For many air compressor enterprise users, the cost of air compressor equipment is very expensive, so there are often high requirements for the product quality of the air compressor purchased.

When many enterprise users buy it, the manufacturer will have a guarantee for how many years it can be used, but to be honest, the air compressor of the same brand and model will be used in different enterprise operating environments and in the hands of different people. The working life of the air compressor It is also not the same. Some can be used for 5 to 10 years, while others are only used for 2 to 3 years. There are several factors that affect the service life of the air compressor.

 1. Environmental factors, different regions and environments with large temperature differences will have a certain impact on the service life of the air compressor. The other is the surrounding environment when the air compressor is used. The life of the machine also has an impact.

2. Is the maintenance on time? If an air compressor is maintained in accordance with the regulations, its service life must be longer than that of an air compressor that is not maintained.

3. The speed of the screw air compressor has an inevitable relationship with the maintenance cycle of the main engine. When the speed of the machine head is high, the wear of the bearing directly affects the service life of the bearing. The excessively high speed of the air compressor can easily cause the screw head to hold. The state of death.

   The core component of the screw air compressor is the screw rotor, and the life of the screw rotor determines the service life of the air compressor. Imported products can often be used for about 15 years, while domestically produced machines can only be used for about 5 years, which is why imported The reason why the price of the air compressor is higher than that of the domestic air compressor.

Therefore, in order to prolong the service life of the air compressor of the production enterprise and save unnecessary economic loss and waste, the following matters should be paid attention to when the air compressor is in operation:

1. It is necessary to create a stable and efficient operating environment for the efficient and normal operation of the air compressor, then it is necessary to keep the station clean, dry, and well ventilated. For example, the air storage tank needs to be placed in a well-ventilated environment to avoid high temperature environments. Direct baking and direct sunlight cause exposure,

2. The maximum pressure is not allowed to exceed the specified maximum range value.

3. Ensure that the safety valve is sensitive and effective.

4. The gas storage tanks and gas pipelines must be tested every two years as a cycle to see if they need to be replaced normally.

5. When we start the machine, we must start carrying it under no load, and wait until everything is normal before starting to gradually enter the load operation.

6. It is forbidden to stand in front of the air compressor outlet. When the air supply valve needs to be opened, the corresponding air pipelines should be kept intact.

7. When electric leakage, air leakage, oil leakage, water leakage, and the value of each parameter exceed the specified range value, etc., the air compressor should be stopped immediately for inspection, and normal operation can be restored after finding and analyzing the faults and troubleshooting.
