How often does the air compressor oil change?

There is no definite time standard for the replacement of air compressor maintenance oil. For general mineral lubricating oil, 2000-3000 hours are recommended, semi-synthetic lubricating oil 4000-6000 hours are recommended, and fully synthetic lubricating oil 6000-8000 hours are recommended. Maintenance and replacement of lubricating oil depends not only on the type and quality of the oil, but also on the working environment and running time to determine the replacement frequency.

At present, there are many brands of air compressor lubricants on the market. Different brands and different types of base oils and additives are different. Due to the different quality of lubricants, the replacement time is determined. It is necessary to choose suitable lubricants and cannot be mixed.

The operating environment will also affect the loss of oil. The surrounding environment temperature is high, and the equipment operation burden will increase, which will increase fuel consumption. Therefore, it is necessary to regularly inspect the equipment and always pay attention to the oil level of the oil sight glass. If the lubricating oil is not enough or the color is wrong, Add or replace the lubricating oil in time.

Pay attention to when changing lubricating oil:

1. Oil can only be released when the air compressor is shut down and there is no pressure in the machine and the machine body is at normal temperature;

2. Open the oil drain valve to drain the oil into a suitable container, until no oil flows out when the valve is closed;

3. Remove the temperature control bypass valve and drain the remaining lubricating oil in the main engine;

4. Fill up new lubricating oil (the oil exceeds 1/2 of the oil sight glass) after the oil is released, and tighten the bolt of the oil filling hole;

5. Start the air compressor to run for 10 minutes, stop the machine to check the oil level, and if it is insufficient, add lubricating oil.

6. The replaced waste oil is likely to cause pollution and fire, and must be collected and disposed of in accordance with local laws and regulations.

Air compressor oil change as far as possible to find professional air compressor maintenance and maintenance technicians, so as to avoid some details of the poor grasp and affect the service life of the entire unit, bring unnecessary losses.
