Hi, a green newbie requiring assistance,
We are responsible for piston compressors and high speed vane type compressors on the gas recovery refrigeration on a gas to plastic plant.
Question is;
" what is the 'allowable' water level in ppms the mineral oil lubricant in use?"
Our test results came back as 469 ppm and we resampled a day later and the water was 68 ppm, sampling proceddure and condition exactely the same.
The concern is water was not detected in previous analysis causing other questions of
"Can the system conceal water and release it later?"
"Is there any chemical reaction in the system that could create water?"
Thanks in advance for any assitance you can give
Regards
Rob S
