ESS-F-961 Installation of Sheave and Flywheel This bulletin applies to all Ajax models 2201, 2202, 2801, 2803, & 2804. The flywheels and sheaves of these AJAX models are installed with a RINGFEDER locking device, which is inserted over the hub of the flywheel (or sheave) and locks them to the crankshaft. The special procedures which must be followed for installation and removal are as follows: Installation 1. Clean the flywheel (or sheave) hub, bore and mating diameter on the crankshaft. Surfaces must be dry and free of any burrs, rust or lubricants. 2. Remove RINGFEDER (collar, inner ring and locking screws) from shipping container. Check if supplied locking screw threads, screw head bearing area, and the taper of the inner ring are lubricated. If not, lubricate them with a molybdenum disulfide grease, such as MolykoteGn Paste or similar. 3. Slide Half Shrink Disk (collar and inner ring) over hub projection and push it to required position. ‘The hub outside diameter may be greased. When retrofitting ringfeder on a keyed shaft, ensure inner ring split is 180° from shaft keyway. 4, Put the locking screws with hardened washers through the web clearance holes and screw them into the corresponding collar holes, finger tight. See Figure 1: ‘© Figure1 Collar Crankshaft 5. Slide hub over shaft to desired position. 6, Take any 3 or 4 locking screws equally spaced and snug them up to establish a parallel or perpendicular position of the Shrink Disk collar relative to the hub web or shaft, respectively. This will seat the collar on the taper of the Inner ring and avoid cocking of the collar. Page 1 of3 Released: 17 October 1906 ‘ie: naatation Of Shaeve And Eijwos! 7. Using a torque wrench, tighten all locking screws gradually (no more than 1/2 turn on each screw at one time) and all the way around, in either a clockwise or a counterclockwise sequence (not in diametrically opposite sequence). Several passes are required until all screws are torqued to the specified tightening torque. See Table 1: @ Table 1 BM-11878-D-1 2201, 2002, 2801, 2602, 2803, & 2804 BM1878-0-2 2201, 2002, 2801, 2802 BM 1878-E-+1 2808 BM11878-E-2 2804 8. Check and make sure that no screw will tun anymore by applying specified tightening torque (see Table 1). Only then is the installation completed. 9. After final tightening of screws, check flywheel run-out. See Figure 2 for maximum tolerances. If run-out exceeds maximum, loosen all socket head screws and tap flywheel into position using a soft hammer on wood block. Retighten screws following same sequence as before, and check that run- out is within tolerance. a TAR. © Figure? 020" T..R.—>|| Removal 1. Gradually release locking screws all the way around. Initially each screw should be released about a quarter of a turn only. Thus tilting and jamming of the collar will be avoided. DO NOT remove locking screws completely at this time, otherwise collar may spring off. 2. Any rust formed adjacent to hub must be removed first. Once the screws are loose, pull hub from e shaft.

Ifnot, lubricate with molybdenum disulfide grease, such as Molykote GN paste or equivalent. 3. Place the green ringfeder and split ring assembly on the machined diameter of the flywheel. 4, The bolts to be used on the ringfeder are metric. A 16 mm (FWF2500-1600) hardened flat washer is required for every bolt. Start each bolt into the ringfeder, but DO NOT TIGHTEN. Collar Inner Ring Crankshaft 5. Usea fine file or emery cloth to remove any burrs from the flywheel and crankshaft, cleaning both for assembly. 6. Coat the flywheel and crankshaft sparingly with engine oil. The flywheel to crankshaft fit is between .001”-.003". Do not over-lubricate. Step 6 should only be performed during initial engine assembly. Do not lubricate on field units. 7. Carefully place the flywheel on the end of the crankshaft. Do not bump the crank as this will create a burr that can impede installation. Push the flywheel evenly onto the crankshaft until the face of the Paget of 4 Released: 6/8/99 esseo6o Tie: Keyless Flywheel instalation And Timing flywheel and the end of the crankshaft are even. Do not wiggle the flywheel inlout or try to turn the flywheel onto the crankshaft! It will create heat o and possibly gall the surface of the crankshaft. 8. After the flywheel is installed, snug several of the bolts in a criss-cross pattern to lock the flywheel to the crankshaft. 