TroubleshootingInstructions for finding the cause of air compressor errors - Part 2
Instructions for finding the cause of air compressor errors. Why does air compressor oil flow out from the upper air filter of the air compressor head?, what causes the air compressor to turn on and off between load and unload? What causes the air compressor motor to overload?
Maintenance GuideRepair screw air compressor
Air compressors are very important for production lines. Understanding the errors that arise when using the Air Compressor and knowing how to fix them will minimize the loss caused by Air Compressor problems. This article will help readers learn about the phenomenon, its causes, and how to fix and repair screw air compressors.
TroubleshootingHow to read bearing parameters
When we need to use bearings, we see the parameters recorded on the bearings. The bearing name parameters are a series of letters and numbers that indicate information about: bearing type, envelope size, size, accuracy, internal clearance and other related technical parameters... So, how to understand these parameters correctly? Please read the following article:
TroubleshootingInstall a refrigerant air dryer
Currently, in the air compressor lines using inverters in particular and systems using inverters in general, there are many different types of inverters from many brands, each company has many types depending on usage requirements from simple to complex, increasingly perfecting and improving. These inverters may differ in structure and component details, but the general principle is almost the same.

10 things to know when using bearings: When using bearings, users often encounter some problems such as: How to choose bearings?, How to choose appropriate grease for bearings?, Is it necessary to add grease to bearings with 2 caps?, How to install bearings correctly?, Average working life of bearings?, How to know when to use bearings? Is a bearing about to fail?, Is there any method to know the operating condition of a bearing when in use?, How to measure the wear of a bearing?, Why do bearings with tapered holes installed on sleeves fail quickly when replacing? Remedy?, What should be done when the inner or outer ring rotates on the shaft or bearing body? To answer some of these questions, please read the following article
Maintenance GuideCatalog of Fusheng air compressors
Portable air compressors are portable, suitable and widely used products in industries such as construction, mines, bridges and roads... Due to harsh working conditions in dusty environments, for the machine to work stably, regular and periodic maintenance is extremely important. Currently in Vietnam, the most popular portable air compressors are: Airman and Komatsu (Japan), Keaser (Germany), Sullair (USA), Bolaite (Atlas copco), Loyalair (Taiwan), Khaison (China), Elgi (India)…
TroubleshootingStructure and classification of bearings 'bearings' air compressor
Structure and classification of air compressor bearings: Bearings usually include an inner ring, outer ring, rolling components and cages that position the balls at fixed distances between the ball grooves. The standard material for production has a high carbon chromium content and a hardened steel cage. To choose bearings effectively, it is necessary to understand the design and characteristics of each different type of bearing to choose the appropriate bearing.
TroubleshootingMethod for adjusting the speed of asynchronous motor
How to adjust motor speed? How many methods are there to adjust motor speed? Up to now, people have researched many problems of adjusting the speed of asynchronous motors, but in general, the methods of adjusting the speed of asynchronous electric motors have their advantages and disadvantages and have not fully resolved issues such as adjustment range, energy consumption, flatness when adjusting and equipment used.
TroubleshootingSpecial conditions of 3-phase asynchronous motors
The condition of the engine working with load is the normal condition of the engine. Below we consider special cases. The condition of the engine working without load. The motor works without load (rotates but does not pull the load) or under load, the current in the motor winding is small, does not cause any harm to the motor, but is a waste of investment capital, and at the same time the power factor and output efficiency are low, causing waste of electricity. Therefore, the engine should not be operated under load or no load.
TroubleshootingHow to troubleshoot Sullair TS-32 air compressor
Currently, most air compressors use 3-phase asynchronous electric motors (large capacity air compressors) and Air compressors use 1-phase electric motors (small capacity air compressors). During the use and operation of the air compressor, there have been many incidents caused by electric motor errors such as: short circuit, electric motor fire, electric motor jam, the load current is not too high, The machine does not run at enough speed, the motor vibrates strongly and heats up quickly, Switching on the motor, the protective devices act immediately (fuse is broken, CB is activated...), The machine runs at full speed but the 3-phase current is unbalanced.... To help customers detect the phenomena early Errors, causes and remedies for motor errors in air compressors (steam machines) and 3-phase asynchronous motors as soon as possible, so that timely measures can be taken to reduce losses caused by motor errors. We would like to offer some common engine errors as follows:
TroubleshootingHow to properly move and install Compkorea air compressor
KyungWon air compressor is one of the important equipment in industries, helping to provide stable compressed air for many applications. However, during use, technical problems cannot be avoided, and one of the common problems is that the air compressor does not produce air. So what is the cause and how to fix it? Join Minh Phu to find out details in the article below.
TroubleshootingMicos 110 air compressor
Periodically checking the technical specifications for AC motors of Air Compressors (in particular) and AC Electric Motors (in general) is extremely important and necessary. It helps users minimize risks such as: short circuit, motor fire... From those checked technical parameters, users can early detect potential risks and have appropriate maintenance plans, increasing the life of the Motor and safety for the operator. In addition, after the assembly of the low-voltage 3-phase AC motor, when testing, it is also necessary to check technical parameters such as: insulation resistance, no-load and load current, working speed, etc.
