IE B034REPORT ON TREATMENT WITH XADO TECHNOLOGY, 19.02–05.03.2002
Compressor 202VO4R20/8A: operating parameters restored without teardown or overhaul
The machine began reaching operating mode faster, oil pressure rose, consumption through the lubricator fell. 40 % — time to working pressure, 30 → 18 min; 50 % — oil consumption through the lubricator, 12 → 6 l/24 h; 75 % — oil pressure in the lubrication system, 8 → 14 atm (2002).

Key results
| UNIT | RATED DATA | CONDITION BEFORE TREATMENT |
|---|---|---|
| Borets 202VO4R20/8A compressor, in service | 20 m³/min · drive 132 kW, 380 V · current 70 A at idle, 140 A under load · oil system 70 l | time to working pressure 30 min · oil pressure 8 atm · oil consumption through the lubricator 12 l/24 h · cylinder pressures 1.8 and 1.7 atm |
Readings before and after treatment
| PARAMETER | BEFORE | AFTER | CHANGE |
|---|---|---|---|
| Time to working pressure | 30 min | 18 min | −40 % |
| Oil consumption through the lubricator | 12 l/24 h | 6 l/24 h | −50 % |
| Oil pressure in the lubrication system | 8 atm | 14 atm | +75 % |
| Pressure in cylinder I | 1.8 atm | 2.0 atm | +0.2 atm |
| Pressure in cylinder II | 1.7 atm | 2.0 atm | +0.3 atm |
After the treatment the pressures in both cylinders became equal. Vibration and noise were assessed by the commission in words; the report contains no instrument readings for them.
Costs and savings as calculated in the report
| ITEM | AMOUNT |
|---|---|
| Treatment with XADO technology performed, actually paid | 1,107.32 BGN |
| Overhaul by conventional technology, plant estimate | 1,500-2,000 BGN |
| Oil savings per 8 h shift | 6.28 BGN |
| Oil savings per month | 138.16 BGN |
| Oil savings per year | 1,657.92 BGN |
The economic section of the report was prepared by the distributor MAY OOD, which performed the treatment; the calculation rests on the measured reduction in oil consumption.
Conclusion of the plant commission

About this result:
Limits of this report: The results refer to the Borets 202VO4R20/8A reciprocating compressor with a capacity of 20 m³/min at the Agria AD site in Plovdiv; on other units and duty modes the figures may differ. The economic section of the report was prepared by the distributor MAY OOD, which performed the treatment.
