Atlas copco GA160 oil pressure goes low in unload,high oil temp
Question
hello ,
i am running a GA 160 Atlascopco oil screw compressor .
The oil injection pressure of this compressor became very low when unloaded ,
the pressure goes as down as 7 psi , ( the compressor does not trip in this point, this is another issue ) the oil reservoir pressure goes to 20 psi and less . Oil injection temperature also high up to 95 (where normal is near 65 )
I have changed the oil filter ,oil and oi/air separator , checked load /unload valve
the problem is not solved yet.
Thanks
TA
