Air compressors suitable for different occasions
-
An air compressor is a device used to compress air into a high-pressure gas, often used in industrial production, manufacturing and energy fields. According to different working principles and application scenarios, air compressors can be divided into many types, including the following common types:
1.Screw air compressor: Screw air compressor compresses gas through the rotation of two screws. It has the characteristics of simple structure, smooth operation and low noise, and is widely used in industrial production.
2.Piston air compressor: A piston air compressor uses a piston to reciprocate in a cylinder to compress gas. It is suitable for small air compressors and high-pressure air compressors.
3.Screw scroll air compressor: Screw scroll air compressor is a high-efficiency and energy-saving air compressor. It realizes gas compression through the rotation of the screw and the action of the scroll. It has the characteristics of high efficiency, energy saving, and stability.
4.Reciprocating air compressor: Reciprocating air compressor uses the reciprocating motion of the piston in the cylinder to compress the gas. It is suitable for small and medium-sized air compressors.
About basic maintenance of air compressor
-
In order to ensure the normal operation of the compressor and extend its service life, in addition to regular maintenance and inspection, daily maintenance and inspection is very important.In addition to using various instruments to measure the operating changes of the compressor, inspections are usually made by looking, listening, and touching. However, these three methods are not isolated, but are interrelated. One of these methods alone cannot check whether the compressor is running well or not.
1.Regularly replace the filter element and filter oil: The filter element and filter oil of the air compressor need to be replaced regularly to ensure the normal operation of the air compressor and maintain the cleanliness of the compressed air.
2.Clean the cooling system: Regularly clean the cooling system of the air compressor, including the radiator and cooling fan, to ensure heat dissipation and prevent overheating.
3.Check and tighten connections: Regularly check and tighten air compressor connections, including pipes, joints, and bolts, to ensure system tightness and safety.
4.Lubrication system maintenance: Regularly check the oil condition of the lubrication system to ensure that the lubricating oil is sufficient and clean, and replace aging lubricating oil in a timely manner.
5.Regularly check the electrical system: Regularly check the electrical system of the air compressor, including the motor, cables and control panel, to ensure the normal operation and safety of the electrical system.
Air compressor voltage is too high or too low

Voltage is too high
The screw air compressor unit is equipped with a voltage protection device. Usually, the equipment will start automatically under low pressure, and it is normal for the equipment to automatically stop under high pressure. All pressure-related pressures are automatically controlled by pressure switches or pressure sensors. Therefore, if there is a pressure problem with the machine, it is usually only necessary to adjust the air compressor pressure, adjust the operating range of the pressure switch, and adjust the starting pressure set on the sensor. Pressure switches have different ranges and ranges. The scope can be adjusted according to the company's production needs, and the differences generally remain unchanged. Just adjust the starting and ending pressure values set by the pressure sensor. You can adjust the pressure by finding the pressure adjustment option on the air compressor panel.
Voltage is too low
This is a problem that many users are prone to encounter, and the damage is usually greater. If a company uses an industrial variable frequency air compressor, the voltage can only be changed by adjusting the transformer. For example, if the mains voltage is only 360V, the transformer will need to be replaced when 380V becomes 220V. However, since the cost of replacing a transformer with an electric motor is often high, it is recommended to contact the manufacturer before deciding on a solution.
In the case of an inverter air compressor, there are more solutions. For inverter models, due to the internal circuit principle of the inverter: the inverter changes the output power by changing the output voltage, but the voltage cannot be higher than the input voltage. If the input voltage is only 360V, a machine with a rated voltage of 380V can only output 360V; if the voltage is not enough, the inverter will increase the current. In fact, it can be used as long as the current is not too large. If the current is too large, the upper limit frequency can also be reduced to ensure normal operation of the machine.
Air compressor cleaning method
-
When an air compressor has been used for a long time, there will be carbon deposits, grease, rust, sediments, etc. inside; or if different brands and types of air compressor lubricants have been used, there will be gum formation. These are harmful to the normal operation and service life of the air compressor.To ensure the smooth operation of the air compressor, ensure the normal production of user companies, eliminate hidden dangers, and extend the service life of the air compressor, the air compressor must be cleaned regularly. So how should it be cleaned?
1.How to clean the air compressor: First turn on the air compressor and let it run for a few minutes to allow the oil to reach normal temperature; then turn off the air compressor and disconnect the main circuit switch.
2.After the internal pressure is relieved, open the refueling cap and pour in the air compressor cleaning agent; Tighten the refueling cap and start the air compressor to run for 30 minutes; Drain the old lubricating oil and add new air compressor lubricating oil; When changing lubricating oil, the oil filter must be replaced at the same time.
3.To remove dust on the surface of the radiator, use an air gun to blow away the dust on the surface of the cooler. The steps for cleaning an air compressor are basically as follows. When cleaning, you must follow the product instructions and operating procedures.
4.After cleaning, the temperature of the air compressor can drop by about 10 degrees, making the air compressor run more reliably, improving compression efficiency, and extending the service life of the air compressor. At the same time, it is also necessary to formulate a detailed maintenance plan and perform regular maintenance on the air compressor.
