3.10 — Oil Additives
No oil additive is allowed without written approval from
the Carlyle Engineering Department. The use of any
unauthorized additive will void the warranty.
3.11 — Oil Pressure
All new 06D, E, CC compressors are supplied with oil
safety switch connections. Carlyle has introduced a new
high flow oil pump and changed oil pressure specifica-
tions due to changes in lubricants and refrigerants. The
following data notes the proper oil pressure range based
on the compressor’s date of manufacture:
STARTING MARCH 1994 WITH S/N 1094J AND
LATER:
• For new OEM 06D and 06CC (16 to 37 Cfm) compres-
sors, the pressure is 18 to 26 psi (1.2 to 1.8 Bars)
• For new OEM 06E and 06CC (50 to 99 Cfm) compres-
sors, the pressure is 18 to 34 psi (1.2 to 2.3 Bars)
• Note that service compressors did not receive the new
pump until serial number starting with S/N 2994M and
later.
BETWEEN MAY 1984 AND MARCH 1994 OR
BETWEEN S/N 2084J AND 1094J:
• For all 06D, E, CC compressors, the oil pressure is 16
to 22 psi (1.1 to 1.5 Bars)
BEFORE MAY 1984 OR BEFORE S/N 2084J:
• For all 06D/E compressors, the oil pressure is 12 to
18 psi (0.8 to 1.2 Bars)
• For more information about the high flow oil pump, see
Section 3.12.
