Factors to consider when buying an air compressor

Some factors to consider when buying an air compressor:

1. Pressure factors: 1. The higher the pressure, the greater the power consumption. The pressure drop caused by the pipe diameter and length must be considered, and the operating pressure is the lower limit pressure.

2. List the operating pressures of various models. If the operating pressures differ too much, you must purchase air compressors with different pressures or use a booster. Do not reduce the pressure to increase electricity costs.

2. Purchase model selection:

1. Calculate the total actual air volume and add the margin.

2. The actual exhaust volume listed in our catalog is tested and verified by the American ASME air volume measuring equipment.

3. Pay attention to the energy consumption ratio to save electricity.

3.Use environment:

1. It must be located in a spacious and well-lit place to facilitate operation and maintenance.

2. Low temperature, less dust, clean air and good ventilation. The room temperature should be below 40 degrees Celsius.

4. Cooling water and water quality

1. The cold water temperature should be low, and cooling tower should be used for cooling.

2. Pay attention to the pH value of cooling, which should be maintained at around 7 to prevent scaling and increase cleaning costs.

3. Pay attention to the cooling effect of the cooler. Generally speaking, the outlet temperature of compressed air should be around 40 degrees Celsius.

5. Compressed air quality and requirements:

Compressed air contains a large amount of water with a relative humidity of 100%, which can cause great damage to precision instruments, pneumatic tools, pneumatic equipment, valves, instruments, pipelines, etc., because water can cause rust, block instruments, reduce the quality of finished products, damage equipment, and lose a lot of money in repair and maintenance work. Therefore, it is necessary to install a compressed air purification system.
