide the seat downstream.

Figure 5

Caution: The valve must not be opened or


closed with the downstream piping removed as the seat might be shifted breaking the flange seal and allowing pressure
to slide the seat downstream.
Gaskets
Flange gaskets are not required nor recommended
for use with positive shut-off Demco butterfly
valves. An integral flange seal is molded into the
edge of the rubber seat eliminating the need for
flange gaskets.
Throttling Valves, only, utilize an o-ring stem
seal that must be assisted with flange gaskets for a
proper seal.

Figure 6

Flanges Steel Class 150 ANSI (or MSS SP-44) weld neck, slipon, threaded and socket weld as well as stub end
type C flanges are suitable for use with 2 thru 24
Demco butterfly valves. 30 and 36 Demco
butterfly valves fit between ANSI 125 flanges (or
MSS SP-44).
Other flange types may be applicable also, but
should be thoroughly checked to assure proper seal
makeup. Plastic flanges are subject to damage at
installation by over-tightening the bolting and
may deflect or cup resulting in flange leaks.

Disc to Pipe Clearance Before beginning installation, disc/pipe clearance


should be checked to avoid the possibility of
scraping the disc edge on the pipe ID and damaging the sealing surface. Minimum pipe ID requirements are given in Table 1.

Procedure
The following procedure applies to new installation between standard ANSI pipe flanges. When
replacing a valve from an existing installation,
clean flange faces and check for excessive corrosion or other damage to the sealing face of the
flange.

wafer body is equal to the inside of the bolt


circle of the flanges, so the valves are selfcentering.) Install the remaining flange bolts.
3. Lug bodies have tapped holes coinciding with
those in the flanges. They should be positioned between the flanges and the capscrews
inserted through the flange holes into the
threaded lug holes.
1. Remove the valve from any packaging mate4. Tighten all bolts or capscrews in a crossover or
rial. Close the valve disc so that it is contained
star pattern to assure even sealing. Tighten
within the flange faces. It is not necessary to
sufficiently to assure metal-to-metal contact
fully close the valve; the disc must be conbetween the flange face and the metal buttertained within the confines of the valve body

Operation
Demco butterfly valves should never be operated
without a handle or other means of controlling
the disc.
Caution: Failure to restrain the disc under
flow conditions can result in the disc
slamming closed and possible damaged or
broken parts.
2 thru 12 Demco butterfly valves have flats on
the upper stem. 14 and larger valves have a
single square key. Stem flats or the square key
indicate valve position. When they are in line
with the flow stream, the valve is open. When
perpendicular, the valve is closed.
Manually operated
Demco butterfly valves operate from fully open to
fully closed by a 90 turn of the handle. The
handle is marked with a flow arrow. When this
arrow is in line with the pipe axis, the valve is

Figure 11 Valve shown open

open (Figure 11). When perpendicular to the pipe,


the valve is closed (Figure 12).
Worm gear operated
Worn gear operators are recommended for valves
larger than 6 inches. Clockwise rotation of the
handwheel closes the butterfly valve. Counterclockwise rotation opens the valve. Gear operators
are always mounted with the input shaft perpendicular to the pipe axis for handwheel clearance.
Each operator has an arrow on the top of the gear,
which indicates the OPEN CLOSED position of
the valve (Figure 13).
Automated valves
Butterfly valves with their quarter turn operation
are easily adapted to automatic actuators for
remote operation. To prevent water hammer,
actuators should close the valve slower than 6 to 8
seconds, open-to-close. Rapid closure causes water
hammer which can break or otherwise damage
valve parts.

Cycle

AIR COOLED HEAT EXCHANGER


SUGGESTED START UP PROCEDURE

Before any start up procedure is begun, a thorough inspection of the Air Cooled
Exchanger should be made.
1.)

Be sure all bolted connections are properly tightened.

2.)

After tube bundle and piping hydrotest, remove hydrotest connections.


Be sure tube bundle is properly drained, and if required, dried. Connect
process piping and any auxiliary connections.

3.)

Inspect all process connection, as well as, vent drain, temperature and
pressure, or any other auxiliary connections to be sure they are plugged
or connected properly.

4.)

Check mechanical equipment before starting process through the tube


bundle(s).
a.)

Thoroughly check the plenum and fan drive area to be sure all
tools and construction materials are removed.

b.)

Rotate the fan by hand and check fan tip clearance and alignment
of belts and sheaves.

c.)

Check belt tension.

d.)

Check all fan drive bolts to be sure they are properly tightened.
This includes bearing bolts, fan and sheave bushing bolts, set
screws, motor bolts and fan blades attachment bolts.

e.)

If air operated auto-variable pitch fans are used, check for proper
pitch with the air off. Fans may go to either minimum or maximum
pitch at air failure. Check specifications for requirements. If fan
pitch is not satisfactory, set pitch per manufacturer's instructions
(see Operation and Maintenance Instructions). If fan pitch is
satisfactory, cycle fan through it's range, using plant air and an air
regulator.
Page 1

5.)

f.)

If air operated louvers are provided, it is advisable to disconnect


the air motor linkage and cycle the louvers by hand to assure
there is no binding or obstruction of the louvers blades. If binding
occurs, check to be sure louver frames are square. Attaching
bolts may have to be loosened and frames shifted to ease binding.
If louvers operate smoothly, reconnect air motor. Cycle the air
motor, using plant air and an air regulator.

g.)

If manually adjusted pitch fans are provided, check fan pitch and
re-pitch per manufacturer's instructions if required.

h.)

If manual operated louvers are provided, check for binding of the


blades, as in instruction (f). Operate louvers to be sure there is no
linkage obstruction or binding.

i.)

Remove condensate drain plugs, if provided, in electric motors


and other electrical components to drain any condensation that
might have occurred during storage. If space heaters are
furnished in electric motors, louver actuators, controls, etc.,
activate the space heaters and allow approximately 24 hours
before starting equipment.

j.)

After all the applicable steps previously stated are completed, the
mechanical equipment may be cycled.

k.)

Be sure all personnel and equipment are away from the fan and
fan drive area. For safety reasons, equipment guards should be
installed. Activate the drive motor and let it reach speed. Check
for vibration and excessive noise. If vibration or excessive noise
occurs, immediately shut motor down, and check for loose
connections or insufficient clearance between moving parts. If the
system is running smoothly, replace any guards removed and
move to the next drive and repeat above steps.

Start the process through the tube bundle(s). Open the inlet valves
slowly and let the process "Warm" the bundles slowly. This will allow the
components of the tube bundle to expand at the same rate and lessen the
thermal shock.

OPERATING AND MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS FOR ACE COOLERS


IMPORTANT
Before start up, check set screws and bolts in the fan assembly and set screws in
locking collars of all bearings and sheaves. These items should be checked
again several days after start up.
FAN & DRIVE
Although the fan and drive are inspected before shipment, clearance between
the fan blades and the fan ring and guard, and alignment of the fan shaft should
be checked to assure that rough handling during shipment has not loosened
bearing mounting bolts or caused misalignment.
V-belt drives should be adjusted until tight enough to prevent excessive belt
slippage. The belt is generally tight enough when it can be twisted one-quarter of
a turn with the thumb and fore-finger.
LUBRICATION
Bearings should be greased in accordance with normal maintenance practice.
Over-lubrication is the most common cause of bearing failure. In general, about
one cubic inch of grease in each bearing every 2 to 3 months is adequate. The
operating temperature of the bearing may indicate how much lubrication is
required.
Normal temperature may range from cool to warm to touch up to a point too
hot to touch for more than a few seconds depending on bearing size and speed,
and surrounding conditions. Unusually high temperature accompanied by
excessive leakage of grease indicates too much grease. High temperature with
no grease showing at the seals, particularly if the bearing seems noisy, usually
indicates too little grease. Normal temperature and slight showing of grease at
the seals indicates proper lubrication.
Page 1

TUBE CLEANING
Operating conditions sometimes cause an accumulation of dirt on the outside fin
surface. This can be removed by directing compressed air, or a greaseless
solvent followed by a water spray through the fins in a direction opposite the
normal air flow. The inside of the tubes will require periodic inspection and
cleaning as necessary. Removal of access plugs allows visual inspection, and if
necessary, the use of mechanical tube cleaners.
PLUG LEAKS
Should tapered plugs develop leaks, additional tightening is normally all that is
required. Thread dope may be used if tightening alone is not sufficient. If
shoulder type plugs develop leaks, the gaskets should be replaced. Tapered
plugs that are removed for the tube inspection or cleaning should be replaced in
the same hole.
TUBE LEAKS
Tube leaks can be of two types: (1) leaks in the tubewall itself (usually corrosion)
and (2) leaks in the tube to tubesheet joint. In the first case, it is usually most
practical to plug both ends of the tube with the resulting loss in heat transfer
surface. When so many tubes have been plugged that performance is affected,
retubing will be necessary. If leaks develop in the tube to tubesheet joints, rerolling of the tube will be required. Care must be used in selection of the proper
tube expander for the size and BWG of the tube being used. As with all rolled
tube joints, over-rolling must be avoided.
GENERAL
If it is ever necessary to contact our plant for service or replacement parts, it is
essential that our serial number or other identifying data be obtained from the
metal nameplate attached to the cooler. This is the only way to positively identify
the correct parts that may be required.

Multi-Wing Z Series Fans


Blade Pitch Angle Setting Instructions
Before You Begin:
To maintain balance of fan:
Mark the hub castings across a joint, so the fan hub can be reassembled in the same orientation.
Mark the location of any balancing weight. Balancing weight will be on the outer bolt circle, in the
form of washers, and/or longer bolts, or an additional balancing nut.
Number the blades and blade sockets, so that they are replaced into their original position.
If possible, note the location of the pitch setting pin in the blade socket when disassembling the fan, and
whether pin is located in the Hub or Retainer half of the fan (see step 7 for detailed definition).
Step 1 Determine Blade Type: 1Z, 2Z, 4Z, 5Z, or 6Z
If the blade has a sickle shape, then look for 1Z or 2Z molded on the blade.
If the blade is wider at the tip than at the base near the hub, then you have a 6Z.
Otherwise, look for 4Z or 5Z markings on blade which are in one of two places:
Look on cone section at base of blade (visible when fan is assembled), or
Look inside the bottom of the socket (blade must be removed from hub).
Alternatively, measure the width of the blade at the widest portion at base of blade:
4Z blade is approximately 4-1/2 inches, 5Z blade is approximately 5-1/4 inches.
Step 2 Determine Rotation Code: L or R
R rotation rotates clockwise facing air discharge, L rotation is counterclockwise facing air discharge.
The 1Z and 2Z blade profiles have an arrow showing rotation molded into the blade on inlet side.
The 6Z is universal and can be used as an R or L rotation, depending on how pitch angle is set.
For 4Z and 5Z blades, the rotation code is molded into the blade, either on the cone section at base of
blade, or inside bottom of the socket.
Examples of rotation for 4Z blades as viewed from end of socket are below, and 5Z is similar.
R, or clockwise

L, or counterclockwise

Multi-Wing America - Z Series Pitch Setting Instructions - Page 2 of 4

Step 3 Determine Boss location code: A or B


The boss is the center section of the hub through which the fan is mounted to the shaft, and typically
contains either setscrews or a center-tapered hole where the bushing inserts.
Select boss location A or B:
A is the boss on air inlet, including A, AR, and AS configurations.
B is the boss on air discharge, including B, BR, and BS.
See examples in drawing below.
For flange mounted (engine) fans, use boss location A for blower fans, and boss location B for suction
fans.

Step 4 Find Blade Pitch Angle:

20, 25, 27.5, 30, 32.5, 35, 37.5, 40, 45, or 50

The blade pitch angle can be found several ways:


First, by knowledge of the Multi-Wing fan part number.
The pitch angle precedes the blade material code in the part number. For example, the pitch angle is
30 degrees in this part number: 36/9-9/30/PPG/5ZR/ SH 1-3/8 /AS
Second, by careful disassembly with this method:

Disassemble fan on flat surface, and note in which groove the pin is
located. See number code in picture to the right.
Using pictures in step 7 on next page, determine if the pin was in the
hub (HUB) or retainer side (RET) of fan.
Using table in step 6 below, find the possible blade pitch.
Using table in step 5 below, select your blade angle based on whether
your pin was in the HUB or RET.

Third, by calling a sales engineer at Multi-Wing America for assistance in selecting a blade pitch angle
for your application.

Step 7 Final Assembly continued


For 3-piece hubset as below:

Top two pieces together are considered the HUB, and bottom piece is considered the RET or retainer ring.
Using the HUB or RET code found in Step 5:
If code is HUB, place the hub down on work surface first (one or two pieces, depending on above).
If code is RET, place one retainer ring only down on the work surface first.
A weighted coffee can could be used to elevate the fan from the work surface.
Using the Groove Number found in Step 6:
Using picture to right, place the locking pin in the groove number that you
found in Step 6 above.
Finally, Insert Blades:

Place the blade over the pin in the hub/retainer blade socket, so that the
pin also fits into the appropriate pitch angle groove in the blade. See
example picture to the right.
For 6Z fans, use the pitch angle groove in the blade marked with your
rotation (R or L) and pitch angle. Example: L35 is L rotation and 35degree pitch angle.

Repeat for all blades.

Assemble hubset together, aligning the match marks you made.

Replace any balancing weight to its original position.

To finish, tighten the bolts in a cross pattern to 5 to 6 foot-pounds of torque.

D-3153 Pneumatic Actuator

The D-3153 Pneumatic Actuator is a multipurpose


positioning device used primarily for operating
ventilating dampers in response to the output signals
of a pneumatic controller or electro-pneumatic
transducer.
The D-3153 can be used with dampers up to a
maximum area of 16 square feet for proportional
volume control and 25 square feet for two position
actuation provided that the torque requirements are
compatible with the specific application.
The D-3153 is UL component recognized for use on
UL classified 555/555S smoke and combination
fire/smoke dampers which have been tested and
approved to a degradation temperature of 250F
(121C).

A pplication

I nstallation

When used with proportional control, the damper size


is limited to 16 square feet maximum. As a 2-position
control, damper size is limited to 25 square feet.

Two standard mounting packages are available with


the D-3153 pneumatic piston actuator. The models
with universal mounting bracket assemblies provide all
of the parts and instructions required for applying the
actuator to Johnson Controls D-1300 damper
applications: duct (wall) mounting or frame mounting-either normally open or normally closed.

Three nominal spring ranges are available:


3-7 psi (D-3153-7), 5-10 psi (D-3153-3 and -6),
and 8-13 psi (D-3153-1, 2, 4, 5, and 18). The control
air pressure for normal HVAC operation is 0-20 psig.
The minimum control pressure for safety damper
functions is 20 psig with the maximum pressure of
30 psig. When used for both proportional and safety
applications, a separate air signal should be provided
to override normal HVAC operation and cause safety
damper functions.
The D-3153 incorporates several internal and external
features that add functional flexibility. A 2-way swivel
connection on the actuator cylinder head provides
non-binding movement. All actuators have a
telescoping piston rod for easy linkage of the damper
for attachment points up to 8-3/4 inches (222 mm)
away from the face of the actuator. A swivel ball joint
and slotted crank arm connector are furnished on all
actuators for optional methods of linkage to the damper.
The UL component recognized D-3153 actuator with
universal and auxiliary mounting brackets are
specifically designed for use with Johnson Controls
safety dampers up to 250F (121C).

peration
O
Air pressure from a pneumatic controller is applied to
the diaphragm of the actuator, which moves the piston
against the forces of the internal spring and the load.
The external load force shifts the operating range from
the nominal spring range. The piston will move to a
position where the applied force and the spring plus
external forces are in equilibrium. However, with a
pilot positioner added, the piston will move to a position
proportional to the control signal regardless of the load.

