What are the reasons for the malfunction of Zhigao screw air compressor?
According to feedback from major customers, it can be known that the causes of air compressor failures are multifaceted, and the methods of troubleshooting vary depending on the machine structure and the user and maintainer. The engineers of Zhigao Screw Air Compressor, a good screw air compressor brand, will provide a detailed analysis of the causes of the faults for everyone.
Based on the feedback from various customers, it can be seen that the causes of air compressor failures are diverse. The methods for troubleshooting vary depending on the machine structure and the maintenance personnel. Below, the engineers of the excellent screw air compressor brand - Zhigao Screw Air Compressor, will provide a detailed analysis of the causes of the failures.
Natural damage
The friction surfaces of the moving parts will undergo natural wear during operation, causing changes in the size, shape and quality of the surfaces, which will disrupt the original normal clearance and thus deteriorate the technical performance of the Zhigao screw air compressor and lead to malfunctions.
(2) The various components of Zhigao screw air compressors are mainly connected by bolts and screws. During operation, they may naturally loosen due to vibration, or even completely detach. After long-term use, the free height of the springs will decrease and their elasticity will weaken. Components may undergo annealing due to overheating or become brittle due to overcooling. Various sealing devices may fail due to long-term use. All these factors can cause faults in Zhigao screw air compressors.

Improper use and maintenance
During use, the operation was not carried out strictly in accordance with the operating procedures, and even violations occurred; maintenance was improper or insufficient; the parts were not properly stored, resulting in damage to the components and causing faults in Zhigao screw air compressors. Common examples include:
(1) Before using Zhigao screw air compressors in winter, they were started without preheating; after starting, the load was increased without self-heating; for the water-cooled Zhigao screw air compressors, no cooling water was added before starting, and after running, when the temperature was found to be too high, cooling water was suddenly added, causing the Zhigao screw air compressor to cool down sharply, resulting in severe wear, deformation, and even rupture of the components; after use, the cooling water was not drained in time, causing the machine parts to freeze and crack and be damaged.
(2) Failure to timely inspect, add or replace the engine oil, resulting in the oil quantity not meeting the standard and the oil deteriorating; failure to clean the oil filter on time, causing an increase in oil flow resistance and even blockage of the oil passage, thereby deteriorating the lubrication conditions and causing component wear.
(3) Failure to clean the air filter in a timely manner led to a decrease in filtration efficiency, an increase in air flow resistance, a reduction in intake volume, resulting in severe wear of parts such as the intake valve and the main unit, as well as a decrease in compression efficiency, an increase in power consumption, a deterioration in the quality of compressed gas, and even complete inoperability.

(4) Failure to timely inspect and maintain each valve component led to a deterioration in their performance, preventing them from operating normally. This resulted in a decline in the reliability and economy of Zhigao screw air compressors, and an increase in the failure rate.
(5) Failure to conduct timely inspection and maintenance of each safety valve led to excessive or insufficient pressure regulation, resulting in significant safety hazards. Only by comprehensively understanding the usage requirements of Zhigao screw air compressors and the changing patterns of various components' technical conditions, and by correctly using, promptly maintaining, and properly storing them, can faults caused by this be effectively prevented.
