Oil-free air compressor use

Oil-free air compressors are widely used in areas that require high cleanliness of compressed air because of their ability to completely avoid lubricating oil pollution. The following are its core uses and technical points:

  • 1. Pharmaceuticals and Biotechnology

      Clean environment guarantee:
      Provide oil-free compressed air for clean rooms and aseptic filling lines, drive HEPA filters and pneumatic valves, and comply with GMP and ISO 8573-1 Class 0 standards.

    • Fermentation oxygen supply:
      deliver sterile compressed air to the bioreactor to avoid oil inhibiting microbial growth.

    • Equipment cleaning:
      Oil-free compressed air is used to clean the reactor or pipeline to prevent chemical residues and secondary pollution.

    • 2. Food and Beverage Processing

    • Direct contact process:
      Avoid oil penetration into the product in the filling and packaging links (such as beverage bottle blow molding and bottle cap sealing).

    • Raw material delivery:
      powder or granular food (such as milk powder, spices) to prevent lubricating oil from contaminating food.

    • Cleaning system:
      -driven food-grade cleaning equipment, in line with HACCP health standards.

      3. Electronics and Semiconductor Manufacturing

    • Precision component protection: It
      is used for purging and cooling in chip manufacturing and lithography machines to avoid oil damage to precision circuits.

    • Clean room control: The
      positive pressure environment of the electronic plant is maintained to prevent dust and particle pollution.

      4. Medical Equipment and Laboratory

    • Breathing gas supply: Provide
      clean gas source for ventilators and anesthesia machines in accordance with medical gas standards (e. g. ISO 7396-1).

    • Laboratory instruments:
      Gas chromatograph, mass spectrometer and other analytical equipment to avoid oil interference test results.

    5. Environmental protection and special process

    • Spraying and painting:
      oil-free compressed air is used for water-based paint spraying to avoid paint film defects caused by oil.

    • Exhaust gas treatment:
      Provide clean carrier gas in the VOCs recovery system to improve treatment efficiency.

    • Hydrogen energy application:
      Provide oil-free compressed air for hydrogen fuel cells or hydrogen production equipment to prevent catalyst poisoning.

      6. Other fields

    • Cultural relics protection:
      purge dust during the restoration of cultural relics to avoid oil residue damage to cultural relics.

    • Deep sea exploration:
      Provide clean compressed air for underwater equipment to prevent marine pollution.

      • of

        technical advantages

        of

      Zero oil pollution:
      the use of self-lubricating materials (such as PTFE coating, ceramic bearings) or piston ring sealing technology, completely eliminate the risk of oil.

    • High reliability: No
      oil-water separator is needed, reducing maintenance nodes, suitable for continuous operation scenarios.

    • Compliance:
      ATEX explosion-proof, ISO 12100 and other safety standards, suitable for flammable and explosive environments.

    Summary

    the core value of oil-free air compressors is their absolute cleanliness, which is suitable for any scenario where oil contact is prohibited. As the industry’s requirements for cleanliness increase, its application in high-end manufacturing, life sciences and new energy fields will continue to expand.
