Function:
Aerzener screw compressors are rotary piston machines whose rotors turn uniformly
against each other. Timing gear wheels guarantee contact-free running of the rotors. A
drive shaft including the gear ratio ensures that the rotors run at the required speed.
During operation, the material to be conveyed flows through the intake flange to the
housing and inlet for the rotors. The inlet is closed by means of the rotors rotating, and
the material to be conveyed is directed towards the discharge side. The volume within
the rotors is reduced and the pressure of the material to be conveyed increases.
The rotors and step-up gear feature roller bearings. The compressor and gearbox form
a single assembly unit with a shared forced feed oil lubrication circuit. The oil pump is
flange-mounted on the compressor. It sucks the lubricating oil out of the oil chamber
and pumps it to the relevant point of consumption via a cooler.
Compression heat arises during the compression process. Some of the heat is dissi-
pated into the ambient air via the outer surfaces of the compressor and conveying
pipes.
Outer surfaces and conveying pipes reach temperatures that can cause burns on ex-
posed skin.
