    Air Screw
In summary, the conversation discusses the use of an air compressor driven by a DC series motor and the issues that arise when the air decreases in the main reservoir. It is suggested that a soft starter be added to protect the motor, but there are concerns about the effect on the lubrication of the male and female screws. The conversation ends with a request for questions and a lack of response or solution to the issue.

we have an air comporessor driven by dc series motor direct start the the system work and stop many times as the air decrease in the main resirvoir , thus the motor temperature get more hot
as an electirical engineer i want to protect the motor starting by add soft starter to it
But the male and female screw lubricating oil depend up on the delivered compressed air which splashing the oil over there
And when i add the starter the speed at starting period is less than 1500rpm and the air decrease the starting period may be afew second
Is this affec on the lubricating of male and female of the comporessor?

1. What is an L2.4/10 air screw compressor?

The L2.4/10 air screw compressor is a type of air compressor that uses two helical screws to compress air and deliver it at high pressure. It is commonly used in industrial settings for powering pneumatic tools and equipment.

2. How does an L2.4/10 air screw compressor work?

An L2.4/10 air screw compressor works by using two interlocking helical screws, known as rotors, which rotate in opposite directions. As the rotors turn, air is drawn in through the intake valve and trapped between the rotors. The rotors compress the air, and it is then discharged through the outlet valve at high pressure.

3. What are the advantages of using an L2.4/10 air screw compressor?

There are several advantages to using an L2.4/10 air screw compressor, including high efficiency, low maintenance, and continuous operation. They also provide a constant flow of compressed air, making them ideal for applications that require a steady supply of compressed air.

4. What are the common uses for an L2.4/10 air screw compressor?

An L2.4/10 air screw compressor is commonly used in industrial settings for powering pneumatic tools and equipment, such as drills, grinders, and impact wrenches. They are also used in manufacturing processes, such as packaging, painting, and welding.

5. How do I maintain an L2.4/10 air screw compressor?

To maintain an L2.4/10 air screw compressor, it is important to regularly check and replace the air filter and oil, as well as inspect the belts and hoses for wear and tear. It is also recommended to have a professional perform routine maintenance and repairs to ensure optimal performance and longevity of the compressor.
