Screw compressors
Advantages and main characteristics of screw compressors
Screw compressors are functional and reliable equipment. Their direct purpose is the production of compressed air. Repairs are rarely needed, maintenance does not require a lot of effort.
Screw compressors have an increased working life due to the use of the latest technologies in their design. They rarely require replacement of consumables, and therefore they are economical to maintain.
Modern screw compressors have the following range of important advantages.
- Low noise and vibration levels.
- Minimum oil consumption.
- Easy operation.
Screw compressors consume from 2 to 3 mg of oil per 1 cubic meter of air output. This indicator is several times lower than that of reciprocating devices and provides a high level of purity of air masses. The installation of the compressor does not require strengthening the foundation, use is possible even when organizing mobile complexes.
Types of compressors
The equipment differs into separate types according to the type of drive and the principle of loading the camera. Screw compressors can be oil-filled and oil-free. The latter are suitable for use in the medical, chemical and food industries, and have high requirements for the purity of the supplied air. Oil screw compressors have a wider scope of application and are somewhat cheaper.
The drive in this equipment can be:
- direct;
- belt;
- gear-driven.
The latter type is characterized by a high level of performance and minimal vibration during operation. Such screw compressors are used in complex industries. Direct-drive equipment is not afraid of dust particles getting inside, which cannot be said about belt devices. However, this type of screw compressors does not allow you to adjust the operating pressure. Belt-driven equipment, on the contrary, has a wide range of functionality.
Applications of screw compressors
Screw compressors are used in various industries, as well as in construction and, if necessary, repair or painting of cars. Aggregates of this type can be found at flour mills and cement plants, at enterprises of the chemical and pharmaceutical industries. The equipment has also found wide application in solving household tasks.
