Disassembly
Depressurise compressor housing

Disconnect Power supply of Main motor
Disassemble impeller acc. separate Instructions
Mount interior transport securing device
Mount outer transport securing device
Remove screws of dry gas seal
Screw threaded rods into dry gas seal by hand
Screw expansion bolt into shaft by hand
Mount tension rod onto expansion bold with nut and washer
Stick the brace over tension rod
Consistently screw both nuts that dry gas seal doesn’t cant until it is about 1/3 out.
Pull the dry gas seal out by hand
1. Loosen piping at housing cover [1]

2. Unscrew the housing cover [2]. Use an eyebolt (or similar) to hold the housing cover (for
example with a crane).
3. Move the housing cover [2] out of the housing and pay attention to a proper axial
movement,
otherwise the housing cover might get jammed.
4. Unscrew the flow cap [3]. (The screw is fixed with adhesive Loctite 243)
5. In order to loosen serration connection, it is necessary to use a hydraulic cylinder and the
appropriate special accessories provided:
6. In order to unscrew the fastening nut of the impeller, the expansion screw must be
pre-stressed (max. 277bar).
7. For installation of hydraulic hand pump refer to Rotor assembly drawing and bill of
material (3670-GP-VD-003_9319_HGA_201042) Chapter 5.1.6.
8. The nut may now be unscrewed by hand turn the screw 1/2 turn.
Unscrew the nut completely and dismantle the impeller axially.
Dry gas seal
Plane-lapped seal faces

Perpendicular between the seal faces and the shaft axis
Unforced freedom of movement of the spring-loaded rotating components and the sealing
elements.
Prevention of sedimentation on the surfaces of the housing, shaft, or shaft sleeve by e.g.
crystallization, polymerization.
A properly generated, permanent sealant-gas seal film between the seal faces of the
product- and atmospheric-side seals.
When putting into operation check sealing pressure. Refer to the Piping and Instrumentation
diagram for purge gas (3670-GP-VD-003_9319_ZDM_201205E) in chapter 3.1.
Assembly
No foreign particle may reach in the compressor inside.

Sealing between housing cover and housing have to be replaced.
1. Observe radial and axial alignment as well as angle alignment.
2. Attention: Observe position of shaft seal on shaft.
3. Observe register pin for mounting direction to boring bush.
4. Put dry gas seal about 1/3 over shaft by hand.
5. Mount assembly tool. Refer to the drawing in List of special tools and tackles
(3670-GP-VD-003_9319_ZLZ_201040) in chapter 8.7
- Screw threaded rod into shaft by hand
- Attach sleeve
- Set washer and nut
6. Fasten dry gas seal until dry gas seal contacts boring bush
7. Remove outer transport securing device
- Fix dry gas seal with screws. Screws have to be pasted in with Loctite 243
+ Activator.
- Remove interior transport securing device.
Gearbox
Disassembly:
Disconnect all cables of Gearbox instrumentation. All disconnected cables have to be
marked according to the associated part.
For opening of the gearbox refer to manufacturer’s manual Chapter 16.2.
Assembly:
After closing of Gearbox you have to reconnect all cables of Gearbox instrumentation.
Assure that all cables will be connected again onto the original position!
Coupling
Curved tooth coupling with ATEX
Design
- Spacer length: 1500mm
- Cylindrical drilled and grooved
Including setscrews
Balanced according to ISO 1940 G2,5
Disassembly:
Refer to manual of the manufacturer in chapter 16.2
- Metastream fitting, operation and maintenance instructions – Removal of coupling
REMOVAL OF COUPLING
DANGER - Ensure coupling is stationary and has been made safe prior to commencing removal.
Support the transmission unit (3) to ensure the weight is never imposed on one end only. Slacken
off the stripper bolts (4) & (6).
Fit the gagging bolts and compress the membrane units evenly until there is sufficient gap to
permit removal of the transmission unit . (Refer to table 1 & figure 2).
DO NOT OVER COMPRESS EITHER ASSEMBLY AS THIS MAY DAMAGE THE FLEXING
ELEMENTS.
Remove the stripper bolts (4) and nuts (6), and lift out the transmission unit.
Tapped holes are provided in flanges to assist in breaking the spigot/recess fit.
The following instructions detail the gagging of each membrane unit.
Remove the red painted gagging bolts (11) used to compress the membrane. Then refit the
gagging sleeves (10) and bolts and tighten. The membrane unit is now gagged. Repeat for the
other membrane unit.
Important note: The gagging method described above is only intended for transportation and fitting.
DO NOT DISMANTLE THE MEMBRANE ASSEMBLIES AS THIS WILL INVALIDATE THE DYNAMIC
BALANCE.
HUB REMOVAL.
1. KEYED HUBS
• Puller holes are provided as an aid to hub removal. They are not intended for 'cold'
removal of the hub.
• Insert screwed rods and position a puller plate or bar over the rods, bridging a
packer bearing on the shaft end.
• Tension the rods up to the safe tightening torque.
• Taking due safety precautions, preferably using an induction heater or heating
tape, heat the hub quickly and evenly until it moves and draw off.
• DO NOT use spot heat or exceed 175 C as this may cause distortion.
• If the hub must be removed 'cold' then use a heavy duty puller bearing on the
back of the hub boss. Avoid contact and load transfer between the puller and the
flange as this may cause distortion.
2. HUBS MOUNTED BY OIL INJECTION:-
DANGER - A suitable stop to control axial movement of the hub/membrane unit must be fitted
BEFORE oil injection begins.
• For reasons of safety and to prevent damage to mating surfaces, use the mounting tools to
restrict the movement of the hub from the shaft which may suddenly separate with
considerable force.
• Assemble the Oil injection equipment. Consult the Oil injection System Suppliers' instructions.
• Inject oil between the components until the required pressure is reached, or it leaks out at the
ends of the mating surfaces.
• Gradually release the mounting tool so that the hub/membrane unit slides off smoothly.
3. ADAPTERS
• Refer to the specific general arrangement drawing for location and mounting details.
• Note position on shaft flange and any match markings.
• Support the weight of the adapter.
• Remove the adapter stripper bolts
• Tapped holes are provided in flanges to assist in breaking the spigot/recess fit.
Assembly:
Refer to manual of the manufacturer in chapter 16.2
- Metastream fitting, operation and maintenance instructions – Installation of coupling
