What is the cause of the pressure of the screw air compressor not being able to hit

2026-04-10Views:

During the operation of the screw air compressor, it is sometimes found that the air compressor has a continuous low pressure.

Today, we will take you to understand the cause of low pressure in air compressors and how to solve this problem in future applications.

Whether the gas consumption increases.

If other equipment is added to the gas end, the output of the originally purchased air compressor may not meet the current gas consumption requirements, and another air compressor needs to be considered.

Whether the pipeline leaks.

Some pipelines have some small cracks due to long use time or do not pay attention to daily maintenance, which leads to gas leakage and the pressure cannot rise. The treatment method is to find the source of the leakage and then repair it. When installing an air compressor, it is best to buy good quality pipes.

Working pressure setting too low.

In this case, the system parameters are usually adjusted after the working conditions change or the system is adjusted or overhauled, otherwise the working pressure is not easy to operate by mistake after setting.

It is not recommended that users set compressor parameters at will, cooperate with equipment suppliers and users, comprehensively consider the working conditions and equipment operating characteristics, and set reasonable values.

Whether the air filter core is blocked.

The air filter element is used to filter dust and impurities in the air, but if the filter element is not cleaned for a long time, it is easy to block. Most of the time, the compressor exhaust volume drops, there is no big problem, is the customer neglect maintenance. If the working environment is not ideal, the compressor air filter is easily blocked. Light can use compressed gas dust removal; serious blockage, need to replace the new air filter.

Whether all intake valves are open.

Remove the intake hose, open the compressor, and observe whether the opening of the intake valve is normal.

Generally speaking, the theoretical design life of the intake valve is 100000 times. Due to the different brand batches and quality of each manufacturer, the failure of the intake valve may cause the unit's exhaust volume to drop.

If the intake valve is not fully opened during the operation of the unit, it can be judged that the reason for the decrease in exhaust volume is that the intake valve is faulty and should be removed, repaired or replaced.

Whether the machine head is aging.

The head is the central part of the air compressor, and the head is the power source of the entire equipment. If nothing else is wrong, then the problem is probably here. You can contact the manufacturer for testing, repair or replacement.
