ASTM F541 (available atwww.astm.org). Standard lifting lugs and bolting may also be
replaced with materials more suitable for low temperatures. Contact Ariel for more informa-
tion.
Setting the Compressor
1. Be sure the skid is level.
2. Move the compressor into place on the skid.
3. Level stationary compressors to Table 2-1 requirements. For compressors sub-
ject to transient motion on ships or offshore platforms, level compressors to
table requirements when at rest. Be sure the pre-grout alignment is relatively
close so that the equipment movement will be minimal and within the bolting,
foot, push pads or grout box allowance.
4. Grout as required and allow grout to set.
With the compressor cylinders mounted but unsupported and with no piping or pulsation
damping bottles attached, tighten the frame foot hold down bolting to skid at full fastener
torque. Refer to Ariel ER-26, Appendix A in the Ariel Packager’s Standards for proper frame
foot torque values.
CAUTION: When lifting a compressor designed for lifting lugs, use ONLY Ariel provided or
approved lugs. Be sure the lugs are held In place with the proper grade of cap screws, and
properly tightened. Lifting cable spreaders are required perpendicular to crankshaft axis.
Be sure the crane capacity is adequate.
