How to deal with the high moisture content of air compressor?

In view of the problem that the moisture content of the air outlet of the air compressor is too high, the following measures can be taken to deal with it:

1. post-processing equipment upgrade

1. replace air compressor cooler:

   • regularly replace the screw air compressor cooler to ensure its efficient operation to reduce the exhaust temperature and water content.
   • Replace it with an efficient cold dryer to further improve the drying effect.

2. Upgrading the blowdown valve:

   • replace the automatic drain valve of the cold dryer with an electronic drain valve to reduce failures and ensure that the condensate can be discharged smoothly.

3. Replace the precision filter element:

   • regularly replace the precision filter element of the cold dryer to improve the effect of water and oil removal and reduce the risk of blockage of the sewage pipe.

2. daily management and maintenance

1. strengthen on-duty training:

   • strengthen the water discharge inspection and assessment of on-duty personnel to ensure that they can find and deal with water content problems in time.

2. Regular discharge of condensate:

   • air compressor management personnel should discharge the condensed water in the air compressor and air storage tank every day to prevent moisture accumulation.
   • Install a drain valve at the lower drain outlet of the air tank of the air compressor to regularly drain the accumulated moisture.

3. Regular cleaning and maintenance:

   • use degreaser to clean the cooler every week to reduce the exhaust temperature and improve the cooling effect.
   • A large cycle pickling and descaling cleaning is carried out on the air compressor once a month to improve its cooling effect and service life.
   • The condenser of the air-cooled dryer is purged with compressed air every day to ensure its normal operation and water removal effect.

3. other measures

1. add drying equipment:

   • according to the specific use environment and working conditions (such as the humidity of the inhaled air and the outlet temperature of the air compressor), a cold dryer or an adsorption dryer is installed to further reduce the moisture content in the compressed air.

2. Check the automatic drain:

   • regularly check whether the automatic drainer of the air compressor or the automatic drainer of the air storage tank is blocked to ensure smooth drainage.

3. Optimized piping design:

   • for the case of a long pipeline, it can be considered to add a drainage point in the pipeline to reduce the retention and accumulation of water in the pipeline.

Through the implementation of the above measures, the moisture content in the air outlet of the air compressor can be effectively reduced to ensure that the quality of the compressed air meets the production requirements. At the same time, these measures also help to extend the service life of the air compressor and reduce maintenance costs.
