Is there any air-cooled water-lubricated air compressor?

The water-lubricated air compressor does have air-cooled. Water-lubricated air compressors can be divided into water-cooled and air-cooled according to the cooling method.

The working principle of the water lubrication air compressor is to inject water into the main machine through a water lubrication system during the compression process, and the screw rotors are cooled and lubricated. The air-cooled water-lubricating air compressor uses an air-cooled heat dissipation system to cool the compressor. Specifically, the air-cooled water-lubricated air compressor blows the radiator through a fan to disperse the heat generated by the compressor into the air to achieve a cooling effect.

Air-cooled water-lubricated air compressor has the following characteristics:

  1. No water source required: Compared with water-cooled air compressors, air-cooled water-lubricated air compressors do not require additional cooling water sources, and are suitable for areas where water resources are scarce or cooling water supply is inconvenient.

  2. Easy installation: The installation of air-cooled air compressor is relatively simple, and there is no need to configure a cooling water tower or cooling water circulation system, which reduces installation costs and space consumption.

  3. Low maintenance cost: The air-cooled air compressor does not have the maintenance cost of the cooling water system, such as cooling tower cleaning, water quality treatment and other costs, reducing long-term operating costs.

  4. Affected by the environment: The cooling effect of air-cooled air compressors is greatly affected by the ambient temperature. In high-temperature environments, it may be necessary to increase heat dissipation measures or choose a higher power fan to improve heat dissipation efficiency.

  5. Widely used: Air-cooled water lubricating air compressors are suitable for a variety of industrial environments, especially in occasions where compressed air quality requirements are high and water sources are restricted, such as food, medicine, chemical and other industries.

It should be noted that when choosing an air-cooled water-lubricated air compressor, the selection should be carried out according to actual working conditions and requirements to ensure that the performance of the compressor meets production requirements. At the same time, during use, the air-cooled cooling system should be regularly inspected and maintained to ensure its normal operation to extend the service life of the compressor.
