Oil-free lubrication for reciprocating compressors
Thread Content
The large reciprocating compressors used by everyone are equipped with oil-free lubrication; I’d like to share my experience to help us all improve together
There are currently no clear standards for oil-free lubrication; they are all enterprise-specific standards. Generally, the crankcase is lubricated with grease, while piston rings are made of self-lubricating materials such as polytetrafluoroethylene
Our company has a Swiss \"SULZER\" lubrication-free labyrinth piston compressor; we recently carried out maintenance on it, so I posted a thread about it – you might want to take a look; it could be useful to you. Here is the link to the post: http://bbs.hcbbs.com/thread-845624-1-1.html
I’ve used Wuyou lubricant – is there more than just what you want to share?
Reply to 4# A'Dai A Mu: The reciprocating compressors in our factory use oil-free lubrication for their cylinders; there is a separation chamber after the cylinder packing seal is in place, while the crankshaft and crosshead are lubricated with oil
The reciprocating compressors produced by the British company PBL feature an oil-free lubrication design; with minimal oil used for lubrication, the compressors do not require lubrication of the cylinder pistons and packing within the first 5 minutes of operation. After that, an oil injection pump must be activated to supply lubricating oil.
The cylinders in stages 4 and 5 of our factory are oil-lubricated. The cylinders in the other sections are oil-lubricated. Each section of the filler is oil-lubricated.
Oil-free lubrication reciprocating compressors refer mainly to those in which no oil is injected into the cylinders
I know that cylinders use oil-free lubrication; what is it that you, the original poster, would like to discuss?
The so-called high-pressure oil-free machines these days generally refer to those with minimal or no compressors, whereas medium- and low-pressure piston machines do not require lubrication for either the cylinders or the packing, making them true oil-free machines.
