1. What is an air compressor bursting disc?
An air compressor bursting disc refers to a device that, during the use of an air compressor, transmits the pressure of the hydraulic system to the exhaust valve of the air compressor through the lifting and pushing of the cylinder and quickly releases it, so as to achieve the purpose of rapid shutdown and no compression overload.
2. What are the functions of air compressor bursting discs?
(1) Rapid shutdown: When the air compressor is in use, when the equipment is abnormal or needs to be shut down immediately, the air compressor bursting disc can quickly release the gas pressure and cut off the gas source, thereby quickly shutting down and avoiding equipment damage.
(2) Preventing compressor overload: When the air compressor is running, since the compressor exhaust volume remains unchanged, when the air valve is opened, the gas in the cylinder will suddenly relax, so a component is needed to protect the exhaust valve. When a certain pressure is reached, the gas is quickly deflated to avoid compressor overload.
3. How to use the air compressor bursting disc:
(1) Correct installation: When installing the air compressor bursting disc, it is necessary to ensure that the installation position of the parts is correct and the tightening bolts are correct to avoid loosening during use.
(2) Correct use: When using the air compressor bursting disc, the pressure needs to be moderate and cannot exceed the bearing range of the bursting disc, otherwise it will cause premature damage to the bursting disc and cause unnecessary losses.
4. Maintenance method of air compressor bursting disc:
(1) Regular inspection: When using the air compressor for a long time, regular inspection and maintenance are required to check the use of the air compressor bursting disc. If obvious wear is found, it should be replaced in time.
(2) Pay attention to maintenance: When using the air compressor bursting disc, it is necessary to pay attention to the maintenance of the equipment, clean the valve body and the inside of the pipeline in time, and avoid dust and debris accumulation at the valve port, which will affect the normal operation of the air compressor.
Through the introduction of this article, I believe that everyone has a clearer understanding of the definition, function, use, maintenance methods and other key issues of air compressor bursting discs. During use, be sure to maintain correct usage and maintenance methods to avoid affecting the life of the machine due to untimely maintenance.
