How to view the size specifications of the air compressor? If you want to check the parameters of the air compressor, you can first refer to the instructions for using the air compressor, which usually have detailed parameters in the manual. In addition to reading the operation manual, you can also look at the back of the air compressor.

There will be a nameplate on the back of the air compressor, which will provide detailed parameters. Usually, we need to look at the parameters of the air compressor, mainly the displacement, exhaust pressure, and power, which should be relatively important. If you want to know the specific model of the air compressor, we can conduct a specific analysis based on their parameters. The parameters of the air compressor mainly include the following aspects, namely the displacement of the air compressor, the power of the air compressor, and the pressure of the air compressor.
The parameters of air compressors are different, which means that their models are different. We all know that the unit of measurement for power is a unit or kilowatt, 1KW ≈ 1.333HP. Generally, the power of an air compressor is mostly 110 kilowatts. In fact, when we look at the parameters of an air compressor, it is very simple because the parameters are replaced by specific words. We have compiled some commonly used parameters of air compressors for reference in addressing such issues.
screw compressor1. Exhaust volume, also known as volumetric capacity, refers to the volume of gas discharged per unit time. The volumetric flow rate is measured in m3/min (cubic meter/minute) or L/min (liter/minute), with 1m3 (cubic meter)=1000L (liter). In screw air compressors, many parameters of exhaust volume are more important.
2. Pressure, usually the discharge pressure given on the compressor nameplate is gauge pressure, not absolute pressure.
3. Common pressure units: bar, MPa. In the air compressor industry, “kilogram” refers to “bar”, which means 1 kilogram refers to 1 bar, 1 MPa (mpa)=1000 kPa (kpa), 1 bar (bar)=0.1 MPa.
Specific power, unit: KW/m, refers to the power consumed by the compressor per unit volume flow rate. It is an important indicator for evaluating the energy efficiency of compressors.
4. Noise refers to the sound generated during the operation of a screw air compressor, generally measured in dB (A).
5. The outlet pipe diameter refers to the size of the outlet pipe of a screw air compressor. Machines of different sizes will be matched with different sizes of outlet pipe diameters. Do you know how to evaluate the size specifications of air compressors? In future work, you can directly find this report online for sales personnel, which can greatly improve efficiency. In addition, the importance of the air compressor nameplate is self-evident.
Whether it is minor maintenance or air compressor overhaul, after-sales service personnel should check this parameter before proceeding to the next step of work. The first is to check the use of compressed air and the minimum operating pressure; The second is operational efficiency, blade tip, and off peak demand air volume. The cooling method of the air compressor is air cooling or water cooling; It is necessary to consider the installation conditions of the air compressor, whether it is ventilated, insulated, and other issues. In addition, the later maintenance of the air compressor should also be included in the selection method.
