Jaguar Air Compressor Maintenance - Jaguar Air Compressor Repair - Screw Compressor Maintenance & Repair

Caution for Air Compressors:

1. Air compressors should be placed away from steam, gas-filled areas, and dust飞扬. The intake pipe should be equipped with a filter device. After the air compressor is positioned, it should be securely wedged with wedges, symmetrically.
2. Keep the external surface of the storage tank clean at all times. Welding or hot processing is strictly prohibited near the gas storage tank. The gas storage tank should undergo hydrostatic testing once a year, with the test pressure being 1.5 times the working pressure. The pressure gauge and safety valve should be inspected annually.
3. Operators must be trained and familiar with the structure, performance, and function of air compressors and their auxiliary equipment, as well as the procedures for operation, maintenance, and care.
4. Operators must wear proper work attire, and female staff should tuck their ponytails inside their work hats. Alcohol consumption is strictly prohibited while operating, and engaging in activities unrelated to operation is not allowed. Unauthorized departure from the work station and the decision to replace the operator with non-designated personnel are both forbidden.
5. Before starting the air compressor, perform the required checks and preparation as per regulations, and ensure all valves on the gas storage tank are open. After the diesel engine starts, it must undergo heating operation at low, medium, and rated speeds. Check the readings on all gauges to ensure they are normal before operating under load. The air compressor should gradually increase its load during startup, and only after all parts are operating normally can it run at full load.
6. During the operation of the air compressor, always monitor the instrument readings (especially the pressure gauge), listen to the sounds from all parts. If any anomalies are detected, stop the machine immediately for inspection. The pressure inside the gas storage tank must not exceed the pressure specified on the nameplate. Every 2 to 4 hours, open the intermediate cooler and condensate oil/water drain valve of the gas storage tank 1 to 2 times. Keep the machine clean. Do not use cold water to rinse the compressor after prolonged operation.
7. When the air compressor shuts down, gradually open the exhaust valve of the air storage tank to slowly depressurize, and correspondingly reduce the diesel engine speed to allow the compressor to run at no load and low speed for 5 to 10 seconds. After the air compressor stops, the diesel engine should continue to run at low speed for another 5 seconds before shutting down. In winter, when the temperature is below 5 degrees Celsius, the cooling water without antifreeze should be fully drained after shutdown.
8. When cleaning the heat sink, do not use burning methods to remove pipe oil污. Maintenance tasks such as cleaning and tightening must be performed after shutdown. It is strictly prohibited to direct the air outlet towards people or other equipment when blowing parts with compressed air to prevent injury and damage.
9. Conduct a manual exhaust test on the safety valve of the gas storage tank on a weekly basis to ensure the safety and effectiveness of the safety valve.
10. Ensure the machine is kept clean. After prolonged operation, do not use cold water to rinse the air compressor.
Air Compressor Noise Control
Control of air compressor noise pollution. Noise is an unwanted sound, a public nuisance that has been elevated to the agenda needing to be addressed. Noise pollution is multifaceted, but the classification of noise pollution from air compressors is as follows: noise level at40dBAAbove, there are varying degrees of impact on sleep. Prolonged exposure to noise can often lead to ***deafness, and may also cause ***, poor mental health, nausea, vomiting, and even personal injury accidents.
Air compressors are a widely used general mechanical product, ***employed in industries such as machinery, mining, chemical, and construction. They generate high noise levels with significant impact, having become one of the major sources of environmental noise pollution. Addressing the noise issue of air compressors can enhance product quality at every stage from production to manufacturing. Reducing air compressor noise can greatly contribute to improving people's well-being and environmental quality. The control of air compressor noise pollution requires reasonable measures, and the government has increased investment in this area.
Noise pollution is also a significant factor in environmental pollution. Those living near factories or highways are more or less disturbed by the noise from machinery and vehicles. Including noise pollution indicators as a criterion for evaluating factories and living environments has long been incorporated by the state into the indices for environmental protection compliance. Therefore, equipment production suppliers should also take responsibility and have the obligation to reduce noise pollution during the operation of machinery and equipment through technical means, creating a quieter working and living environment.

Compressor maintenance primarily involves regular upkeep and care of the compressor's main components. This is to ensure the compressor operates normally and reliably, extending the service life of the unit, and keeping the compressor system clean, oil-free, and free of debris.

Method/Step

Air filter maintenance.

The air filter is a component that filters out dust and impurities from the air, with the cleaned air then entering the screw rotor compression chamber for compression.

Handling Method: Air Filter Core, Removes Surface Dust and Impurities

Replace with new filter element

Replacement of oil filter elements.

Oil Filter - Replacement Part (every 500 hours)

Oil and gas separator maintenance and replacement

An oil-gas separator is a component that separates screw oil lubricant from compressed air. Under normal operation, the service life of the fine oil separator is approximately 3,000 hours.

Treatment Method: Oil and Gas Separator Replacement Parts

Maintenance and replacement of lubricating oil for screw air compressor accessories.

Treatment Method: Replacement with New Oil

Points to note

Cooler dust removal - Clean dust from the heat dissipation surface

Safety valve - Check if the action is sensitive

Oil Release Valve - Drain moisture and dirt

Transmission Belt - Adjust Tension

Inspect wear condition or replace
