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 process. This is normally a trouble-free component on. .
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. .
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,. .
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.
[pdf] Let me explain how a rotary screw element is built up. See this example picture of an oil-free screw element. Compressor element (oil-free type). Photo: Atlas Copco Of course, we see the two rotors (male rot. The structure of the compressor head is designed to withstand high pressures and temperatures. It is typically made of durable materials such as cast iron or aluminum to ensure longevity and reliability.
