  • Oil content of compressed air

    The oil content of compressed air refers to the mass or volume concentration of liquid or solid grease, particles and other impurities carried in the compressed air. This parameter is very important for many industrial applications, because compressed air with high oil content may have a significant impact on some industrial

  • Oil content of oil-free air compressor

    The oil content of oil-free air compressors is usually 0.01ppm. This is a very low oil content, so that the air produced by the oil-free air compressor during the compression process is almost free of oil. In some special applications, such as hospitals, laboratories, schools and other institutions, due to the air

  • Start-up sequence of cold dryer and air compressor

    The starting sequence of the cold dryer and air compressor is: first open the cold dryer, then open the air compressor. At the same time, the shutdown sequence is opposite to the startup sequence, that is, the air compressor is closed first, and then the cold dryer is closed. During the operation, it is necessary to pay attention to the prohibition of frequent opening and closing of the cold dryer to avoid burning out

  • How often is it best to maintain an air compressor?

    Air compressor maintenance cycle usually depends on its running time, working environment, load conditions and other factors. Generally speaking, for the newly purchased air compressor, a maintenance should be carried out after 500 hours of first operation, mainly to replace the oil filter and air filter element.

  • How do you see whether the air compressor is variable frequency?

    To judge whether the air compressor is a frequency conversion type from the appearance, you can pay attention to the following aspects: Motor type: The frequency conversion air compressor is usually equipped with a frequency conversion motor. This motor may be similar in appearance to ordinary motors, but its internal structure and control methods are different.

  • How long can the air compressor run continuously?

    The continuous operation time of the air compressor depends on its type, working environment, load condition, maintenance and other factors. Generally speaking, the screw air compressor can operate continuously for 24 hours. It will automatically load when the air pressure is insufficient, and it will automatically unload when the air pressure is sufficient.

  • Why are there so many power frequency air compressors now?

    Although the permanent magnet frequency conversion air compressor has excellent performance in energy efficiency, noise, maintenance cost, etc., there are still many factories and enterprises that choose to use power frequency air compressor. The main reasons include: low initial purchase cost: compared with permanent magnet frequency conversion air compressor, power frequency air compressor

  • Advantages and disadvantages of power frequency air compressor

    The advantages and disadvantages of the power frequency air compressor are as follows: Advantages: reliable and stable: the power frequency air compressor is an air compressor running at a fixed speed, and the working frequency is a fixed 50Hz. Its operation is stable, not affected by load changes, and can provide compressed air stably for a long time. Because
