Wholesale 2118342 Compressor Spare Parts Oil Filters Distributors

Short Description:

The main function of the oil filter in the air compressor system is to filter out the metal particles and impurities in the air compressor lubricating oil, so as to ensure the cleanliness of the oil circulation system and the normal operation of the equipment.
Oil filter replacement standard:
1. The design life of the filter element of the oil filter is usually 2000 hours. It must be replaced after expiration. Secondly, the oil filter has not been replaced for a long time, and external conditions such as overload conditions may cause damage to the filter element. If the environment around the air compressor room is poor, shorten the replacement time. When replacing the oil filter, follow each step in the user manual.
2. When the oil filter is blocked, it should be replaced in time. The oil filter block alarm setting value is usually 1.0-1.4bar.

The harm of air compressor oil filter timeout:
1. Insufficient oil return after plugging leads to high exhaust temperature, shortening the service life of oil and oil separation core;
2. Insufficient oil return after plugging leads to insufficient lubrication of the main engine, shortening the service life of the main engine;
3. After the filter element is damaged, unfiltered oil containing a large number of metal particles and impurities enters the main engine, causing serious damage to the main engine.

Product Description

The working principle of the screw air compressor oil filter is to keep the lubricating oil clean by filtering the impurities in the oil, so as to protect the normal operation of the air compressor host. When the compressor is running, the lubricating oil passes through the oil filter under the pressure difference before and after the filter element, and the filter element can filter out the impurities in the oil and keep the lubricating oil clean. If the filter is blocked, it will lead to insufficient oil supply and oil and gas temperature rise, which will affect the service life of the moving parts of the host‌.

Structure and function of oil filter

The oil filter is usually composed of a filter element, a housing and a differential pressure transmitter. The filter element is the core part of the filtration, usually made of microporous materials, which can filter out impurities and particles in the lubricating oil. The shell is used to protect the filter element and provide installation interface, while the differential pressure transmitter is used to monitor the blockage of the filter element. When the filter element is blocked to a certain extent, the transmitter will send a signal to prompt the user to replace the filter element‌.

Oil filter maintenance and replacement timing

Oil filter maintenance mainly includes regular inspection and replacement of the filter element. When the pressure difference transmitter sends a signal, the blockage of the filter element should be checked in time, and whether to replace it according to the actual situation. In general, the replacement cycle of the filter depends on the use of the environment and the cleanliness of the lubricating oil. In harsh environments, the filter element may need to be changed more frequently to keep the lubricating oil clean‌.

The role of oil filter in screw air compressor

The oil filter plays a vital role in the screw air compressor. It can filter out impurities and particles in the lubricating oil to prevent these impurities from entering the host system, thus protecting the normal operation of the moving parts of the host. If there are too many impurities in the lubricating oil, it will lead to insufficient oil supply, oil and gas temperature rise, and then affect the service life and performance of the main engine‌.
