The pressure of the air compressor has reached, but the flow rate has not reached.

When the pressure of the air compressor reaches the preset value, but the flow rate fails to reach the desired level, it often means that the working state of the air compressor is not optimal, or there are some factors that affect the flow rate. The following is a detailed analysis of this situation:

first of all, the pressure and flow of the air compressor are two interrelated but independent parameters. Pressure is the force exerted by the gas on the wall of the vessel or pipe, while flow is the volume of gas passing through the pipe or container per unit time. When the pressure of the air compressor reaches the preset value, if the flow rate does not reach the desired level, it may be due to the following reasons:

  1. improper selection of air compressor if the selection of the air compressor does not match the actual application requirements, for example, an air compressor with a small displacement is selected, even if the pressure reaches the preset value, the flow rate may not meet the demand.
  2. Air inlet or outlet blocked: If the air inlet or exhaust port of the air compressor is blocked by debris, or the air flow is blocked due to unreasonable pipe layout, the flow will be affected.
  3. Air compressor internal failure: If the internal parts of the air compressor, such as the filter element and air valve, are damaged or worn, it will also affect the flow output of the air compressor.
  4. Gas leakage: In the connecting pipeline between the air compressor and the gas-using equipment, if there is a gas leak, the actual flow to the gas-using equipment will be reduced.
  5. Change in demand for gas-using equipment: If the demand for gas-using equipment changes, such as increasing the gas consumption or changing the gas consumption method, and the air compressor is not adjusted accordingly, the flow may not be able to meet the demand.

In view of the above situation, we can take the following measures to solve the problem:

  1. re-selection: According to the actual application requirements, re-select the appropriate air compressor model and specifications.
  2. Clean the intake and exhaust ports: Regularly clean the air inlet and exhaust port of the air compressor to ensure unimpeded airflow.
  3. Check and repair the air compressor regularly check the internal parts of the air compressor, and replace or repair it in time if it is damaged or worn.
  4. Check gas leakage: Conduct a comprehensive inspection of the connecting pipeline, and repair the leakage point in time.
  5. Adjustment of gas equipment: Adjust the output flow of the air compressor according to the change of the demand of the gas equipment to ensure that the gas demand is met.

To sum up, when the pressure of the air compressor reaches the preset value but the flow rate does not reach the expected level, we need to analyze and investigate from many aspects, find out the problem and take corresponding measures to solve it.