9. Remove the crosshead side access door from power cylinder one. 10, Set the timing pointer on the ignition bracket, allowing 1/8” clearance from the flywheel. Adjust the pointer until it is located in the middle of vertical slot on the bracket. Finding TDC and Timing Degree Marks 11. Place a4” bar or equivalent between the end of the crosshead and the pack flange. Bar the engine over clockwise until the bar stops against the packing. Hold the flywheel in this position, keeping the crosshead against the bar. 12. Mark the flywheel on the outer diameter (O.D.) with an ink marker at the pointer location. This is, “Temporary Mark #1”. 13, Remove the tension on the bar in the crosshead and remove. 14, Rotate the engine clockwise until is has passed TDC far enough to re-insert the bar. 15, Reinsert the bar and rotate the engine counter-clockwise until the bar stops the crosshead against the packing. Hold the flywheel in this position. 16. Mark the flywheel on the O.D. with an ink marker at the pointer location. This is “Temporary Mark 2”, 17. Release the tension from the bar and remove. Rotate the engine to allow access to both of the tempo- 6 rary marks. 18. Measure the distance between the marks. Divide the distance by two and, using an ink marker, cre- ate a third mark equidistant between the two marks. This will be “Temporary Mark #1”. Mark T represents the Top Dead Center (TDC) of the crankshaft. ‘You can verify the position of the TDC mark by measuring the distance between marks #1 and T, then marks #2 and T. These distances should be equal. It is now necessary to add the ignition timing mark. Verify that the ignition is properly set. All 2200 and 2800 engines use a 48” diameter flywheel. This means that: 3° = 114" Flywheel O.D. distance 9° = 3X" Flywheel O.D. distance 11° = 4.5/8" Flywheel OD. distance 20.

Page 4of 4 Released: 6/99 ESS-L981 ‘AJAX LOW EMISSIONS ENGINES ER GY SERVICES ENGINEERING SALES & SERVICE BULLETIN AJAX-SUPERIOR ENGINES; OKLAHOMA CITY, OK 73129 COMPRESSORS ESS-L-981 Date: July 13,1998 Supercedes ESS-L-921 AJAX LOW EMISSIONS ENGINES AJAX JET CELL OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE ABSTRACT The jet cell concept is required for low emission or emission reduction engines. The high- energy torch issuing from the pre-chamber allows the main chamber to be operated with a leaner mixture and consistently ignited, as compared to a conventional spark plug ignition of a lean mixture. Also, the jet cell is applied to units to improve combustion stability and improve fuel consumption when operating at variable speeds and reduced torque. This paper describes the jet cell operation and general maintenance procedures relating to AJAX Low Emissions Two-Cycle Engines. ‘AETCELL OPERATION ‘The jet cell, or pre-combustion chamber, is a unit which is installed in the cylinder head. ‘The nozzle end is designed with a specific volume and has a communicating angled exit orifice. A spark plug for ignition and a fuel admission check valve complete the necessary operational components. Pilot fuel headers supply fuel to each admission check valve. The supply to the header is taken prior to the governor regulated fuel valve, filtered, and the pressure regulated with an additional regulator. The ignitor fuel pressure is thus regulated manually according to site conditions. For one cycle of operation, as the piston comes up on compression, the pressure within the cylinder is lower than the pilot gas pressure and fuel is admitted into the cell. When 1 Revised 07/98 ESs-L-981 AJAX LOW EMISSIONS ENGINES the pressure within the cylinder becomes greater than the fuel pressure, then the pilot @ check valves close. The main fuel valve admits fuel into the cylinder per the designed timing. Ignition occurs within the jet cell and the rich fuel mixture ignites. The pressure rise caused by this energy release forces the burning mixture to exit through the nozzle orifice across the top of the piston in the main combustion chamber, igniting the main combustible charge. IGNITION TIMING In standard spark ignited engines, the spark plugs ignite the charge and a progres flame front occurs within the combustion chamber. Due to the time required for this flame propagation, the ignition timing is approximately 9°-12° before top dead center @IDO). With the jet cell, a torch of fire emitting from the exit orifice penetrates into the fueV/air mixture within the main combustion chamber. The mixture is ignited uniformly by this higher energy source, which promotes faster burning. For this reason, the ignition timing is set at 3° BTDC. For an engine operating at 440 rpm, this sequence of fuel admission, ignition, etc., occurs 7.3 times per second, 440 times