Treatment method of carbon deposition in screw air compressor

The frequency conversion permanent magnet air compressor has been in operation for a long time, and the maintenance is not carried out according to the air compressor manual. Carbon deposits are inevitable in the oil circuit and machine head. what is the reason?

How to clean it properly? What are the causes of carbon deposits in screw air compressors? What to do about carbon deposits in screw air compressors? Let us first look at the causes of carbon deposition:

1. Temperature.

We have always emphasized the operating temperature of the air compressor, because high temperature is easy to trip. The air compressor accelerates the oxidation of lubricating oil under long-term high temperature. The ambient temperature of the air compressor is designed in strict accordance with the 52°C standard, and it can only leave the factory after passing the high temperature test standard.

2. Air filter.

The air filter removes dust and impurities during the filtering process, but after long-term use, careless cleaning or damage to the air filter element may cause carbon deposition in the permanent magnet air compressor.

3. Lubricating oil quality.

When purchasing an air compressor, the general manufacturer will inform you how to use lubricating oil: different types of lubricating oil cannot be mixed, use good lubricating oil, and replace and clean it regularly. Carbon from lubricating oils is already common. What to do about carbon deposits in screw air compressors? The above summarizes the reasons for the carbon deposition of the main engine. In short, it is necessary to do a good job in the maintenance of the air compressor to prevent the air compressor from shutting down due to human reasons.

Air compressor cleaning method: Start the air compressor to make the air compressor run normally. After the oil temperature is normal, turn off the air compressor, open the oil cap, pour in the cleaning agent in proportion, and tighten the oil cap; start the air compressor again and run for 30-120 minutes; open the oil outlet, clean up the waste oil, add new oil, and start Observe the operating parameters after operation. Note: This method is not recommended for equipment with serious carbon deposits. It is recommended to return to the factory for maintenance and then clean the entire oil circuit system. If the host is severely coked or worn, stuck, etc., it is recommended to return to the factory for maintenance.
