Oil Separator FuSheng 2116019888 Screw Compressor Air Oil Separator

Air Oil Separator

The role of the oil separator is to separate the oil and air mixture. Under normal use, the oil separator has a life of about 4,000 hours, but the quality of the lubricant and the filtration accuracy of the air have an important effect on its life. The maintenance and replacement cycle of the oil separator must be shortened in harsh environments.

In the air receiver/oil separator, most of the oil is removed from the air/oil mixture by centrifugal action. The remaining oil is removed by the oil separator. The oil is collected in the lower part of air receiver/oil separator, which serves as an oil tank. The oil system is provided with a thermostatic bypass valve. When the oil temperature is below its set point, the bypass valve shuts off the supply to the oil cooler and the oil cooler is bypassed. Air pressure forces the oil from the air receiver/oil separator through the oil filter and oil stop valve into the compressor element. The bypass valve starts opening the supply from the cooler when the oil temperature has increased to the set point. At approx. 15 ˚C (27 ˚F) above the set point, all the oil flows through the oil cooler. An oil stop valve prevents the compressor element from flooding with oil when the compressor stops.
