Air compressor industry commonly used vocabulary

2026-04-10Views:

The term for air compressor is air compressor (English: aircompressor), which is a device that compresses gas and is the main body of the gas source device. It is a device that converts the mechanical energy of the prime mover (usually an electric motor) into gas pressure energy.

For friends who are new to air compressors, they may know a lot about some common nouns. Let's learn together.

1, compressed air: refers to the absolute pressure is greater than 0.1Mpa air.

2. Air compressor exhaust pressure: refers to the pressure measured at the standard exhaust position of the air compressor.

3. Air compressor displacement: The compressed air compressed and discharged by the air compressor is converted to the actual volume flow under standard suction conditions.

4. Air compressor exhaust temperature: refers to the temperature measured at the standard exhaust position of the air compressor.

All-in-one machine

5, specific power: compressed unit volume of air required air compressor shaft power.

6, pressure dew point: corresponding to a certain pressure, the water vapor in the compressed air began to condense into a liquid temperature.

7. Standard condition of screw air compressor: suction pressure: 0.1Ma (absolute pressure); Suction temperature: 0 ℃.

8. Air compressor noise: refers to the noise sound pressure level value measured in the environment where the reflection plane is greater than the projection of the measuring surface on it in a wide outdoor field.

9, compressed air oil content: unit volume of air contained in the oil (including oil droplets, suspended particles, oil vapor) quality.

10, compressed air dust content: unit volume of air contained in the quality of dust.

11. Water content of compressed air: the sum of the mass of water and water vapor per unit volume of air.

12. Gas consumption (gas demand): the sum of the compressed air flow required by all gas-using equipment corresponding to a certain working condition.

13, pressure belt: the range of pressure fluctuations in the compressed air system, that is, the difference between the maximum and minimum system pressure.

14. PPM: A symbol indicating the content of trace substances in a mixture, referring to the number of parts per million or parts per million.

    What oil is added to the air compressor

    What oil is added to the air compressor needs to be determined according to the type of air compressor. Small piston air compressor generally use ordinary mechanical oil can, viscosity is not too high on the line. If it is a screw air compressor or sliding vane air compressor, it is necessary to use special lubricating oil. Air compressor oil mainly plays the role of lubrication, cooling, rust prevention, cleaning, sealing and buffering. Its type is roughly divided into three types: synthetic oil, semi-synthetic, mineral oil;
