  • Patent number: 8317484
    Abstract: An oil-injected compressor, with an oil circuit for lubrication, and an oil separating device which is used to separate the oil from the compressed air. A self-resetting temperature switch, which is used to switch off the compressor unit when the maximum temperature limit of the incoming compressed air is reached, is provided in the region of the inlet of the compressed air, which contains oil, in the oil separating device. At least one non-self-resetting additional temperature switch is provided in the internal area of the oil separating device, which immediately switches off the compressor unit following a fire or an explosion of the compressed air, which contains oil, and which is contained in the oil separating device.

  • Publication number: 20080206085
    Abstract: The invention relates to an oil-injected compressor, in particular, an oil-injected mobile screw compressor with a motor-driven compressor unit, for the generation of compressed air cooperating with an oil circuit for lubrication, the oil tank of which is housed in a subsequent oil separator device for separating the oil from the compressed air. Means for oil temperature regulation are provided, comprising a cooler with a fan. The means for oil temperature regulation comprises a speed variable drive for the fan as adjuster, a regulator device for the speed of the fan matches the heat transferred to the ambient cooling air by the cooler.
