Bad lubricant oil of air compressor, what will happen?
1. The oil temperature is too high, the thermal deformation is large, causing damage.
After the air compressor is working for a period of time, the oil temperature rises sharply due to the improper amount of lubricating oil or overload operation. Some parts will melt and cause failure; some parts have large thermal deformation, which causes the precision to drop; some parts are at high temperature. The strength is reduced and causes damage.
2, vibration, noise, serious environmental pollution
When the air compressor starts, sometimes it will make a squeak. If the sound is loud and continuous, the bearing may be damaged and the gear may be worn. If the sound is large, the gear may be damaged or foreign matter may be stuck. Sometimes there is a large jitter, which may be caused by poor transmission or gear and bearing wear. In these cases, the environment is seriously polluted, and the production site loses its sense of security and affects production. At this time, it is necessary to carry out the cover inspection.
3, the operation is not working, the power loss is large
During the working process of the air compressor, the transmission parts sometimes get stuck, and there are phenomena such as intermittent operation and uneven operation. In this case, the air compressor cannot normally transmit the load, transmit the motion, and the energy loss is particularly large.
4, oil spill
After the air compressor is running for a period of time, the cabinet may leak oil due to damage to the seal ring or loose screws. Occasionally, due to frequent cold start (oil foaming) or too high oil level, oil leakage at the vent plug may occur, causing environmental pollution.
5, the friction pair is poorly lubricated, resulting in surface wear, pitting, gluing
The surface of the friction pair typically represents a part of the meshing transmission such as a gear pair. Under the harsh working conditions, a good oil film cannot be formed between the meshing surfaces or is quickly destroyed, and the surface will be worn, pitting, gluing, The form of tooth surface failure such as plastic deformation makes the air compressor unable to work normally. Shafts and bearings are also prone to such failures.
