Screw-type air compressors often encounter overheating problems, which are mainly manifested in the excessively high exhaust temperature of the screw-type air compressor and hot operating parts. The three major factors of overheating of screw air compressors:

 

1. Environmental factors

  In many cases, it has a great influence on the ventilation and heat dissipation. The main factors affecting the heat dissipation of the air compressor are the following three phenomena: the distance of the air compressor is too close to the wall or other obstacles; and the vicinity of the air compressor There may be other heat sources. In this regard, it is recommended to install and use the air compressor in strict accordance with the installation and use environment requirements of the screw air compressor.



Two, radiator blockage factors

  Because it is possible that when the surrounding environment of the screw air compressor is dusty, it will cause long-term operation and cause a layer of dust or sludge to adhere to the surface of the radiator, which will affect the heat dissipation effect. Dirty oil filter may also cause a certain degree of overheating of the air compressor. Because the oil filter of the screw air compressor will be too dirty to prevent the oil from entering the air compressor at the normal flow rate, the screw air compressor will quickly heat up due to insufficient cooling and lubricating oil. Of course, the cooling oil level is too low. It is suggested that the screw air compressor should be maintained and maintained regularly to avoid the occurrence of the above situation.

 

3. Due to the low oil mark or poor oil quality

  Screw air compressors should use the manufacturer's original special air compressor oil. If other low-grade or inferior oils are used, the back viscosity and specific heat may not reach the standard and cause problems such as excessive temperature.

 

Here is a reminder: Screw air compressors should use original spare parts and maintenance kits, because they must be tested and tested to meet certain technical requirements, which cannot be achieved by counterfeit products and substitutes. Only the original spare parts can guarantee the stability and reliability of the screw air compressor. Once it is interrupted, it will seriously threaten the normal operation of the screw air compressor, which will affect the user's production schedule, production quality and operating efficiency.
