Design Features
Superior WH style cylinders are precision machined from ductile iron or forged steel for
optimum strength under high pressure conditions. All cylinders have large suction and
discharge nozzles and streamlined internal gas passages for reduced pressure drops through
the cylinder, Each cylinder is pressure tested to one-and-one-half times its maximum,
allowable working pressure (MAWD). API non-reversible, non-interchangeable compressor
valves are standard.
A broad range of cylinders provides flexibility in changing field conditions anda choice of
MH, WH, W7, or WG compressor frames allows Superior to meet specific application needs.
A variety of unloading devices, including spacers, variable volume pockets, and fixed head
pockets, as well asa minimum clearance head, give maximum capacity control.

Note:
(1) Sour gas units having greater than 2% H,S and greater than 5% CO, should be
trimmed per Level 2-1P
(2) For lubricated compression units operating below 400 psig suction pressure or with,
pressure/CO, concentration parameters to the left of the curve in Figure 1, no special
trim is required. All metal gaskets should be soft iron or aluminum and o-rings should
be nitrile, neoprene, or viton, depending on operating conditions.
(3) Corrosion will not bea problem in dry CO..
(4) For non-lubricated compression jobs, special trim will be required for any CO,
concentration above 2%,
(5) Lubricated units having CO, levels falling to the left of the curve in Figure | should
be judged on an individual basis. If the gas is known to be extremely dirty, or if the
unit is designed to operate with more than the normal number of stopsand starts or
complex unloading, then special trim may be necessary at lower CO, concentrations
and pressures.

Comments and Exceptions to
API Specification TIP for Superior MH,
WH, W7, WG, & RAM Compressors
Introduction
The comments and exceptions in this document apply to API Specification 11P, Second
Edition, November 1, 1989 (reaffirmed September 1999) for current production Superior MH,
WH, WG, and Ram compressors.
The scope of Specification 119 addresses “packager supplied” reciprocating compressors,
which includes the driver, skid, piping, controls, and other systems, Cooper Superior’ scope
of supply is the compressor and documentation applying directly to the compressor.
‘Therefore, this document only addresses those portions of 11P which apply specifically to
the compressor.
Superior compressors generally comply with IP The majority of items in this document are
e@ clarifying comments rather than exceptions, When exceptions ate taken they are supported,
by along history of successful performance.
Section 1- General
12 Data Sheets. The API Packaged Compressor Data Sheets Appendixes D and E) are not
used, unless specifically tequestexl, The compressor information referenced in these
sheets is available in the compressor Sales Release document and Compressor Frame
and Cylinder Technical Data Books. Technical information that varies between
applications, such as unbalanced forces and lubrication requirements, is given to the
packager on separate forms. Other data can be provided as required,
1102 Combined Rod Loading, Superior literature refers to this as Net Rod Load
110.14 Data Book, The Compressor Frameand Cylinder Technical Data Books do contain data
sheets, individual frame and cylinder plan drawings, and other technical data. The
books do not include API Data Sheets (see 1.2), Instructions and parts lists are
included in the Superior Instruction Manual, which isalso available to the purchaser,

pressure drops are estimated (see 555).
Performance Calculations. Gas characteristic values are listed in the Sales Release
document.
Cylinder Bolting. Although most fasteners comply with specified thread engage-
‘ment of 1-1/2 times the diameter, there can be fasteners with slightly less engage-
ment. The lesser depth is sometimes required in ordet to avoid interference with
other fasteners or internal features.
Piston and Rod Locking. Most Superior MH, WH, WG cylinders use multiple
through-bolts to secure the piston to the piston rod flange. Ram cylinders use a
piston with a through rod and lock nut. In either case the fastener preload is,
sufficient for locking them in place. These practices have proven to be very successful,
Distance Pieces/Design. Type 2 distance pieces are not available for the Ram or
‘with certain cylinders on the MH and WH compressor frames. The Compressor
inder Technical Data Book for the MH, WH, and WG compressors specifies the
cylinders on which the Type 2 distances pieces are available. Type 3 distances pieces,
are available in all cases.
Explosion Relief Doors. Relief valves are available on the top cover but not on
distance piece covers.
Packing Cases and Pressure Packing/Type. Inconnel garter springs are also used.
Frame Lubrication/Pressurized System. For the Ram compressor the prelube
pump is optional and there are no gages on the oil filter intet and outlet, Both are
standard on other compressor models,
Cylinder Lubrication. Pump to point systems are not used, except when necessi
tated by unusual circumstances.
2.12.2. Oil Level Control. An oil level control is not applicable to the lubricator reservoir.
Lubricating oil is drawn from the compressor frame or a separate supply tank, not
the lubricator oil reservoir.
2.1312 Steel Heads. Steel cylinders rated for operation at 3200 psi (MWP) or Jess have
ductile iron heads.

