As one of the industrial machines with a wide range of uses, screw air compressors will more or less encounter some common small faults and problems during operation. This time we will understand the causes and solutions of these problems.

1. The screw air compressor cannot be started
The possibility of causing this problem is more than the price, but experienced engineers generally consider the problem from the following aspects:
1). Whether the fuse is burned out, this is a relatively common problem.
2). The relay that protects the machine has lost its effect.
3). Poor contact of the start button. This problem is not very common, because now screw air compressors, unless they are really cheap machines bought at a very low price, generally such problems will not occur, even if they do occur. Very easy to solve.
4). The supply voltage of the screw air compressor is too low.
5). There is a problem with the motor of the machine, which is more complicated. Generally, air compressor manufacturers with relatively strong technical strength have a relatively low probability of such problems.

2. The exhaust pressure of the screw air compressor is too low
You can check whether there is a problem from 4 aspects. The first is the intake valve, the second is the supply of air is excessive, the third is whether the air filter plug of the air compressor is blocked by foreign matter, and the last is to check the oil and gas separation. Whether the core is blocked or not, the above four problems generally cause this situation. However, newly purchased air compressors generally do not have such problems. Generally, air compressors that have been used for many years have such problems.

3. The oil content of the gas produced by the screw air compressor is too high
For those companies that pay great attention to air quality, whether the air contains too much oil is critical. There are many reasons for this problem. There are six main reasons. First, the oil and gas is too high. Second, the return pipe filter or the orifice is blocked. The third is that the oil and gas separation core is damaged. Then there is an oil leak in the oil adjustment system of the air compressor, and the possible cause is that the air production pressure of the air compressor is too low. Finally, it is the problem of the lubricating oil in the province. If the lubricating oil used in the screw air compressor is foamed Too much will cause such problems.

4. The exhaust temperature of the machine is too high
Generally speaking, the temperature that is too high is more than 150 degrees, and the main cause of this kind of situation in the screw air compressor is that the ambient temperature of the machine is too high or the temperature control valve is not working properly, and there is insufficient oil supply. The oil cooler has not been cleaned for a long time. Sometimes the blockage of the oil filter can also cause this situation. There is also a problem with the cooling fan, the thermal resistance is invalid, and so on. If the machine is well maintained, this type of problem is relatively rare.

5. The air compressor cannot be empty
Generally speaking, you can check whether the intake valve is working normally, and you can also check whether the pressure sensor is working normally. In fact, the screw air compressor is a bit like a car. If it is well maintained, its working life will be reduced, and the possibility of problems will be even lower. In many cases, screw air compressors are mostly caused by improper maintenance or methods. Caused by a mistake.
