A customer asked: "my air compressor did not release water for two months, what will be the impact?"If water is not released, the water content in compressed air will increase, which will affect the gas quality and influence the gas equipment at the back end.The oil and gas separation effect becomes worse, the oil and gas separator pressure difference becomes larger, but also causes the machine parts rust.
How is water produced?
Air compressor operating time of the internal temperature of the head is very high, inhalation of natural air moisture, will be in the air compressor during the operation of water vapor.Air storage tanks not only provide a buffer and storage space for compressed air, but also reduce pressure and cool down.When compressed air passes through the gas storage tank, high-speed airflow hits the wall of the gas storage tank and causes it to produce confluence. In the gas storage tank, the temperature drops rapidly and a large amount of water vapor is liquefied to form condensed water.More condensation will form if wet weather or winter comes along.
When does it drain?
Adjust according to the specific operating environment and operating conditions, discharge condensed water or install automatic drainer regularly.Mainly see the moisture content of the air inhalation and air compressor outlet temperature.
