The oil temperature is low, so the oil pump won’t start
Thread Content
In winter, the oil temperature is low, making it difficult for the lubricating oil pump of the compressor to circulate properly, which affects production operations. Are there any good solutions?
Just add an electric heater to the fuel tank; it won’t cost much
This requires contacting the manufacturer. We already have a heater on board, but it’s quite small; it’s definitely not sufficient to heat the oil in the entire oil tank. Replacing the heater would likely require shutting down operations for some time – it’s not clear whether that’s feasible or not! Is there a direct way! Steam tracing is inconvenient for oil circuit systems.
Try using electric heat tracing; it’s even better than steam heat tracing
Agree with the opinion from the 2nd floor – install electric heating tubes in the fuel tank.
Just add an electric heater to the fuel tank
There’s nothing else to do; we have to find a way to heat the fuel tank. Could it be that the oil pump doesn’t start because of too high a load at startup? If so, should I enable the shortcut?
Low-temperature lubricating oil can also be chosen.
I’m not sure if the power of the fuel tank heater can be increased further. Generally, the electric heaters used for fuel tanks are sufficient; usually, three to four sets are used. Why won’t your fuel pump start? I’m not sure. It can’t be because the oil temperature is low, right?
That shouldn’t be the case. Generally, fuel tanks are equipped with electric heaters. And it can maintain a constant temperature
A normally designed electric heater will suffice; after heating for a while, it will get hot again. Once the oil pump is started, it can remain running, and gradually the oil will heat up