Comments And Exceptions To
API 618, 4th Edition, For Superior MH,
WH, W7, WG & RAM Compressors
Introduction
API618/4th Edition June 1995 is a specification covering “requirements for reciprocating
‘compressors and their drivers used in the petroleum, chemical and gas industry services for
handling process air or gas.” These applications are normally outside of the natural gas
industry and are predominantly associated with process gases such as hydrogen, ammonia,
carbon dioxide, etc.
The compressors used in these refinery and process applications are designed and manufac-
tured in accordance with AP1618, are low to moderate speed compressors in the range of 300
450 rpm and are normally driven by electric motors or steam turbine drivers used in
refineries and process plants.
Compressors complying with API 618.are traditionally engineered from the ground up for
the specific job application and typical delivery cycles are 10-12 months from receipt of
order.
Paragraph 1.1 of API 618 specifically excludes gas engine and steam engine drivers from
coverage by API 618 and goes on to say that “Requirements for packaged high-speed recipro-
cating compressors for oil and gas production services are covered in API Specification IP.”
ADJ Specification 11P covers requirements for “a packager supplied, designed and fabricated,
skid-mounted, reciprocating, ... compressor .. and its prime movers used in oil and gas
production services.” Compressors intended for refinery or petroleum industries as covered
by API618 are specifically excluded from API IP.
The requirements of API LIP are specifically tailored to the needs of the natural gas produc-
tion and transmission industries and allow the incorporation of manufacturers’ standard
‘compressor frame and cylinder configurations, which are available within lead times of 20-
30 weeks,
Summary
+ API618 isnot specifically applicable to compression equipment in the natural gas produc-
tion industry—API IP is.
= Cooper Energy Services (2/00)
Page 1-21SUPERION'
+ Superior compressorsare tailored primarily to the natural gas production and trans-
mission industries, and thus conform more closely to the specifications of API IIP rather
than API 618,
«* Superior strives to comply with API 618 to the extent that it does not compromise our
objectives of short delivery lead times and low cost as compared to fully compliant API
618 equipment. The following comments and exceptions define those areas where
‘Superior equipment or documentation deviates from API618.
General
Superior’s primary scope of supply is the compressor, gas engine driver (if applicable), and
information directly related to this equipment. Other equipment, services, and information
is typically provided through a third party which contracts directly with the purchaser or
Superior. This company can be a distributor, packager, or engineering company. API
specification applying to services not provided Superior must be reviewed and confirmed by
the contractor.
Technically, Superior compressors are not APL 618 compressors, but there is some flexibility
the scope of supply that often allows the equipment to meet many of the customer's API
618 goals, That flexi
lity falls into four categories:
+ Standard options which may be added to the basic equipment at an established price;
+ Special options which are designed and manufactured for a specific application, Due to
their limited applicability, lead times will be extended and pricing will be substantially
higher than the base equipment or standard options;
\dard documentation is information that can be readily provided upon request;
+ Special documentation must be created specifically for the order. Pricing will be estab-
lished as required.
Although Superior attempts to meet as many of the purchaser's special requirements as
possible, any request outside of the standard equipment or information offering adds to the
time and cost involved in the project. Accordingly, special requests should be limited to
those items that are absolutely necessary.
Standard documentation for Superior equipment is not as extensive as outlined in API 618,
Appendix A or F etc. It is typically limited to the Sales Release (which includes equipment
identification, customer specifications, and performance), separate frame and cylinder
outline drawings, performance curves, Technical Data Manuals, and Instruction Manuals/