The auxiliary mounting bracket assembly facilitates


applying the D-3153 actuator to allied equipment
manufacturers products, and non-Johnson Controls
installations for actuator conversions. These
assemblies are furnished with a crank arm linkage and
pedestal style bracket. Two positions are provided on
the pivot post for attaching the actuator to the
mounting bracket so that force can be more directly
applied to linkage points that are neither perpendicular
nor parallel to the actuator mounting plane.
A stop screw kit is available for special applications to
limit the power stroke of the actuator when required.
A 4 foot (122 cm) linkage rod is also available for
special applications to reach extended linkage when
required.
Where precision sequential operation is desired, or
additional positioning power is necessary, a D-9502
positioner should be used. Up to four more D-3153
actuators may be slaved from one pilot for coupled
dampers. A D-9502 kit is also available to enable
2-stage actuator control for providing minimum outdoor
air during occupation (refer to D-9502 literature).
Refer to the appropriate D-3153 Installation Bulletin for
more details.

R epair Information
Field repairs must not be made. For a replacement
D-3153 body, contact the nearest Johnson Controls
representative.

REPLACING AND INSTALLING THE DVOA ASSEMBLY

When replacing/installing the old style DVO assembly with the new style (DVOA), tubing and fitting modifications are required. We suggest
removing the L1200NDVO/DVOR from the vessel. Relieve pressure from the vessel or use block valves before removing the L1200NDVO/DVOR.
Replacing and Installing the DVOA
Assembly For Models L1200NDVO &
L1200NDVOR

NOTE: Clean, dry instrument quality gas should be used.


Use of filters will improve service life and reliability.

Tools Needed: Strap or pipe wrench; 3/4 Hex wrench; 9/16 hex
wrench; needle nose pliers; tubing cutters and benders and the
appropriate tools for the fittings.
1.

Block off and bleed the instrument gas pressure supply to the
L1200NDVO.
2.
Remove the tubing between the L1200NDVO and the
separator dump valve, and remove the supply gas tubing
(regulator [-R] if used).
3.
Remove the L1200NDVO from the vessel (optional).
4.
If the L1200N was removed from the vessel, mount it in a
suitable vise on a work bench (if possible).
5.
Using the proper tools, disconnect the Inlet, Outlet and
Exhaust fittings from the existing DVO (see fig. 1). You will
re-connect these to the new DVOA in a later step.
NOTE: The following steps must be done with the DVO in the
upright position (on top of the L1200N).
6.
Remove the L1200N cover (this will aid with the alignment
of the new DVOA Valve Bushing). The use of a strap
wrench or a pipe wrench may be needed.
7.
Insert the new Valve Bushing through the new DVOA (see
fig. 2). The markings on top of the DVOA must be facing
up. This will be needed in step 9.
8.
With a 3/4 hex wrench loosen the existing DVO, valve
stem, and static seal (see fig. 3). Once the assembly is
loosened, VERY CAREFULLY use needle nose pliers to
hold the Valve Seat Assembly in place. Remove the existing
DVO making sure the Valve Seat Assembly inside the
L1200NDVO is aligned and straight (see fig. 4).

CAUTION: MAKE SURE the Valve Seat Assembly inside


the L1200N remains in place after removing the DVO.
Holding the Seat Assembly up with the needle nose pliers
inside the L1200NDVO body, place the tip of the new
DVOA valve bushing through the spring and into the hole in
the center of the valve seat, and tighten the valve bushing.
The Valve Seat Assembly should be able to move freely up
and down after the bushing has been tighten. The DVO red
button must face away from the vessel.
10.With the new DVOA aligned over the hex on the L1200NDVO
body, tighten the Valve Bushing using the 9/16 hex wrench.
You may need to hold the DVOA while tightening the Valve
Bushing to keep it from rotating (see fig. 5).
11.If the L1200N is in the vise, operate the float and inspect for
smooth and proper operation of the Valve Seat Assembly.
12.Replace the L1200NDVO cover (see fig. 6).
13.Using the appropriate tools re-install the Inlet, the Outlet and
the Exhaust fittings to the new DVOA (see fig. 5).
14 If the L1200N was removed from the vessel re-install it at this
time.
15.Modify existing or install new tubing to connect the Inlet, the
Outlet and Exhaust fittings.

3. Before installing the level
switch a suitable pipe thread sealant
is recommended. Screw the unit directly into the threaded
connection in the wall of the pressure vessel.
4. Be sure that the electrical connection is positioned at the
bottom. For L1200N the 1/8 NPT pneumatic connection
should be on top (the 1/4 NPT vent connection should be on
the bottom). See Pneumatic models section for further
instructions for the L1200N.
5. Make the electrical wiring connections according to
appropriate wiring diagrams for the alarm or shutdown
system to be used. The electrical connection is 1/2-14 NPT.
Electrical wiring and conduit should be installed by qualified
personnel according to the NEC.
6. BE SURE all electrical connections are insulated and the
cover is fully installed before reconnecting electrical power.
7. BE SURE all pressure connections are tight before
pressurizing the system.
Installation with a Weld

after gas passes through the final scrubber.
A suitable filter must be positioned before the L1200NDVO
to prevent liquids and/or particulates from entering the dump
valve operator.
NOTE: Check filter periodically for wear and tear and
elements that hamper the flow of the pneumatic signal.
2. All pressure connections must be tight and maintained tight
so as not to leak air/gas.
3. Valve seat adjustment can be made if air/gas begins to leak.
Care should be taken when adjusting as only slight movement
is necessary to stop the leakage; excessive force will bind the

TYPICAL INSTALLATION ON GAS COMPRESSORS

Basic Operation
As condensate rises in the scrubber, the float on
the L1200NDVOR rises and trips its pneumatic
valve. The valve opens allowing pressure to enter
the dump valve pilot chamber. Once the pressure
enters the pilot chamber it forces the diaphragm
and valve stem forward thus opening the valve seat
(valve open/closed indicator button pops out) and
releasing condensate through the valve stem and
out the drain. As the condensate level drops, the
L1200NDVOR pneumatic valve closes to shut off
the pressure to the dump valve causing it to close.
If for any reason the condensate continues to rise
beyond normal dump levels, model L1200
operates the alarm and/or shuts down
the equipment.
The L1200NDVOR Filter/Regulator and the
MURPHYGAGE help keep the control pressure
clean and dry. They also allow the operator to
adjust pressure to recommended levels.

Description
The DVU Series models are pneumatically controlled dump valves.
The valves open and close automatically by pneumatic control from a
Murphy L1200NDVOR or similar level controller and dump valve operator. Diaphragm actuated, the DVU series dump valves operate at 3070 psi
(207483 kPa) [2.074.83 bar] and up to 2000 psi (13.8 MPa) [138 bar]
vessel pressure (depending on the model).
A key benefit of this design is a hex union that provides the ability
to replace the seat without removing the valve from piping.

TYPICAL INSTALLATION ON GAS COMPRESSORS

Fig. 3
Scrubber/Separators
Basic Operation
As condensate rises in the scrubber, the float
on the L1200NDVOR rises and trips its pneumatic valve. The valve opens allowing pressure to enter the dump valve pilot chamber.
Once the pressure enters the pilot chamber it
forces the diaphragm and valve stem forward
thus opening the valve seat (valve open/closed
indicator button pops out) and releasing condensate through the valve stem and out the
drain. As the condensate level drops, the
L1200NDVOR pneumatic valve closes to shut
off the pressure to the dump valve causing it to
close.
If for any reason the condensate continues to
rise beyond normal dump levels, model L1200
operates the alarm and/or shuts down the
equipment.
The L1200NDVOR Filter/Regulator and the
MURPHYGAGE help keep the control pressure clean and dry. They also allow the operator to adjust pressure to recommended levels.

NOTE: Always use clean, dry,


instrument quality gas.

The Murphy Gas Compressor Scrubber Level System (SLS)


The system provides for liquid control in gas scrubber
applications, by dumping liquids to drain and protecting
compressors with a high liquid level switch. Wetted metal
parts are made to survive
constant use in corrosive
environments.
See Bulletin: SLS-04005B for
more details.

High Level Shutdown Switch

Replacing the Plug and Seat


1. Close the pressure block valves (suction & discharge valves) on the inlet
and outlet of the skid. Lock them closed if possible.
2. Open the blowdown valve to remove pressure from the unit. Lock the
blowdown valve open if possible.
3. After taking all possible precautions to insure there is no pressure in the
vessel. (If the condensate line is pressurized, it must also be blocked and
locked.) Open the manual drain valve so it bleeds into the vessel so it
can also be bled down. Disconnect the pneumatic input signal connection
after insuring it also has been de-pressurized.
4. Using a back-up wrench on the valve body, with a quick "breaking"
action loosen the union nut on the valve. There is a "weep" hole in the
nut. If at any time while loosening and taking off the nut pressure is
escaping through the "weep" hole, immediately stop loosening the nut.
Retighten the nut and check the preceding procedures to ensure the pressure is bled off the vessel. Never remove the assembly if pressure is
coming through the weep hole. See Figure 4 on page 2.
5. With the upper assembly removed from the vessel the plug and/or seat can
be replaced. Loosen the 9/16 jam nut on the maintenance bolt on top of
the diaphragm cover. Spin the nut up against the head of the bolt. Tighten
the bolt to extend the shaft and plug. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN.

6. Using a back-up wrench on the plug, remove the stem nut on the shaft
under the plug. Once the stem nut is broken loose, the 9/16 head maintenance bolt and top assembly will keep the stem from turning. The plug
turns freely on the stem once loose. The plug and seat can now be
removed. All soft seals should be replaced. Refer to kit part numbers
under service parts on page 4.

Replacing the Diaphragm


6A. If the diaphragm is to be replaced, all preceding steps have to be
done. Additionally, do the following:
6B. Loosen the 9/16 head maintenance bolt, allowing the diaphragm
spring to relax, and the stem to retract. Make alignment marks on
the top and bottom halves of the diaphragm assembly for alignment during re-assembly.
6C. Remove the 8, 7/16" bolts/nuts holding the diaphragm housing
together.
6D. Using a straight edge screwdriver, gently separate the 2 halves of
the diaphragm housing, and remove the top, or outside portion.
6E. Lift the diaphragm and support plates far enough for the 1-1/8" hex
or 1 round nut on the bottom of the diaphragm assembly to be
accessible to a wrench and not have the spring interfere. If it is
desired to replace the packing, pull the stem all the way out. The
packing can be easily removed using a small screwdriver to pry the
packing out. The new packing can be simply pressed in, making
sure the orientation of the packing installed is the same as the orientation of the packing removed. The packing is wider toward the
plug end. You will have to use the seat to hold the packing in place
when re-inserting the stem.
6F. With the 1-1/8" hex or 1 round nut held by a wrench, use a
wrench to loosen and remove the 1/2" nut on top of the diaphragm.
The diaphragm can now be removed and replaced.
6G. With the new diaphragm in place and the 1/2" nut tightened, place
the assembly, diaphragm down on a clean, smooth sturdy surface.
6H. Have the seat, plug, washers and stem nut handy (if any of these
parts are to be replaced, use the old parts for this procedure). Press
down evenly and smoothly on the bottom of the diaphragm assembly to cause stem to come up. Place the seat and plug in place.
Then push the bottom of the diaphragm assembly down far enough
to install the washers and stem nut on the stem. Tighten the stem
nut enough to hold against the diaphragm spring.
6J. Align the diaphragm holes to the bolt holes (bottom half of the
housing). Install the upper diaphragm housing using the alignment
marks from step 6B. Install the 8, 7/16" bolts and nuts. Tighten the
bolts evenly going from one bolt then 180 around to the next bolt,
then either 120or 240 around to the next bolt and so forth until
all 8 bolts are evenly tight.
6K. Using the 9/16 head maintenance bolt, tighten, pushing the stem
out until the 9/16"bolt stops DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN.
6L. Remove the stem nut holding the plug. (If old parts were used, prepare to install the new parts now.)

7. Install the seat and plug. Place the O-ring on the stem, followed by the
washer and stem nut.
8. Tighten the stem nut. Loosen the 9/16 head maintenance bolt by at least one
turn past the point where it is no longer in contact with the stem. Tighten the
9/16" jam nut holding the 9/16 head maintenance bolt.
9. Replace the crush washer and the O-ring hidden by the union nut.
NOTE: If pressure or fluid comes out the weep hole of the union nut,
either the O-ring under the union nut is leaking, or the packing could be
leaking through the internal weep hole above that O-ring.
10. The assembly is ready to be re-installed. Check for relative position of
the pneumatic input signal connections before tightening the union nut.

Storage
After valves are assembled and tested, they are
placed in the full open position, flange seal
surfaces and bores are greased and end protectors
are installed. This will provide adequate protection for indoor storage. Extended outdoor storage
requires periodic inspection and the addition of a
corrosion inhibitor. Contact your CCV representative for extended storage guidelines. Valves
should only be stored in the full open or full close
position to prevent seat distortion.

Installation
DynaSeal 310F ball valves may be installed in any
position with flow from either direction. However, for best service life there is a preferred
vertical or horizontal position to maximize sealing
and minimize the accumulation of sediment. In
the vertical position it is preferred to have the
upstream pressure from above so the weight of
the ball will assist the pressure in sealing. With the
run of the valve in a horizontal position, it is
preferred to have the stem lying horizontal (i.e.
toward the viewer) with pressure from the right.
During operation, flow will act as a siphon and
minimize retention of sediment.
When handling or installing a valve, keep the
valve in the full open position whenever possible
to prevent foreign object damage to the ball.

Description
Maximum operating pressure
Maximum working pressure
Maximum temperature
Date of manufacture

Flanged-End valves may be bolted into the line


using two open or boxed end wrenches.
1. Threads of flange bolts and nuts should be
lubricated to obtain maximum loading of bolts.
2. Finger tighten all nuts first.
3. When tightening bolts, use the crisscross
method and torque each bolt to ANSI or gasket
manufacturer specification.
Field testing, if performed after the valve has
been properly installed into the line, should be
done in accordance with the following procedure:
Caution: Ensure that all test fluids contain
corrosion inhibitors and are compatible with
valve seat and seal material.
1. Preliminary Testing - Completely flush the
system or the line to minimize damage to the
seats and ball surface which might be caused by
weld slag or other foreign matter resulting
from installation procedures.
2. Line Testing - When performing this test, the
valve should be in the half-open position to
ensure that the body cavity is completely filled
with the test media and to prevent accidental
over pressure of the seats. NOTE: Line may be
tested at a maximum of 1-1/2 times the valve's
cold working pressure rating without consulting
the factory.
3. Seat Testing - When testing the seats with the

valve in the closed position, do not exceed the


valve's cold working pressure rating.
4. Upon completion of testing, purge all test fluids
from the valve.

Operation
DynaSeal 310F ball valves operate from fully open
to fully close by a 90-degree turn of the handle.
The handle aligned with the pipe always means
the valve is open and with the handle perpendicular to the pipe means the valve is closed. Additionally, the stems have flats that align the handle and
can be used to indicate ball position. The bore of
the ball is parallel with the faces of the stem flats.
DynaSeal 310F valves may be power actuated.
Pneumatic and hydraulic actuators, whether of the
fail-open, fail-close, or fail-last position type, have
"Open-Close" indicators on the top of each unit.
On a pneumatic actuator, make sure filters and
lubricators (if recommended by the actuator
manufacturer) are installed prior to valve and
actuator installation. Should any maintenance be
necessary, obtain the part number from the unit's
nameplate and contact Cooper Cameron Valves or
the nearest representative.

Routine Maintenance
Due to its design and simplicity the 310F ball
valve requires very little maintenance. It's nonlubricated, self-cleaning ball can provide reliable,
leak-free performance over a long period of time.
The only preventative maintenance recommended is to periodically inspect the valve for
leaks around the stem or actuator. Should a leak
be noticed, the following procedure is for adjusting the packing.
Stem Packing Adjustment 1. With an Allen wrench, snug up each of the two
packing adjustment screws in a clockwise
direction.
2. Snug up each screw an equal amount only as
much as required to stop the leak, not to
exceed the maximum specified in the following table.
3. The following table gives torque values that
will seal stem packing in good condition.
Torque values above this indicate seals are
worn and need replacement and excessive
tightening will also cause an unacceptable
increase in valve stem torque.

Some misalignment is usually present due
to errors in concentricity of pipe threads,
weld distortion in couplings, etc. Dont
make it worse!

