440 VMC COMPRESSORS
MODERNIZING 1200 RPM COMPRESSORS
Pages 24 through 31 pertain to replacement parts
for high speed compressors having serial numbers
below 9999. These redesigned replacement parts
are incorporated on all high speed compressors
having serial numbers 3638 and above. The
remaining repair parts pages apply to all existing
high speed 440 VMC compressors.
If it is desired to convert an existing high speed
440 VMC compressor having a serial number
below 3638 to the latest design arrangement, kits
listed below are offered, depending upon the
particular compressor involved. It is
recommended, though not mandatory, that the old
parts be replaced by these kits containing the
latest design parts when making a major parts
replacement or general overhaul of the
compressor.
It is also recommended that all cylinders be
converted at one time to avoid unnecessary
complications when stocking and ordering future
replacement parts. It will not impair the
performance of the machine if a combination of
converted and unconverted cylinders exist in one
machine; however, care must be exercised
thereafter in ordering the proper replacement parts
for each cylinder.
Purchasing these conversion parts in kit form will
result in some savings, as opposed to the
purchasing of former style, high speed
replacement parts individually. Refer to the Home
Office for prices on these conversion kits. Include
all information (especially serial number) regarding
the compressor to be converted. Also include
correct part number for kit as listed below.
