Air compressor: a must for cable blowing machine
As a device that converts mechanical energy into gas pressure energy, air compressor plays an important role in the operation of cable blowing machine. Different types of cable blowing machines have different design parameters, application scenarios and performance requirements, which also put forward diverse requirements for the selection of air compressors. Therefore, ensuring the matching of air compressor and cable blowing machine is the key to ensuring the smooth progress of optical cable laying operation. This article will elaborate on how to choose a suitable air compressor according to the models of different cable blowing machines.
When choosing an air compressor to match the cable blowing machine, multiple aspects need to be considered comprehensively:
1. Understanding the needs of cable blowing machine
First of all, it is necessary to clarify the specific model, technical specifications and operation requirements of the cable blowing machine. Different types of cable blowing machines have differences in optical cable diameter, laying distance, pipeline type, etc., which will directly affect the selection of air compressors. For example, laying large-diameter, long-distance optical cables requires high-pressure, high-flow air compressors to provide sufficient power; while small, short-distance laying operations may require a smaller-sized air compressor to meet the needs.
2. Evaluate gas demand and pressure requirements
According to the technical parameters of the cable blowing machine, evaluate the required gas volume and pressure range. Generally speaking, when the cable blowing machine is operating, it requires a continuous and stable high-pressure airflow to push the optical cable forward, so the exhaust volume, pressure and other parameters of the air compressor need to match the needs of the cable blowing machine. At the same time, the pressure stability of the air compressor must also be considered to ensure that stable power support can be continuously provided during long-term operations.
3. Consider the working environment and conditions
Cable blowing operations often need to be carried out outdoors or in complex environments, such as high temperature, high humidity, and high altitude. These environmental factors will affect the performance of the air compressor. Therefore, when choosing an air compressor, you need to consider whether it can operate stably in a specific environment. For example, in a high temperature environment, you should choose an air compressor with good heat dissipation performance; in high altitude areas, you need to choose an air compressor that can adapt to a thin air environment.
4. Pay attention to energy efficiency and energy saving
With the improvement of environmental awareness and the increase in energy costs, energy efficiency and energy saving have become important considerations when choosing an air compressor. Energy-saving and high-efficiency air compressors can significantly reduce operating costs and reduce the impact on the environment. When choosing, you can pay attention to parameters such as the energy efficiency ratio and power factor of the air compressor, as well as whether advanced energy-saving technologies such as permanent magnet frequency conversion and two-stage compression are used.
5. Consider maintenance and maintenance
The maintenance and maintenance of the air compressor is directly related to its service life and operating efficiency. Therefore, when choosing an air compressor, you need to consider the convenience and cost of its maintenance. Choosing air compressor products with good brands, reliable quality and perfect after-sales service can reduce maintenance costs and extend service life. At the same time, it is also necessary to pay attention to factors such as the replacement cycle of the air compressor's wearing parts, the difficulty of maintenance and the supply of accessories.
6. Pay attention to safety and reliability
In cable blowing operations, safety and reliability are the primary considerations. As the power source of the cable blowing machine, the safety and reliability of the air compressor are directly related to the safety and stability of the entire operation process. Therefore, when choosing an air compressor, it is necessary to pay attention to its safety performance, such as whether it has safety functions such as overload protection and pressure protection; at the same time, it is also necessary to consider its reliability and choose air compressor products that have been strictly tested and verified to ensure that it maintains stable and reliable performance in long-term operation.
TFN's T500W and T700CQ/T700CY models of cable blowing machines have their own advantages in application, so the demand for air compressors also presents differentiated characteristics.
Diesel mobile screw air compressors used by T700CQ/T700CY: These two cable blowing machines are usually used to handle more complex and difficult cable blowing tasks, such as long-distance, large-diameter optical cable laying. Therefore, they require higher-performance air compressors to provide continuous and stable power support. The diesel mobile screw air compressor, with its large displacement (12-15 cubic meters) and high rated pressure (12-15 bar), meets the needs of T700CQ/T700CY and ensures stable and reliable construction.
Diesel or gasoline mobile screw air compressors used by T500W: Compared with the T700C series, T500W may be more used in small and medium-sized optical cable laying projects, and its air compressor configuration is more flexible and diverse. Depending on the diameter of the pipe, the T500W air compressor has a low displacement of 1.5-2 cubic meters to meet the needs of small diameter pipes, and a high displacement of 10-12 cubic meters to cope with larger diameter pipes. This flexibility not only reduces costs, but also improves the applicability of the equipment.
