Can screw compressors be used outdoors?

It’s used for things like instrument air – is it sufficient to just increase the protection level?
It depends on your protection level; generally, there is a shelter on site

The outlet temperature of the air compressor is approximately 8 degrees lower than the ambient temperature. When it comes to the air used for instruments, the air dew point must be taken into account; even with an oil and water separator, it isn’t possible to remove all impurities completely. The extreme temperatures in the area also need to be considered, so it’s best to have the air compressor manufacturer design the system for you.:)
It can be used outdoors, and it is necessary to improve its protection level.
Yes, it can be used outdoors, but it’s best to set up a shelter to protect it from rain and sunlight
It doesn’t cost much to build a steel shed! Both the equipment and the operators need protection from wind, snow, as well as sunlight and rain.
