2.2 Function description
Function principle
of the air end
The air end operates according to the displacement principle. In the housing,
the main and secondary screws are driven by means of an electric motor.
Both screws have screw-shaped profiles, intermeshing without contact.
Together with the housing wall, these screws form chambers which gradually
reduce in size, seen in air flow direction.
Rotation of the rotors causes the air taken in to be compressed to the final
pressure in the chambers.
During compression oil is continuously injected into the air end. This having a
cooling, sealing and lubricating function.
