How to Extend the Service Life of the Air Compressor Rotary Screw?

Air compressor rotary screws are widely used in the market. All equipment products will have equipment failures. Once the equipment fails, its service life will be reduced. In order to increase the life of the equipment and continue to create profits, it is necessary to comprehensively consider its daily maintenance, operation management and environmental factors.

Daily Maintenance

We must do daily maintenance. In normal use, we must do a good job of cleaning the air compressor rotary screw. After the screw air compressor has been running for a long time, it is forbidden to rinse with cold water. The screw air compressor is a mechanical equipment with a complex structure and powerful functions. Once a fault problem is not discovered in time, it will lead to more serious consequences.

Regular Maintenance

In normal maintenance, we take precautions. It is essential to do regular maintenance of the screw air compressor after it has been used for a period of time. Regular and appropriate inspection and replacement of parts can ensure that the screw air compressor operates in excellent condition. Therefore, doing a good job of maintaining the air compressor rotary screw filter, cleaning or replacing the filter element in time can avoid many equipment failures, and can give full play to the performance of the screw air compressor and extend the service life of the screw air compressor.

Use Environment

The use environment temperature of screw air compressors should be kept at 5-40°C. They should not be placed in unsheltered places, nor in places with high humidity, flammable and explosive liquid gases, or volatile gases. At the same time, we should also keep the environment clean to avoid unnecessary accidents.

Regular Sewage Discharge

After a period of use, some condensed water will accumulate in the air tank, so it is necessary to discharge the condensed water regularly. In addition, when the air compressor rotary screw is not in use, the air in the air tank should be released and stored in a dry environment.

Lubricating Oil Replacement

The replacement time of the compressor cooling lubricating oil depends on the use environment, humidity, air compressor dust and whether there are acidic and alkaline gases in the air. The newly purchased air compressor rotary screw must be replaced with new oil after the first 500 hours of operation. After that, it should be replaced every 4,000 hours according to the normal oil change cycle. Machines that run less than 4,000 hours per year should be replaced once a year.

Precautions of Maintain Air Compressor Rotary Screw

• When maintaining and replacing the air compressor rotary screw parts, it must be ensured that: the pressure in the air compressor system has been released, it has been isolated from other pressure sources, the switch on the main circuit has been disconnected, and the safety mark that it is not allowed to be closed has been made.
• The oil filter must be replaced after 300-500 hours of operation for the first time, and after 2000 hours of use for the second time, and then every 2000 hours at normal time.
• When repairing and replacing the air filter or the intake valve, remember to prevent any debris from falling into the main engine cavity of the air compressor rotary screw. When operating, close the main engine entrance. After the operation is completed, turn the main engine several times by hand in the direction of rotation to make sure there is no obstruction before starting the machine.
• The tightness of the belt must be checked every 2000 hours of operation. If the belt is loose, it must be adjusted until the belt is tightened; in order to protect the belt, it must be prevented from being scrapped due to oil contamination during the entire process.
• The oil filter must be replaced at the same time when the oil is changed.

Summary

Through the above measures, the service life of the air compressor rotary screw can be effectively extended, and its working efficiency and reliability can be improved. Regular maintenance and monitoring, as well as reasonable operation management, are important factors to ensure the long-term and stable operation of the equipment.
