What is a screw air compressor?
Jul 24 , 2024

A screw air compressor is a positive displacement compressor that compresses air using the screw principle. It uses a pair of intermeshing spiral rotors (usually called male rotor and female rotor) to achieve the air intake, compression and discharge process. The following are some key features of screw air compressors:

1.working principle:

The male and female rotors of the screw air compressor mesh and rotate with each other inside the machine body. Air is sucked in and compressed in the gradually shrinking space between the rotor and the casing, and finally discharged through the exhaust port.

2.Compression method:

It is usually divided into single-stage compression and two-stage compression. Single-stage compression means that the air reaches the required pressure in one compression process; two-stage compression means that the air is compressed twice to reach a higher pressure.

3.Structural features:

The screw air compressor has a compact structure, small size, light weight and is easy to install and maintain.

4.Operation stability:

Since there is no direct contact between the rotors, the operation is smooth, with little vibration and low noise.

5.high efficiency:

Screw air compressors generally have higher compression efficiency, especially in industrial applications that operate continuously.

6.Easy maintenance:

Due to reasonable design, long maintenance cycle and relatively low maintenance cost.

7.Scope of application:

Screw air compressors are widely used in industrial production, construction, mining, petrochemical, transportation and other fields to provide power sources or for inflation, pneumatic control, etc.

8.Various types:

According to the lubrication method, it can be divided into oil-free and oil-injected (with oil) screw compressors; according to the cooling method, it can be divided into water-cooled and air-cooled screw compressors; according to the frequency of use, it can be divided into fixed frequency and variable frequency screw compressors.

9.Energy saving:

In particular, variable frequency screw air compressors can adjust their operating speed according to actual gas demand, thereby achieving energy saving.

Screw air compressors have been widely used in modern industry due to their advantages such as high efficiency, stability, low noise and easy maintenance.
