In actual production work, if the lubricating oil coking will seriously affect the efficiency of the compressor, when found coking, should be dealt with promptly!

Slight coking

Phenomenon: high exhaust temperature, odor on the spot, increased current, compressor oil viscosity, acid value increases, a small amount of asphalt coking oil drum wall, the system has more oil sludge, oil filter frequently blocked, head rotor with varnish and so on.
