When the air compressor is short of oil or there is a problem with the oil, the air compressor can indeed run for a period of time, but the damage to the equipment is very large, and the air compressor may be directly scrapped after running for a period of time. Of course, the air compressor lubricating oil should not be added too much. If too much oil is added, the normal operation of the equipment will be affected. within the normal range.
1. Due to environmental factors and the quality of the air compressor oil, the quality of the air compressor oil will change during the use process. During the long-term use of the air compressor, it is easy to be invaded by impurities such as dust and water vapor caused by the environment, or by the influence of high temperature, which will cause the air compressor oil to become turbid, the viscosity and consistency will increase, and an oxidation reaction will occur.
2. The lubricating oil of the air compressor should be added and replaced in time to prevent the deterioration of the oil and affect the performance of the equipment. You must know that the deteriorated air compressor oil cannot play a good role in lubrication and rust prevention, and it is easy to cause the wear of the main engine bearing and the rust of the accessories, which will greatly reduce the service life of the air compressor and affect the normal production of the machine.
3. Most of the air compressor suppliers now recommend that users install post-processing equipment such as refrigeration dryers and filters in the air compressor system to minimize the impact of water vapor and dust on the air compressor oil. It can ensure the normal operation of bearings and other parts of the air compressor.
Finally, there is another point we should pay attention to. During the use of the air compressor, the oil level should be controlled within a reasonable range as much as possible. If the oil amount is too much, it will affect the effect, and the oil amount will not be able to achieve air pressure. The effect of machine lubrication and the performance of machine bearings and other components. In short, a series of failures caused by the lack of oil in the air compressor have a very bad impact on the enterprise.
