Add what oil suitable for Roots fan, Roots fan lubricant use guide

Roots fan is a widely used air compression equipment with stable operation, low noise and high efficiency, which is widely used in the fields of sewage treatment, pharmacy, chemical industry and so on. In the normal operation of Roots fan, the selection and use of lubricating oil is very important and can affect the performance and life of the equipment. Therefore, it is vital to understand the guidelines for the use of lubricating oil in Roots fans for the maintenance and repair of equipment.

First, understand the working principle and characteristics of Roots fan

Roots fan is a kind of equipment with screw blades meshing with each other to realize suction and compression through synchronous operation. It is characterized by a simple structure, no lubricating oil chamber, and works without direct contact between metal and metal, while it has higher requirements for lubricating oil due to its high-speed operation. Therefore, for the characteristics of the Roots fan, the choice of suitable lubricant becomes more important.

Second, the selection of suitable lubricating oil

Roots fan lubricating oil should have the following characteristics: first of all, the lubricant should have good oxidation resistance and corrosion resistance, can effectively extend the service life of the equipment. Secondly, the lubricant should have good high temperature anti-wear properties, can effectively reduce the wear and tear of metal parts in high-speed operation. Again, the lubricant should have good sealing performance, to prevent gas leakage. Finally, the lubricant should have a good clean dispersion performance, can effectively remove the dirt and impurities within the equipment.

Third, the common types of lubricants

Common types of Roots fan lubricants include synthetic gear oils, synthetic greases and synthetic lubricants. Among them, synthetic gear oils are commonly used in high-speed and medium-pressure Roots fans, which can provide better high-temperature anti-wear performance. Synthetic greases are often used in the gearboxes of Roots fans to reduce wear and tear. Synthetic lubricants are often used in low-temperature, high-pressure Roots fan, can provide better anti-oxidation performance.

Lubricant replacement interval

Lubricant replacement cycle is one of the important factors affecting the performance and life of the equipment. Normally, the lubricant replacement cycle of Roots fan is 2000-4000 hours once. Of course, in actual use, the lubricant replacement cycle should also be based on the working nature of the equipment, environmental conditions and the performance of the lubricant to determine. In general, the lubricant replacement cycle can be properly adjusted according to the operation of the equipment to ensure the normal operation of the equipment and the effective use of lubricants.

Fifth, Roots fan lubricant filling and control

When adding lubricating oil, attention should be paid to maintaining cleanliness and avoiding the mixing of foreign objects. Usually, in the Roots fan operation process, you can add lubricant through the lubricant filling hole to the equipment to add lubricant, the specific amount and frequency of filling should be based on the use of equipment and lubricant performance to determine. In addition, during the operation of the equipment, the lubricant should also be regularly monitored and replaced to ensure the normal operation of the equipment and the effective use of lubricants.

Sixth, regular maintenance and inspection

The lubricating oil of the Roots fan needs to be cleaned and inspected on a regular basis, in addition to being replaced regularly. Attention should be paid to the increase in the number of times with the use of timely replacement of lubricants and keep clean. When checking, attention should be paid to observe the color and turbidity of the lubricant, and timely removal of dirt and impurities inside the equipment. Regular maintenance and inspection can effectively extend the service life of the equipment, reduce equipment maintenance costs.

Seven, conclusion

In the selection and use of Roots fan lubricant, should be based on the working nature of the equipment, environmental conditions and the performance of the lubricant to determine the appropriate type of lubricant and replacement cycle, and pay attention to filling and control. At the same time, regular maintenance and inspection is also an important measure to ensure the normal operation of the equipment and extend the service life. Only by doing these tasks can we give full play to the performance of the Roots fan and improve the efficiency of the equipment. Through the understanding and implementation of the guidelines for the use of lubricants in Roots fans, you can ensure the normal operation of the equipment, improve the service life of the equipment, reduce the maintenance cost of the equipment, and provide better protection for production operations.
