An alarm triggered by a dirty air filter means that when the air filter is dirty or blocked, the resistance of the air through the filter increases, and negative pressure is generated at the compressor inlet. Oil filter: Due to the long-term operation of the air compressor, the impurities in the air are sucked into the compressor and cause the oil filter to be dirty and clogged, causing the pressure difference before and after the oil filter to be too large. Air compressor oil and gas separator failure alarm: the compressed air from the compressor head entrains large and small oil droplets. Large oil droplets are easy to separate when passing through the oil-gas separation tank, while small oil droplets (suspended oil particles below 1um in diameter) must be filtered through the micron and glass fiber filter layer of the oil-gas separation filter element. So that the compressor discharges more pure and oil-free compressed air.

The solid particles in the compressed air pass through the oil core and stay in the filter layer, which causes the pressure difference (resistance) of the oil core to increase continuously. With the increase in the use time of the oil separation core, when the pressure difference of the oil separation core reaches 0.08 to 0.1Mpa, the filter element must be replaced.

Low oil level: Refers to the low oil level in the oil-air separator of the air compressor, and no oil can be seen in the oil level gauge.

The air compressor has poor heat dissipation, and the air compressor oil quantity and quality are abnormal.

The load/no-load control of the air compressor exceeds the operating pressure of the machine.

High oil temperature in the air compressor: Due to the long-term operation of the air compressor, the oil quality is aging, the oil return path is not smooth, the oil filter is blocked, and the compressed air from the air compressor will entrain a small amount of oil and cause the loss of air compressor oil. Causes high oil temperature.

The maintenance industry is a technical service. Engineers first need to have excellent maintenance skills to solve problems. The most important thing is that engineers acquire excellent technology from many years of learning investment, and need to continuously summarize experience and improve in practice. From this process, the investment of engineers is a huge intangible cost. Maintenance work is like checking and distinguishing a few grains of sand from a pile of rice. It is very difficult to find sand, but it is very simple to pick it out after it is found. Outsiders only see the labor of "picking it out" without seeing the "discrimination inspection" "Such more complicated labor.
