Compressor Blowers and Exhausters Sectional Committee, MED 22

FOREWORD
This Indian standard was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards, after the draft finalized by the
Compressor
Blowers and Exhausters Sectional Committee had been approved by the Mechanical Engineering
Division Council.
This standard is developed by combining existing standards for reciprocating air compressors of different
power rating. While developing this standard, committee tried to align it with the global practices while,
keeping the interest of Indian consumers and Indian manufacturing industry.
This standard supersedes the following Indian Standards:

IS No. Title
10962 : 1984 Technical supply conditions for reciprocating air compressors above 60 kW
11012 : 1984 Technical supply conditions for reciprocating air compressors above 25 and up to and including
60 kW
11465 : 1985 Technical supply conditions for reciprocating air compressor for power up to 25 kW for
general purpose and industrial applications
For the purpose of deciding whether a particular requirement of this standard is complied with the final
value observed or calculated, expressing the result of a test or analysis shall be rounded off in
accordance with IS 2 : 1960 ‘Rules for rounding off numerical values ( revised ). The number of significant
places retained in the rounded off value should be the same as that of the specified value in this standard.

between constant speed control and automatic
start and stop control, depending upon the air
requirements.

21 INSPECTION AND TESTS

21.1 The purchasershall specify if shop inspection by

purchaser is required and the tests which are
required to be witnessed.
21.2 Where shop inspection is specified:
a) Inspector representing the purchasershall have
free access at all reasonable times to
manufacturer’s plant while work on or testing
of equipment is being performed.
b) The purchasershall receive prior notice of at
least a week about mechanical/performance test
where this has to be witnessed.
d) No pressure parts shall be painted unless
inspection is completed.
e) The manufactureshall furnish the inspector with
all necessary certificate on materials, shop
data on pressure vessels etc, to verify
whether the specifications as per the order are
met.
e) Inspection by purchaser’s Inspector
shall not relieve compressor manufacturer
of his responsibility in any way.
21.3 Cleanliness
The compressor including all cast-in passages and
piping and vessels furnished by compressor
supplier shall be fully cleaned to remove all dirt, rust,
mill scale, welding beads or slags or other foreign
matter.
21.4 Tests on Compressors
The tests other than hydrostatic and pressure tests shall
be in accordance with IS 5456 unless and
otherwise specified. If mutually agreed by the
purchaser and supplier tests performed as per
international standard is also acceptable.
21.5 Recommended tests are enlisted hereunder.
Compressors may be tested using a suitable motor,
when compressors which are shipped without
equipping a prime mover are to be tested:
a) Volumetric and overall efficiency (type
test), (optional);
b) Lubricating oil consumption (type test) (optional);
c) Capacity (routine test);
d) Specific power consumption from no load to
full load (routine test);
e) Speed (routine test);
f) Testing of unloader (routine test); and
g) Safety valve test (routine test).
NOTE — The details of the above tests shall be as per
IS 5456 or any other code or standard mutually agreed
between purchaser and manufacturer.

21.6 The piping, pressure vessels, filters,

coolers and the like shall be subjected to the
8
pressure of 1.5 times the maximum allowable working
pressure but not less than 0.7 MPa, in accordance with
the specified code or as specified by the purchaser. The
air receiver shall be tested according to IS 7938 and
coolers according to IS 4503.
21.7 Safety valves shall be tested for smooth
functioning and pressure for which it is installed.

22 PREPARATION FOR DISPATCH

22.1 After test and inspection are completed all exposed

machined surfaces shall be coated with suitable rust
preventive material. Cylinder, pistons, coolers, process
piping etc. shall be cleaned and suitably protected to
prevent corrosion.
22.2 Unmachined external surfaces shall be cleaned
thoroughly and painted with suitable paint.
22.3 All openings shall be provided with suitable
closure to prevent entry of duct and foreign materials.
22.4 Each unitshall be suitably packed for at least three
months storage. Purchaser may specify for packing
suitable for outdoor storage or long term storage as an
option.
23 Guarantees
23.1 Performance Guarantee
The compressors shall be guaranteed for satisfactory
performance at the specified operating conditions.
These include a guarantee for capacity and powers at
the time of performance test. Tolerances to be allowed
on the capacity and power consumption shall be in
accordance with IS 5456 or any other international
standard.
23.2 Workmanship Guarantee
All equipment, components and spare parts other
than bought out items shall be guaranteed by the
supplier against defects which despite proper use and
maintenance appear therein and arise from defective
or improper materials or poor or faulty design or
workmanship. This guarantee shall be applicable for a
period of 18 months from dispatch, 12 months or 2 000
h from the date of installation whichever is earlier. If
any defects or mal-performance is established during
the guarantee period, the suppliershall make all
necessary or desirable alterations, repairs and
replacements free of charge.
23.3 Special warranty terms, if any, may agree between
purchaser and supplier at the time of placement of
order.
23.4 Suppliershall negotiate guarantee terms of bought
out item and pass on the same to purchaser.
