What are the precautions and maintenance tips for using an air booster pump?

Pneumatic Drive

The driving pressure of the air booster pump cannot exceed the specified pressure limit. If it is driven by pipeline gas, there must be a reliable pressure-reducing valve and safety valve. Typically, the driving pressure range of the air booster pump is 2-8 bar.

Pipe connectors

Based on the output pressure and flow rate of the booster pump, select the appropriate inlet and outlet pipeline to ensure it can withstand the pump's maximum output pressure and flow rate. The pipeline diameter connecting to the pump's drive port should be slightly larger than the nominal size of the pump's drive port thread. If the connection diameter becomes smaller, it will greatly affect the pump's operating efficiency! For instance, a decrease in flow rate can significantly impact the output.

Transmitting Medium

The conveying medium for the air booster pump must only be air.

Air pressure boosters cannot compress media other than air to prevent the compressed media from failing to meet purity requirements after boost.

Maintenance and Upkeep

All gas-driven superchargers are lubricated before shipment; no special lubrication maintenance is required during operation. Appropriate lubricant should only be applied during disassembly and repair.

Note: When maintenance requires the replacement of seals or more significant parts, it is recommended to use original equipment manufacturer (OEM) parts.
