Air compressor sales representatives often encounter customer inquiries.
"Can I use the compressed air produced by the air compressor as it is?" The answer is no. The air compressed by the air compressor is cooled by the rear cooler, separated by the steam separator and stabilized by the buffer tank. Generally, at saturation and 100% relative humidity, impurities such as oils and solids will appear. Compressed air cannot be used directly and must be dried and cleaned. Therefore, it must be equipped with a suitable air compressor aftertreatment device. for example:
Gas storage, pipeline filters, dryers, etc.
1. Air storage Air storage has three main functions. One is to store compressed air to meet the rapidly increasing gas consumption of gas appliances and ensure stable gas consumption. The second is to stabilize the air pressure and eliminate pulsation of the air flow in the pipeline. The third is cooling and filtering, which lowers the temperature of the compressed air entering the air storage tank to achieve a pre-cooling effect.
2. Pipeline Filter The role of the pipeline filter is to filter most of the moisture, dust and oil in the compressed air. According to the degree of filtration, pipeline filters can be divided into primary filtration and microfiltration.
3. There are three ways to dry compressed air in an air compressor: pressurization, cooling and adsorption. Common dryers on the market are freeze dryers (also called freeze dryers) and adsorption dryers. Their function is to remove water, oil and dust, which should not be underestimated to protect equipment and improve product quality. However, not all industries need to be equipped with desiccant dryers, only the food, pharmaceutical, and other industries use desiccant dryers.
Compressed air produced by air compressors usually needs to be treated before being used directly. Compressed air quality and purity can be affected by several factors such as environment, oil lubrication, filters and dryers. For example, some air compressors are not oil-free air compressors, so compressed air processed by non-oil-free air compressors can contain contaminants such as oil, water, and dust. There is a nature. Compressed air must therefore be dried at the outlet of the air compressor. It performs process steps such as filtration and cooling to obtain compressed air that meets the needs of specific applications.
memory:
To keep track of compressed air quality, a quality air compressor must be selected for aftertreatment. Please contact us for refrigeration dryers, adsorption desiccant dryers and filters.