per minute, 26,400 times per hour, 663,600 times per day (24 hrs), and 30 days of operation would equal 19,008,000 times. e MAINTENANCE ‘The jet cell, when installed into the cylinder head, has a round Armco iron gasket which acts as a fire seal; a graphoil seal employed as a bottom water seal, and an ‘O” ring as the top water seal. The unit is held in place with a two-bolt flange and torqued to 70 ft-Ibs. If acell is removed from the head, it is important that the access hole for the cell is clean and free of any scale build-up. New gaskets and seals should be installed and the unit properly torqued. A locating dowel is used to assure proper orientation of the exit orifice of the cell in relation to the main combustion chamber. SPARK PLUGS Cooling of the spark plug is accomplished primarily through the spark plug gasket seating surface and the threads. These areas within the cell have thin metal sections and are surrounded with engine coolant. In service, the center and ground electrodes will deteriorate, which increases the spark plug gap. Erratic firing will occur once the gap increases 0.005"-0.010" from the original setting and the plugs should be replaced. e 2 Revised 07/98 ESS-L-981 AJAX LOW EMISSIONS ENGINES ‘On older LE equipment (pre 9/92), where a YK-8209-C jet cell was used, a Champion RW77N (BM-1022-2) spark plug with an initial gap of 0.015” to 0.018” was used. The main chamber spark plug utilized the Champion W-18 (BM-1022). Current production models (post 9/92) where a YK-8209-C-1 is utilized, use a Champion W-18 (BM-1022) spark plug is used with an initial gap of 0.020”. This allows use of the same spark plug for both the main chamber and igniter. The current production jet cell (YK-8209-C-1) identified with a ‘3/4’ stamped on the top face. IMPORTANT: Do not install the W-18 spark plug in the YK-8209-C jet cell. Damage ‘may occur to igniter and/or spark plug threads as the result of thread depth and thread reach respectively. ‘The secondary ignition wiring and associated components should always be in good condition. FUEL ADMISSI CHECK VALVES The primary check valve (P/N YK-8338-A) is most important in the operation of the jet cell. As noted previously, the number of cyclic operations relates to the unit's speed, with fuel being admitted when the cylinder pressure is less than the pilot fuel pressure and being shut off the cylinder pressure increases. The check valve also withstands the high pressure within the cell at time of ignition. Present production check valves use a ceramic ball with tool steel enclosure and seat. Ajax continues to improve the life and operation of the valves with ongoing research and development programs. From the primary check valve, the fuel gas enters the cell through drilled communication holes. Due to fuel entrapment, incomplete combustion can occur in these passages, which tends to produce a soot-carbon residue. In some cases, this build-up is not detrimental to the check valve’s operation, but in other cases it can be severe. If this build-up becomes heavy, erratic operation of the check valves will occur and they should be removed, cleaned and tested. Whenever the spark plugs are replaced, it would be appropriate to remove and clean the check valves. Some end users have a spare set of check valves which are installed at this time, and the removed set is cleaned for reinstallation at a later date. ‘An orifice (P/N K-8050) is installed on the inlet side of the primary check valve to allow pilot fuel pressures to be comparable to main fuel pressure. The orifice resembles a 1/8” toe nipple. Ensure this is an orifice by visual inspection, noting a small 0.038” internal hole. Clean when servicing the primary check valve. Connected directly upstream of the orifice is a secondary check valve (P/N BM-21064). This is utilized only as a backup to the primary check valve. 3 Revised 07/98 ESS-L981 AJAX LOW EMISSIONS ENGINES A jet cell-equipped engine does require some additional maintenance over a standard ‘combustion engine. This additional maintenance is offset by gains in combustion stability, lower emissions and improved fuel economy. 4 Revised 0798 ® ESS-L983, LE RETROFIT CONVERSIONS 7 SUPPLEMENT ASSEMBLY PROCEDURE Vg COOPER ENERGY SERVICES ENGINEERING SALES & SERVICE BULLETIN AJAX-SUPERIOR ENGINES) OKLAHOMA CITY, OK 73129 COMPRESSORS ESS-L-983 Date: July 14, 1998 Supercedes ESS-L-923 AJAX LOW EMISSIONS RETROFIT CONVERSIONS 13-1/4” & 15” BORES SUPPLEMENT ASSEMBLY PROCEDURE The new AJAX Low Emissions (LE) Engine utilizes a squish design combustion chamber that includes a jet cell (ignitor cell). The assembly procedure is basically the same as on a standard engine, with the following additions and changes in gas valve timing, ignition timing and power piston position. 