Abstract: The compressor cyhnder handles the payload of our business. Any malfunction connected with it is a serious malfunction, serious in that the operating efficiency of the unit is reduced, the gas throughput capabilities are reduced resulting in a loss of revenue to the operating company, Early detection and repair therefore is desired and essential. It is my purpose to discuss a program of monitoring compressor discharge temperature and using this temperature as an indicator of compressor condition. This temperature can be monitored with relatively inexpensive equipment that is simple to operate, accurate and easy to maintain- equipment that is capable of detecting a minor cylinder malfunction before it can proceed to a major, more costly repair. By so doing, a cost savings in operating and maintaining the compressor facilities will be experienced by the operating company.
