How often does the air compressor filtration system change?

The replacement cycle of the air compressor filtration system is not a fixed time, but depends on a variety of factors, including the use environment of the air compressor, air quality, filter quality, and manufacturer’s recommendations. The following is a detailed analysis of the replacement cycle of the air compressor filtration system: 1. Air filter (air filter)

Replacement cycle:

• General situation: A good air compressor air filter can be used for 1500 to 2000 hours. If you are using a non-original filter, the general usage time is 2,000 hours, but it can be appropriately extended according to the actual air quality and filter element condition, usually 500 hours.
• Special Environment: If the air compressor is in poor use, such as in places where there are a lot of dust and impurities, such as mines, ceramic factories, cotton mills or wood processing factories, it is recommended to replace the air filter element every 500 hours.
• Daily Maintenance: In order to extend the service life of the air filter, it is recommended to do maintenance at least once a week to clean up the impurities in the filter element.

Precautions:

• When the indicator light of the air filter on the dashboard is on, it should be cleaned or replaced in time.
• If the air filter has clogged the alarm or has reached the predetermined replacement time, it should be replaced immediately.

2. Engine oil filter (oil filter)

Replacement cycle:

• General situation: The use time of a brand oil filtration with better quality can reach 3,000 hours, while the use time of an oil filtration with average quality may be only 2,000 hours.
• Special Environment: For air compressors used in harsh environments, the replacement cycle of oil filtration may need to be shortened.

Precautions:

• It is recommended to check the oil filtration regularly. Once there is a blockage or performance degradation, it should be replaced immediately.
• Every time you change the lubricant, the oil filter should be replaced at the same time.

3. Oil and gas separator (oil component)

Replacement cycle:

• General situation: The replacement cycle of oil and gas separator may be longer than that of air filters and oil filters, usually between 3,000 and 4,000 hours.
• Special Environment: Similarly, in evilFor air compressors and oil and gas separators used in harsh environments, the replacement cycle of oil and gas separators may also need to be shortened.

Precautions:

• The service life of the oil and gas separator will be affected by the quality of the lubricant and the filtration accuracy of the air.
• When the pressure difference at both ends of the oil and gas separator exceeds the alarm value set by the manufacturer (such as 0.12MPa), it must be replaced.

4. Summary

The replacement cycle of the air compressor filtration system is not static, but needs to be adjusted according to actual conditions. To ensure the proper operation of the air compressor and extend its service life, it is recommended that users follow the manufacturer’s recommended maintenance plan and regularly check and maintain the condition of the filter. If the filter is found to be blocked, damaged or degraded, it should be replaced in time. At the same time, maintaining good daily maintenance habits, such as regularly cleaning impurities in the filter element, will also help extend the service life of the filter.
