What is the impact of choosing an oil-free air compressor on air quality?

The impact of choosing oil-free air compressors on air quality is mainly reflected in avoiding oil pollution and ensuring the cleanliness of compressed air. Traditional oil-containing air compressors use lubricating oil to operate equipment. Oil may mix into the air during compression, causing the compressed air to contain impurities such as oil vapor and oil droplets, which affects the product quality or process safety at the gas-using end.

Granklin’s water-lubricated single-screw air compressor adopts oil-free design. Water is used as a lubricating medium to replace traditional lubricating oil. Combined with the compression structure of a single screw and a star wheel, the oil system is fundamentally eliminated. No oil is involved in the compression process, and the output air is completely free of oil pollutants, and its purity is significantly improved.

The impact of this oil-free property on air quality is particularly critical: in medical, food, electronics and other scenarios where high requirements for air cleanliness are required, pure compressed air can avoid oil pollution to the product (such as residual oil stains on the surface of electronic components, food packaging contacting oil stains, etc.), while reducing the risk of equipment failure caused by oil deposition, ensuring the stability of the process and the safety of the end product. Therefore, choosing an oil-free air compressor can directly improve the quality of compressed air and provide more reliable air protection for cleanness-sensitive application scenarios.