DO Make up unions tight. Use at least an 18 wrench. Union is designed to crush solid metal along a high ridge, creating a line
seal between the taper and the flat surfaces.
Union will seal pressure without need for O-ring if alignment is good enough and if the installation torque has been efficiently transmitted into tightening the joint.
However, if there is significant misalignment in the piping arrangement then some of the umpf
experienced during make-up has been diverted into deflecting the piping. This causes resistance to further
turning of the nut and may leave insufficient tightness in the metal to metal seat of the union for sealing.
In this case the O-ring will finish the job. The joint needs to be tight enough (close enough) to close the
extrusion gap for O-ring to maintain its seal.

1.5 TAPER (Union Nut


omitted for clarity)

More severe MISALIGNMENT can lead to leaks at the union or broken pipe nipples or broken
tailpieces. If you are experiencing these difficulties ask for Inferno SPHERICAL UNIONS available as a separate male x male union or built into the valve itself.

DO Make up unions using a BACK-UP WRENCH on the valve body.


Failure to use back-up wrench causes excessive stress on the connecting nipple and can lead to
breakage of nipple or harmful twisting to sight glass.

BACK-UP WRENCH POINTS

OPERATION
BALL CHECKS...
Open valves full open during operation to assure safety action of ball check in case of glass or gasket failure. Stem must be open
more than 1-1/2 turns before ball is allowed to back seat. Extension on end of stem will deny ball a seating position until valve is
opened sufficiently. At this point the extension of the stem retreats enough to allow ball to check
closed in event of sudden loss of pressure in the sight glass.
Ball checks are designed to limit flow from vessel in case of accidental glass or gasket failure. They can
be of great help in limiting the blow-out effect of pressure acting on a shattered glass. But they are not
intended to provide a perfect seal. Dirt, trash and corrosion in the ball check cavity and back seat area
will limit the tightness of the emergency shut-off. In such cases there may be some degree of leakage past the ball checks.
Ball check will not activate in case of seepage caused by a leaky gasket. Ball check may not activate at all if cavity is packed with

Ball checks contd...


corrosion. Ball check requires pressure in the vessel to activate. About 7 head of water is sufficient pressure to check the ball in
water service with a full flow leak. More pressure is required to check with a choked off leak. Performance in other fluids will vary. Ball
check may not activate in extremely viscous fluids.
If in doubt as to whether ball checks are present in an existing installation or whether or not they are working properly you can test
as follows: Close off the upper gage valve. Leave the lower valve open. Open a drain valve rapidly and listen for the ball to make an
audible click. Now repeat process reversing the upper and lower valve position.
Restore fluid level in sight glass by closing drain and then moving both valves into the cracked open position. Cracking the valves
open will cause the stem extension to unseat the ball and allow it to drop back into its normal resting place.
If sight glass fails and balls are activated then manually close both valves. Be aware that a small amount of fluid will escape as the
balls are dislodged and before stem has a chance to fully close. Take necessary precaution.
BLOW-DOWN... DONT blow down sight glass with valves open. High velocity flow will cut seat and lead to failure of valve to close
without leakage. This problem is especially common in steam and hot water applications. However if it is not convenient to blow-down
the hot water sight glass with valves in the closed position then DO install a second valve (ball or gate) to insure that a tight
shut-off can be made for maintenance purposes during normal plant operation. A double block system may be required if you experience cutting in the seat area.
Shut off upper and lower valves first, then blow down sight glass through the lower valves drain connection, or through an additional
outlet at the bottom of the sight glass. Restore fluid level in sight glass by closing vent and drain and then cracking open the upper
and lower valves. Cracking the valves open prevents nuisance ball checking. After level has been reestablished open the valves full
open. In the full open position the ball is able to check autmatically in case of glass failure. In cracked position it will not check.
SHUTDOWNS... It is usually best to leave valves in normal full open position as the system is de-pressurized. This prevents excessive
thermal stress on the sight glass and valves and prevents trapping high pressure fluid. During START-UP pressure and temperature
are allowed to equalize slowly in the sight glass.

Spherical Union- Corrects for angular misalignment in piping.. reduces all piping strain.Re-usable
joint seals gas-tight multiple times.
Best when used with Close Hook-up (CH) level gages having side or back outlets. Position the
spherical union between the side or back outlets of the CH level gage and the gage valve. If
C-C does not match, rotate the vessel connection of the valves until the ball will fit into socket. By allowing the valves to rotate non-parallel to each other the spherical union will correct a
relatively large C-C difference between assembly and vessel. Purpose of spherical joint between
gage and valve is to eliminate piping strain.
May also be used with CH level gage without valves for direct connection to vessel or piping
Should be used in conjunction with a plain, flat, Floating Union in a matched set. In this
way angular misalignment and C-C difference may be overcome.

REASSEMBLY
NOTE: Each Series 7100 Piston Check Valve
requires three (3) gaskets of three (3) different
sizes.
.1

Place seat gasket in body recess, and install seat


on top of gasket.
IMPORTANT: Seat must be oriented with 45
degree beveled surface facing upward.

Following reassembly of plug, place in upright


position for inspection of orifice plug and ball check.
All valves have one (1) orifice plug installed in top of
valve plug, but number of ball checks varies with
valve size as follows:
Valve Size

.2

Place plug guide on work surface in inverted


position (deep recess facing upward).

.3

Install plug seal in deep recess in guide.


Orientation of seal must be so that open side of
seal, with spring visible, faces upper end of
guide. Thus, with guide in inverted position,
only the TFE jacket will be visible after seal is
installed.

.4

Place valve plug on work surface in normal


upright position. Place valve cage over plug
with extended shoulder on cage oriented toward
top of plug.

.5

Turn guide over to its normal position and slip


over top of plug.
NOTE: Due to seal ring being squeezed
between guide and plug, it may be necessary to
gently tap guide into place.

bonnet.
This completes valve reassembly.
3.0 PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE
.1

SEAT: Check seat every six (6) months if in


normal service, i.e., no sand or abrasives and low
pressure drop. If in severe service, i.e., highpressure drop and sanding condition, check every
sixty (60) days.

.2

PISTON: Same as .1.

.3

GENERAL: When disassembling any portion of


valve, always check seal rings and gaskets for
damage or wear before reassembly.

.4

BODY: Under normal conditions, body should


last years. However, under severe conditions,
i.e., corrosion, sand and high-pressure drop,
valve life could be numbered in days only.

.11 CAUTION: Tighten the bonnet-to-body bolts to


the recommended torques given in the following
table (Follow good bolting practice and lubricate
bolts).
The Bonnet Bolt Torque Chart below shows stud
size in inches and recommended torque value in
FT-LBS for valve sizes and pressures classes, as
listed.
NOTE:

REPLACING AND INSTALLING THE DVOA ASSEMBLY

When replacing/installing the old style DVO assembly with the new style (DVOA), tubing and fitting modifications are required. We suggest
removing the L1200NDVO/DVOR from the vessel. Relieve pressure from the vessel or use block valves before removing the L1200NDVO/DVOR.
Replacing and Installing the DVOA
Assembly For Models L1200NDVO &
L1200NDVOR

NOTE: Clean, dry instrument quality gas should be used.


Use of filters will improve service life and reliability.

Tools Needed: Strap or pipe wrench; 3/4 Hex wrench; 9/16 hex
wrench; needle nose pliers; tubing cutters and benders and the
appropriate tools for the fittings.
1.

Block off and bleed the instrument gas pressure supply to the
L1200NDVO.
2.
Remove the tubing between the L1200NDVO and the
separator dump valve, and remove the supply gas tubing
(regulator [-R] if used).
3.
Remove the L1200NDVO from the vessel (optional).
4.
If the L1200N was removed from the vessel, mount it in a
suitable vise on a work bench (if possible).
5.
Using the proper tools, disconnect the Inlet, Outlet and
Exhaust fittings from the existing DVO (see fig. 1). You will
re-connect these to the new DVOA in a later step.
NOTE: The following steps must be done with the DVO in the
upright position (on top of the L1200N).
6.
Remove the L1200N cover (this will aid with the alignment
of the new DVOA Valve Bushing). The use of a strap
wrench or a pipe wrench may be needed.
7.
Insert the new Valve Bushing through the new DVOA (see
fig. 2). The markings on top of the DVOA must be facing
up. This will be needed in step 9.
8.
With a 3/4 hex wrench loosen the existing DVO, valve
stem, and static seal (see fig. 3). Once the assembly is
loosened, VERY CAREFULLY use needle nose pliers to
hold the Valve Seat Assembly in place. Remove the existing
DVO making sure the Valve Seat Assembly inside the
L1200NDVO is aligned and straight (see fig. 4).

CAUTION: MAKE SURE the Valve Seat Assembly inside


the L1200N remains in place after removing the DVO.
Holding the Seat Assembly up with the needle nose pliers
inside the L1200NDVO body, place the tip of the new
DVOA valve bushing through the spring and into the hole in
the center of the valve seat, and tighten the valve bushing.
The Valve Seat Assembly should be able to move freely up
and down after the bushing has been tighten. The DVO red
button must face away from the vessel.
10.With the new DVOA aligned over the hex on the L1200NDVO
body, tighten the Valve Bushing using the 9/16 hex wrench.
You may need to hold the DVOA while tightening the Valve
Bushing to keep it from rotating (see fig. 5).
11.If the L1200N is in the vise, operate the float and inspect for
smooth and proper operation of the Valve Seat Assembly.
12.Replace the L1200NDVO cover (see fig. 6).
13.Using the appropriate tools re-install the Inlet, the Outlet and
the Exhaust fittings to the new DVOA (see fig. 5).
14 If the L1200N was removed from the vessel re-install it at this
time.
15.Modify existing or install new tubing to connect the Inlet, the
Outlet and Exhaust fittings.

4. Be sure that the electrical connection is positioned at the
bottom. For L1200N the 1/8 NPT pneumatic connection
should be on top (the 1/4 NPT vent connection should be on
the bottom). See Pneumatic models section for further
instructions for the L1200N.
5. Make the electrical wiring connections according to
appropriate wiring diagrams for the alarm or shutdown
system to be used. The electrical connection is 1/2-14 NPT.
Electrical wiring and conduit should be installed by qualified
personnel according to the NEC.
6. BE SURE all electrical connections are insulated and the
cover is fully installed before reconnecting electrical power.
7. BE SURE all pressure connections are tight before
pressurizing the system.

NOTE: Check filter periodically for wear and tear and
elements that hamper the flow of the pneumatic signal.
2. All pressure connections must be tight and maintained tight
so as not to leak air/gas.
3. Valve seat adjustment can be made if air/gas begins to leak.
Care should be taken when adjusting as only slight movement
is necessary to stop the leakage; excessive force will bind the

TYPICAL INSTALLATION ON GAS COMPRESSORS

Basic Operation
As condensate rises in the scrubber, the float on
the L1200NDVOR rises and trips its pneumatic
valve. The valve opens allowing pressure to enter
the dump valve pilot chamber. Once the pressure
enters the pilot chamber it forces the diaphragm
and valve stem forward thus opening the valve seat
(valve open/closed indicator button pops out) and
releasing condensate through the valve stem and
out the drain. As the condensate level drops, the
L1200NDVOR pneumatic valve closes to shut off
the pressure to the dump valve causing it to close.
If for any reason the condensate continues to rise
beyond normal dump levels, model L1200
operates the alarm and/or shuts down
the equipment.
The L1200NDVOR Filter/Regulator and the
MURPHYGAGE help keep the control pressure
clean and dry. They also allow the operator to
adjust pressure to recommended levels.

Description
The Murphy shock and vibration switches are available in a variety of
models for applications on machinery or equipment where excessive
vibration or shock can damage the equipment or otherwise poses a
threat to safe operation. A set of contacts is held in a latched position
through a mechanical latch and magnet mechanism. As the level of
vibration or shock increases an inertia mass exerts force against the
latch arm and forces it away from the magnetic latch causing the latch
arm to operate the contacts. Sensitivity is obtained by adjusting the
amount of the air gap between the magnet and the latch arm plate.
Applications include all types of rotating or reciprocating machinery
such as cooling fans, engines, pumps, compressors, pump jacks, etc.

INSTALLATION
WARNING: STOP THE MACHINE AND DISCONNECT ALL
ELECTRICAL POWER BEFORE BEGINNING INSTALLATION.

The VS2 and VS94 series shock switches are sensitive to shock and
vibration in all three planes of motion - up/down, front/back and side/side.
Front/back is the most sensitive (The reset pushbutton is located on the
front of the unit). For maximum sensitivity mount the unit so that the
front faces into the direction of rotation of the machine. (See Dimensions on
page 2 for sensitivity adjustment location).
The VS2 and VS94 Series must be firmly attached/mounted to the machine
so that all mounting surfaces are in rigid contact with the mounting surface
of the machine. For best results, mount the instrument in-line with the
direction of rotating shafts and/or near bearings. In other words, the reset
push button should be mounted pointing into the direction of shaft rotation
(see page 5). It may be necessary to provide a mounting plate or bracket to
attach the VS2 and VS94 Series to the machine. The mounting bracket
should be thick enough to prevent induced acceleration/vibration upon the
VS2 or VS94 Series. Typically 1/2 in. (13mm) thick plate is sufficient. See
illustrations on page 5 for typical mounting locations.
CAUTION: A dust boot is provided on the reset pushbutton
for all series to prevent moisture or dust intrusion. The sensitivity
adjustment for model VS2EX is not sealed; therefore, mounting

orientation should be on a horizontal plane or with the sensitivity adjustment


pointing down. Sensitivity adjustment for model VS2 is covered by a plug.
The plug must be in place and tight to prevent moisture or dust intrusion.

C-Clamp Installation (VS2C model only)


A C-Clamp is supplied with the VS2C model only.
The C-Clamp is shipped installed on the VS2C
but must be installed on the VS2EX and
VS2EXR switches.
1. The C-Clamp (B) will already be installed on
a 1/4 in. (6 mm) thick steel mounting plate
(A). Bolt the VS2 switch to the mounting
A
plate as illustrated with four 5/16 in.
B
bolts, nuts, and washers.
2. The mounting location should provide
convenient access to the TATTLETALE
push button (C).
3. The hardened set screw and nuts (D) are used to
tighten the switch to an I-Beam or cross member such as a
Sampson post of an oilwell pumpjack.

INSTALLATION Continued

All Models
WARNING: STOP THE MACHINE AND DISCONNECT ALL
ELECTRICAL POWER BEFORE BEGINNING INSTALLATION.

1. Firmly secure the unit to the equipment using the base foot mount or
C-Clamp if applicable. See C-Clamp Installation page 3.
For oilwell pumpjacks attach the VS2 and VS94 Series to the Sampson
post or walking beam. See Typical Mounting Locations page 5.
2. Make the necessary electrical connections to the vibration switch. See
Internal Switches, page 6 for electrical terminal locations and page 7 for
typical wiring diagrams. DO NOT EXCEED VOLTAGE OR CURRENT
RATINGS OF THE CONTACTS. Follow appropriate electrical
codes/methods when making electrical connections. Be sure that the run of
electrical cable is secured to the machine and is well insulated from
electrical shorting. Use of conduit is recommended.
NOTE: If the electrical cable crosses a pivot point such as at the pivot of
the walking beam, be sure to allow enough slack in the cable so that no
stress is placed on the cable when the beam moves.
If conduit is not used for the entire length of wiring, conduit should be
used from the electrical supply box to a height above ground level that
prevents damage to the exposed cable from the elements, rodents, etc. or
as otherwise required by applicable electrical codes. If conduit is not
attached directly to the VS2 and VS94 Series switch, use a strain relief
bushing and a weatherproof cap on the exposed end of the conduit. A
drip loop should be provided in the cable to prevent moisture from
draining down the cable into the conduit should the weathercap fail.

allow the machine to stop. Turn the sensitivity adjustment 1/4 turn
clockwise, (adjustment for VS94 and VS2EXRB models is located within
the box, see DETAIL B).
WARNING: MAKE THE AREA NON-HAZARDOUS BEFORE
OPENING THE EXPLOSION-PROOF (-EX) ENCLOSURES.

Depress the reset button and restart the machine. Repeat this process until
the unit does not trip on start-up.
DETAIL B
5. If the instrument does NOT trip on startup, stop the machine. Turn the sensitivity
adjustment 1/4 turn counter-clockwise.
Repeat the start-up/stop process until the
instrument trips on start-up. Turn the
sensitivity adjustment 1/4 turn clockwise
(less sensitive). Restart the machine to
verify that the instrument will not trip on
start-up.

