Standard Specification for Oil Content of Air Compressor

Air compressor oil content standard specification, but a bit "picky" topic! Just as we control the amount of seasoning when cooking, we must ensure the taste and not too much. The air compressor also requires the amount of oil.

Generally speaking, ordinary air compressors, they hope that the liquid oil content in the compressed air should not exceed 5 mg/m & sup3;, and the oil vapor content should not exceed 0.5 mg/m & sup3;. This is to ensure the quality of compressed air and the normal operation of the air compressor, just like we have to control the amount of salt and sugar when cooking.

For the oil injection screw air compressor, their requirements on the amount of oil is more "harsh. They expect the oil content of the compressed air to be no more than 3ppm, that is, no more than 3 mg of oil per cubic meter of compressed air. If it exceeds this standard, it is "high fuel consumption" or "flying oil", just like when we put too much oil in cooking, it will be greasy.

Of course, there are some special industries of air compressors, such as the food industry and pharmaceutical industry, they have strict requirements on air quality, so the oil content standard is more stringent, usually less than 0.01 mg/m & sup3;. It's like when we make desserts, we have to control the amount of sugar very accurately, otherwise it will affect the taste.

Therefore, the standard specification of the oil content of the air compressor, just like the seasoning control when we cook, should not only ensure the taste, but also not too much. When selecting and using air compressors, everyone must refer to relevant national and industry standards, and consult with suppliers or professionals to ensure that the performance and quality of air compressors meet actual needs!
