Partial or complete failure of the lube system results in catastrophic failure of the compressor. Pulsation Reciprocating compressors generate pulses of compressed air or gas that are discharged into the piping that transports the air or gas to its point s of use. This pulsation often generates resonance in the piping system and pulse impact . standing waves can severely damage other machinery
