The most important part of an air compressor is the oil filter (also known as the oil grid). A good filter can timely remove impurities in the air compressor oil, ensuring that the air compressor can be used normally. The air compressor oil filter is a device used to filter oil and is a vulnerable component.

The function of the air compressor oil filter is to filter out metal particles, impurities, etc. in the lubricating oil of the air compressor, ensuring the cleanliness of the oil circulation system and protecting the safe operation of the main engine.

Material of air compressor oil filter: filter paper

The service life of the air compressor oil filter is usually 1500-2000 hours and can be adjusted according to environmental conditions. The set value for the oil filter blockage alarm is generally 1.0-1.4 bar.

Hazards of prolonged use of air compressor oil filters:

1. Insufficient oil return leads to excessively high exhaust temperature, shortening the service life of oil and oil separation cores; Resulting in insufficient lubrication of the main engine, severely shortening its lifespan;

2. After the filter element is damaged, unfiltered oil containing a large amount of metal particle impurities enters the host, causing serious damage to the host.

Before starting the screw air compressor, the corresponding items should be checked and the startup steps should be followed to ensure the normal operation of the compressor, so as not to have any faults, and even if there are faults, they can be detected in a timely manner.
