On ship we have main air compressor Donghwa-Tanabe air compressor H-74. It is happend breakdown because of seizure of piston and cyl liner. We aspect that was problem in lubricator. Liner and piston with piston rings are replaced, also we replace new lubricator. After starting it was everything ok. We observe that is coming very small amount of oil from lubricator. Also we compare with another comppresors, similar quantity of is coming from another compressor. Breakdown is happend after 1200 RH.
After overhaul compressor was running 120 RH and we detect changing in oil… we remove valves from 2nd stage and it was detected same problem like before. Again seizure on piston and liner. Now we need some sugestion what to do and what to check… Look like we dont have problem with lubricating because we put new lubricator and when we compare with another compressor we dont see difference…
Thanks in advance

We have sperre hv2/285a water cooled air compressor on board. After overhauling(new piston, rings, liner,….) there is still air blowing from crankcase
Does anybody know the reason

It was overhauled by us and we have faced to,high pressure about 15 bar at first stage conbine valf.It should be 5bar.What was the problem? Please advise us.Many thanks.

Nowadays, this question is asked in coc 3. But can’t find the answer anywhere.

It breakdown because of seizure of piston and cylider liner. We suspect oil starvation that cause the breakdown or malfunction of lubricator. After overhauling the compressor and replacing the lubricator assembly we tested the compressor. During initial run all we observe pressure of 1st stage, 2nd stage, oil and water gage are all normal. Except after a minute of running we observe that there is no oil coming from lubricator going to cylinder for lubrication. And the sight glass has no indication of oil present. We check and clean strainer, replace oil filter and run again. The same problem arise, no oil coming from lubricator even the oil gage in normal pressure. I hope to hear your opinion in these problem to rectify this problem. Your comment will be highly appreciated.
