Learn how oil systems enable lubrication, cooling, sealing, and control in screw compressors.
Focuses on oil systems used with industrial screw compressors in ammonia refrigeration systems.
Overview
Oil systems play a critical role in screw compressor operation, performing far more functions
than simple lubrication. Improper oil system performance is a common source of compressor issues.
This course explains how oil systems circulate, cool, filter, and control oil within screw
compressors, with emphasis on hydraulics and bearings.
