FAQS about Screw air compressor working condition analysis

Does a screw compressor need condition monitoring?

This study focuses on the condition monitoring of a screw compressor in instrument air service. Condition monitoring through vibration analysis and oil analysis are heavily relied upon in industry to determine maintenance requirements.

What is a screw compressor?

Screw compressors are positive displacement compressors that utilize a pair of helical lobed rotors in a casing. The screw compressor has no valves;therefore, the location of the suction and discharge ports determines the compressor cycle. This study focuses on the condition monitoring of a screw compressor in instrument air service.

Can condition monitoring technology provide early screw compressor malfunction warnings?

Findings –The study considers utilizing condition monitoring technology to provide early screw compressor malfunction warnings. The results of the study indicate that both vibration analysis and oil analysis provide early warning of pending mechanical failures. Oil analysis was found to be more effectiveat providing advance notice.

How can vibration analysis and oil analysis help a screw compressor?

Design/methodology/approach – The research analyzes the ability of vibration analysis and oil analysis on a screw compressor in an oil and gas plant. The vibration data and oil data were collected from commissioning thru failure. The data is presented to demonstrate each technology’s ability to provide advance warning of the failure.

Why is screw compressor used in refrigeration & air conditioning industry?

ABSTRACT The screw compressor is widely used in refrigeration and air conditioning industry due to it high efficiency. The screw compressor are said to have an efficiency of about 75% to 80%. The one percent of efficiency of the screw compressor is lost due to some of the losses which restrict it from being 100% efficient.

How efficient is a screw compressor?

The screw compressor are said to have an efficiency of about 75% to 80%. The one percent of efficiency of the screw compressor is lost due to some of the losses which restrict it from being 100% efficient. The project aim is to analyze that 20% to 25% losses which cause due to vibration and heat losses.

Screw air compressor intake valve oil injection

Screw air compressor intake valve oil injection

When the inlet/unloader valve is open, the air enters the compressor screw element. The screw element works like a pump and it compressed the air. During this process, oil is injected in the element. The oil is there to cool the air, as the air gets very hot during compression. [pdf]

Screw air compressor safety valve has wind

Screw air compressor safety valve has wind

Check the isolation of the motor windings. Should be in the mage-ohms (you need an isolation tester / high voltage ohm meter for this). Check the voltage when the compressor is running. If the voltage drop significantly when the compressor starts/runs, you have a bad connection somewhere. [pdf]
