Evolution of Screw Compressor Installation

Dimensioning Air compressors Installing an Air Compressor Compressed Air Wiki How To

Screw compressor installation has evolved from complex to streamlined, with integrated packages and optimized techniques. Key aspects include proper placement, seamless distribution, and safe electrical setup. Among compressor types, screw compressors are efficient and reliable, benefiting from installation techniques like elevated flooring.

Determining if a compressor room is essential

Not so long ago, when a customer installed a compressor, they also needed to purchase the electric motor, starter equipment, after-cooler, intake filters, etc. As you can imagine, this required a lot of space, and usually, a separate compressor room.

The customer also had to thoroughly examine capacity and quality demands with various component suppliers. This is to ensure all equipment is compatible with the compressor.

However, technological advances and industry shifts have reshaped compressor installation. Today, the process is streamlined. Manufacturers present compressors in comprehensive packages, eliminating compatibility guesswork. These packages feature a sturdy frame housing the compressor and accessories, with pre-made internal connections ensuring reliability. Encased in noise-reducing housing, the assembly aids in creating a safe work environment.

What is included in an air compressor package?

An air compressor package consists of the compressor and accessories mounted in a box frame. All internal connections between the different parts are factory-made. The complete compressor package comes in a sound-reducing enclosure to minimize noise.

Due to this, air compressor installations are relatively simple. One example is the so-called "worksite compressor," which incorporates fully integrated compressed air conditioning systems. This includes dryers, filters, condensate removers, and other treatment components to remove contaminants. Additionally, highly effective noise and vibration reduction measures are implemented. 

Components of Modern Screw Compressor Systems

  1. Compressed Air Distribution: The distribution system is crucial, ensuring a consistent flow to all points of use. Material selection, layout design, and vigilant leak checks optimize this system.
  2. Electrical Installation: Proper electrical setup is vital for performance and safety, ensuring the correct voltage, grounding, and adherence to codes.
  3. Compressor Placement and Optimal Conditions: Efficient compressor performance depends on strategic placement. Ideal conditions must be created to increase longevity and efficiency.

Consider factors like

  • ventilation,
  • temperature control,
  • and accessibility for maintenance.

Optimizing Efficiency through Installation Techniques

It is important to remember that the installation method may still significantly influence compressor system performance and reliability. These screw compressor installation techniques can guide you:

  1. Basic Installation: A proper setup is vital for performance. The installation site must be contaminant-free, level, and stable, with proper anchoring and alignment to prevent wear.
  2. Elevated Flooring: Placing the compressor on a raised floor reduces vibrations, enhancing operation and extending machine life. 
  3. Platform Installation: Installing the compressor on an elevated platform improves ventilation, cooling the machine during operation. This elevation also safeguards against flooding.
  4. Visual Guides: Manufacturers can also provide installation photos with step-by-step guidance for flawless installation.

Note that when modern compressor packages are installed, the existing compressed air distribution system or future expansions should be taken into consideration. 

Which location is best for compressor installation?

Elevated flooring or platforms can reduce vibrations and enhance cooling, while creating a dedicated compressor room can further regulate environmental factors for ideal operation and worker comfort.

Benefits of an air compressor room

Designed to fit within most industrial facilities, air compressors have come a long way. With that in mind, it still might be useful to create a compressor room for maximum operating conditions. This will allow you to control environmental factors and regulate operating costs.

Since these machines generate a lot of heat, implementing proper ventilation is important for ideal performance. Additionally, they can be loud, impacting worker conditions.
