Air Compressor Specifications
| Lubrication | THE FACTORY LUBRICATES ALL MOVING SEALS WITH SUPPLIED LUBRICANT. UNDER NORMAL CONDITIONS THIS WILL LAST THROUGH MILLIONS OF CYCLES. HOWEVER, UNDER CONDITIONS OF WET AIR, HIGH FLOWS, OR LIGHT OIL FROM A LUBRICATOR SOMEWHERE IN THE CIRCUIT, MOISTURE CAN GET INTO THE DIAL-AIR™ FLOW CONTROLLER AND THE LUBRICATION CAN BE WASHED OUT. PROPER LUBRICATION OF DIAL-AIR™ FLOW CONTROLLERS IS ABSOLUTELY ESSENTIAL. |

Troubleshooting
3Symptoms & remedies
| Symptom | Remedy |
|---|---|
| Loss of Calibration. | Disassemble flow controller and lubricate seals with supplied lubricant. If supplied lubricant is not available, use a heavy grease such as Magnalube-G®, Lubriplate, or Molykote; however, expect “wash out” of these lubricants much sooner. Under no conditions should you use oil as a lubricant. |
| Flow Controller cannot attain high secondary pressures. | Disassemble flow controller and lubricate seals with supplied lubricant. If supplied lubricant is not available, use a heavy grease such as Magnalube-G®, Lubriplate, or Molykote; however, expect “wash out” of these lubricants much sooner. Under no conditions should you use oil as a lubricant. |
| Erratic secondary pressures. | Disassemble flow controller and lubricate seals with supplied lubricant. If supplied lubricant is not available, use a heavy grease such as Magnalube-G®, Lubriplate, or Molykote; however, expect “wash out” of these lubricants much sooner. Under no conditions should you use oil as a lubricant. |
