The smog has become a hot public topic, and people talk about smog as if they are frightened. Haze has a great influence on people's health, then it is right
What is the damage to the air compressor? Today we will conduct an analysis.
If the air compressor has no air intake filter equipment, the suspended particles in the air will directly cause the deterioration of the intake air quality, the particles will mix with the compressor oil, increase the load of the oil filter, and shorten the life of the oil. For centrifugal or oil-free compressors, the particles will also adhere to the rotor, which will affect the dynamic balance of the impeller rotor, resulting in high oscillation values and surges.
On the other hand, it chemically reacts with the internal appearance of the machine, causing damage to components such as rotors, bearings and seals. The increase in turbidity associated with the outer surface of the rotor will inevitably affect the aerodynamic function of the compressor, and the machine function will also decrease.
Of course, at this time, the air compressor needs air compressor air filter as a "mask" to resist external smog. Air filter media for air compressors are often made of wood pulp filter paper, which is mainly used to filter out dust, sand, moisture, oil mist and other impurities suspended in the ambient air.
From the parameters of the air compressor air filter, it can be seen that the air compressor air filter can completely block the PM10 particles and block most of the PM2.5 particles. In the case of normal operation of air compressor air filter, excessive PM2.5 particles will accelerate the reduction of the cross-sectional area of the flow channel, and increase the load of the filter, resulting in greatly shortened filter life.
This situation will lead to a shortened service life of the air compressor air filter, and even a life expectancy of up to 88%; together, the air intake resistance of the air compressor air filter is increased, and the operating energy consumption of the air compressor is increased. We should automatically communicate this situation with the customer, prompting the customer to replace the air compressor air filter in time to ensure the normal operation of the air compressor.
