What are the causes of air compressor overheating failures?

What causes overheating in air compressors? Let Granklin Air Compressor specialists explain in detail!

Overheating Analysis:
Air compressors may overheat during prolonged overload operation in daily use.

Symptoms of Overheating:
1. Excessively high exhaust temperature
2. Abnormal heat in operating components

Main Causes:
1. Malfunction of vent valves or unloading valves
2. Severe air brake system leaks
3. Insufficient oil supply to moving parts or cylinder scoring

Troubleshooting Methods:
1. After depressurizing the intake, inspect the pressure relief valve assembly. Clean or replace seized components. Address clogged/unresponsive unloading valves through cleaning, repair, or replacement.

2. Examine all brake system components and pipelines for integrity.

3. Resolve overheating caused by poor piston-cylinder lubrication, insufficient clearance, or scoring by inspecting, repairing, or replacing faulty parts.

Why do air compressors require regular maintenance?

1. Reduces and Avoids Unplanned Downtime.Most modern enterprises operate based on customer orders, with strict requirements for delivery timelines. In lean production systems, just-in-time and zero inventory are typical features. As a critical power source, air compressor downtime can disrupt production processes, delay orders, and harm both profitability and reputation. Preventive maintenance minimizes unplanned downtime, ensuring timely delivery and operational reliability.

Why do air compressors need graded compression?

When the working pressure of the gas is required to be high, single-stage compression is not only uneconomical and sometimes impossible, but multi-stage compression must be used. Multi-stage compression starts with the inhalation of gas and increases the pressure several times to achieve the required working pressure. We will explain in detail why air compressors require hierarchical compression.
