How to make the air compressor cope with high temperature weather?
In the scorching summer, high temperatures sweep across the country, and this is also a high incidence period for air compressor failure rates. Air compressors commonly experience high exhaust temperatures, which affect their work efficiency and can even cause them to stop running. How to solve these problems? The following is Zhuo Ying's method for dealing with the high temperature phenomenon of screw air compressors:
1、 Environmental temperature: The air compressor operates well at an ambient temperature of 35-40 ℃, and it is even better to operate below this value because many exhaust high temperature faults of the air compressor are caused by environmental temperature.
Solution: Improve the ventilation system in the air compressor room, such as adding exhaust fans and air ducts to direct the hot air generated by the air compressor out of the room, thereby reducing the temperature of the air compressor room and lowering the exhaust temperature of the air compressor.
2、 Oil system: As a lubrication system for air compressors, it lubricates the compressor head, reduces wear on moving parts, and lowers exhaust temperature. The high oil temperature of the air compressor directly leads to a high exhaust temperature, and reducing the oil temperature will also lower the exhaust temperature.
Solution: Check if there are any blockages in the oil system, reduce the oil flow rate and lubrication coefficient. Such as oil filters, heat converters (radiators), temperature control valves (thermostats), etc., check whether the lubricating oil is too low or leaking, repair and replace parts and pipelines that leak lubricating oil, and add an appropriate amount of lubricating oil. If the lubricating oil is too dirty and contains a lot of impurities (carbon deposits, gum, etc.), it should be replaced with brand new lubricating oil, the entire oil system should be cleaned, the oil filter should be replaced, and the temperature control valve should be calibrated.
3、 Compressor head: Damage to the internal motion bearings of the compressor head can also lead to high exhaust temperature. Check if there are any abnormal noises from the compressor head and bearings. A normal compressor with undamaged bearings should operate smoothly and produce a dull sound. If there is a noticeable impact or sharp sound during operation, it indicates that the compressor head is worn and the bearings are damaged.
Solution: Replace the head bearing, calibrate the bearing position, and calibrate the head rotor. If there is significant wear on the compressor head casing and rotor, spraying treatment should be carried out because severe wear can reduce the displacement of the compressor head.
From this, it can be seen that in order to solve the phenomenon of high temperatures in air compressors during summer, it is necessary to start from various aspects such as indoor ventilation, cleaning of the air compressor oil system, and calibration of the compressor head. Therefore, regular maintenance and upkeep of the air compressor is an important condition for ensuring its working efficiency. In the scorching summer, it is also crucial to maintain the air compressor on time.
