As the unique advantages of screw air compressors continue to be known, this equipment has been successively used in high-end fields such as medicine, food, construction, electronics, and chemicals. However, at present, because some users do not have a correct cleaning method when cleaning the screw air compressor, it reduces its use efficiency and shortens its service life. Therefore, in order to avoid this situation, here is a brief introduction to some knowledge points for cleaning such equipment:
How to clean a screw compressor effectively?

How to clean a screw compressor effectively?

First, the cleaning of grease

　　Screw air compressor after a period of time often will gather a large amount of oil scale dirt, for these dirt, commonly used cleaning methods are two, one is to use kerosene for cleaning, this cleaning method needs to mainly use kerosene to brush its parts should have a sequence, first should clean the main and cleaner parts of Shanghai screw air compressor, and then clean the secondary, dirtier parts, which can save cleaning costs; The other is to use alkaline washing, in which parts containing oil scale are put into a sodium hydroxide solution with a concentration of ten percent and a temperature of 70-90 degrees Celsius for cleaning, and then rinsed with cold water. In addition, users should pay attention to the use of these cleaning methods must be sure to dry the parts with a compressed air machine or wipe dry with a cotton cloth.

　 Second, the cleaning of carbon deposits

　　For screw air compressor another important cleaning of the dirt is carbon deposits, the commonly used way to remove is to cooperate with the mechanical method and the chemical method, first the accumulation of carbon deposits on the equipment thicker and more concentrated parts, with a soft scraper to scrape, and then put the parts into a solution similar to caustic soda, wait until the carbon deposits on the parts are emulsified and softened and then scraped with a soft scraper, the same as oil scale cleaning, after cleaning to dry with a cotton cloth or compressed air machine to dry.
