Potential risks of irregular drainage of air compressors

       Shandong Rightmech Machinery Technology Co., Ltd. is a manufacturer engaged in the research and development, design, production, sales and service of air compressors. The products include permanent magnet variable frequency air compressors, two-stage permanent magnet variable frequency air compressors, and laser cutting supporting air compressors.  , Oil-free air compressors, mobile air compressors, low, medium and high pressure air compressors, centrifugal air compressors and compressed air purification equipment.  It has a complete mechanical manufacturing system and is well-equipped.  The use of advanced technology and a higher level of domestic manufacturing technology ensures the high efficiency, reliability and technological advancement of each air compressor, making it more cost-effective than similar products.

        During the operation of the air compressor, the compressed air will produce a certain amount of moisture.  In order to ensure the normal operation of the air compressor and prolong its service life, it is very important to drain the moisture in the air compressor regularly.  However, some users may not follow the prescribed intervals for draining due to negligence or other reasons.  The editor of this article will discuss with you the possible impact of irregular drainage of the air compressor.


 


Moisture stagnation leads to corrosion: Moisture stagnation inside the air compressor may cause corrosion of internal parts.  This corrosion can negatively affect the performance of the air compressor, increasing the chances of failure.  Long-term corrosion can cause component damage or even require replacement.

Reduced air quality: Irregular drainage of air compressors can cause moisture to remain in the compressed air, affecting air quality.  Compressed air with high moisture content may reduce the operating efficiency of equipment and may adversely affect some applications that require high air quality.

Increased repair costs: Corrosion from moisture and reduced air quality can cause equipment to require more frequent repairs.  This will increase the operating cost of the equipment and reduce its overall economic benefits.

Affect the cooling effect: Moisture in the air compressor will not only cause corrosion, but also affect the cooling effect.  Moisture trapped inside the cooler may reduce the cooling effect and cause the air compressor temperature to rise.  High temperature operation may reduce the life and efficiency of the air compressor.

Decreased performance of the oil-water separator: Irregular drainage may cause the moisture content in the oil-water separator to exceed the standard, affecting the normal operation of the oil-water separator.  This reduces the life of the separator, which in turn affects the performance and efficiency of the air compressor.

       To sum up, the irregular drainage of the air compressor may cause many negative effects on the equipment.  In order to ensure the efficient and stable operation of the air compressor and prolong its service life, it is recommended that users drain water at recommended intervals.  At the same time, regularly check the drainage system of the air compressor to ensure its normal operation.
