In industrial compressors the lubrication is done by pump. Forced lubrication system.
This system allows smaller clearances and quieter operation.
The oil pressure is important. It is measured in relation to the suction pressure and is indicated by the manufacturers according to the operating mode of the compressor. Particular care is required with some dirt that may penetrate the lubrication circuit. If necessary, a supplementary filter should be used.
The type of oil must be indicated by the compressor manufacturer according to the operating mode.
