Can the compressed gas of the water lubricated air compressor be used directly?

2026-04-10Views:

Can the compressed air of the water lubricated air compressor be used directly without treatment?

The exact answer is no.

The air compressed by the air compressor is cooled by the rear cooler. The air-water separator is separated and the buffer tank is stabilized. The relative humidity is 100%, and there will be solid particles and other impurities. This compressed air cannot be used directly and needs to be dried and purified.

Therefore, we need to be equipped with the corresponding air compressor after-treatment equipment. For example: gas tank, pipeline filter, dryer, etc.

1. gas tank

the gas storage tank has three main functions. One is to store compressed air to meet the sudden increase in gas consumption of gas equipment and ensure stable gas consumption. The second is to stabilize the air pressure and eliminate the pulsation of the air flow in the pipeline. The third is cooling and filtering, and the temperature of the compressed air entering the air storage tank is reduced, so as to achieve the initial cooling effect.

2. pipeline filter

the function of the pipeline filter is to filter out the moisture, dust and oil in the compressed air to the greatest extent. According to the degree of filtration, the pipeline filter can be divided into primary filtration and precision filtration.

3. dryer

there are three ways to dry the compressed air of the air compressor, namely, pressurization, cooling and adsorption. The commonly used dryers on the market are freeze dryers (also known as cold dryers) and adsorption dryers. Their role is to remove water, oil, and dust, and to protect equipment and improve product quality. But not all industries need to configure adsorption dryer, only food, pharmaceutical and other industries will use adsorption dryer.

Reminder: In order to pursue the stability and quality of compressed air, we must choose high-quality air compressor after treatment.

    Comparison of oil-free air compressor and oil-free air compressor

    Several advantages of oil-free air compressor, as well as the difference between oil-free air compressor and oil-free air compressor. Specifically, look at their differences: oil and no oil in the air compressor generally refer to the amount of oil content in the gas discharged from the exhaust port of the air compressor. Generally, the oil content of the oil machine is relatively large, and the oil content of the oil-free oil machine is 0.01ppm, so this oil content is used to distinguish the oil and no oil in the air compressor. There is also a full oil-free air compressor, it is not the use of oil lubrication, but the use of water lubrication, so the final discharge of the gas does not contain oil called full oil-free air compressor.

The invention of the double is more than ten years later than the single, and the design of the double screw air compressor is more reasonable and advanced. The double overcomes the shortcomings of single imbalance and bearing vulnerability, and has the advantages of long life, low noise and more energy saving. After the technology matured in the 1980 s, its scope of application was expanding day by day.

    Causes of high temperature during the use of screw air compressor

    Generally speaking, in the design of the air compressor, there is a design scheme of operating environment temperature (30-40 degrees). When the marine air compressor manufacturer operates at the operating ambient temperature of the design scheme, the high temperature is basically close to the maintenance temperature of the air compressor. If the ambient temperature of the air compressor is higher than the operating ambient temperature of the design scheme, the temperature of the screw air compressor will rise, causing the equipment to stop at high temperature.

    Advantages of oil-free water lubrication air compressor

    The water lubricated air compressor produced by granklin group does not contain oil. it only needs to replace the air filter element and water filter element regularly according to the manufacturer's requirements and maintain the head of the water lubricated air compressor. Oil and no oil in the air compressor generally refers to the amount of oil content in the gas discharged from the exhaust port of the air compressor. Generally, the oil content of the oil machine is relatively large, and the oil content of the oil-free oil machine is 0.01ppm. Therefore, the oil content is used to distinguish the oil and no oil in the air compressor.
