The summer is coming, how to maintain the air compressor?

1, ambient temperature

The most common cause of compressor overheating is the surrounding temperature and environment. For example: on a hot summer day, is your air compressor placed near the window? Are there any overheated devices next to the air compressor? Is the air compressor equipment placed in a closed room with high temperature?

These are all preventable problems. In order to prevent overheating of the air compressor, make sure that the ambient temperature around the air compressor cannot be too high. The hot summer is coming, if the air compressor is now placed near the window or in a high temperature environment, it needs to be adjusted as soon as possible.

2, oil level

Another common cause of overheating is insufficient compressor oil. We need to check the oil level regularly and change the compressor oil regularly. If you do not add or replace oil, the oil may deteriorate, causing excessive friction, which can cause the air compressor to overheat.

3. Ventilation

In addition to paying attention to the surrounding environment and temperature of the air compressor and the compressor oil, it is also necessary to pay attention to whether the compressor exhaust is normal. If the vent is blocked, the compressor will overheat after a long period of operation. During the installation process, it is necessary to ensure that the compressor is placed in a suitable location, and regularly clean the compressor vents.

4, temperature valve

If the temperature valve fails, the air compressor will overheat. It is recommended to prepare a spare temperature control valve to avoid the overheating of the air compressor and the shutdown. The backup valve can also be used to check whether the current valve is in good working condition or whether it needs to be replaced.