THE ENCLOSURE. IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO HAVE A


QUALIFIED PERSON PERFORM ADJUSTMENTS, AND MAKE
SURE IT CONFORMS WITH NEC AND LOCAL CODES. DO
NOT ADJUST SENSITIVITY WHILE THE MACHINE IS RUNNING. STAND
CLEAR OF THE MACHINE AT ALL TIMES WHEN IT IS OPERATING.

All models of the VS2 and VS94 Series cover a wide range of sensitivity.
Each model is adjusted to the specific piece of machinery on which it is
installed. After the switch has been installed in a satisfactory location (see
page 5) the sensitivity adjustment will be increased or decreased so that the
switch does not trip during start-up or under normal operating conditions.
This is typically done as follows:
1. REPLACE ALL COVERS, LIDS, AND
ELECTRICAL ENCLOSURES.
2. Press the reset push button to engage the magnetic latch. To be sure the
magnetic latch has engaged, observe latch
DETAIL A
through the window on the VS2 and
VS2C (see DETAIL A). On the
Reset Push button
VS2EX, VS94 series the reset button
will remain depressed meaning the
magnetic latch has engaged.
3. Start the machine.
4. If the instrument trips on start-up,

6. Verify that the unit will trip when abnormal shock/vibration exists.

VS94 Time Delay Adjustment


1. Apply power to the time delay circuit. (see
page 7 for time delay circuit). The time delay function will be initiated.
2. Time the length of the delay with a watch. Let time delay expire. After it
expires, the override circuit will de-energize the solenoid, allowing the latch
arm to trip. A clicking noise is heard.

1.0 TYPE OF SYSTEM


1.1 The control system for this project is one FWMurphy Centurion Configurable Controller with
custom firmware installed. This system is designed for use in Class I, Division 2 hazardous
areas, powered by user supplied 24VDC. The controller will monitor various analog and
switch inputs and shutdown the motor/compressor package as noted in this document. The
controller will interface with an Ajax Engine Driven Integral Reciprocating compressor.
1.2 GENERAL OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1.2.1

Upon powerup, the display will first show the default home page as configured
using Mconfig Pro software. To navigate the display, use the UP, DOWN,
RIGHT, and LEFT arrow keys. To start the unit in local mode, press the
RUN/STOP key to start and stop the start sequence. Pressing the RESET key will
reset any fault shutdowns.

1.2.2

From any main page, the HOME key can be used to return to the default home
page.

1.2.3

Timers will be shown on the 2 to the bottom of the display. The panel state
message will be displayed across the bottom of the display.

1.2.4

The Class B1, B2, and S timers can be reset, or zeroed by pressing the RESET,
or TIMER 0 (Zero) key. The test mode can be initiated by pressing the TEST
key.

nd

1.3 SETPOINTS
1.3.1

To edit setpoints within the controller, press the SETUP/ENTER key. The
appropriate numeric password must be entered to make changes to setpoints.
No password is necessary to view setpoints.

1.3.2

The Centurion uses a different approach to enter values than previous Murphy
controllers. Instead of holding in the arrow keys until the desired number is
displayed, the Centurion display allows individual editing of each position of the
desired number. This is accomplished by entering the Edit Mode and using the
UP/DOWN arrow keys (1) to adjust the number above the blinking cursor (2)
between 0 and 9. To edit another position, simply use the LEFT/RIGHT (3) arrow
keys to move the cursor to that position (4) and repeat the edit process until the
desired number is displayed. In this way, values are built rather than scrolled
through.

1.3.3

Some digits may not be allowed to increment if it would result in exceeding range
limits. Values which can be positive or negative will have a sign () to the left of
the number. To change the sign value simply move the cursor to the sign using
the LEFT arrow key and toggle between + and using the U and DOWN arrow
keys. If the range of the value will exceed range limits the sign may not be
allowed to change. In this case, try reducing the number by decrementing the left
most digit by one or more and attempt to change the sign again.

1.3.4

In some instances, a word rather than a value is represented in the Edit Mode.
This works like the sign value as an ON/OFF or YES/NO prompt where the value
is toggled between choices using the UP/DOWN arrow keys. The value is not
active in the controller until the ENTER key has been pressed to send the value
to the controller. Pressing the ESC key will discard any changes and keep the
original value prior to entering the Edit Mode.

2.0 STARTING SEQUENCE


2.1 When power is first applied, and if no class A or ESD shutdown conditions exist, the controller
will be in the MANUAL STOP state.
2.2 This panel is equipped with custom programming to control a nitrogen purge valve. A panel
mounted On-Off-Auto switch will control how this cycle works.
2.2.1

OFF-the nitrogen purge valve will not operate, and will remain closed. The max
purge timer is reset.

2.2.2

HAND- If the panel is in the MANUAL STOP or SHUTDOWN states, the nitrogen
purge valve will be immediately opened. It will remain open until switched back to
OFF, or unit the max nitrogen purge time delay expires (SETPOINT #49). During
this time, the RUN/STOP key will be ignored and no starting will be allowed. If
the panel is not in MANUAL STOP or SHUTDOWN states, the purge valve will
remain closed.

2.2.3

AUTO- If the panel has detected an ESD event type shutdown, the nitrogen purge
valve will be immediately opened. It will remain open until the RESET key is
pressed, or unit the max nitrogen purge time delay expires (SETPOINT #49).

2.3 The Sleep Control output will energize to latch power onto the control system. An external
programmable timer is used to break power from the system in the event of a shutdown after
a set time delay. NOTE: the programmable timer should be set longer than the MAX
PURGE TIME SETPOINT to ensure that the Nitrogen Purge cycle will complete before
losing power.
2.4 The Ignition and M5081-C-LS Fuel outputs will remain deenergized.
2.5 When the RUN/STOP key is pressed, the following start sequence will occur:
2.5.1

The state message will read WAITING ON START.

2.5.2

The Ignition G-Lead Output will energize to Un-ground the Ignition.

1.1.1

The M5081-C-LS Fuel Valve output will energize to allow the fuel valve to be
manually opened.

1.1.2

The controller will monitor for a run signal from the MPU input. Confirmation
must be received before the Waiting ON Start Timer expires otherwise the unit
will shutdown on FAILURE TO START ENGINE.

1.1.3

When the Engine RPM is seen above the Run RPM setting, the unit will be
considered running and the Running sequence will begin.

3.0 RUNNING SEQUENCE


3.1 The controller will read RUNNING.
3.2 The internal hourmeter will begin timing. The class B1, B2, and S lockout delays begin timing.
3.3 The RPM vs Suction pressure control loop is enabled.
3.4 The RPM vs Suction pressure is controlled by suction pressure. If the suction pressure drops
below the setpoint, the speed output to the engine decreases and vice-versa.
3.5 TEST MODE

Page 3 of 15

3.5.1

While the unit is running, a test mode feature will be available. When the TEST
key on the Centurion display is pressed, all functions identified as Class A, B1,
B2, or C shutdowns will be able to be tested without shutting down the Unit for the
duration of the Test timer. The test mode can be ended by pressing the TIMER
0 key.

3.5.2

The tested points can be seen on the EVENTS page of the Mview display.

3.5.3

Some functions are designated as Class ESD, which will not be in the TEST
mode. An example is Panel ESD. It is never locked out.

3.5.4

All shutdowns must be clear, and the reset key must be pressed before the test
timer expires, or prior to exiting the test mode or else a shutdown will occur.
(note: this will also reset and restart the B1, B2 and S lockout timers)

4.0 NORMAL STOP SEQUENCE


4.1 Pressing the RUN/STOP key on the Centurion faceplate for 2 seconds and releasing will
signal a normal stop.
4.2 The controller will read STOPPING.
4.3 The M5081-C-LS Fuel Valve output will de-energize to close the fuel valve.
4.4 After the Ignition Off delay expires, the Ignition output will de-energize to ground the Ignition.
During this time, the state message will read STOPPING.
4.5 The unit state will return to MANUAL STOP and await the next start sequence.
5.0 FAULT SHUTDOWN SEQUENCE
5.1 The Class B1, B2, C and S shutdowns are disarmed.
5.2 The M5081-C-LS Fuel Valve output will de-energize to close the fuel valve.
5.3 After the Ignition Off delay expires, the Ignition output will de-energize to ground the Ignition.
During this time, the state message will read STOPPING. In cases of ESD type faults, this
delay is skipped.
5.4 The unit state will read to SHUTDOWN.
5.5 The cause of the shutdown will be displayed on the shutdown history page. Use the LEFT
and RIGHT arrow keys to navigate to this page. The shutdown event is stored in the
Shutdown History Page with an hourmeter time stamp. After the shutdown condition is
corrected, press the RESET key to clear the shutdown condition and return to PANEL
READY.
5.6 The Sleep Control output will deenergize upon a fault shutdown. An external programmable
time delay will remove power from the control system after a configured time. To restore
power to the system, Press and hold the Power Up From Sleep panel mounted pushbutton
for 3 seconds.

The Centurion uses MODBUS RTU protocol. Data is formatted as 16 bit Signed Holding Registers except
where noted. Port 1 is configurable for either 3 wire RS-232 or 2 wire RS-485 communication. Analog
Reading and Setpoints will be shown with no decimal place. Reference the Mconfig Pro Report or Mview
Display to determine the proper number of decimals places. Refer to the Mconfig Pro Report for event
enumerations, and engine state enumerations.

1 Overview
The Centurion configurable controller is a display and controller combination expressly
designed to meet the requirements of three specific kinds of applications:

Screw Compressors

Reciprocating Compressors

Pumps

The heart of the Centurion system is the main input/output (I/O) module or controller, which
can be mounted on a standard DIN rail. While it is designed to work with any Modbus (Master)
compliant HMI (Human Machine Interface) or with no operator interface at all, it is optimally
configured and field-configurable through MConfigPro, powerful software developed to
configure the controller. Parameters can be modified in the field without special need for laptop
or software by utilizing Murphys specially programmed controller display.
The controller is designed to monitor, control, protect, and optimize small to medium sized gas
operated compressors and pumps in the field. Proper operation is maintained by monitoring
set points and digital, analog, and thermocouple input points and providing the logic to take
corrective and/or proactive steps.
The controller also allows for controlled shut down and no-flow monitoring as well as auto start
up, and engine control capabilities.
The controller provides real-time data via communications ports to a connected display and/or
supervisory system. This advanced system offers multiple options for remote communications
and operation. The industry standard RTU Modbus protocol means greater support for a wide
variety of communication equipment including radio and satellite communications systems.

5.1.2 Display Context


The graphic LCD displays are organized around operating status screens and setup screens.
The actual number of status screens will be related to the total number of end devices
configured for the controller. In either screen set, ten (10) lines are visible at a time; with up
and down arrow characters indicating more lines are available on the page. Also, for both
screen sets, navigation between screens is accomplished by pressing the left or right arrow
keys.

5.1.3 Numeric Entry


The Centurion display allows individual editing of each position of the desired number. This is
accomplished by entering the edit mode and using the UP/DOWN arrow keys (1) to adjust the
number above the blinking cursor (2) between 0 and 9. To edit another position, simply use the
LEFT/RIGHT (3) arrow keys to move the cursor to that position (4) and repeat the edit process
until the desired number is displayed.

In this way, values are built rather than scrolled through. Some digits may not be allowed to
increase if it would result in exceeding range limits. Values which can be positive or negative
will have a sign () to the left of the number. To change the sign value simply move the cursor
to the sign using the LEFT arrow key and toggle between + and using the UP and DOWN
arrow keys. If the range of the value will exceed range limits the sign may not be allowed to
Section 50
10-10-06

00-02-0590
- 20 -

change. In this case, try reducing the number by decreasing the left most digit by one or more
and attempt to change the sign again.
In some instances, a word rather than a value is represented in the Edit Mode. This works like
the sign value as an ON/OFF or YES/NO prompt where the value is toggled between choices
using the UP/DOWN arrow keys. The value is not active in the controller until the ENTER key
has been pressed to send the value to the controller. Pressing the ESC key will discard any
changes and keep the original value prior to entering the Edit Mode.

5.2 Operational Screens


In addition to the set up screens reviewed in the Setup Screens and Menus section, the
display offers a number of operational displays. On the Operating Status screens, the two
bottom lines display the state, hours, mode and active timer status. This information is key to
understanding the status of the controller.
Mode refers to the Operating Mode of the controller and can be LOCAL or REMOTE.
Depending on the configuration active in the controller, the operation may differ depending on
what Mode the controller is currently displaying.
NOTE: The Mode can be changed by pressing certain keys, if the
configuration allows for REMOTE mode.
Pressing RESET or RUN/STOP is a Local function and will change the
Mode to Local if it is in REMOTE.
Pressing Fn before pressing RESET or RUN/STOP is a REMOTE function
and will change the Mode to REMOTE if it is in LOCAL.

5.2.1 Default Operating Screen


After turning on the power, the user will view the Murphy logo screen for three seconds before
the next screen displays, which is a software-configured default operating screen. The
MConfigPro software allows users to configure up to five screens with controller I/O groupings.
Possible custom screen types that may have been configured as a default operating screen, or
which may be also displayed, include:
a) Custom Line by Line allows process data to be displayed in a list format with
description and value.
b) Custom Gage allows user to display four (4) most important pieces of data on a 2 x 2
table in larger font.
c) Custom PID up to 4 PID screens.
For more information on configuring the optional screens through the MConfigPro software,
please refer to the MConfigPro Installation and Operations Manual.

displayed on this screen, with the most recent
at the top of the list and the oldest at the
bottom.
Each event is displayed with the shutdown
label on one line and the hour meter reading
on the following line. Pressing the up/down
arrows will scroll up/down one shutdown at a
time rather than one line at a time.
The 1/3 at the right end of the top line
means the user is viewing shutdown one of a
total of three stored. The newest shutdown
will always be number one and it will push the
older shutdowns further down the list.

Section 50
10-10-06

00-02-0590
- 23 -

5.2.6 Shutdown Snapshot


The shutdown snapshot screen is a capture
of the values displayed on the Line-by-Line
custom screen at the time of a Fault SD or
ESD event. These values will be retained
and display on the shutdown snapshot
screen until the next Fault SD or ESD event
occurs. An asterisk displayed instead of a
value indicates the shutdown snapshot has
not captured any data or is not functioning.
NOTE: Only the first Line-by-Line
screen configured will be captured. If
no Line-by-Line custom screen is
configured, the shutdown snapshot will
not function.
5.2.7 Event History Screen

The history of the last 32 events is displayed


on this screen, with the most recent at the top
of the list and the oldest at the bottom.
Events include shutdowns, starts, stops,
resets, etc.
The user easily can view the events (alarms,
etc.) logged before and after a shutdown.

5.2.8 Active Alarms Screen

All active alarms and warnings will be


displayed on this screen.
If there are more than six active alarms, there
will be up/down arrow icons at the bottom of
the screen and the user can press the
up/down arrow keys to scroll up or down.
Unacknowledged alarms will be preceded by
a musical note character and acknowledged
alarms will have a bar through the staff of the
note.
Pressing ACK on this screen will
acknowledge all active alarms.
A maximum of twenty (20) active alarm will
be displayed.
NOTE: Alarms are warnings based on
setpoints and/or digital inputs which
are separate from shutdowns.

This screen shows the alarm annunciation as


it will appear on a status screen.
The alarm message(s) will overwrite the
bottom line of the active screen area and
then briefly clear once a second. This will
continue until it is acknowledged with the
ACK key, unless it is a self-clearing alarm. If
there is more than one unacknowledged
alarm active, each alarm will be displayed for
one second each until acknowledged. The
ACK key will acknowledge the alarm currently
displayed. Pressing the Fn key followed by
the ACK key will switch to the active alarms
screen.

5.2.9 Gage Display


This is an example of a custom gage
display. MConfigPro software arranges the
data as needed.
This display provides larger characters for
easier viewing as well as a means to
prominently display items of interest.
Unacknowledged alarms will overwrite the
bottom half of the lower two gage boxes.
The two bottom lines are used to display
the mode, hours, state and active timer
status.

