Installation method of lubricating oil filter for air compressor
The installation method of lubricating oil filter for air compressor usually involves a series of steps, and the following are specific operation guidelines:
1、 Preparation work
Shutdown and release pressure: Before replacing or installing the lubricating oil filter of the air compressor, it is necessary to ensure that the air compressor has stopped running and the pressure in the system has been completely released. This is to prevent accidents such as oil spray during installation.
Prepare tools: Prepare the necessary tools such as wrenches, screwdrivers, cleaning cloths, etc.
2、 Dismantle the old filter
Positioning filter: First, locate the lubricating oil filter on the air compressor.

3、 Clean the filter housing
Cleaning the housing: Carefully clean the filter housing to ensure that there are no residual oil stains or impurities.
Clearing the through holes: Clearing the pressure differential through holes before and after the filter to ensure smooth flow of oil.
4、 Install a new filter
Prepare a new filter element: Remove the new lubricating oil filter element and check if it is intact and undamaged.
Apply lubricating oil: Apply a layer of lubricating oil on the sealing ring of the filter element to ensure sealing performance.
Install filter element: Screw the new filter element into the filter housing until it contacts the sealing gasket, and then manually tighten it by 1/3 turn. Be careful not to overtighten to avoid damaging the filter element or sealing gasket.
5、 Check and power on
Check installation condition: Check if the filter element is installed properly to ensure there is no looseness or leakage.
Start up and run: Start the air compressor, observe its operation, and check if there is any leakage in the lubricating oil filter. If there is a leak, the machine should be stopped immediately and the installation should be rechecked.
6、 Precautions
Safety first: During the entire installation process, it is essential to ensure personal safety and avoid accidents such as burns and scratches.
Cleanliness: Maintain the cleanliness of the filter housing and filter element to prevent impurities from entering the system and affecting the normal operation of the air compressor.
