Whole Machine Description



The compressor adopts a V-type (angular type), open water-cooled, oil-free lubrication, reciprocating piston structure, with single-stage compression and two-cylinder configuration, and the entire unit is supplied in an integrated skid-mounted manner.


The compressor crankcase is made of HT250 gray cast iron, adopting a split structure of the machine body and the middle body. The lower part of the crankcase serves as an oil storage chamber for storing lubricating oil, and is equipped with a coarse oil filter component to initially filter the lubricating oil; The side cover plate of the crankcase is provided with an oil measuring rod for checking the oil level and an oil filling port for adding lubricating oil. In addition, the crankcase is also designed with functional interfaces such as an oil drain port, an oil temperature detection port, and a bearing lubrication oil passage interface. The oil drain port is equipped with a shut-off valve to facilitate regular discharge of waste oil and maintenance of the lubrication system.


The compressor middle body adopts a double-middle body structure, and the internal space of the middle body is designed to be greater than one stroke of the piston. This structure can effectively block the lubricating oil in the crankcase from flowing into the cylinder, thereby strictly preventing the lubricating oil from contaminating the natural gas medium and ensuring the purity of the compressed medium. The compressor cylinder is made of HT250 gray cast iron, adopting an oil-free lubrication design that eliminates the need for oil injection lubrication during operation, reducing maintenance workload and avoiding medium pollution caused by oil leakage. The cylinder head is also made of HT250 gray cast iron, and the air valves are arranged axially on the cylinder head. This layout optimizes the gas flow path inside the cylinder, reduces gas flow resistance, and improves the compression efficiency of the unit.