5.2.10 Line-By-Line

This is an example of a custom line-by-line


status screen. The MConfigPro software
arranges the data as needed.
Notice that there are no up/down arrows at
the bottom of the screen because there are
no additional lines to be displayed on this
screen.

This is an example of a custom line-by-line


status screen with more parameters.
If the parameters do not fit in the viewable
area of the screen, up/down arrow icons at
the bottom of the screen can be used to scroll
up or down.
The two bottom lines are used to display the
mode, hours, state and active timer status.

5.2.11 Custom PID Screen

The user may choose to display any


configured PID functions in this convenient
format. The control output will be displayed
as a percentage of the range.
The bottom two lines are used to display the
mode, hours, state and active timer status.

5.3 Setup Screens and Menus


The setup screens provide access to system parameters. These settings can be modified with
appropriate password access. The two bottom lines in the setup screens display navigation
and command options available such as EDIT, ACCEPT, CANCEL and MORE MENUS.

5.3.1 Password Screen


Some settings are password protected, including the setup screens.
This is the first screen seen when the SETUP/ENTER key is pressed.
The password need only be entered once during any editing session. The password will reset
when the editing session is exited, or is timed-out due to keyboard inactivity.
Section 50
10-10-06

00-02-0590
- 27 -

The cursor begins at the last digit on the right. The user can adjust the value of each digit with
the up/down arrows while the left/right arrows are used to select the digit to edit.
Passwords are assigned using the MConfigPro software and each digit can range from zero to
nine (except the first digit on the left) for a total range of 00000 to 65535 for the complete
password.
The user will not be allowed to increase the selected digit if it would result in exceeding range
limits.
NOTE: If the Standard password is not zero and a password of all zeroes
is entered, the user will have view only access.
Inactivity Timeout: Setup procedures must be started and completed in a timely manner.
NOTE: After 3 minutes without activity, the keypad returns the default
operational screen and a password must be re-entered to return to the
setup and edit menus.

There are three separate levels of passwords


to accommodate several security needs:
Standard password Allows access to
every feature except the super user menu.
Valid standard passwords can be zero or any
number between 100 and 65535. If the
standard password is set to zero, the result is
that anyone can have read/write access to
setup menus.

Super User password Adds the super


user menu to the standard menus. Valid
super user passwords can be in the range of
100 to 65535. The super user password can
not be the same as the standard password
and cannot be set to zero.

the user may edit:
a) Signal Type - Select normally open
(N/O) or normally closed (N/C).
b) Signal Filter - Select None to disable
filter function for the digital input. This
will not disable the digital input for
normal operation.
Select Pulse for lubricator divider
blocks with a proximity switch output.
Select DB to debounce or delay input
detection for unstable inputs such as
surge tank level.
c) Filter Timing - Delay time in seconds
for the selected filter type.
For Pulse, this delay is the transition
time for the lubricator divider block to
cycle.
For DB, this is the duration the digital
input must remain either ON or OFF
before the input will be recognized and
accepted as ON or OFF by the
sequence. If the input does not
remain ON or OFF for the duration of
the delay, the timer will reset.
d) Total Pulses - Total number of pulses
counted when the filter type is set to
Pulse. The value is expressed in
hundreds of pulses; a displayed
reading of 1 is equal to 100 pulses.

5.3.7 General Timer Setup

User may edit all general purpose timers.


Generally, global timers affect engine
operation. They also help define an event.
B1: All event types can be associated with,
and locked out by, a Bx timer. B1 is the first
global timer used for delaying an event
condition detection. The timer starts in a
running State (10 13) depending on
which timers have been marked In Use.
B1 is also known as the Lockout Timer,
start bypass or start/run timer.
B2: The second global timer used for
delaying event condition detection. B2 is
also known as a secondary Lockout
Timer.
NOTE: The Bx timers start after the
Start key has been pressed and the
controller has reached a "Running"
state. States 10-13 are the
"Running" states.
C: The delay allowing a clear reading
before beginning testing for the arming of
Class C events. The default and typical
time for most applications is 2 seconds.
S: Users have up to five (5) options to
assign additional special global timers to
signals. The Sx timers begin concurrently
with the Bx timers.
No Flow: The global delay used for
delaying the triggering of a no flow event.
This global no flow timer is enabled after
B1 expires, and begins timing after any of
the pulse transition times configured in the
digital input dialog expires.

Test: Time given to allow for maintenance


testing of end devices without triggering a
fault or shutdown condition. The timer
initiates when switched to test mode.
Ignition Off Delay: Time delay before the
assigned ignition output turns off. This is
typically used to burn remaining fuel vapors
after the fuel valve is turned off.
Ignition On Delay: Time delay before the
assigned ignition output turns on. This is
typically used to delay ignition until engine
has started cranking (also known as a
purge delay).
Fuel On Delay: Time delay before the
assigned fuel valve output is turned on.
This is typically used to delay fuel until
ignition has been turned on.

5.3.9 Setpoints Setup


User can edit any of the 128 setpoints that are configured.
Setpoints further configure variable input types such as MPU, analog, or thermocouples by
defining a threshold, exception or any other out-of-limit event that may require action. Multiple
setpoints are often applied to a process and they may be configured as often as needed to
meet changing conditions.
Common alarm and shutdown setpoints a user might have configured include:

High shutdown (High-High)


High warning (High)
Open warning (Open or Fail)
Low warning (Low)
Low shutdown (Low-Low)

To edit a configured setpoint:


a) Assign numeric threshold that if crossed,
triggers the setpoint.

b) Adjust the sign of the threshold value as


plus (+) or minus (-) by moving the cursor to
the sign symbol position and use the up and
down keys to toggle the sign.
For more on setpoints, please refer to the

5.3.10 Control Output Setup


The Centurion controller allows users to define up to eight (8) outputs to augment control not
otherwise defined by digital output assignments.
The Centurion can be configured through MConfigPro software to define an analog output, a
digital output, a single pulsed digital output, or two pulsed digital outputs.
NOTE: Control outputs 1 through 4, are directly related to PID calculation
loops and are further defined in the PID dialog screens described in the
PID Setup section. For example, PID 1 is assigned its control from control
output 1, PID 2 from control output 2, and so on.
If the configured output is a pulsed cycle, the
user may edit those behaviors by assigning
values the following:
a) Increase Max On Time. Set limit of
maximum on-time for Increase pulses.
b) Increase Off Time. Set fixed off-time for
Increase pulses.
c) Increase Changeover On Time. Set fixed
on-time for single pulse on direction change
for Increase.
d) Increase Changeover Off Time. Set fixed
off-time for single pulse on direction change
for increase.
e) Decrease Max On Time. Set limit of
maximum on-time for decrease pulses.
f) Decrease Off Time. Set fixed off-time for
decrease pulses.
g) Decrease Changeover On Time. Set
fixed on-time for single pulse on direction
change for decrease.
h) Decrease Changeover Off Time. Set
fixed off-time for single pulse on direction
change for decrease.

5.3.11 Proportional Integral Derivative (PID) Setup


Users may view and edit up to four (4) MConfigPro software configured PID calculation loops.
A PID provides a constant feedback loop, in which the PID can correct for a measured process
variable against a desired set point, output the corrective action to the process and wait for and
recalculate the next measurement.
The ultimate goal of the PID is to reduce the error to zero while maintaining the control setpoint
(e.g. speed, load, pressure).
NOTE: During the time a PID is enabled, the PID always overrides control
output settings found in the states dialog. PID 1 assumes control of control
output 1, PID 2 assumes control of control output 2, and so on.
To view and edit PID settings:
a) Setpoint: Assign the desired goalthe
target feedback base value.
b) DeadBand: Assign a value around the
setpoint during which the PID will not
calculate error or take action.
c) Ramp Time: Assign a time interval for the
PID to calculate error.
d) Max % of Change: Assign a percentage
rate of change of the output, greater than
which may cause harm to the system.
e) Minimum Output: Assign a percentage
as minimum output. Typically 0 (zero).
f) Maximum Output: Assign a percentage
as maximum output. Typically 10000
(100.00%)
g) Proportional: Assign a constant value for
the proportional coefficient of the PID loop
calculation that causes a portion of the output
to be a fixed amount proportional to the size
of the error.
h) Integral: Assign a value for the integral
coefficient of the PID loop calculation that
causes a portion of the calculated output to
change with accumulated error over time.

Section 50
10-10-06

00-02-0590
- 39 -

i) Derivative: Assign a constant value for the


derivative coefficient of the PID loop
calculation that causes a portion of the
calculated output to change with the change
in the size of error versus time.
j) OverRide Ramp Time: Assign a time
interval value to wait before making the next
override adjustment.
NOTE: Override settings are only
used when there is a configuration
for overriding the primary PID control
loop with another process variable.
k) OverRide Ramp Amount: Determine the
increments in a given direction (positive or
negative) that the primary setpoint should be
altered to regain balanced processes. In the
example of the discharge and suction
pressure application, this value would
indicate how much the PID should resist its
goal in reaching the setpoint.
l) OverRide Max Change: Assign a
maximum allowed change. This represents
the total amount of change allowed into or out
of the ramp amount from the setpoint. The
maximum change value should be large
enough to effect change.

6 Communications
6.1 Communication Ports
6.1.1 Port 1 (SERIAL)
Port 1 is intended as the primary port for the local device, the display, and should be utilized
for display in order for the boot loader mode to properly execute in pass-through mode.
Interface: Refer to the sequence of operations to determine how the communication port has
been configured.
Protocol: Modbus RTU (slave)
Connection: There are three (3) screw terminal connectors for RS485. These are identified as
A, B, and SHD.
There are three (3) screw terminal connectors for RS232. These are identified as RX, TX, and
DTR.
SHD is common for both ports.

6.1.2 Port 2 (SERIAL)


Interface: Refer to the sequence of operations to determine how the communication port has
been configured.
Protocol: Modbus RTU (slave), Proprietary (binary)
Connection: There are three (3) screw terminal connectors for RS485. These are identified as
A, B, and SHD.
There are three (3) screw terminal connectors for RS232. These are identified as RX, TX, and
DTR.
SHD is common for both ports.
Modbus RTU Slave Address Configuration: The operator may assign a unique Modbus
address to each controller (slave) unit that may be in the system. This allows the master
controller to differentiate between the modules. For example, to name the controller address
21, place the shunts on LK1, LK4, and LK16 (1 + 4 +16 = 21). Typically, this configuration is
set to (1) by the factory.

Section 50

6.1.3 Port 2 (USB)


Interface: USB 1.1 compliant port capable of emulating RS232 communications via royaltyfree pc driver.
Protocol/Services: Modbus RTU (slave), Proprietary (binary)
Connection: There is a USB type B connector.
Automatic selection of USB is provided when a signal is detected on the USB type B
connector. Connections for RS485 and RS232 will not be enabled on port 2 when USB is
connected.

6.1.4 Port 3 (CAN)


Protocol/Services: Proprietary (binary)
Connection: There are three (3) screw terminal connectors for CAN. These are identified as
HI, LOW, and SHD.
On Main I/O Module
Located next to the USB connector is the CAN OK (COP). When in the boot loader the COP
LED does not flash.
When the program is running properly the COP LED will flash on and off every 0.5 seconds. If
the checksum in the configuration file does not match the calculated checksum of the file, then
the program will flash the COP LED 3 times at 0.5 second intervals and then stay off for 1.5
seconds.
On the Expansion I/O Module
When the program is running properly the COP LED will flash on and off every 0.5 seconds.

6.2 Downloading Configurations and Firmware Updates


The Centurion controller and display are configured and upgradeable through software
transfers using a PC or laptop computer.
Configurations provide the necessary instructions to the controller and display and install
default parameters that can be adjusted through the display or Modbus RTU.
Firmware defines the available features that can be configured in the controller and display
using the MConfigPro software.
Since no chips are used to change the behavior of the equipment, Murphy can provide future
enhancements and support changes to process requirement for customers using a simple
email.

6.2.1 Boot Loader


It is necessary for the Centurion controller to enter boot loader mode in order to receive
downloads for a firmware update, and configurations from MConfigPro. During boot loader
mode the Centurion is able to receive configuration updates from the MConfigPro software and
transmit configuration updates to display through pass-through.
Communications will operate according to default state parameters for configuration transfers.
During boot loader mode, the transfer rate is 9600, N, 8, 1 and assumes a serial
communication port setting of RS485 or a USB connection.
The controller recognizes whether the incoming data is for a configuration, or firmware update.
In order for the Centurion configurable controller to enter boot loader mode, the address
jumpers are removed during power up (power cycled). The display and third party HMI devices
will not receive a response to polls on port 1 while the boot loader is active.
Power on the Centurion must be cycled with the jumper installed to resume normal operation,
or run mode. See section Port 2 (Serial) in the Controller Communication Ports chapter for
more details on address jumpers.

6.2.2 Pass-through
During boot loader, the Centurion controller allows users to remain connected to both the PC
and the display and update the two devices with a single connection.
The Centurion controller accepts the message through one port (port 2) and passes it through
another port (port 1) directly to the display, as if the pc and display were directly connected.

6.2.5 Downloading Firmware Updates to the Display


Firmware updates for the display require a
USB connection. While boot loader mode for
the display is not required for configuration
downloads, it is required for firmware
updates.
The boot loader can be entered by menu
selection if the USB cable is currently
connected, otherwise the display will reset
and restart the current application firmware.
Optionally, the boot loader can be entered by
connecting the USB cable and cycling power.
(This method will leave the display blank
while in the boot loader.)
Upon entry to the boot loader, all
communication from the display to the
controller will stop. There is a red status LED
below the USB connector that will blink three

6.2.6 Error Messages


On occasion an invalid configuration error might display because the configuration between
the Centurion controller and its devices are out of synch -- the checksums do not match. The
invalid configuration screen will appear briefly after downloading configurations until
comparisons are made.
The user may direct the error message to be ignored through a setting at the super user menu.
At CONFIG FAIL DISABLE, the user would select Yes to ignore the data mismatch.
This setting is temporary. Once power is cycled-on, the error message will continue until
comparisons between the devices yield no configuration mismatch.
Two options are available for synchronizing data when fine-tuning changes are made in the
field. They are:

A super user could choose to also download the configuration from the super user
menu on display.

A user without access to the super user menu could activate the download
through the special jump code 35.

This screen indicates that the controller is not


responding to poll requests. There are only
two ways to exit this screen, either by normal
responses resuming or if the SETUP/ENTER
key is pressed.

Section 50

This screen will be displayed when a


configuration fault is detected.
Possible sources of the fault include a corrupt
or missing configuration in the display, a
corrupt or missing configuration in the
controller or a mismatch of configurations in
the display and controller.
This screen will appear briefly after
configuration downloads and may appear
briefly after initial communication is
established until comparisons are complete.
The fault can be resolved by downloading the
proper configuration to one or both devices
NOTE: This error message does not always
indicate a problem, but may only signify that
initial comparisons between devices do not
match.

6.3 Modbus RTU Protocol


The Centurion configurable controller was programmed with the Modbus protocol which is a
system based on a master and slave relationship. With Modbus protocol, the master and
slave are able to continue to communicate with each other through defined messages over a
variety of network types. The master initiates the queries or commands, and the slave
responds to the query with a message or takes action based on the query.
In this case, the master is either MConfigPro (or another Modbus client software), or display,
but never both simultaneously as there can only ever be a single Modbus master.
The Centurion system communicates through Modbus using remote terminal unit (RTU)
transmission mode to maximize data processing.
As with all numeric data defined within Modbus, the programming is limited to accepting
integers (whole numbers only, no decimals). This is important whenever a decimal point is
defined for analog inputs.
For example, for the controller to properly read 100.0 with an implied decimal point of 1, the
user would need to enter 1000 and 1000 would be stored in the appropriate Modbus register.
From the display, the value will be represented with a decimal in the fixed position.
For additional information, please refer to the MConfigPro Configuration Software Installation
and Operations Manual.

6.4 Transferring Data in Modbus


Note that text visible in the MConfigPro software and on the display is not stored in the
Centurion controller. Except for the version description in the version and security dialog for
each configuration file, descriptions assigned in the configuration are not stored in the
Centurion controller. Descriptions for various I/O and processes are downloaded to the display
and reside as a configuration in that device only. Configurations of the display are one way
only.
Parameter changes made in the display are actually communicated to the Centurion controller
where the logic resides. No changes made through the display affect the display configuration
as the display merely reads from, and writes to the Centurion main I/O module. As such, the
display can write numeric parameters to the controller.

