Common causes and problems of vacuum pumps

Common causes and problems of vacuum pumps

An air compressor is a type of machine that includes machines (mechanical systems) that function to increase the pressure of the gas, helping the energy of the air streams increase and at the same time compressing the gas, causing it to increase in pressure and temperature.

How to operate an air compressor?

How to operate an air compressor?

How to operate a newly purchased air compressor or an air compressor that has not been used for a long time? To meet market needs, companies have different production plans and therefore need to use different compressed air flow rates. On the other hand, companies often have backup machines (that are rarely used for a long time) or companies have seasonal production, so air compressors  operate seasonally. During many years of repairing and maintaining air compressors and air dryers, we have encountered many problems such as: the machine cannot start, the machine stops when it starts under load, when the machine is turned on, it starts to burn....

How to read Hitachi screw air compressor parameters

How to read Hitachi screw air compressor parameters

When coming into contact with a screw air compressor, one of the things the operator must pay attention to is the parameters of the air compressor to understand the air compressor he or she is operating. Many machine operators have asked us about the meaning of the parameters and symbols recorded on the air compressor. To help you better understand the symbols recorded on the machine, in this article we show you how to read the parameters of a Hitachi air compressor.

Drain condensate - Drain the air compressor

Drain condensate - Drain the air compressor

During the process of repairing and maintaining air compressor systems for customer partners, we often receive questions related to condensate discharge and water discharge issues such as: If condensate is not discharged and not discharged properly, what problems will occur? How many ways to discharge condensate? How long does it take to discharge water? How many minutes should condensate be discharged at a time? Knowing when to discharge condensate? How to discharge condensate before starting HISCREW?..etc. Because So, I wrote this article hoping to  answer some of your questions.

Atlas Copco air compressor consumes oil

Atlas Copco air compressor consumes oil

Compressed air is fed into the filter from a pipe connected to port P1. The twisted plate will cause the air flow to swirl. Due to this vortex motion, dust and water particles in the compressed air will be affected by centrifugal force and move outward, hitting the inner wall of the filter cup and flowing to the bottom of the filter cup. Air flows through the air filter, where it is filtered again before flowing to the pressure regulator (pressure regulator).