1. PISTON & HEAD INSTALLATION: ‘A) The piston used on the LE engine does not incorporate notches or tapped holes in the crown for installation as compared to the standard combustion engine. It is recommended that a rod wrench (or strap wrench) be used to install or remove the power piston. B) Screw piston into crosshead until approximately three (3) threads are left showing. Do not tighten rod nut at this time. C) Install cylinder head (with gasket) and torque to 600 ft-lbs. D) Using solder, set piston-to-head striking clearance at 0.110” (+: 0.010"). This is ‘measured at the 6:00 position by inserting solder through the gas injection hole down towards bottom of head. Roll piston forward (rotate crankshaft in CW direction) past TDC, thus crushing solder. Using a micrometer or dial calipers, ‘measure thickness of crushed solder. Adjust piston position accordingly, to obtain proper striking clearance. Refer to Figure 1. 1 Revised 07/98 ESS-L-983 LE RETROFIT CONVERSIONS SUPPLEMENT ASSEMBLY PROCEDURE Figure 1, Measuring Proper Piston-To-Head Distance @ HEAD power crunocn \ e PISTON 0.400" 40.010") ‘COLD STRIKING CLEARANCE - PISTON @ D.C. FIG. 1 - Piston To Head Striking Clearance Revised 7798 E) Once clearance is set, torque rod nut and check clearance again. Piston has a tendency to turn out slightly when tightening nut. rp . GAS CAM TIMING: Refer to ESS-T-91] as a basis for fuel injection timing. The following changes must be made when converting an engine to LE application. A) The flywheel and gear shield must be removed in order to remove layshaft and reset cam timing. B) Cam timing is retarded from the standard 13° ABDC beginning of injection to 37° ABDC. DO NOT GO BEYOND 37°ABDC! If gears do not line up with cams at 37° ABDC, go back towards BDC (ie. 35° ABDC). Beginning of injection is 37° e@ 2 Revised 0718 ESS-L-983 LE RETROFIT CONVERSIONS SUPPLEMENT ASSEMBLY PROCEDURE, ABDC on all LE engines but the method of setting the timing is different on DPC-800s & DPC-2804s. ©) On DPC-800s & DPC-2804s, the control box utilizes one (1) cam for two (2) cylinders. #1 & #3 power cylinders run off the cam closest to the power cylinders. #2 & #4 cylinders run off the other cam. Refer to Figure 2. Figure 2. Control Box And Cams x ‘2, % SPACER —= cYL.2-4 CAM CYL.I-3 CAM Ya" O18 HOLES IN caMS 10 0 SEO mM CavsHArT Tmt. CONTROL BOX AND CAMS #1 power cylinder gas cam timing is referenced off #3 bank on the control box. ‘The crankshaft should be rotated in a clockwise direction to 26° ABDC #1 power cylinder. DO NOT GO BEYOND 26°ABDC! If gears do not line up with cams at 26° ABDC, go back towards BDC (i.e. 24° ABDC). The crankshaft is positioned at 26° ABDC for setting cam timing on DPC-800s & DPC-2804s only. This is due to the way the cam is installed on the layshaft. The result will be injection beginning at 37° ABDC. Refer to FIG 3. The cam can now be set using the method illustrated in ESS-T-911. D) Once the preceding is complete, the layshaft gear should be installed and re- indexed. 3. IGNITION TIMING: Ignition timing is changed on all LE engines to 3° BTDC. New mag pickup brackets are furnished for all conversions through the DPC-600 & DPC-2803 to accommodate the timing change. 3 Revised 07/98 ESS-L-983 LE RETROFIT CONVERSIONS ‘SUPPLEMENT ASSEMBLY PROCEDURE e ‘On DPC-800 and DPC-2804 engines where the ALTRONIC III is used, the alternator must be removed and re-indexed to 3° BTDC (refer to the standard DPC-800/DPC- 2804 Operation & Maintenance Manual for procedure).

IGNITOR ASSEMBLY INSTALLATION: Refer to FIG 4 A) Ignitor assembly is indexed with a roll pin that lines up with a slot machined in the LE power head. This ensures proper direction of ignitor exit orifice. It is very important that they are lined up properly! Misalignment will result in severe piston crown damage. It should be noted that when ignitor is torqued into head, the roll pin will not completely set into slot. This is only an alignment reference. B) Install gasket (P/N SF-34-65) onto end of ignitor by pressing on or using small amount of grease to hold gasket in place when installing ignitor into the head. Insure O-ring is installed on ignitor at this time also. C) Install water seal (P/N 2-013-129-002) into head. 4 Revised 07/98 ESS-L-983 LE RETROFIT CONVERSIONS : SUPPLEMENT ASSEMBLY PROCEDURE e igure 4.