9 Glossary
Analog Input

Terminals 18 to 29 are analog inputs on the Centurion Main I/O


module. Accepts voltage signals within the range of (0 to 5) VDC or (4
to 20) mA and are compared to controller set points and/or displayed.

Boot Loader

Means by which the Centurion controller communicates with display


and MConfigPro to receive and transfer new or updated configurations
and firmware; and ensure data and configuration synchronization.

Controller Setpoints

User defines normal operating range for the controller to optimize the
equipment. Setpoints can also define some other threshold, exception
or event that may require action. Multiple setpoints are often applied
to a process and they may be manipulated as needed to meet
changing conditions.

DeadBand

The user set range at which input may fluctuate without the controller
taking any action. The range may be fixed or variable.

Digital Input

Terminals 30 to 61 are the digital input channels. User selects whether


digital input is normally open (N/O), or normally closed (N/C). Users
may also associate these inputs with transition times for indicating noflow conditions on divider blocks.

Event

Defines the action required by the controller in response to any


number of parameters. Event actions range from simple alarm
message to emergency shutdown (ESD).

No-flow

Designed to protect against compressor or engine failures, the


controller monitors the cycle time of lubrication system cycles and if
that cycle time falls under a user assigned value, the controller will
activate a defined associated action such as an alarm or shutdown.

Offset

User defined value to correct for known variance in the raw data.

Panel Ready

In states, the first logical step in start up.

Permissive

A process condition, (digital input or analog setpoint), that must be met


in order for the sequence to proceed to the next state.

Signal

An electrical quantity of voltage or current that is used to represent or


signify some other physical quantity such as the state of a switch
(ON/OFF) or the status of a device (SHUTDOWN/OK)

Span

The difference between the full scale output and the offset as raw data.

Start Delay

A time delay function to prevent premature start up.

Section 50
10-10-06

00-02-0590
- 64 -

State

Predefined step of multiple logical steps (or states) needed to


successfully start and operate a compressor.

Terminal Emulator

Allows a user to modify the firmware to allow upload or download of a


record to either the display or the controller. Always download a
configuration after a firmware change.

Thermocouple

A device for measuring temperature consisting of two dissimilar metals


of high purity for an accurate temperature/voltage relationship. User
defines whether the calibration is J or K. Terminals 1 to 17 are for
thermocouple inputs.
Type J uses Red (-) and White (+) insulation.
Type K uses Red (-) and Yellow (+) insulation.

10.3 Restrictions on Numeric Values in Gage and PID Monitor Screens


Due to a combination of the limited space and the spirit of the design objectives, there are
certain restrictions imposed upon the formatted size of numbers in display screens.

Positive numbers with no decimals can be displayed with up to four digits.

Negative numbers are limited to three digits.

Numbers of either sign with a decimal place are limited to three digits.

Numbers with more than two decimal places will not be displayed at all, but will be
replaced with dashes.

If a number with decimals is larger than the imposed limits, the display algorithm will attempt to
adjust the precision so as to display as many of the most significant digits as possible.

OPERATION TEST INSTRUCTIONS

OPLC, OPLFC and OPLBP


1. Perform operation test after the unit is installed and wired appropriately.
(See the typical wiring diagram, on page 4.)
2. When pressure is applied to the instrument, the pointer will travel in a
clockwise direction. Adjust the limit contacts to the desired settings.
3. To start, place the toggle switch in the startposition or otherwise
override low contact.
4. After the indication pointer rises above the low limit contact, return the
toggle switch or override device to the runposition.
5. To test the limit contacts, turn the limit contact to be tested until it touches
the pointer. That will trip the control circuit.
6. Reset the shutdown or alarm circuit device and repeat above sequence for each
contact/trip point.

45 Series
1. Repeat steps 1 and 2. (See OPLC operation test instructions.)
2. Press the semi-automatic pushbutton located on the low contact knob.
3. Reset the magnetic switch pushbutton.
4. After the indication pointer rises above the low limit contact, the lockout pushbutton automatically disengages and the low limit is armed.
5. Repeat steps 5 and 6. (See OPLC operation test instructions.)
45APE, 45APEF and 45APEBP
1. Repeat steps 1 and 2. (See OPLC operation test instructions.)
2. To test the switches, turn the trip point indicator until it is aligned with the
Swichgage pointer. This is the approximate trip point.
Continue to rotate until the snap switch operates.
3. Reset the shutdown or alarm circuit device.

Description
The 2 and 2-1/2 in. (51 and 64 mm) dial size Murphygage and Swichgage instruments are diaphragm-actuated, pressure or vacuum gages with a 1/8-27 NPTM pressure port connection (2 pressure ports for differential pressure models).
Models with face-adjustable contact(s) are rated for 2 A @ 30 V (pilot duty). If the
gage case is steel (20P, 25P, 20DP, 25DP etc.) the ground path for the contact circuit
is through the case. Therefore, the case must be installed in the ground plane of the
electrical power supply.
If the case is polycarbonate (A20P, A20DP, A25P, A25DP etc.) the ground path
is isolated and is made through the C or P terminals on the back of the gage
case (C for A20 models; P for A25 models).
Models 20PE, 25PE, A20PE, A25PE etc. have a snap-acting switch instead of
the face adjustable pointer type contact. Electrical rating is 3 A @ 30 VDC, 4 A
@ 125 VAC. Reset differential for the switch is approximately 10% of the scale.
NOTE: Select a scale so your normal operating pressure is in the upper middle of the scale.

Panel Mounting
All models can be installed in a panel from 0.032 to 0.250 in. (1 to 6 mm) thick.
Remove the mounting bracket and insert the gage from the front side of the panel.
Replace bracket and secure it. Do NOT overtighten. (See Figure 2).

Connecting the Pressure Port


CAUTION: Certain dangers to human safety and to equipment may
occur if some equipment is stopped without pre-warning. It is recommended that monitored functions be limited to alarm-only or to alarm
before shutdown.

Alarm Before Shutdown Models


The 20PABS, A20PABS, 25PABS and A25PABS feature a front limit contact for
equipment shut-down and an internal SPDT snap switch for Alarm Before ShutDown. When the low side (preset point) of the snap switch trips, the N.C. terminal
completes a circuit to activate an alarm. A continued decrease in pressure will complete the shutdown circuit. An increase in pressure of approximately 10% of scale is
necessary before the snap-switch (alarm) will reset and open the circuit.
NOTE: Face contact shut-down limit setting and snap switch low point are factory-set; specify when ordering if setting is other than standard.

Typical Tattletale Magnetic Switch


Murphy manufactures several, patented Magnetic Switches for protection of the pilot
duty Swichgage contacts and to ensure positive shut-down of equipment. There are
magnetic switches for CD ignition, Magneto, Battery systems and electric motor driven equipment. Tattletale annunciators show the cause of shut-down. The first one to
trip will lockout all other Tattletale annunciators. Be sure the type of magnetic switch
or Tattletale annunciator matches the power source used to trip it.
NOTE: At equipment start-up (for models not having a built-in time delay) the reset button must be held in until normal operation occurs, or an external time delay may be
used. Instructions are packed with each Magnetic Switch orTattletale annunciator.
Products covered by this literature comply with EMC Council directive
89/336/EEC regarding electromagnetic compatibility except as noted.

1. Pressure tubing is generally not provided. Use of good quality flexible pressure

tubing/hose and fittings is strongly suggested. Use at least 3/16 in. (5 mm) I.D.
tubing. If using copper or rigid tubing, install at least 12 in. (305 mm) flexible
hose from the gage to the rigid tubing. This prevents damaging vibration from
reaching the gage. For most models a pulsation orifice, within the pressure port,
is provided and it is removMounting

IMPORTANT: Swichgage instruments, magnetic switches and shutdown


or alarm devices, properly used, are effective tools in any preventive maintenance
program. For optimum performance, check these tools periodically: look for
frozen pointers, kinked/worn tubing, broken wiring or loose connections; operate
the contacts and watch for expected results. Replace damaged/worn parts;
clean/repair as necessary. Check for correct/complete wiring, unbroken insulation
and no accidental grounds. Do not run shut-down wires with ignition wiring.
Check all tubing and connections for leaks. Mount magnetic switches and valves
upright, to prevent moisture collection.

Connecting Differential Pressure Models


Differential pressure models are typically applied to indicate restriction in oil/fuel filters. The High pressure port (center mounted) is piped to the Inlet side of the filter.
The Low pressure port (top center mounted) is piped to the Outlet side of the filter.
CAUTION: Make SURE NOT TO FOUL the pressure orifices with
pipe dope or dirt or the SWICHGAGE instrument will not operate.

2. You MUST use a second wrench on the Low Pressure port when tightening tube

fittings. (Figure 4). Notice that a wrench is used for holding the low pressure port
while a second wrench will tighten the pressure tubing/hose fitting onto the port.
WARNING: Failure to use a second wrench on the low pressure
port when tightening tube fittings may result in damage to the internal
mechanisms.

1. To connect the high pressure tubing use at least 3/16 in. (5 mm) I.D. flexible

pressure tubing/hose and fittings. If using copper or rigid tubing, install at


least 12 in. (305 mm) flexible hose from the gage to the rigid tubing (to prevent damaging vibration to the gage, see Figure 2).

Setting the Swichgage


instrument contacts

Testing the Contacts


1. With equipment running; use a 1/16 in. hex wrench to rotate contact until it

touches the pointer. Do NOT force contact against the gage pointer.
Equipment should shut down and/or alarm should operate. Reset the contact
(See Figure 5).
2. VERY IMPORTANT Each time you start the machine, observe that the
SWICHGAGE is indicating pressure or vacuum. Visual inspection and regular testing should be normal procedure to ensure proper operation and to
achieve maximum results from your Swichgage instrument.

IMPORTANT:: If the Swichgage has a lockout push button


on the face, a contact setting higher than the factory setting will
make the lockout device inoperative.
For 20PE, 25PE, 25DPE, A20PE, A25PE and A25DPE models
the switch trip point CANNOT be set at either the lowest or the highest
extremes of the scale. Trip point MUST allow for the switch reset differential.
For adjustable switch versions, the switch point is adjustable ONLY
over the lower half of the scale.

PRESSURE

1. All contacts are set using a 1/16 in. hex wrench (Figure 5).
2. Some models such as A20PE, A25PE, etc. may not have field adjustment.

Consult the factory if in doubt. For adjustable models, 1/4 turn clockwise lowers switch operating point approximately 7% of scale.
3. Observe the normal operating pressure or vacuum readings. Set the contact
slightly below minimum reading observed or slightly above minimum pressure recommended by equipment manufacturer. For differential pressure models set the contact slightly below the desired maximum differential pressure.

Wiring Installation
WARNING:

DISCONNECT ALL ELECTRICAL POWER BEFORE BEGINNING THE WIRING INSTALLATION.

FOR BATTERY IGNITION SYSTEMS, DISCONNECT THE BATTERY GROUND STRAP. FACE ADJUSTED POINTER TYPE CONTACTS ARE PILOT DUTY. DO NOT EXCEED CONTACT RATINGS ON ANY SWICHGAGE MODEL.

20 and 25 Series models wire leads are 18 AWG or 20 AWG, 12 in. (305 mm)
long. A20 and A25 Series models have number 4 or number 6 screw terminals.
When installing the Swichgage instrument on an ungrounded panel, you MUST
provide a ground wire from the Swichgage instrument to a common ground.
Install ONLY in a 12 or 24 V system. Warning lights or audible signal must be of the
same voltage as the battery. Current draw should never exceed Swichgage contact
ratings.

The pictorial below shows typical wirings for each base model. Look for specific
typical wiring diagram with your base model number and wire accordingly.
The pointer is shown in the Shelf Position. Face adjusted pointer type contacts
are rated pilot duty 2 A @ 30 VAC/DC. Snap-switch contacts are rated 3 A @
30 VDC; 4 A @ 125 VAC.
CAUTION: On some models pointer contact and ABS switch share the same
Common. Voltage source must be the same. Maximum voltage is 30 V. Consult
factory for applications with 120 VAC systems.

CAUTION: Ordinary incandescent lights are damaging to Swichgage contacts. We recom-

mend using our direct connected alarms TL-7 flashing lamp and/or SAH mini-siren.

The Kim Hotstart System


The Kim Hotstart standard OWT and OER medium pumping capacity models are shown
below. All models (small, medium, and large) are identical in operation. Each heating
system consists of a lube oil heating process. The oil is continuously circulated through
the heating tank. Only the heating element inside the tank is cycled on and off. The
heating element is controlled by a thermostat sensing unit located at the inlet of the
heating tank. The lube oil inlet/outlet and heating process is described on the following
page. All oil systems are designed to maintain warm-oil take over. They are not
designed to take over on a cold-oil start up.

Lube Oil Inlet/Outlet Process


Upon a system start-up, engine lube oil is taken from at least 2-inches above the lowest
point of the lube oil sump and circulated by a positive displacement rotary gear pump
through the oil heating tank and back to the engine. Options are available on the return
line. In most cases, heated oil is circulated directly back to the oil sump.
Other options include: continuous lubing and pre-lubing before start-up.

The system must be mounted as low as possible to minimize suction lift to the pump.

The size of the oil supply line must be calculated using the supplied table. Please refer to
section 2-2 and 2-3.

The Oil supply line may be flexible or rigid and must be sized to the pump.

The 7 to 10gpm pump must have at least a 1-inch I.D. line.

The 16 to 30gpm pumps must have at least a 1-inch I.D. line.

Oil must be taken from at least two inches above the bottom of the sump.

Place full-flow valves in the supply and discharge lines to allow for maintenance. Valve
size must conform to the line size.
Kim Hotstart heating systems should be mounted as near as possible to the suction port
on the oil sump. If possible mount the pump below the level of the oil to provide flooded
suction to the pump. The oil suction plumbing is critical to the proper operation of
the heating system. If the suction plumbing is under-sized, to long or has too many
fittings in it, the pump will not work correctly. Some of the problems this can cause are:
Pump seal leaking, cavitation, oil foaming and break down, noisy pump, excessive
vibration, and internal pump damage.

Section 1 Heating System Overview

1-6

For heating, the heating system continuously pumps oil to the engines oil sump.
For pre-lubing, plumbing is routed back to the top of the engine in order to pre-lube the
engine prior to start-up. This is done by means of a teed junction with a manual or
solenoid valve.
NOTE: Kim Hotstart does not specify the volume or pressure of oil to the top of
the engine for pre-lubing. See engine manufacturer.

Lube Oil Flow Detection


Following lube oils inlet and
circulation through the heating tank,
the oil passes through a flow
detection switch. The flow
detection switch immediately shuts
off the heating element anytime
there is an interruption or loss of
flow, and activates the time delay
relay located inside the control box.
The pump continues to circulate the
oil to restore flow.
If proper flow is not reestablished,
the time delay relay shuts down the
entire heating system according to a
preset time. The time delay relay is
adjustable from 0 to 180 seconds.
Upon an initial system start-up, the
time delay relay should be adjusted
to the maximum of 180 seconds.
Once flow is achieved, Kim
Hotstart recommends a setting of 30
seconds.

Basic System Installation


Following are complete instructions for proper installation of the:

Main Power Supply


Oil Supply Line
Oil Discharge Line

CAUTION:

VIBRATION DURING SHIPMENT OF THE HEATING SYSTEM CAN


CAUSE SCREWS IN THE CONTROL BOX TO LOOSEN. PLEASE
CHECK ALL CONNECTIONS IN THE CONTROL BOX AFTER
INSTALLATION AND PERIODICALLY DURING OPERATION.

Main Power Supply


Connect the specified voltage and phase to the terminal block located in the main control
box. For 3-phase applications, the terminal block is labeled L1, L2 and L3. For single
phase applications, the terminal block is labeled L1 and L3.
The heating element and the circulating pump of the heating system derive power from
the main power source to the system. The circuitry in the control box determines the duty
cycle of the heating element and circulating pump. A transformer, which drops the main
supply voltage to 120 VAC, powers the control circuit. The transformer and control
circuit are overload protected with fuses.

