THE SIGNIFICANCE OF OIL FILTER TO AIR COMPRESSOR

The oil filter is the core component of the screw air compressor lubrication system. Its performance directly affects the operating efficiency, lubrication effect, energy consumption and life of the air compressor.The influence of oil filter on air compressor is mainly reflected in the following three aspects:

1. Oil filter dust removal capacity

Many people mistakenly believe that the higher the filtration accuracy, the better. In fact, the oil filter is based on the adsorption filtration principle, and the filtration accuracy does not need to be too high. Lubricating oil is a viscous liquid, and too high filtration accuracy is not good. Medium filtration accuracy is sufficient. The filtration effect of the oil filter mainly depends on the dust holding capacity, rather than entirely on the filtration accuracy of the oil filter. The oil filter with a large dust holding capacity has relatively small resistance in the middle and late stages. The smaller the resistance, the higher the energy efficiency.

2. Oil filter resistance

If the filter paper is of poor quality and has low air permeability, the resistance will increase over time, which will also affect the energy efficiency of the air compressor.

3. Anti-aging ability of oil filter

An oil filter with weak anti-aging ability will not only fail to play a filtering role in the middle and late stages, but will also form a new pollution source after the filter paper is carbonized, increase the oil pressure difference, and reduce the energy efficiency of the air compressor. In addition to good filtering effect, choosing a high-quality oil filter can also help improve the energy efficiency of the air compressor.
