Consultation on issues related to the use of hydrogen and nitrogen compressor 6M16-80\33.5-8\23-146

This post was last edited by Black gold on 2011-11-20 at 16:02. I noticed that the nameplate on our air, hydrogen, and nitrogen compressors reads: 6M16-80\33.5-8\23-146. The amount of air that can be compressed is decreasing gradually. Apart from pipeline leaks, what other possible causes could there be? Thank you

1. Piston ring leakage 2. Valve leakage 3. Clogging of the dust collector in the intake pipeline 4. Excessively high air temperature 5. Clogged inlet filter

Thank you; they tried to fix it many times without success, and the amount of air that can be pumped in is getting less and less. Experts, how can carbon buildup in the pipes be dealt with? When the valve is removed, there’s only carbon there – how can this be avoided? Too much carbon is very dangerous!!! This post was last edited by asdf1934 on 2007-12-14 at 13:32

Oil-lubricated compressors often suffer from carbon buildup. This carbon buildup not only causes the piston rings to get stuck in their grooves and leads to abnormal operation of the valves, but it also reduces the area of the airflow channels and increases resistance. Under certain conditions, this carbon buildup can catch fire, resulting in explosions in the compressor. This is the danger the original poster is talking about! Measures: 1. Do not supply too much lubricating oil to the cylinder; the gas should be filtered before being drawn into the cylinder, otherwise carbon deposits will form and come into contact with gases containing large amounts of volatile substances, leading to an explosion. 2. Schedule maintenance to regularly clean the oil deposits in the gas storage tanks and pipelines. 3. Remove carbon buildup and deposits from valves, air passages, the internal condenser, and the separator. 4. Replace the lubricant with a high-quality grade. ……

The main reasons for carbon buildup in compressors are as follows: (1) poor quality of lubricating oil; (2) excessively high intake air temperature; (3) damaged piston rings or damaged cylinder walls, which result in backflow of air and lead to excessively high compression temperatures. (4) There is a problem with the compressor’s cooling system.

Thank you, I’ve learned something new again, haha

It hasn’t worked after many repairs, and the inflation volume keeps decreasing, which indicates that the root cause of this low inflation volume has not been identified. It would be good if LZ could explain the specifics of the repairs; also, is there any wear on the cylinder diameter? It might be time to replace the cylinder liner. :lol
