Air compressor issues

Thread Content

Is it possible for an air compressor to produce liquid water when compressing air?

It’s entirely possible. You can dehumidify it first and then compress it. Or set the liquid discharge of the gas-liquid separator.

Reply to 2# shmily327: But compressed air carries heat with it – could that cause the water to vaporize? I remember there being a type of axial flow compressor that allows water to be sprayed into it

Reply to 1# jinjinaaaaaaaa: Isn’t there a separate gas-water separator after compression?

Theoretically, it shouldn’t happen, but in practice it’s not necessarily the case

Of course water can be pressed out, because air also contains water! Most air compressors come equipped with a drainage system, but it isn’t effective enough for thorough drainage. If the requirements for use are not high, they can be used directly. If higher requirements are needed, a set of drying equipment can be added. However, a buffer tank should be added before use, and the water should be drained regularly.
