Thread Content
What should be considered regarding the piping layout of the lubricating oil system associated with the compressor unit, and which factors need to be taken into account?
Pay special attention to the following points: 1. The pipelines should be clean; stainless steel pipes should be used whenever possible, and TIG welding should be employed for the welds； When carbon steel pipes are used, chemical cleaning is necessary; the welds should at least be prepared using TIG welding. If the pipeline is long, several flange connections should be installed to facilitate cleaning. 2. The return oil pipe must have a certain slope to ensure smooth oil return. 3. Try to install as few valves as possible in the pipeline layout.
