Oil issues in refrigeration units
Thread Content
Our company uses a refrigeration system with R22 as the refrigerant. The instructions state that the oil discharged by the refrigeration compressor is first separated by the polymer sieve oil separator built into the compressor unit, and then it passes through another vertical polymer sieve oil separator located in the exhaust manifold; the gas emerging from this oil separator contains no more than 5PPM of oil. Question: The oil discharged by the compressor is definitely a mixture of oil and R22. So what is the principle behind the high-molecular sieve oil separator mentioned in the description? ? ? How to achieve oil separation? ? ? Is this similar to the general principle of oil-water separation? ? Thank you for the advice!
Collapse – nobody answered at all. . .
It should be the selective adsorption of oil using the selective adsorption properties of molecular sieves. Its oil-water mechanical separation principle should be different from that of ordinary separators.
What does that mean? I haven’t kept up with the thinking of the experts here.
