Supporting Evidence
• Is flow balance greater than 1.05?• Does the trend of a particular suction valve temperature indicate a rise compared to the other suction valve covers?• Does valve cover acceleration/ultrasonic show high amplitude when suction valves are closed?
Supporting Evidence
• Is flow balance less than 0.95?• Does the trend of a discharge valve temperature indicate a rise compared to the other discharge valve covers?• Does valve cover acceleration/ultrasonic show high amplitude when discharge vavles are closed?

Supporting Evidence
• Is flow balance on both chambers greater than 1.05?• Is discharge temperature elevated compared to adiabatic discharge temperature?• Does acceleration/ultrasonic show high amplitudes when chamber pressures different and low amplitudes when chamber pressures are equal?

2. Install the guiding stud of the recip multi-event wheel.
3. Slide the recip multi-event wheel over the guiding stud and align the falling edge of the divided notch with the Keyphasor. The second narrow notch should trail the first one in the direction of rotation. Loosely install 3/8 – 24 bolts to hold the wheel in place.

4. You can precisely align the edge by measuring the voltage from the Keyphasor probe-proximitor combination when the probe is located over the notch, and then when it is over the protrusion. Rotate the wheel to obtain the minimum negative Keyphasor voltage over the protrusion and record this value.
5. Rotate the wheel to obtain the maximum negative Keyphasor voltage over the notch and record this value. Average the two voltage values to get the precise edge value.
6. Rotate the wheel back to the edge. When the Keyphasor output equals the calculated halfway value, secure the wheel into place
Maximum Allowable Continuous Combined Rod Load (MACCRL) A value determined by the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) based ondesign limits of the various components in the compressor frame and the running gear (bearings, crankshaft, connecting rod, crosshead assembly, zpiston rod, piston assembly).
Maximum Allowable Continuous Gas Load (MACGL) A value determined by the OEM based on the design limits of the static components (frame, distance piece, cylinder, and bolting).
Rod Reversal
The shortest distance, measured in degrees of crank revolution, between each change in sign of force in the combined rod-loading curve.

Typical Pressure Versus Displaced Volume
AA
A
A typical indicated cylinderpressure curve will have somepressure fluctuation when thesuction and discharge valvesare opened. The areas labelled“A” and indicated by bracesshow these pressurefluctuations. When the valvesare closed, the pressure showsa smooth line.
A pressure transducer installation suffering from channel resonance will showpressure fluctuations whenthe suction and dischargevalves are closed as well aswhen the valves are opened. The frequency of this resonanceremains nominally constant throughout the cycle.
