What are the reasons for the high fuel consumption of screw air compressors

Reasons for the high fuel consumption of screw air compressors:

1. The temperature of the engine oil is too high. The air compressor engineer should check the working condition of the oil cooler after stopping for a period of time. If necessary, replace with new parts and clean the core of the oil cooler.

2. There is too much oil in the valve chamber, which may be caused by the wear of the valve guide, the wear of the piston ring and the cylinder liner, and the damage of the seal ring of the turbocharger will also cause excessive oil consumption of the air compressor.

3. The oil leakage of the screw air compressor is generally the main reason for the excessive oil consumption of the air compressor. The air compressor maintenance personnel need to find out the place of the oil leakage as soon as possible and repair it according to the demand. What needs to be emphasized is that the oil leakage of the air compressor will cause oil in the machine and other places. In order to reduce pollution, try to clean it with a special cleaning agent when repairing and maintaining the air compressor.

4. There is too much oil in the engine. When this happens, the maintenance personnel of the screw air compressor should remove the excess oil, find out the source of the oil, and use the appropriate oil in the engine. Do not add too much oil to leak.
