Is there information on the structure of reciprocating compressors, their various components, and the steps for starting and stopping them?

Thank you for your reply; I am extremely grateful! Is there an introduction to the structural components?

Are there many places where the compressor leaks? At the filler and nitrogen pressure relief valve?

The main components include: the body (crankshaft housing), intermediate section, oil scraper box, isolation stuffing box, pressure stuffing box, cylinder, intake valve, exhaust valve, poppet valve, and clearance valve (present in some equipment)； Coupling and flywheel, crankshaft (with positioning bearings and main bearing shells), connecting rod (with big end bearings and small end bearings), crosshead, crosshead pin, piston rod, piston body (with piston rings and guide rings) ； Of course, there are also imported filters, intake and exhaust buffer tanks, inter-stage coolers, oil-water separators, outlet check valves, and so on. It is recommended that if you want to learn about compressors, you start by studying their main systems in detail: the air circuit system, the oil circuit system, the cooling system, the nitrogen filling protection system, the air volume control system, the operation and monitoring system, as well as the moving parts

Okay, thank you for the information. Sorry for the trouble

The leakage points are at the gas seal, the gas valve seal, and the cylinder head

The nine major components of a compressor: 1. Cylinder block component 2. Crankshaft component 3. Connecting rod component 4. Crosshead component 5. Piston component 6. Cylinder component 7. Valve component 8. Intermediate shaft component 9. Packing component

Take a closer look at the drawings and compare them with the maintenance photos; its structure isn’t that complicated: lol
