In order to ensure the normal operation of the screw air compressor, it is necessary to replace some things from time to time, such as lubricating oil, oil filter, pre-filter, air filter, oil and gas separator, etc., and the replacement of these things is strictly Due to the limited time, these parts must be replaced after the screw air compressor has been used for a certain period.

1. Lubricating oil

The replacement time of screw air compressor oil can be controlled at about 500 hours for the first use, and can be changed every 3000 hours afterwards.

2. Oil filter

The replacement time of the screw air compressor oil filter for the first time is 500 hours of use, and it can be replaced at about 1500 hours in the future.

3. Pre-filter

The pre-filter of the screw air compressor must be cleaned every ten days or so, and the harsh working environment can shorten the time. (Non-essential equipment)

4. Air filter

When the screw-type air compressor has reached the set time of 1000 hours, or there is a corresponding label prompt, the filter must be cleaned or replaced. If the working environment of the airframe is poor, the use time of the air filter element can be shortened accordingly.

5. Oil-gas separator

During the use of the screw air compressor, if the indicator light is on or the oil pressure exceeds the normal working value, the oil fine separator must be tested/replaced. The general replacement time is about 3500 hours, depending on the specific working environment.

Warm reminder: During the detection/replacement of the oil and gas separator, it is necessary to ensure that no debris falls into the oil drum to prevent affecting the operation of the air compressor.

If you neglect to replace these things in order to save money or because of the trouble, then after a period of time, it is not only these accessories that need to be replaced, but the entire air compressor needs to be repaired or replaced directly. Big parts.

Of course, all replacement/cleaning parts depend on the quality and life of parts and working conditions, so as to avoid misjudgment and lead to untimely maintenance or excessive maintenance
