Screw Compressor

Screw Compressor is a type of rotary compressor that uses two intermeshing helical rotors to compress gas or air. As the rotors rotate, they trap and compress the gas between the rotors and the compressor housing. This compression process increases the pressure of the gas, making it suitable for various applications, including industrial refrigeration, air conditioning systems, and pneumatic tools. Screw compressors are known for their high efficiency, reliability, and ability to handle large volumes of gas or air continuously.

Screw Compressor

Primary Function of

  • Intake: The compressor draws in gas or air through the intake port.
  • Compression: Inside the compressor, two helical screws or rotors rotate in opposite directions. As they rotate, they trap and compress the gas or air between the rotors and the compressor housing.
  • Pressure Increase: The compression action significantly increases the pressure of the gas or air. This makes the gas or air suitable for various applications, such as powering pneumatic tools or supplying compressed air in industrial processes.
  • Discharge: The compressed gas or air is then discharged from the compressor at a higher pressure through the outlet port.
  • Cooling: During operation, screw compressors may include mechanisms for cooling the compressed gas or lubricating the rotors to maintain efficient operation and prevent overheating.

Screw Compressor

Essential Characteristics and Importance of

  • Rotary Design: They operate using two intermeshing helical rotors that compress gas or air.
  • Continuous Operation: Screw compressors are designed for continuous operation, making them suitable for industrial applications requiring constant compressed air supply.
  • High Efficiency: They offer high efficiency compared to other types of compressors, especially at higher capacities.
  • Low Vibration and Noise: Due to their balanced design and fewer moving parts, screw compressors operate with lower vibration and noise levels.
  • Compact Size: They are relatively compact for the amount of compressed air they can produce, making them suitable for installations where space is limited.
