Technical Q&A

There is a wide variety of lubricating oil types with different performances. Therefore, users should choose appropriately based on the centrifugal air compressor's bearing type, operating speed, load size, and process environment.

After 500 hours of operation, the lubricating oil in the screw air compressor should be changed, and followed by subsequent replacements every 2000 hours.

In the application of air compressors, the issue of compressor exhaust has always been a major concern for users.

Oil-injected compressors have a higher oil content, while oil-free compressors have extremely low oil content, typically around 0.01ppm, making them truly oil-free.

Frequent loading and unloading means that the screw air compressor has a very short interval from loading to unloading, and this cycle is frequent.

If an air compressor experiences oil carryover, it not only causes environmental pollution but also contaminates post-treatment process equipment such as dryers and precision filters. Additionally, it affects product quality and can lead to varying degrees of damage to production line equipment. Therefore, it is necessary to understand the reasons and solutions of high oil consumption in screw compressors.
