Is maintenance of air compressor motors necessary?

While the three phase asynchronous motor provides us with electrical energy, the motor itself is also losing energy. For example, the wear of parts, unfavorable working environment, etc. will cause disadvantages to the motor. In some cases, it may even cause unnecessary damage to the electric motor, causing you economic losses directly or indirectly.

Maintenance of air compressor motors needs to be in place. The reasons for damage to Air Compressor Motors are multifaceted and comprehensive. We went deep into the work and production sites of air compressors to conduct on-site investigations. In addition to the common conventional fault factors with other motor power equipment, the causes of damage to air compressor motors are also related to the fault factors caused by the specific operation of the air compressor itself. The analysis and summary are mainly as follows:

1. Working conditions requirements of air compressors. The mechanical operation and electrical control of air compressors are relatively simple. Generally, single units work independently. In the absence of professional operation, the occurrence of faults is not handled in time.
2. Reliability and sensitivity of air pressure automatic switches. The start and stop of air compressors usually have air pressure automatic switches that directly drive AC contacts to realize automatic control of the motor, while most air pressure automatic switches adopt mechanical structures, using spring compression and release energy to operate contacts.
