Although screw air compressors have a long service life, necessary maintenance and care are still necessary. The air compressor can reach its most ideal working state under maintenance and care, which can extend the overall life of the machine and equipment and shorten the downtime of faults. When the air compressor is in a clean and low temperature environment, the maintenance time can be appropriately extended.
Precautions for using screw air compressors:
1. People who operate, repair and maintain screw air compressors must be qualified
2. The air compressor cannot be reversed. Before the first use or after a systematic overhaul, it is necessary to confirm whether the rotation direction of the motor is consistent with the regulations before starting the compressor
3. When disassembling high-temperature components, wait until the temperature cools to the ambient temperature before proceeding
4. The air intake port is not allowed to be blocked when the compressor is running
5. Do not use the air compressor in an environment where the pressure and temperature exceed the specified value
6. After maintenance and before starting the machine, it is necessary to ensure that all safety devices have been reinstalled and the tools have been removed.
Daily maintenance methods:
1. Check the position of the air filter and coolant liquid
2. Check all hoses and hose joints for damage and leakage
3. Check whether the consumables have reached the state of shutdown and replacement
4. Check the discharge of condensed water. If the discharge is too small or there is no discharge, it is necessary to shut down and clean the water separator
Regular maintenance methods:
1. Check the oil level, exhaust temperature and exhaust pressure every day, and check for abnormal sounds
2. Before starting the machine every week, the separator and drain valve need to be opened to drain the condensed water, check whether the equipment has leakage, and check the wear of the safety valve and belt
3. Regularly check the intake control valve, minimum pressure valve, electric control box connection terminal, safety valve, cooling fan and other devices
4. Regularly clean and clean the cooler, and test the reliability of the safety valve
5. Regularly replace the oil filter element and oil separator filter element