Oil Supply Line


Kim Hotstart heating systems should be mounted as near as possible to the suction port
on the oil sump. If possible, mount the pump below the level of the oil to provide
flooded suction to the pump. The oil suction plumbing is critical to the proper
operation of the heating system. If the suction plumbing is under-sized, too long or has
too many fittings in it, the pump will not work correctly. Some of the problems this can
cause are: Pump seal leaking, cavitation, oil foaming and break down, noisy pump,
excessive vibration, and internal pump damage.
The pump requires not more than 15inHg ( 7.5psi ) suction lift to the pump. The
factors that control that are: The height the pump is above the top of the oil in the sump,
the viscosity of the oil, the size and configuration of the suction line, and the altitude
(barometric pressure).
The suction line size must be determined using the following calculations:
Determine each of the 3 following values and add them together to determine if your
system meets the requirements of less than 7.5psi suction lift. SAE 40 motor oil is
used for these calculations. If your calculated value is too high, increase the line size or
move the heater closer to the suction port of the engine. These figures are only estimates.
The flow rate of the pump on your system is listed on page 1-4 of this manual. The table
on the next page shows friction losses in a smooth line at specified flows. Use the table
on 2-3 to determine the frictional losses in the line you intend to use.
If the pump is above the oil level to calculate the suction pressure multiply the number
of feet the pump is above the oil level by 0.38 to get the psi of the suction lift. If the
pump is below the oil level this can be negative.
Next, determine the altitude the pump will be at. For every 1000 feet above sea level
multiply that number by 0.5 to get psi loss for altitude (barometric pressure).
Add the three numbers together. If they are greater than 7.5 psi reduce your pipe length
or increase the diameter to reduce the frictional losses from the pipe. If they are less than
7.5psi your pump should work properly.

If the oil supply line is excessively long or the heating tank is mounted higher than
the sump, install a check valve near the oil supply to prevent oil from draining back
to the sump when the heating system is off. Installation of a check valve also
eliminates repeated priming of the pump on heating system start-up. Make sure all
suction pipe connections are tight. A loose connection will not allow the pump to
circulate oil.

To allow for heating system maintenance without draining the engine sump, install a
shut-off valve between the sump and the rotary gear pump.

To minimize foreign material from entering the heating system, install the suction
line at least 2 inches above the lowest point of the oil sump.

NOTE: To avoid premature failure of the heating element, be sure to position the
heating tank so that a complete oil fill is accomplished while in operation.

Oil Discharge Line


Connect a 1-inch or 1 1/2-inch N.P.T. line from the heating system outlet to the engine
sump. Size the pipe line according to the size of the pumps outlet port. For large capacity
OWT and OER systems, the outlet port normally takes a 1 1/2-inch I.D. pipe. For small
and medium capacity OWT and OER systems, the outlet port normally takes a 1-inch
I.D. pipe.
Note: Upon completion of oil return line installation, top off oil levels to
compensate for the oil used to fill the lines and heating tank.

Section 2 Installation and System Start-Up

2-4

System Mounting Requirements


Be sure to mount the Kim Hotstart OWT or OER heating system as low as possible with
the discharge line exiting from the top of the OWT or OER heating system. This allows
the heating tank to completely fill at all times and prevents premature element failure.
Turn OFF the heating system before starting up the engine.

Lube Oil Pump


The Kim Hotstart OWT or OER heating system heats the lube oil and can continuously
heat the engine, or pre-lube it before start-up. On the suction side of the Kim Hotstart
lube oil pump, oil is taken from at least 2-inches above the lowest point of the oil sump
(not directly at the bottom of the oil sump) and pumped through the OWT or OER
systems heater and discharged back to the engine. The discharge oil line should be sized
according to the size of the pumps discharge port. The Kim Hotstart lube pump can be
configured for continuous heating, or teed off with (solenoid or manual) valving for prelubing the engine prior to start-up.
NOTE: All oil pump relief valves are preset to 50 PSI.

Section 2 Installation and System Start-Up

System Start-Up
After system installation has been completed, follow these steps for proper OWT or OER
heating system start-up.

Lube Oil Heating System Start-Up


Step 1 Check and tighten all electrical and plumbing connections.
Step 2 Open the control box. Turn the control knob on the oil time delay relay inside
the control box clockwise to the maximum setting of 180 seconds.

Step 3 Energize the oil heating system by turning the switch on the control box to the
ON position. The red light on the control panel is lit. Bump start the system (by
rocking the power switch ON and OFF) and check for proper rotation of the
motor/pump assembly. If the pump motor is turning the wrong direction, switch
any two electrical leads on the POWER IN block located in the control box for 3
phase systems.
WARNING: DO NOT RUN THE MOTOR/PUMP ASSEMBLY DRY.
Step 4

If the minimum flow rate is not achieved or flow restriction in the suction line
has occurred, the heating system will automatically shut down approximately 3
minutes after start-up. Turn the system OFF and check plumbing lines for any
leaks or restrictions. Air entrapment may also occur in the oil lines or pump.
Repeat steps 2, 3, and 4.
NOTE:

Step 5

On initial start-up, it may take several attempts to achieve proper


flow.

Once operation is satisfactory; turn the control knob on the oil time delay relay
to the desired setting. Kim Hotstart recommends a setting of 30 seconds. Turn
the heating system off and then back on to activate a new setting.

Time Delay Relay


The time delay relay is a safety device that works in conjunction with the flow detection
switch. If, for any reason, the heating systems minimum flow rate (G.P.M.) is
interrupted, the flow detection switch immediately shuts off the heating element and
activates the time delay relay.
The time delay relay allows the pump/motor to operate for a preset length of time, from 0
to 180 seconds, in an attempt to restore the heating systems minimum flow rate. The
recommended preset time is 30 seconds. If the minimum flow rate is not achieved by the
preset time, the time delay relay automatically shuts down the entire heating system,
preventing damage to the heating element and pump/motor. The system will then have to
be restarted manually. The time delay relays for OWT and OER models are shown in the
illustration on the previous page.
To reset the time delay relay, turn the system power OFF and follow the step-by-step
instructions for system start-up described in the Installation and System Start-Up section
of this manual. The time delay relay requires no maintenance. To order a replacement,
reference the replacement part number listed below.
Time-Delay Relay Replacement Part Number: PRP224046-000

Magnetic Contactors
Because of their low drop out voltage, definite purpose magnetic contactors (shown on
the previous page) are used as voltage switching controls in Kim Hotstart OWT and OER
heating systems. The contactors use 120 volt coils. In case of contactor failure, check
the coil voltage for continuity.
The contactor contacts are made of silver cadmium oxide and should be inspected
periodically for welding, arc erosion, and mechanical wear. If any of these conditions
exist, clean the contacts or replace the contactor.

Remote Control
The OER and OWT systems are both equipped with a pressure switch or a 24VDC relay
for remote switching of the heater. The pressure switch is designed to plumb into the
engines oil system. This configuration allows the heater to disengage upon engine
startup and re-engage when the engine shuts down. The 24VDC relay works on the same
principle except it uses a 24VDC electrical signal to stop and start the heater. Please refer
to the wiring diagram in the Appendix for details.

Motor Protective Switch


The Motor Protective Switch (MPS) used in your Kim Hotstart heating system was
engineered to achieve a level of quality that is unsurpassed in the industry. The MPS
(shown below) provides short-circuit protection, thermal overload protection, switching
and signaling.
Short Circuit Protection
A wide variety of applications range from 0.1 to 25 FLA at voltages up to 600V. In the
event of a short circuit, the contacts are opened by non-adjusting, magnetic tripping
elements in less than 1 /1000 of a second. This results in the extremely rapid buildup of
an arc voltage that limits the current of the short circuit to a very low level. Because of
this superb current limiting capability, the MPS has an extremely high short-circuit
capacity of 50 KA at 600V.
Motor Overload Protection
Each MPS is calibrated at the factory for the smallest and largest current to ensure an
accurate time/current characteristic curve. In addition, the MPS is a Class 10 device
that will trip within 10 seconds under a locked rotor condition (6 x FLA). The MPS
provides protection from single-phase conditions at a maximum of 1.25 x FLA.
Accurate adjustment of the overload trip ensures effective motor protection even with
a phase loss. To maintain constant trip times, the MPS is also equipped with automatic
ambient temperature compensation that continually adjusts to surrounding temperatures.

Flow Detection Switch


The Flow Detection Switch (shown on
right) is a safety device designed to
protect the heating and pumping
system. This switch is located on the
outlet end of the oil heating tank. If,
for any reason, the oil heating systems
minimum flow rate (G.P.M.) is
interrupted, the flow detection switch
immediately shuts off the heating
element and activates the time delay
relay. The minimum flow rate required
for most heating systems is 2 GPM. To
order a flow detection switch,
reference the part number listed on the
following page. The 2.8 GPM systems
use a 0.5 GPM flow switch.
NOTE: The flow detection switch
should be checked periodically for
foreign matter that may build up on
the shuttle body. For cleaning
instructions, refer to page 4-3 in the
System Maintenance section of this
manual.

System Maintenance and Troubleshooting


This section describes maintenance procedures for the Kim Hotstart Model OWT/OER Heating
System and provides tips for troubleshooting.

System Maintenance
The following maintenance procedures are provided to ensure trouble-free operation of
your heating system:
Control Box
Plumbing Connections
Electrical Connections and Contacts
Heating Tanks/Elements
Flow Detection Switch
Pump & Motor Assemblies
System Mounting
WARNING
DISCONNECT ALL POWER PRIOR TO PERFORMING ANY SYSTEM
MAINTENANCE.

Control Box


Periodically check gaskets for proper seals.

Check the control box for moisture (if necessary, add desiccant packets).

Plumbing Connections


Periodically check plumbing connections for leaks and, if necessary, tighten


connections. A loose connection on the suction side will cause a loss of flow.

Electrical Connections


Excessive vibration will eventually cause terminals to loosen. Tighten at startup and
check again in a week. Periodically tighten all electrical connections every 3
months.

Electrical Contacts


Inspect electrical contacts for wear. Worn contacts should be replaced with new
contactors.

Section 4 System Maintenance & Troubleshooting

4-1

Heating Tank


At least once per year, clean the interior of the heating tank and the heating element
with a wire brush and/or damp cloth. Periodically check the element for sediment
build-up around the hairpins. Any scaling or build-up will shorten element life.
Maintenance and replacement procedures for the heating element are described in
System Components of this manual.

Following lengthy system shut downs, remove the terminal covers of the element
assembly as shown in System Components and check for any moisture or
condensation. Electric tubular heating elements contain a granular refractory
material called magnesium oxide (MGO) to insulate the resistor coil from the outer
metal sheath. MGO is hygroscopic, which means it has the ability to absorb
moisture from the air. MGO contaminated with moisture reduces the insulating
value of the MGO which is measured with an Ohm meter and read as resistance on
the megohms range (1 meg-ohms = 1 million ohms = 1M Ohms) . Low resistance
(less than 1M Ohms) is a transient condition experienced on first heat-up under
normal periodic heater usage. Moisture absorption under normal conditions does
not affect heater efficiency or life.
The minimum required resistance value is 1.0M Ohms for full power voltage
operation. However, heating elements with a moisture barrier sealant such as RTV
silicone or epoxy potting will require a minimum value of 5.0M Ohms. Resistance
values should be measured with an Ohm meter by applying one lead to the
termination and the other to ground. When the heater does not meet the required
resistance value, the unit will have to be dried out prior to full power operation.
If the heater has 0.1M Ohms (100K Ohms), or better, but less than 1M Ohms, the
heater should be operated at half the rated voltage for 30 minutes to dissipate the
accumulated moisture. Disconnect the power after 30 minutes and check the
resistance. An alternative to applying voltage is to manually dry the heaters in an
oven at 300F for 4 hours then check its resistance again.
If the resistance is higher than it was originally, repeat the process until the value
reaches the minimum requirement of 1M Ohms. The heater can then be operated at
full rated voltage.
A resistance reading of 0.0 megohms, or a reading lower than originally measured,
indicates the heater has absorbed a considerable amount of moisture. Remove the
wires and jumper straps from the element as shown in Heating Element
Replacement section of this manual and check element resistance to ground. After
drying, reassemble the element in reverse order.

Pump and Motor Assemblies




Two different types of motors are used: one uses sealed bearings and the other ball
bearings. Sealed bearings require no maintenance. For ball bearing motors,
lubricate fittings periodically (usually every 6 to 12 months for normal
applications).

Pumps - replace seals and gaskets as required. See Appendix A.

Seal life is very difficult to estimate due to a variety of controlled and uncontrolled
conditions the seal operates in. Pump seals by nature will weep some even when
new.

The mechanical seal faces cannot be permitted to be in contact in a dry


environment. Some liquid must pass between the rotating and stationary face in
order to minimize friction and to carry away the heat generated. If this leakage
evaporates when reaching the atmosphere, then there is no visible leakage. If it
doesnt, leakage in the order of 10 drops per day might be the best achievable.
Some seal manufacturers rely on high face loading to minimize leakage but at the
expense of seal longevity. Others do the opposite, which provides longer life but
greater leakage.
Field installation of the seals is not as exact a procedure as is possible when this is
done in a factory environment with experienced assemblers. It is possible to
experience some minor leakage on field installed seals. Excessive leakage can also
be an early indication of seal failure, warning of the need for impending
maintenance. Before installing, repairing, or performing maintenance on pumps,
read and understand the pumps instructions completely. Undersized or excessively
long suction lines can cause excessive vacuum on the seal and cause leakage from
the seal. Please see page 2-2.

System Mounting


Excessive vibration may cause mounting bolts to loosen. Periodically check and
tighten all mounting bolts.

To allow air to escape, the system must be mounted with the outlet of the tank at the
top of the system.

Section 4 System Maintenance & Troubleshooting

Troubleshooting


The Fluid Does Not Heat


Probable Causes:
No electrical power
Blown fuse
Problem with the flow switch
Problem with the thermostat
Problem with the heating element
Recommended Repairs:
Electrical Power - Make sure that the control boxs ON/OFF switch is in the
ON position. Observe the power light on the control box. If the power light is
not on, make sure that the main power supply and the 24 V supply are ON. If
the power supplies are ON but the power light on the control box is OFF,
troubleshoot the electrical system.
Fuses - Inspect the fuses for the main power supply. Inspect the fuses in the
control box. Replace any blown fuse. If the fuse is blown again, troubleshoot
the electrical system.
Flow Switch - If the flow switch is not operating properly, the flow switch can
improperly remove the power supply from the heating element.
Make sure that the flow switch is operating correctly. Inspect the flow switch
and clean the flow switch. For instructions, refer to page 4-3. Replace the flow
switch if necessary.
Thermostat - The thermostats contactor is normally open. If the temperature is
less than the thermostats rating, the thermostats contactor closes in order to
energize the heating element. If the temperature becomes greater than the
thermostats rating, the thermostat opens again.
To verify whether there is a problem with the thermostat, measure the
thermostats resistance at a temperature that is less than the thermostats closing
temperature. If the resistance is greater than 200,000 ohms, the contactor is
open.
Continue to measure the thermostats resistance and increase the temperature to
the thermostats closing temperature. If the resistance is less than 5 ohms, the
contactor is closed.
Continue to measure the thermostats resistance and increase the temperature to
the thermostats opening temperature. If the resistance is greater than 200,000
ohms, the contactor is open.
For the thermostats operating temperatures, refer to page 3-9. If the thermostat
fails to operate correctly, replace the thermostat.

Section 4 System Maintenance & Troubleshooting

4-5

Heating Element - Deposits and moisture will reduce the heating elements
efficiency. Clean the heating element and check the heating element for a short
circuit to ground. For instructions, refer to page 3-6.


