Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of oil-injected screw air compressor technology, and in particular to a core structure of a four-stage filter composite oil-gas separator for oil-injected screw compressors. Background Technology
[0002] The oil-gas separator cores commonly used in oil-injected screw air compressors on the market are usually single-core structures, consisting of a medium-precision filter layer, a condensation separation layer, and related components. They are mostly used in oil-injected screw air compressors with a volumetric flow rate of 80 cubic meters per minute and an exhaust pressure of 0.7–1.25 MPa or lower.
[0003] When an oil-injected screw air compressor is operating, the oil-air mixture discharged from the screw compressor undergoes cyclone, collision, and sedimentation separation in the oil-air separator. Large lubricating oil particles in the mixture are separated from the compressed air through these steps, with approximately 95% of the lubricating oil being separated. The remaining approximately 5% of the lubricating oil is filtered by the filter layer of a single oil-air separator core and then condensed by the condensation separation layer, completing the separation of lubricating oil from the compressed air. The condensed lubricating oil accumulates in the bottom oil reservoir due to gravity. This lubricating oil is then guided back to the screw compressor's air inlet via the oil return pipe under the pressure difference across the compressor system. The final compressed air supplied to the customer has an oil content of approximately 3 ppm. This design uses a medium-precision filter paper, has a large and rapidly rising pressure differential in the separator core, and typically has a service life of 4000 hours.
[0004] The lubricating oil collected in the bottom oil reservoir is dynamically returned through the oil separator return pipe under the action of the pressure difference before and after the compressor system. In order to ensure that the lubricating oil is quickly and cleanly discharged, there will be a state of mixed transportation of lubricating oil and compressed air, which seriously wastes compressed air. In addition, this oil-gas separator core has the following problems: the rated processing volume flow rate is too small, the oil-gas separator core filtration pressure difference is large and rises relatively quickly, and the oil content in the compressed air supplied to customers is too high. Currently, it is a single-stage filter, with low filtration efficiency and short service life. Utility Model Content