Parts Lists.
1 Cooper Energy Services (2700)
Page 1-22Compressor Cylinder
Since Superior does not routinely provide information in the API618 format, the customer
should discuss specifi
‘documentation needs with their Cooper-Superior representative.
All comments and exceptions apply to the MH, WH, W7
unless noted otherwise,
and RAM compressor models
Section 1- General
1427 Superior rated power is from cylinder suction to the cylinder discharge flange.
Section 2 — Basic Design
211 Three years of uninterrupted operation is not typical for high speed compressors.
Parts such as valve plates, springs, and piston rings require service more frequently.
212 Forgiven operating conditions, Superior compressors have a natural sound pressure
level (SPL), This SPL is less than that from a gas engine driver, and frequently less
than the SPL of the gas piping. When SPL. control is required itis best accomplished
by insulating the piping, equipment building, or other methods. This s typically
contracted through a third party engineering service.
2,11 Foundation and piping design are not within Superior’s scope of supply. Data, such as
base and bolt pattern drawings, equipment weights and unbalanced forces can be
provided to the packager or foundation contractor as required.
2.115 Performance software is set up to report volume flow in standard (rather than inlet)
million cubic feet per day: Although the standard typically used is 147 psi and 60°F,
it could be any required basis.
Superior normally does not use API 618 formatted data sheets to convey this
information unless specifically requested to do so, The information required by this
paragraph is normally published in the compressor and performance section of
Superior’ standard Sales Release.
231 Cylinders may operate up to 375 F rather than 300 Materials are selected based on
the customer’ application. This also applies to the note in paragraph 2.32.
251 Lateral vibration analysis is not performed. Experience has shown that the mass,
arrangement of the compressor and driver at normal operating speeds keep lateral
vibrations of the equipment within allowable limits. The packager or engineering.
‘company must take precautions to insure that the piping to and from the
compressor is properly supported to prevent vibration.
(2/00)
Page 1-23SUPERION™
NS
Torsional analysis is performed only when an electric motor is used as the driver.
Engine-compressor sets do not have the potential for torsional resonance found in
motor-compressor sets.
252 See2:
2621 Cold rod runouts are typically 0005 inch per inch of stroke and can be as much as
(0008 for large bore cylinders in new condition, Since Superior cylinders are used to
compress gases over a wide range of temperatures which affect piston ring growth
and piston position, the hot runout will vary. Piston ring wear will increase cold
runout. These traditional runouts have proven to work Well in Superior equipment.
Calculated cold runouts are not routinely provided, but can be upon request
Runout is not measured until the equipment is final assembled at the customer's
facility.
2622 Allowable flange loads are available upon request.
262.3 Linersare standard equipment in forged steel cylinder bodies (3.0 - 675.inch diam-
eter}. These are installed with an interference fit such that pinning or clamping is
not required
Liners are available as standard options for many ductile iron cylinders. These are
held in place by clamping only, which greatly simplifies liner replacement.
Although many liners are 3/8” thick, some are less than thi
cylinder liners is available upon request.
Information on specific
2624 Standard cylinders do not have 1/8" overbore capability. Cylinders are designed with
vvalves located as close to the cylinder bore as possible to minimize clearance volume,
2.62.5. Cylinder bore finish is 32 microinches rather than 8 - 24.
26.2.7 Cap screws are used in place of studs on the RAM and in some cases on the MH/WH/
W7 for ease of assembly /disassembly. Cap screws have proven to work well for these
applications.
Long studs are not provided.
2.62.10 Superior does not use this method for setting studs. An anaerobic adhesive is applied,
and the stud is driven to a specified projection height.
262.111 Fasteners are standard coarse thread series, so diameters greater than 1” will have
fewer than 8 threads per inch.

