ATLAS COPCO 1625481151 ATLAS COPCO Air Compressor Oil Separation Filter 1. Core Function and Working Principle Oil-Gas Separation

During the operation of the air compressor, lubricating oil and compressed air mix to form an oil-gas mixture. The oil separation core uses multi-layer filtering materials (such as glass fibers, synthetic fibers, etc.) for interception, collision, and aggregation to separate the lubricating oil from the compressed air.

The clean air separated enters the post-treatment system or is directly supplied to the users;

The separated lubricating oil flows back to the compressor main unit through the return oil pipe and is recycled.

Ensuring System Efficiency

Efficient oil separation can reduce the loss of lubricating oil and avoid excessive oil content in the compressed air from polluting downstream equipment. 2. Key Performance Indicators

Separation Efficiency: The separation efficiency of high-quality oil separation cores can reach over 99.99%, ensuring that the oil content discharged is lower than 3ppm.

Pressure Difference: Under normal operation, the pressure difference is small. If the pressure difference is too large, it will increase energy consumption and require timely replacement.

Service Life: Affected by working conditions, air quality, and maintenance cycle, it is usually 4000 to 8000 hours.

3. Common Faults and Their Effects

Blockage or Damage to Filter Material: Blockage will lead to a decrease in oil-gas separation effect, excessive oil content in the exhaust oil, and a sharp increase in fuel consumption; at the same time, the pressure difference increases, and energy consumption rises.

Damage to Filter Material: The lubricating oil is discharged along with the compressed air, causing severe oil leakage and even damage to the compressor due to lack of oil.

Poor Sealing

Poor sealing between the oil separation core and the housing allows unfiltered oil-gas mixtures to be directly discharged, resulting in excessive oil content in the compressed air.

4. Replacement and Maintenance Tips

Regular Replacement

Replace according to the specified cycle in the equipment manual. Also, check if there are impurities or rust on the oil separation housing.

Model Matching

Different series of air compressors require corresponding oil separation model. When replacing, please provide the specific model of the air compressor to ensure compatibility in size and performance.

Installation Precautions

Clean the oil separation housing before installation to avoid contamination by impurities; ensure the sealing gasket is intact, and apply uniform force when tightening to prevent air leakage.

Daily Inspection

Regularly observe the pressure difference gauge of the oil separation device. If the pressure difference increases abnormally, check and replace it in advance; also, pay attention to the change in fuel consumption of the air compressor. If it suddenly increases, it may be a signal of a fault in the oil separation device.
