Cylinder lubrication of AIR COMPRESSORS

Cylinder lubrication of AIR COMPRESSORS There are two principal reasons why it is disadvantageous, and frequently dangerous, to overlubricate the cylinders of air compressors, firstly fire risk and secondly contamination of air with oil vapour. Control of oil feed will prevent any likelihood of explosive fires but it may be necessary to incorporate special oil vapour filters to prevent contamination of materials and products coming into contact with the compressed air. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Industrial Lubrication and Tribology Emerald Publishing

Abstract

There are two principal reasons why it is disadvantageous, and frequently dangerous, to overlubricate the cylinders of air compressors, firstly fire risk and secondly contamination of air with oil vapour. Control of oil feed will prevent any likelihood of explosive fires but it may be necessary to incorporate special oil vapour filters to prevent contamination of materials and products coming into contact with the compressed air.
