Roots blower maintenance guide: from common problems to easy solutions
**Know the pain points first:
Once the Roots blower goes on strike, the production line may be directly paralyzed! Oil leakage, abnormal noise, insufficient air flow... These problems not only affect efficiency, but may also cause greater equipment damage. Don't worry, let's investigate and solve it step by step!

**1. Common fault diagnosis**
-Oil leakage issue:
Oil seal aging or bearing wear are the main causes. First check if the oil level is too high, and then observe if there are cracks in the oil seal. If the oil leakage is severe, it is recommended to replace the oil seal and bearing directly, so as not to lose the bigger picture for small gains!
-* * Abnormal noise * *:
Gear wear, loose belts, or rotor collisions can all cause "clanging clanging" noise. First, stop the machine and check the gear clearance (standard 0.08~0.12mm), then tighten the belt. The noise is likely to be reduced.
-Insufficient air volume:
Filter blockage, pipeline leakage, or rotor fouling can all lead to "lack of power". First clean the filter screen, then check the sealing of the pipeline to see if the rotor needs to be cleaned and maintained.
**2 Detailed explanation of repair steps**
-Step: Prepare**
power failure! Listing!. Remember to release the pipeline pressure to avoid accidental start-up.
-Step 2: Disassembly and Inspection**
Remove the casing and gearbox cover in order, with a focus on inspecting the rotor, gears, and bearings. Measure the gap with a feeler gauge, shine a flashlight on the crack, and don't miss any details.
-Step 3: Replace Accessories**
It is recommended to use original parts for oil seals and bearings, and replace the gear pairs (don't just replace one!). Applying some lubricating grease when installing a new oil seal can extend its lifespan.
-Step 4: Test Run and Debugging**
Start by tapping and trying to turn, and listen for a steady sound. Measure the air volume and pressure again to ensure they reach the calibration values. If there is vibration, recalibrate the rotor balance.
**3 Daily Maintenance Tips**
-* * Weekly * *: Check the oil level and clean the filter screen (blowing with compressed air is most convenient).
-* * Monthly * *: Tighten the bolts and check the tightness of the belt (preferably by pressing down 10mm).
-Every six months: Change the lubricating oil, use 220 medium load engine oil for gears, and lithium grease for bearings.
**4. Avoid pitfalls reminder**
-Don't use inferior accessories! Saving tens of yuan may result in losing the entire equipment.
-Don't ignore the small noise! Often a precursor to a malfunction.
-Record data after repair! Can quickly compare and analyze during the next malfunction.
