We will start our trip through the loop at the same place we will finish: The oil sump. This reservoir is where oil is stored for use in the system. It is usually located in the lower section of a tank-like cylinder, that also houses components used in the air/oil separation. .
Oil from the sump flows through small entry passages around the outside of the filter base and is forced through an opening near the closed side of the filter casing, where it. .
Our next stop, assuming our lubricant has reached its operating temperature will be to the oil cooler. As our lubricant has been subjected to extreme friction and bears the brunt of temperature. .
This is our first stop in our trip through the system. This valve will direct our lubricant towards its next component based on temperature. Just. .
This component, like the radiator in your car, passes the fluid through tubing encased in a block of baffles, designed to optimize heat transfer. Most air-cooled air compressors have a high capacity fan which will force air through the baffles, and out of the cabinet,.
[pdf] FS Synthetic Rotary Screw Air Compressor Oil ISO 46 is a full-synthetic, non-detergent compressor oil formulated to protect rotary screw air compressors against wear and carbon/varnish buildup. Typical service life is 6,000-8,000 hours in normal service.
[pdf] This manual describes the safety precautions, structure and functions of all systems and components, as well as the operation and maintenance methods for the KHE series rotary screw air compressors. The owner and operator shall read the manual carefully.
