The cold snap is upon us and the water drips into ice. How to maintain a good compressed air system in the cold season, to avoid or reduce due to low temperature on the compressor and its system caused by the adverse effects?

First, the environment temperature control

Do a good job of air compressor station indoor cold measures to maintain the station temperature above freezing, the temperature of the equipment before the start of the best more than 2 ℃; outdoor installation of piping, valves, etc., should be well protected against freezing, the conditions of the key position should be equipped with heating equipment.

Tip: low-temperature environment, pay attention to the equipment around the condensate/cooling water leakage, to avoid icing caused by the operator to slip and fall.
