Oil Reservoirs

Maximum Working Pressure - 450 psig

Oil reservoirs are designed to hold excess oil in parallel compressor systems. The oil is a result of varying system loads and defrost cycles. Install the oil reservoir between the oil separator and oil regulators. There must be a vent valve installed on the reservoir to allow for proper oil pressure.

The oil reservoir includes the following connections:

• 3/4"-16 spud connection for 3/8" flare swivel valves
• 3/8" flare connection for pressure vent valve

Each reservoir is supplied with two 3/8" flare swivel valves. All models are manufactured with sight glasses for oil level viewing.

Selection of the oil reservoir size is a matter of individual preference:

• Up to 4 compressors—Use the 2 gallon reservoir
• 4 to 6 compressors—Use the 3 gallon reservoir
• 6 or more compressors—Use the 4 gallon reservoir

These are general guidelines and should be verified by the systems' manufacturer or engineer. For systems with extremely long line runs, it is always best to use the 4 gallon model.
