Advantages of oil-free water lubrication screw air compressor

2026-04-10Views:

Oil-free air compressors can be divided into two categories from the perspective of lubrication: self-lubricating oil-free air compressors and water-lubricated oil-free air compressors. These two air compressors have both advantages and disadvantages, and there is no conclusion as to who is good or bad.

Oil-free water-lubricated air compressors are generally screw air compressors, which mainly use water as a proxy for lubricating oil to perform lubrication. During the working process, the lubrication, sealing and cooling of the entire host are completed by water. It has these advantages:

1, the real oil-free lubrication, the entire work process before the need for lubricating oil is replaced by water, so there is no oily substances involved, really ensure that the discharge of compressed gas does not contain oil;

2. Higher quality of compressed air: Because the water itself has a certain cleaning effect, it can clean some impurities and dirt inside the air compressor while working, reducing the probability of compressed air being polluted and making the compressed gas quality higher;

3. The compression environment is closer to the suction temperature: This is also because the cooling performance of water is better than that of lubricating oil, so the entire compression environment can be more effectively controlled to make it closer to the suction temperature;

4. The use and maintenance costs are reduced: because there is no participation of lubricating oil, there is no need for oil and gas separators, oil filters and other accessories, so there is no need to replace these parts in the process of need, so the cost of these parts is saved. In addition, because no lubricating oil is needed, z * mainly saves the cost of lubricating oil. Furthermore, due to the use of water lubricating oil, and the water itself has a certain cleaning effect, all can extend the maintenance cycle of the equipment, so it also saves the maintenance cost to a certain extent;

5, the real environmental protection products, the pollution of the environment to reach z * low. And relative to the same power ordinary air compressor, water lubricated oil-free air compressor to save energy by about 20%. The advantages of oil-free water lubrication air compressor are basically so many, of course, which type to choose also needs you to choose according to your own needs!
