The oil from the screw air compressor is leaking out through the air filter
Thread Content
The company has 1 Liuzhou Fuda screw air compressor, model LU-55; during operation, oil leaks out from the dust cleaning port of the air filter. This causes the compressor to shut down due to high temperature. This is the first time I’ve encountered this situation; I don’t know what’s causing it.
The oil-gas separator of that compressor should be checked
There is poor drainage inside the air compressor, and too much water is present
It has been determined that the spring inside the valve is broken, preventing the formation of a one-way passage
It must be that oil is leaking somewhere, forming an oil mist which is then drawn in through the air filter at the inlet.
