What oil is used in the air compressor

2026-04-14Views:

Special oil is usually used in air compressors. These oils are divided according to their performance and applicable compressor types, and are mainly divided into the following types:

1. mineral oil type

  • features: The price is relatively low, but the performance under high temperature and harsh working conditions may not be as good as synthetic oil.
  • Life usually within 2000 hours.
  • Applicable Scenarios: Suitable for general-purpose air compressors, especially when there are certain requirements for cost.

2. semi-synthetic oil type

  • features: Combining some characteristics of mineral oil and synthetic oil, the performance is improved compared with mineral oil.
  • Life: Between mineral oil and synthetic oil.
  • Applicable Scenarios: Suitable for air compressors that have certain requirements for performance but do not want to bear excessive costs.

3. synthetic oil type

  • features: Excellent high temperature stability, oxidation resistance and wear resistance, suitable for high-demand working environment and large compressors.
  • Life: It can reach about 8000 hours.
  • Applicable Scenarios: Suitable for long-term operation under severe conditions such as high temperature, high humidity, and high exhaust temperature, as well as large compressors and high-demand working environments.

4. special type air compressor oil

  • food grade air compressor oil: Specially used in food processing and other industries with extremely high hygiene requirements.
  • Other special models: According to specific needs, there may also be other special types of air compressor oil, such as fire-resistant hydraulic oil.

5. considerations for selecting air compressor oil

  • air compressor type: Different types of air compressors have different requirements for oil, such as piston type, screw type, centrifugal type, etc.
  • Working pressure and temperature: High pressure and high temperature environments require synthetic oils with better performance.
  • Running time: Long-running air compressors need to choose oil with a longer life.
  • Cost: Choose the right oil according to the budget and actual needs.

6. considerations

  • prohibit Mixing: It is forbidden to mix different brands of air compressor oil. When replacing, you must put all the old oil and follow the relevant oil change precautions.
  • Periodic replacement: According to the use of the compressor and oil performance indicators, regularly replace the air compressor oil to ensure the normal operation of the compressor and extend the service life.

In summary, the types of oil used in the air compressor are diverse, and the selection needs to be considered comprehensively according to specific needs and conditions.