This may take some hand fitting of seal. Torque down in progressive 5 ft-Ib increments to 70 ft-lbs. 5. SPARK PLUGS: On older LE equipment (pre 9/92), where a YK-8209-C jet cell was used, a ‘Champion RW77N (BM-1022-2) spark plug with an initial gap of 0.015” to 0.018” was used. The main chamber spark plug utilized the Champion W-18 (BM-1022). Current production models (post 9/92), where a YK-8209-C-1 is utilized, use a Champion W-18 (BM-1022) spark plug with an initial gap of 0.020”. This allows use of the same spark plug for both the main chamber and igniter. The current production jet cell (YK-8209-C-1) is identified with a *3/4” stamped on the top face. IMPORTANT: Do not install the W-18 spark plug in the YK-8209-C jet cell. Damage may occur to ignitor and/or spark plug threads as the result of thread depth ‘and thread reach, respectively. 5 Revised 0798 ESS-L-983 LE RETROFIT CONVERSIONS SUPPLEMENT ASSEMBLY PROCEDURE 6. GAS INJECTION VALVES: The gas injection valve used in the LE power end is of the same basic design as the ‘one used in the standard combustion assembly but the valve housing and plunger housing are not interchangeable. The gas injection valve assembly on the LE engine has a longer valve body housing and a shorter plunger housing to accommodate the profile of the power head 7. MISCELLANEOUS: In addition to the preceding requirements, engines that are converted to the LE design must have: A) Dry-type, low restriction intake system B) Ring gear start system on 15” bore engines C) 3/8” hydraulic supply lines on gas injection system D) Exhaust line adjustment to compensate for length of insertion pipe in muffler If you have any questions or problems pertaining to an LE retrofit conversion, contact your local AJAX-SUPERIOR representative. 6 Revised 07/98 Technical Information Bulletin # 020326 March 26, 2002 Subject: Preventive Maintenance for DPC-2200 & DPC-2800 Series Check the following WEEKLY, and correct or repair as necessary Date: -__ = O lube oil reservoir for adequate level lubricator oil level (drain accumulated water) Co make sure each lube point is receiving oil at its terminus CD erankcase oil level Orecord RPM_ O record intake air manometer reading __ C record main fuel gas pressure __ O record LE fuel gas pressure O hydraulic fluid level in gas injection tank (record any amount added) CO coolant level (record any amount added) O record EJW and CJW temperature ___ O record exhaust temperatures, adjust if QT is greater than 40° record compressor discharge temperatures ___ hot compressor valves, repair as needed Grecord operating process gas pressures Crecord VVP settings for operating conditions, adjust ifnecessary ‘CO walk around the compressor and note abnormal vibration or sounds, and gas or liquid leakage Check the following MONTHLY (or 800 hours), and correct or repair as necessary Date: - 7 0 perform weekly maintenance O check safety control panel and fuel valve for proper operation and shutdown Cl panel mounted safety limit switches and set point values unit mounted safety limit switches 1 compressor rod packing blow-by drain oil from compressor distance pieces and record quantity lubricate the throttle linkage (O manually actuate scrubber and fuel filter dump valves, MONTHLY (or 800 hours) cont'd, The compressor unit needs to be shut down and blocked in for the following: @ 1 clean or replace air filters ‘lubricate the water pump with one shot of grease/point lubricate the cooler bearings with one shot of grease/point CO lubricate the idler bearing with one shot of grease/point inspect the belts for proper tension, replace if worn clean debris from the cooler 1 drain the power cylinder scavenger ports and record quantity 1 clean or replace spark plugs and spark plug wires (gap the plugs at OEM specs) C clean the LE check valves and orifice nipples © inspect the LE fuel filter 1 tightness of external fasteners O frame to skid TI compressor crosshead guide (to the frame and the skid) 1 compressor cylinder supports, adjust if necessary © compressor cylinder to crosshead guide Check the following ANNUALLY (or 8000 hours), and correct or repair as necessary Date:__-__- 1 perform weekly and monthly maintenance e change crankcase oil, clean the crankcase, inspect for metal, water, etc |G Bump check rod bearings replace if necessary ‘C clean the crankcase breathers, or renew replaceable elements 1 drain and clean the lubricator box remove and inspect the fuel injection valves C crosshead-to-guide, and pin-to-bushing clearances, and record C intemal fasteners for proper torque O piston rods for wear and scuffing change rod packing if leakage is noted remove and inspect compressor valves, inspect compressor cylinder condition through the valve ports Ci remove, clean, and inspect mixer valves; assure a smooth, scratch-free seating area and replace all the valve plates (reed strips) and springs 1 inspect power cylinders through fuel injection port and LE ignitor port Check the following every 16,000 Operating Hours, and correct or repair as necessary Date: . *, O perform weekly, monthly, and annual maintenance re-ring power and compressor cylinders replace wiper and pressure packing 1 inspect pistons, rods and cylinders e 1 inspect crosshead pins and bushings 1 inspect connecting rod and main bearings Technical Information Bulletin # 020718 12 August 24, 2004 Subject: Ajax Component Wear Limits all 15” Bore x 16” Stroke includes DPC-180, -360, -600, all 13%" Bore x 16” Stroke (Includes DPC-115, -140, 3100, & 2800 Series models) 30, -280, & 2200 Series models) The following component dimensional specifications and wear limits should be used as a guide for preventative maintenance programs for Ajax equipment.

