The oil-water separator is not a special equipment. It is mainly used to treat the two-pole separation of the condensate of the air compressor and the oily wastewater and sewage, and separate the oil and water. The air compressor is a kind of machine that works under pressure. It is accompanied by temperature rise and pressure during work. The safety of its operation must be put first. The special equipment is the gas storage tank and the complete air compressor.
How does the oil-water separator work?
In the pneumatic transmission system, the air source device is an accessory and other devices. The air compressor oil-water separator is just behind the cooler of the rear equipment. Only after the oil-water separator are equipment such as air storage tanks, filters and dryers, the temperature of the final discharged air can be as high as 140-170 degrees Celsius. Under high temperature changes, the water and oil impurities mixed in the air mainly exist in gaseous form. The temperature is lowered by the rear cooler, and the gaseous water and oil components are preliminarily isolated. However, a large amount of liquid water mist and oil still exist. Compressed air.
The function of the oil-water separator is to further separate the condensed water droplets with a larger diameter and the liquid oil mist with a higher concentration contained in the compressed air, so that the compressed air can be purified initially.
