The Centrifugal Oil Separator manufacturers said that the function of the oil separator is to separate the lubricating oil in the high-pressure steam discharged from the refrigeration compressor to ensure the safe and efficient operation of the device. According to the principle of oil separation by reducing the airflow speed and changing the airflow direction, the oil particles in the high-pressure steam are separated under the action of gravity. Generally, when the airflow velocity is below 1m/s, the oil particles with a diameter of more than 0.2mm contained in the steam can be separated. There are four types of oil separators usually produced by centrifugal oil separator manufacturers: washing type, centrifugal type, packing type and filter type.

Centrifugal Oil Separator manufacturers share the working principle of oil separators:
The centrifugal oil separator manufacturers explained that the high-pressure gas (gaseous working medium and lubricating oil) from the compressor enters the oil separator and enters the guide vane of the oil separator, and flows spirally along the guide vane, relying on centrifugal force and gravity, The lubricating oil is separated from the working gas and flows down along the inner wall of the cylinder. The working gas is led out of the oil separator from the central pipe through the porous baffle. The separated lubricating oil is concentrated in the lower part of the oil separator and can be discharged regularly, or the lubricating oil can be automatically returned to the crankcase of the compressor by using a floating ball valve.
The above is the content introduced by the centrifugal oil separator manufacturers.
