The Danger of Moisture in Your Compressed Air System

Every factory worker needs to be aware of how vulnerable their compressed air system is. The first thing to know is that the system can’t have any moisture nearby. Learning the danger of moisture in your compressed air system helps workers remain cautious while doing their jobs.

Increases Corrosion

Corrosion can increase if there’s a large amount of water near or inside the compressor’s vents. The air lines inside can become severely damaged, and the water washes away the lubricants. Maintenance costs are high for compressors, so dry the machine thoroughly before switching it back on.

Cylinder and Valves Damaged

If you’re unfamiliar with how air compressors work, one crucial thing to know is the importance of dry valves and cylinders. These components keep the motor running. If there’s water inside the air valves, it could damage the production speed. Once water affects the production speed, the rubber parts harden and cause a tear in the air compactor.

Be aware of standing water or leaks from the air compressor. Being conscious of this can increase the machine’s longevity.

Contaminating the Factory Air

While it’s a vast space, the factory can become hazardous if the compressor radiates contaminated air. When water enters the compressor, it can pollute the space, creating an unpleasant odor that leads to problems, including respiratory issues.

For warehouse operations to run smoothly, you need clean air. So keep the warehouse functioning by unclogging your water-filled tubes.

Broken Pneumatic Control System

The central cell of all factory functions is the pneumatic control system. The structure helps everything function and makes the workday go by with as few problems as possible. However, if the central unit has trapped water inside, the air systems can malfunction, causing the machines to break down.

Avoid any problems by inspecting and maintaining the air regulation systems daily. By doing so, you can avoid worrying about the potential dangers of moisture in air compressors. Keep yourself aware and take care of your air compression system.