The Flow of Fluid is Inadequate


Probable Causes:
Closed ball valves
Air leaks in the suction side
Obstruction in the supply lines and/or the return lines
The pump is not primed.
Incorrect pump rotation
No electrical power
Blown fuse
Problem with the flow switch
Pump cavitation
Improper impeller clearance or improper assembly
Recommended Repairs:
Ball Valves - If the ball valves are closed, the heater is isolated from the
engines fluid. Open the ball valves.
Air Leaks - Inspect the lines and the fittings on the suction side of the pump.
Repair any leaks. Make sure that the fittings are secure.
Obstruction in the Lines - Restriction of the suction lines will not allow the
pump to fill properly. Restriction of the return lines causes excessive resistance
to the pumping. Inspect the lines for obstructions and remove any restriction.
Pump Priming - An air pocket in the inlet side of the pump will prevent the
pump from operating properly. Open a port in the output side of the pump and
operate the pump for a few seconds in order to purge the air. When fluid
appears at the port, close the port.
Pump Rotation - Compare the pump rotation to the directional arrow on the
housing. If the rotation is incorrect, switch any two of the three wires from the
main power supply at the control box.
Electrical Power - Make sure that the control boxs ON/OFF switch is in the
ON position. Observe the power light on the control box.
If the power light is not on, make sure that the main power supply and the 24V
supply are ON.
If the power supplies are ON but the power light on the control box is OFF,
troubleshoot the electrical system.
Fuses - Inspect the fuses for the main power supply. Inspect the fuses in the
control box. Replace any blown fuse. If the fuse is blown again, troubleshoot
the electrical system.

Section 4 System Maintenance & Troubleshooting

4-6

Flow Switch - If there is a problem with the flow switch, the flow switch can
improperly activate the time delay relay and the power supply will be removed
from the pump motor.
Make sure that the flow switch is operating correctly. Inspect the flow switch
and clean the flow switch. For instructions, refer to page 4-3. Replace the flow
switch if necessary.


The Pump Motor is Overheating


Probable Causes:
Obstruction in the supply lines and/or return lines
Inadequate fluid flow
Problem with the main power supply
Problem with a thermostat
Problem with the motors protective switch
Problem with the pump shaft or the motors bearing
Oil Viscosity
Recommended Repairs:
Obstruction in the Lines - Restriction of the suction lines and/or the return
lines causes excessive resistance to the pumping. The pump motor will work too
hard and the motor will overheat. Inspect the lines for obstructions and remove
any restriction.
Fluid Flow - The pump is partially cooled and lubricated by the fluid flow. An
inadequate fluid flow can result in overheating of the pump motor. If a problem
with the fluid flow is suspected, refer to The Flow of Fluid is Inadequate.
Main Power Supply - The pump motor must have the correct voltage and
frequency. Otherwise, the motor will attempt to compensate for the inadequate
supply and the motor will overheat. Check the quality of the main power supply
and compare the data to the motors rating. Make sure that the main power
supply is correct.
Thermostat - The thermostats contactor is normally open. If the temperature is
less than the thermostats rating, the thermostats contactor closes in order to
energize the heating element. If the temperature becomes greater than the
thermostats rating, the thermostat opens again.
To verify whether there is a problem with the thermostat, measure the
thermostats resistance at a temperature that is less than the thermostats closing
temperature. If the resistance is greater than 200,000 ohms, the contactor is
open.
Continue to measure the thermostats resistance and increase the temperature to
the thermostats closing temperature. If the resistance is less than 5 ohms, the
contactor is closed.

Section 4 System Maintenance & Troubleshooting

4-7

Continue to measure the thermostats resistance and increase the temperature to


the thermostats opening temperature. If the resistance is greater than 200,000
ohms, the contactor is open.
For the thermostats operating temperatures, refer to page 3-9. If the thermostat
fails to operate correctly, replace the thermostat.
Motors Protective Switch - If there is a problem with the motors protective
switch, the switch can incorrectly remove power from the pump motor.
Exchange the switch with a switch that is known to be good.
Pump Shaft or Motor Bearing - A worn pump shaft and/or a worn motor
bearing will result in overheating. Inspect the parts for wear. Make the
necessary repairs.
Oil Viscosity Viscosity of oil is too thick causing the motor to over-work. The
motor protective switch over heats and trips out. All oil systems are designed to
maintain warm oil takeover. They are not designed to take over on a cold oil
start-up.


The Pumps Seal is Leaking


Probable Causes:
Improper assembly
Damaged seal
Contaminated fluid
High fluid temperature
Dry operation
Recommended Repairs:
Damaged Seal - The seal is worn over time. The seal will eventually become
damaged from use. Replace the seal. For instructions on disassembly and
assembly of the pump, refer to pump vendor information in Appendix.
Contaminated Fluid - Abrasive material and/or corrosive chemicals in the
fluid will damage the seal. Other moving parts can also be damaged. Obtain an
analysis of the fluid. Replace the fluid, if necessary. Refer to the engines
Operation and Maintenance Manual. Replace the seal. For instructions on
disassembly and assembly of the pump, refer to pump vendor information in
Appendix.
High Fluid Temperature - If the temperature of the fluid is too high, there is
probably a problem with the thermostat.
The thermostats contactor is normally open. If the temperature is less than the
thermostats rating, the thermostats contactor closes in order to energize the
heating element. If the temperature becomes greater than the thermostats
rating, the thermostat opens again.
To verify whether there is a problem with the thermostat, measure the
thermostats resistance at a temperature that is less than the thermostats closing

temperature. If the resistance is greater than 200,000 ohms, the contactor is


open.
Continue to measure the thermostats resistance and increase the temperature to
the thermostats closing temperature. If the resistance is less than 5 ohms, the
contactor is closed.
Continue to measure the thermostats resistance and increase the temperature to
the thermostats opening temperature. If the resistance is greater than 200,000
ohms, the contactor is open.
For the thermostats operating temperatures, refer to page 3-9. If the thermostat
fails to operate correctly, replace the thermostat.
Dry Operation - The pump is partially cooled and lubricated by the fluid flow.
A lack of fluid or an inadequate fluid flow can result in overheating of the
pump. This can damage the seal and the pumps moving parts. If a problem with

Description
Progressive Equipment Incorporated is
proud to announce the release of the
new DLM-926-PM Dual Zone Deliron
Lubrication Monitor for installation
directly into the 4-1/2 cutout in your
Control Panel.
The DLM-926-PM is a digital micro
processor control device specifically
designed to protect Gas Compressors
from damage due to loss of lubrication.
Lubrication to the Engine/Compressor
flows through a Divider Block Type
Lubrication System forcing an internal
piston to cycle back and forth.
By installing a Proximity Switch on one
of the Metering Elements on each of the
Master Divider Blocks, the back and
forth movement of the pistons result in
an On/Off state which the DLM-926-PM
continuously analyzes.

Model DLM-926-PM (Part No. 000551)

INSTALLATION AND ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURE

1. Loosen all (2) Allen head set screws (A) on switch housing (B) and remove
magnet housing (C). Do not remove magnet, spring, and spacer from
magnet housing.
2. Remove end plug (D) from divider valve where proximity switch will be
installed. Proximity switch can be installed on any available divider valve
section.
3. Screw magnet housing (C) into end of divider valve. Torque to 15 foot
pounds max. Be sure 0-ring or metal gasket (F) is in place on magnet
housing (C) if required.
4. Slide switch housing (B) all the way onto magnet housing (C). Connect
ohmmeter to yellow switch leads. Do not tighten set screws at this time.
5.To properly adjust switch housing (B), divider valve assembly (G) must be
cycling so magnet (H) is moving back and forth. This can be achieved with
lubrication system functioning or by manually pumping clean oil through
divider valve assembly with a hand pump.
6. If a cycle is not detected, adjustment is made by sliding switch housing
(B) out in 1/16" increments. Continuity meter connected to yellow wires will
indicate a switch closure. Adjust 1/16" out until correct adjustment is
confirmed. Torque set screws to 25 inch pounds max.
7. Use 10 to 12 inches of flexible conduit on the switch housing for ease of
adjustment or maintenance. All conduit and connections should be
appropriate for area classification. CAUTION: Conduit and fittings must be
supported to avoid bending magnet assembly.

TYPICAL INSTALLATION

Mounting (all LM300 Series models)

Mounting with Universal Bracket

NOTE: Mount the LM300 series level maintainers as close as possible


to the crankcase. Also, excessive vibration can cause overfill. Be sure
mounting brackets are supported.
The following instructions are based on the usage of the pipe and universal
mounting brackets shown above.

Deck Mounting

The universal bracket has two mounting methods: deck mounting and
pan mounting.
1. Install the universal bracket to the deck as shown in Figure 2A with two
flat washers and two 3/8 inch (10 mm) diameter bolts (not supplied).

Pipe Bracket Mounting

1. Mount a nominal 1/2 inch (21 mm) diameter pipe to the deck of the engine.
2. Install the pipe bracket to the LM300 using two 3/8-16 UNC x 1 inch
bolts supplied. See Figure 1A.
3. Slip the LM300 onto the pipe and install the two adjustment bolts. Each
adjustment bolt consists of a 3/8-16 UNC x 1 inch bolt and two nuts. See
Figure 1B. DO NOT tighten the adjustment screws too tightly because
you will have to adjust the LM300 later in the installation process.

will have to adjust the LM300 later in the installation process.
3. If space between the crankcase and mounting bracket is narrow, install
the universal mounting bracket to the LM300 before installing to the
crankcase oil pan.

Connecting Fittings and Hoses


The following instructions are for all LM300 series level maintainers.
All steps that reference oil inlet or oil supply tank DO NOT apply to
non-level-maintaining models. Also, these instructions are based on the
Murphy optional hose kit described on page 1. If you did not order the
optional hose kit, gather the hoses, clamps and fittings as specified in
the optional hose kit.
1. Install the LM300 fittings in their proper locations. NOTE: Apply a
sealant such as teflon, to all threaded connections.
2. Attach the 1 inch (25 mm) diameter, flexible monitoring hose to the
crankcase and the monitoring port on the LM300. See Figure 4.
CAUTION: The hose must slope slightly downward from the LM300
and MUST NOT have any droop or low spots.
NOTE: If the drain plug on the crankcase
is used for the connection, we
recommend installation of a tee to

valve on the oil supply tank. See Figure 5. For
models LM300 thru LM305 recommended
minimum mounting of the oil supply
Oil Inlet
tank above the LM is 4 ft. (1.2m);
Hose
maximum 15 ft. (4.6m). The
hose must maintain a
downward slope and not have
low spots or droops.
Maximum head pressure
rating using standard 1/4 in. (6
mm) orifice is 15 ft. (4.6
meters). See Flow Rate test on
page 1 for additional orifice pressure
ratings.
Figure 5
3. Before filling the supply tank with
oil, be sure the tank is clean and dry andthe shutoff valve is closed.
Also, be sure all hoses and clamps are tight. Fill the tank with CLEAN
oil.

WARNING: Overfill condition can be caused by excessive


inlet pressure, (maximum inlet pressure depends on orifice),
and/or improper vent to crankcase installation.
See Flow Rate Test on page 1 for maximum pressure.
4. After oil supply tank is full, open the shutoff valve.
Next, make the proper electrical connections for the application. See
contact ratings on page 1 and schematics on page 4.

Switch Test (switch models only)


To test the shutdown and/or alarm functions
perform the following:
1. Unscrew protective boot from test knob.
IMPORTANT: Always replace boot after
testing.
2. Turn the test knob 1/4 turn to the right
(clockwise), for low test indication (Figure 6).
Figure 6
3. Turn the knob 1/4 turn to the left
(counterclockwise), for high test indication. DO NOT FORCE
THE TEST KNOB TO TURN.
NOTE: After the engine shuts down, you will notice that the oil in the
sight gauge glass will rise above normal running level, possibly
showing an overfill condition. This is a result of drain-back to the
engine crankcase and it is normal. Therefore, on models LM302 and
LM303 it may be necessary to wire the high level shutdowns into a
class B or C (bypass until first time safe) lockout, so as to allow a
permissive start. After the engine is re-started the level will pull down
to the normal running level and the shutdown features will be active. A
modulating valve (Thumb-Valve) in the level maintaining models
will allow oil usage to be made-up continuously during operation.

Integrated Governor Throttle Body (Mechanical Assembly)


1302-000-04

091205

The IGTB is a combination of a throttle and an electronic governor, therefore integrated governor
throttle body or IGTB. Its function is to maintain an established RPM set point through out the load
range of the engine.
Note: the throttle is not a shut off valve. There is enough clearance between the body and the throttle plate
to allow the engine to run under certain conditions at less than rated idle RPM when the governor is not
powered.
As shown in Figure 1, the governor measures the RPM with a magnetic pick up and compares it to the set
point RPM supplied by the pressure transducer.

When the set point is changed to an increased value the rate of


acceleration to that value is 6 RPM/second.
When the set point is changed to a decreased value the rate of
deceleration is 12 RPM/second.
An attained RPM set point is maintained by PID values for best
response to changes in load.

The governor has an operating voltage range of 18 to 28 Vdc with a nominal voltage of 24V. The
governor consumes 32W maximum power at a peak current of 1.3A (24V) assuming 4 ohms stator
resistance at 77F.
Its operating temperature range is -40F to 221F.
Protect the system with a 6A fuse in the voltage supply line.
The governor will not consume power when the engine is stopped. However, if the engine will be out of
service for an extended time, it is best to disconnect the input power.

NOTE
The governor should not be used for engine shutdown.
Ground the ignition system and shut in the fuel supply
to assure engine shutdown.

IGTB Operation
and Problem Diagnostics
TP 1300-000 r2

The governors tuning values (gain, reset, etc.) are optimized for conventional compressor RPM control
operations, and step load operations. The values are fixed, and are not field adjustable. Ring gear tooth count
and RPM set point vs set point voltage can be altered by use of a downloadable file from Woodward, a data
link wiring harness (p/n A-4669), and a PCs RS-232 port. Instructions accompany the A-4669 data link
wiring harness.
When the engine is operating at rated load and speed, adjust the fuel supply pressure to be 4 to 6 psig above
the fuel pressure downstream of the governor. Assure that the engine will idle without load at that pressure
setting. If it does not, reduce the supply pressure slightly so that no load, idle RPM can be achieved.
Problem Diagnostics
Use the throttles fuel supply pressure gauge and fuel outlet pressure gauge to help analyze governor
performance. For example, notice the outlet pressure at engine light off, or the outlet pressure at typical
operating conditions. (Be certain that the isolation/dampening valves are adjusted for credible readings.)
When performing electrical diagnostics, use a digital voltmeter connected to the governors wiring harness
plug. The appropriate pin connections are listed in the table below, and on the wiring harness assembly
drawing. All voltages will be Vdc. If your voltmeter does not have an RMS function to measure the MPU
signal level, use Vac for that signal only. (Be certain that the engines ignition will be grounded, and the fuel
supply will be shut in for these tests.)
Problem
Engine does not start

Possible Cause
Power not applied
MPU gap too large
MPU signal connection
open
Stuck throttle shaft

Engine starts, but shuts down.

MPU gap too large

Engine starts, but does not accelerate to


idle RPM

Inadequate electrical
power

Engine starts and runs, but is unstable

Unable to attain rated RPM with a slight


load.

Ignition misfire
Precombustion Chamber

Unable to develop full load RPM


Unable to idle at no load

Low fuel pressure


High fuel pressure

Suggested Test/Correction
Disconnect harness from governor. Test for
+24V between plug socket # 1 and # 5.
Rotate engine manually to check for 0.020 to
0.030 gap.
Disconnect harness from governor. Reset the
annunciator. Test for at least 2 Vrms between
pin 11 and pin 3 during cranking.
Remove the governor. Move throttle by hand.
Assess smoothness, friction, and return spring
force.
Rotate engine manually to check for 0.020 to
0.030 gap.
Assure that 18-28Vdc is supplied to governor
pin connections #1 (+Vdc) and #5 (Vdc).
Manually switch off governor power. Then
switch it on, and restart the engine. If RPM
control does not occur, replace the governor.
Troubleshoot the ignition system
Check for normal PCC fuel pressure, and
fouled or stuck check valves
Using combustion pressure measurement,
balance the firing pressures.
A 3-15 psig input signal should produce a 1.85vdc output signal. Apply 15 psig to the
transducer input. If 5vdc is not measured
between plugs pin 8 (Vdc+) and pin 3 (Vdc-),
replace the transducer.
Increase the fuel supply pressure
Decrease the fuel supply pressure

NOTE
The governor should not be used for engine shutdown.
Ground the ignition system and shut in the fuel supply
to assure engine shutdown.