isavailable asa standard option.
Aircooled cylinders may be the only type available in selected bore sizes. Superior
can providea list of cylinders and types of cooling upon request
Gas flanges are not studded at the factory. Piping flanges are typically bolted to the
cylinders by the packager. Bolts, as opposed to studs, greatly simplify installatior
Ring type joints are used as standard for gas connections on forged steel cylinder
bodies rated above 3000 psi.
See 2.641. The customer shall specify when studs are required.
Some cylinder gas flanges require special rectangular or oval connections, Drawings
of face and bolt patterns are available upon request. Transition pieces are fabricated
by the packager or other subvendor.

In addition to unloading by the specified methods, capacity can also be controlled

In finger-type valve unloaders, actuating air and process gas that leak past their
respective seals may mix in the intermediate compartment that separates the Work-
ing parts of the actuator from the valve cap. Thisisa vented compartment. In the
event that both the air and gas seals fail and the vent line is restricted, it would be
possible for the two gases to mix in the actuator or compressor cylinder. This is
highly unlikely, but is theoretically possible.

Cylinder Lubrication
‘The complete lubrication system of the compressor may be conveniently divided into two
parts, of equal importance:
1. The system that provides lubrication to the frame running parts. (See the
Compressor Frame Technical Date Book.)
2, The system that provides lubrication for the cylinders.
Both systems can use oil from the frame sump. However, the cylinder system may be
requited to use oil from an external tank. Refer to Engineering Standards 1001 and 1002 for
flow rates and lube oil specifications. In the following paragraphs, we will deal with cylinder
lubrication only. Refer to the Compressor Frame Technical Data Book tor information about
frame lubrication
The Cylinder Lubrication System
The cylinder lubrication system consists of a force-feed lubricator and distribution block
system that provides lubrication for the cylinder walls and piston rod packing (see
illustration below fora typical setup)
‘The lubricator is directly driven off the compressor shaft through rightangle drive worm.
and spur gear set mounted on the lubricator box. Model S5-type pumps fed directly from the
crankcase or from an external tank are used to provide oil to the cylinders, (Note that oil
from the lubricator box is not used.) A packager-supplied external tank is used when the
requirements of the cylinder oil are different from those of the crankcase. A shutoff valve is
supplied to isolate the external tank and the lubricator box. From the crankcase or external
tank, the oil flows to the pumps and is then pumped to a common manifold feeding the
automatic divisioning system, The automatic divisioning system consists of a rupture
indicator (set for the job), a 25-micton strainer, a digital no-flow and counter, divider blocks
and pin indicators (shows which points are over-pressurized and sets accordingly). Fach.
lubrication point (cylinder and packing case) has a double ball check valve.
‘The lubricator box uses the same oil as in the frame or external tank to lubricate its cams
and bearings. The right-angle-drive gear on the lubricator box requires a gear ofl that meets
150 680 AGMA-8 (Exxon TK-680 Cylesstic is acceptable.
= Cooper Energy Services (2/00)
Page 1-35Lubricant Suggestions
In some cases it may be convenient or practical to use the same type of oil in the compressor
as is used in the compressor drive engine. This is permissible as long as the engine oil is of
proper viscosity. Superior recommends SAE 40 for all normal compressor operation and SAE
30 when ambient temperatures are below freezing. High pressures and many gases,
especially heavy and wet ones, require higher viscosity oil for the compressor cylinders.
Refer to Engineering Standards 1001 (contact Compressor Engineering) and 1002 (page 6-48)
for further information.
Ifstart-ups are to take place when the ambient temperature is below freezing, the pour point
of the oil must be low enough to insure flow to the oil pump or lubricator pumps. Heavier
oil should be heated before starting.
{fa compounded oil is used, the non-corrosiveness of this oil must be looked into very
carefully: The oil must not contain substances which might be injurious to tin- or lead-base
babbitts, It is also highly desirable that it be noncorrosive to copperead alloys,

Distance Piece and Piston Rod Oil
Slinger
Explanation of Distance Piece Types
API Standard 11P defines three different distance piece types:1, 2,and 3, API Standard 618,
defines 4 types: A, B,C, and D, The definitions include the terms shortand long distance
pieces. Oil slingers are installed on the piston rol when itis necessary to prevent migration
of oil between the cylinders and frames, Refer to Figure 1 below for an illustration of each
type
Short Distance Piece -a distance piece in which the distance between the pressure
packing case on the cylinder side and the wiper packing case on the frame side is Jess than
the compressor stroke.
Long Distance Piece - a distance piece in which the distance between the pressure
packing case on the cylinder side and the wiper packing case on the frame side is at least as
Jong.as the compressorstroke, When an oil stinger is required, this distance piece must also
be long enough to accommodate the slinger.
API IP Types
Type 1-a short, single compartment (primary) distance piece without an oil slinger.
Type 2-2 long, single compartment (primary) distance piece, An oil slinger is optional.
Type 3- a double compartment (primary plus auxiliary) distance piece, with at least one
being long, allowing the use of an optional oil slinger
API 618 Types
Type A -a short, single compartment (primary) distance piece without an oil slinger.
‘Type B- along, single compartment (primary) distance piece with an oil slinger.
Type C-a double compartment (primary plus auxiliary) distance piece in which both
compartments are long, An oil slinger is used in at least one compartment. The use of a
slinger in the second compartment is optional.
Type D-a double compartment (primary plus auxiliary) distance piece where one
‘compartment is long and the other short. An oil slinger is used in only one compartment,

