One of the most common ways to check if your air compressor tank is leaking air is to hear it closely. Try implementing a system in which someone will walk close to the tank and search for any hissing nois.
[pdf] The principle of rotary screw air compression is really no different than reciprocating (piston) compression. Both are positive displacement machines that take in a fixed volume of air at atmospheric p.
[pdf] The reasons for the high exhaust temperature of screw air compressors : 1. High return air temperature; 2. The motor has a large heating capacity; 3. High compression ratio; 4. High condensation pressure; 5. Improper selection of refrigerant.
