Air compressors are the basic products of industrial modernization. It is often said that electrical and automation have the meaning of full pneumatic. The air compressor is to provide air source power. It is the core equipment of the pneumatic system and the main body of the electromechanical air source device. It is a device that converts the mechanical energy of the prime mover (usually an electric motor or a diesel engine) into gas pressure energy. Air pressure generating device. Here are five simple steps for you to maximize the efficiency of your air compressor.

1. Before using the air compressor, you should carefully read the air compressor manual. Don’t take it for granted that you have been in contact with many models and start to operate. If some details are ignored, it will often cause unnecessary losses.

2. In order to effectively save power, users must pay attention to the ventilation and heat dissipation of the air compressor room. If the ambient temperature of the air compressor room is too high, it is equivalent to reducing the efficiency of the air compressor, reducing the exhaust volume, and increasing energy consumption. Every 100°C increase in the ambient temperature is equivalent to a 3% reduction in the efficiency of the air compressor.

3. In addition, the air compressor room should be kept clean and tidy. The environment of the air compressor room is too dirty, which will easily cause the filter, oil filter, and oil-gas separator of the air compressor to be clogged, and the lubricating oil will accelerate pollution and be replaced frequently.

4. Carry out regular maintenance on the air compressor, try to use the original parts. If the air compressor is poorly maintained or not maintained for a long time, small problems will accumulate into major failures, and the life of the machine will be significantly shortened.

5. The air compressor should supply air as much as possible. If the air compressors are distributed in various parts of the plant and the pipelines are independent, it will not only increase the purchase cost, but also increase the pipeline cost and operation and maintenance costs. Especially if the pipeline leaks seriously and is not found in time, it is thought that the gas consumption is insufficient, and a newly purchased air compressor is used to supplement the insufficient gas consumption, resulting in waste. Calculated based on a 7kg/cm2g, 10mm leak point, assuming that the electricity cost is RMB 1 8,000 hours a year will waste 320,000 yuan in electricity bills.
