What should we do if the Roots blower leaks oil?

During the operation of Roots blower, it is very important to ensure sufficient lubricating oil, and insufficient lubricating oil will lead to gear damage. Therefore, it is necessary to add lubricating oil regularly. However, sometimes the Roots blower may suffer from oil leakage, oil seepage, oil injection, oil leakage, etc.

One possibility is that oil injection is found during restart after the fan is replaced or added with lubricating oil. This may be caused by adding too much lubricating oil, which exceeds the red mark position, resulting in fuel injection or oil leakage. The solution to this problem is very simple, that is, after the equipment is shut down, extract the excess oil, but pay attention not to add too much lubricating oil.

On the other hand, the oil leakage and seepage after several years of fan operation may be caused by oil seal wear. In this case, replace the oil seal with a new one and check the wear of the main shaft and bearing. If the main shaft or bearing is severely worn, it may be necessary to send the equipment back to the manufacturer for maintenance.

In addition, the oil leakage problem of Roots blower may also be caused by the collision of the main shaft. If the main shaft collides during processing, it may cause concave and convex points on the main shaft, which may cause oil leakage of the fan.

The oil leakage problem caused by different reasons requires different solutions, so it is important to feed back the problem to the manufacturer in time and take corresponding measures according to the specific situation.
