Oil Cycle 
 
Discharge refrigerant carries droplets of oil from the compressor’s outlet.  The Turba-Shed 
separates the oil from the refrigerant.  The oil is stored in the Turba-shed until needed.  The 
oil returns to the system through the high-pressure line and oil filter. 
 
The oil filter removes impurities from the oil.  The high-pressure oil is distributed to the 
electronic oil level control, which feeds oil into the compressor through a solenoid valve. 
 
Electronic oil regulators monitor oil levels.  The units are powered by a 24V power supply.  
When the oil level in the compressor drops below ½ sightglass, the fill light comes on, and 
the oil solenoid is energized.  If after 90 seconds the oil level does not rise above ½ 
sightglass, the unit opens the compressor control circuit.  If oil becomes available, the 
electronic oil level control will automatically re-set and the compressor will resume 
operation.