Selection of a Distance Piece Type
A short, single compartment distance piece is adequate for the majority of applications.In
general, a double compartment distance piece is used when it is desirable to keep any trace
of process gas from entering the frame, and a long distance piece and/or slinger is used to
keep oil from migrating between cylinders and frame.
As one example, Superior spec ES 13 makes specific recommendations for gases containing
hydrogen sulfide. These are summarized in the following table
ES 13 Distance Piece Requirements for H,S
Concentration of H.S (‘) API Distance Piece Required
Type
Type B (Type DB is not available),
Type D
e Distance Piece Availability by Type
Superior (primary) distance pieces are part of the crosshead guide casting—they do not
change with the cylinder model being used. Since the pressure packing length varies
between cylinder models, some cylinders can be used with a slinger while others cannot
Therefore, the same distance piece can be classified as either short or long, depending on the
cylinder model mounted to it, The table on page 1-40 indicates which distance piece types
are available for various cylinder/frame combinations.
When a double distance piece is required, the second compartment (auxiliary distance
piece) will accommodate the use of an oil slinger in all cases, and is therefore a long distance
piece—making a Type 3(or D) available for all cylinders

This table indicates which frame/cylinder combinations are available with Type B/2 (single) and Type C/3

Cylinders are horizontal, single- or double-acting, air-or water-cooled. Cylinders with,
diameters of 575" through 265" are available in ductile iron; those from 2.375" through 7.00"
in diameter are available in forged steel. Ductile iron cylinder bodies are designed with
maximum working pressures up to 2,200 psi. Forged steel cylinders are designed with,
maximum working pressures up to 7,500 psi. The standard head for cylinders 3.88" and larger
has variable volume clearance pockets with built-in internal balance, Minimum clearance
heads are standard on cylinders 375" and smaller
Valves and Valve Unloaders
Standard valves use thermoplastic sealing plates for applications at temperatures up to 350" F
(176°C), (See page 2-18, Selection of Springs and Valve Plates" for specific plate materials) A
combination of multiple (17-7PH) coil springs anda single (400 stainless) wafer spring is used.
for control of plate motion. The valve bodies (416 stainless) comply with API-IIP design
requirements non-interchangeable, non-reversible, and captured guard and center bolt,
Stainless steel, finger-type valve opening unloaders are available on most valve sizes,
Unloaders require air/gas pressure to unload the cylinder. Cylinders are loaded when air/gas
pressure is released. Ajax-Superior should be consulted when unloaders are being considered,
since there are limitations on their application.
Poppet valves are available for the SPC (#654-658) and UD (#684-694,696) gas transmission
cylinders and can be applied under some conditions. The valve bodies are ductile iron and.
poppetsare nylon.
Piston
Four types of pistons are used, each one designed to meet the balancing requirements for its
particular size:
Piston Diameter Material
2.375375" Integral AISI 4140 Steel Piston and Rod
3.88"-9.5" One-piece Cast Iron
10"-265° Two-piece Bar Aluminum with Cast Iron
Ring Carriers
# Cooper Energy Services (2/00)
Page 1-41SUPERION™
Piston Rings
Compression tings are filled Teflon or PEEK, depending on application. Rider bands or
combination rider/compression rings are standard on all pistons.
Piston Rod
‘The piston rod is constructed of heat treated, induction hardened Als! 4140 forged steel with
UNS Class 2A rolled threads, Optional materials include the standard AISI 4140 forged steel
rod with tungsten carbide coating, and 17-4PH stainless steel.
Valve Cap Gaskets
Soft iron or steel for all forged steel bodies and high pressure ductile iron bodies, and high
‘temperature o-Ting seals for the remaining ductile iron bodies,
Packing
Fall floating, lubricated, vented, and non-cooled packing consists of filled Teflon or PEEK
pressure packing rings, depending on the application. For cylinders with working pressures
greater than 2,000 psi, the packings are provided with two points of lubrication and water
cooling. The packing case is constructed of cast iron, nodular iron, or steel, depending on the
MAWP of the cylinder. A separate wiper packing using cast iron tinnized rings is provided to
minimize oil migration from the crankcase.
Valve Spacers
‘Valve spacers are used for additional clearance flexibility. Fach spacer is designed to add extra
Clearance based on a nominal I'-high spacer (may be less for some cylinders), Please refer to
cylinder data sheets, pages 2-27 through 2-137, for clearance information.
Valve spacers are not available for use with suction valve unloaders,
Note: for non-standard materials and construction of components, see "Standard and Optional
Equipment, “page I-S and "Special Application Information, page 1-6.