Engine damage can be avoided by practicing the following two rules of operation: 1. Donot apply load to the engine until the COOLANT TEMPERATURE coming out of the engine is 150° F. 2, Assure that the cylinders are receiving the correct amount and quality of lubricant. ‘The length of time it takes to warm up the engine’s coolant to140°-150° F is dependant upon several factors. [fit has been out of service for a short time for routine preventive maintenance, a relatively short warm up period is needed. If the engine has been out of service for more than five hours and the surrounding temperature has been < 50° F, then follow the procedures prescribed in Ajax Engineering Standard ES 1006 on pages 2 and 3. The chart shown below describes the amount of load (% of total) that can be applied when engine coolant outlet temperatures between 40° F and 150° F. Use caution and patience when ‘trying to accelerate the warm up period. % Site Rated Load © 1010160 Engine Coolant Outlet Temperature (F) For engine lubrication refer to the Operation Manual’s section on Power Cylinder Lubrication for details. Generally, normal oil consumption is 1 pin/30 BHP per day. For example: DPC-2802LE at 4500" elevation, 100° F, operating at 440 rpm has a site rated available BHP of 349.4. 349.4 BHP + 30 BHP/day = 11.6 pints/day per engine ‘An empirically determined amount can be used for consistently reduced load operation. If counting a force feed lubricator pump’s “drops per minute” be certain that the individual pump is in good condition, and has no wear between the plunger and its bore. If using a digital lubrication meter, compare its reading to the unit's Lube System Operating Schematic for the correct lube rate. Engine Coolant Safety Shutdown Temperature ‘Ajax has traditionally specified 206°F as the engine's coolant high temperature limit. This value is based upon experience with thermosyphon coolant systems. A shutdown value of 185°F is more appropriate for DPC-2200 and DPC-2800 series engines ‘with pressurized and 150°F thermostatically controlled systems. ‘When the fuel has greater than 0.15% HS by volume, the coolant temperature should be raised to 160°F to minimize sulfuric acid formation. The safety shutdown temperature should then be set at 190°F. Fuels containing more than 0.02% HO should be dried to avoid the formation of sulfuric acid. Action: If the fuel has more than 0.15% H,S by volume, change the thermostat’s control element to attain 160°F. Adjust the safety shutdown trip point on the coolant temperature monitor in your unit's control panel to the appropriate value.

(Metering element designation (the SMX number) is stamped on each element's nameplate.) Technical Information Bulletin # 050610 June 10, 2005 ‘Subject: Engine Operation with Fuel Containing H,S (Hydrogen Sulfide) ‘Ajax engines can operate with some amount of HS in the fuel. The standard engine configuration can tolerate 100 grains HS per 100 scf natural gas without operational or ‘mechanical alteration, (This amount is 0.16% when expressed as volume.) However, successful engine operation with up to 3% (volume) of HpS can be achieved when extra protective measures are made. Background: HS in fuel gas will combine with water to form sulfuric acid. The source of the water is either saturated fuel, or a byproduct of combustion. Depending upon the amount of HS in the fuel, corrosion will occur. The corrosion affects parts with brass, bronze, copper (bearings, bushings, wiring, etc.) as well as many ferrous alloy materials. The effect is erosion of some materials, and slress corrosion cracking of others. Ajax engines can tolerate higher fuel HS levels than competitive four stroke cycle engines because: a) there are no intake or exhaust valves. Seats, guides, and valve faces are very susceptible to HaS attack. ) the engine’s crankcase is isolated from the power cylinders because of the crosshead type design. The piston rod’s packing separates the crankcase and the power cylinder. Acid laden combustion products which blow by the piston rings do not contaminate the crankcase oil.
