There are pitted areas on the inner wall of the cylinder of the reciprocating compressor; it has been in operation for half a year – what could be the reason?
Let’s briefly describe the medium and operating conditions so that everyone can analyze them.
To determine this, it’s necessary to consult the manufacturer; only they can provide a clear explanation. Check whether the same phenomenon exists in the other cylinder liners as well. It seems to be a problem with the equipment manufacturer. For reference.
It is caused by corrosion; check the medium and analyze the material.
Judging from the appearance, it seems to be caused by uniform erosion of the fluid medium; perhaps there were issues with the requirements you provided to the manufacturer from the start
It is necessary to consult the manufacturer to determine whether it is a quality issue; such a situation would not occur if there was corrosion! In my opinion, it is a quality issue with the manufacturer’s compressors. How many years has it been in use? ? ? ?
What medium? Which manufacturer? What model?
There’s a picture at the start; everything else has to be guessed. It seems to be caused by corrosion – I wonder if the piston is still in good condition.
There is liquid shock; if the medium does not contain liquid, it means too much oil has been injected.
