What happens if there is water in the air compressor and it is not discharged?

2026-04-09Views:

If there is water inside the water-lubricated oil-free frequency conversion screw air compressor of Shanghai Granklin Group and it is not discharged in time, it may cause a series of problems:

corrosion and rust: Water contact with metal parts will cause corrosion and rust, which will reduce the service life of the air compressor and may affect its performance.

Air path pollution: Water is brought into the compressed air system, which will pollute the air path and affect the subsequent use of compressed air equipment or processes.

Lubrication problem: Although water-lubricated air compressors use water as a lubricant, excessive moisture will dilute the lubrication effect and cause increased wear of components.

Decreased efficiency: Moisture reduces compression efficiency because the compressibility of water vapor is much lower than that of air, which increases energy consumption during compression.

Icing risk: In a low temperature environment, moisture may freeze, causing pipeline blockage or equipment damage.

Biological contamination: Long-term water accumulation may breed bacteria and other microorganisms, further contaminating compressed air.

Safety hazard: In some cases, the combination of moisture and other components in compressed air (such as oxygen) may form an explosive mixture, which constitutes a safety hazard.

Therefore, regular drainage and maintenance are very important for water-lubricated oil-free variable frequency screw air compressors. It is recommended that users follow the operation manual of Shanghai Granklin Group, regularly check and discharge the water in the air compressor to ensure its normal operation and extend its service life.
