Guidelines for the Use and Maintenance of Roots Fan Filters
The filter screen of Roots blower plays a crucial role in the blower system, and its application and cleaning maintenance are of great significance for ensuring the normal operation and extending the service life of the blower.
1、 Application of filter screen
1. Filtering function: The main function of the filter screen is to filter the air, impurities, and dust entering the interior of the Roots blower, thereby protecting key components such as blades and bearings from wear and corrosion, ensuring the cleanliness and normal operation of the blower.
2. Protective function: In environments containing a large amount of dust, filters play a crucial protective role. It can effectively prevent dust from entering the interior of the fan, avoiding damage to the equipment inside the fan caused by dust, extending the service life of the equipment, and reducing the frequency of equipment maintenance.
3. Improving work efficiency: The filter can filter out moisture and impurities that fall into the wind, making the air intake faster and the exhaust smoother, thereby improving the work efficiency of the Roots blower.
2、 Cleaning of the filter screen
1. Cleaning cycle: In order to maintain the filtering effect of the filter, it is necessary to regularly clean the filter. It is generally recommended to clean the air filter every half month, but the specific cleaning cycle needs to be adjusted according to factors such as the usage environment and the running time of the fan.
2. Cleaning method:
① Compressed air blowing: When the surface of the filter is not very dirty, clean compressed air can be used for double-sided blowing until no dust particles are visible to the eyes under light. This method is simple and easy to implement, and will not cause any damage to the filter.
② Washing: If the surface of the filter is already very dirty, it needs to be washed with water. During the cleaning process, it is necessary to pay attention to protecting the wire mesh on the filter screen to avoid deformation or damage. Meanwhile, for vulnerable parts such as filter cotton, they may not achieve their original filtering effect after washing and need to be replaced in a timely manner.
3. Attention:
① When cleaning the filter screen, it is necessary to turn off the power supply of the Roots blower host and ensure that the connectors on the inlet pipeline have been removed to avoid accidents during the cleaning process.
② After cleaning, the filter screen needs to be dried and ensured to be dry before installation to avoid affecting the normal operation of the fan.
③ If the stainless steel wire on the filter screen is found to be deformed or damaged during the cleaning process, it needs to be replaced and used in a timely manner to ensure the filtering effect of the filter screen.
In summary, the filter screen of Roots blower plays an irreplaceable role in the fan system. In order to ensure the normal operation and prolong the service life of the fan, it is necessary to regularly clean and maintain the filter screen. At the same time, attention should be paid to protecting the filter screen and avoiding damage to the fan during the cleaning process.
