Provided are a compressor and a monitoring system that can specify a cause of an anomaly of a sensed value of a sensor. A compressor (1) includes: a temperature sensor (11A) that senses a temperature of a compressed air on a discharge side of a low-pressure-stage compressor body (3) and on an upstream side of an intercooler (5); a pressure sensor (12A) that senses a pressure of the compressed air on the discharge side of the low-pressure-stage compressor body (3); a temperature sensor (11B) that senses a temperature of the compressed air on an intake side of a high-pressure-stage compressor body (6) and on a downstream side of the intercooler (5); a temperature sensor (11C) that senses a temperature of the compressed air on a discharge side of the high-pressure-stage compressor body (6); a controller (8) that decides whether or not an anomaly has occurred in sensed values of the sensors (11A), (11B), (11C), and (12A), and estimates a cause of the anomaly; and a display device (9) that displays the cause of the anomaly estimated by the controller (8).

A separator system may include a separator for separating a liquid (e.g. an operating liquid received from a liquid ring pump) from a mixture comprising the liquid and another substance; a level indicator coupled to the separator, the level indicator being for indicating a level of the liquid in the separator, the level indicator comprising a tubular member fluidly connected to the separator such that the liquid within the separator may flow from the separator into the tubular member; and a liquid line configured to supply liquid to the separator, the liquid line coupled to the level indicator such that the tubular member is fluidly connected between the liquid line and the separator.

A motor-operated compressor includes a compression part including a fixed scroll and an orbiting scroll that form a compression chamber configured to compress fluid by an orbiting motion of the orbiting scroll relative to the fixed scroll. A motor part is disposed at one side of the compression part, and configured to generate a drive force to cause the orbiting scroll to make the orbiting motion. A rotary shaft is connected to the motor part and the orbiting scroll to transmit the drive force generated by the motor part to the orbiting scroll. A main frame is disposed between the compression part and the motor part in an axial direction of the rotary shaft, and configured to support the fixed scroll in the axial direction of the rotary shaft. A discharge chamber is formed between the fixed scroll and the main frame, and fluid discharged from the compression part passes through the discharge chamber to outside of the motor-operated compressor.

A dryer for a compressed gas provided with a vessel with a drying agent and a drying zone-and a regeneration zone; at least one intermediate zone that, viewed in the direction of rotation of the drum, is situated between the regeneration zone and the drying zone and which is provided with a separate inlet and an outlet that is shared with or connected to the outlet of the regeneration zone; a tap-off pipe that branches off from the outlet of the drying zone and connects to the aforementioned separate inlet of the intermediate zone; one or more blowers in the tap-off pipe for effectuating an intermediate flow from the drying zone, where the dryer is configured such that the entire flow of gas to be dried supplied to the dryer is first guided through the regeneration zone.

A compound engine system includes a rotary engine with rotating chambers, a compressor section in successive communication with the rotating chambers, and a turbine section in successive communication with the rotating chambers. The turbine section has an output shaft. The output shaft and the engine shaft are drivingly engaged to each other and wherein the turbine section has a power output corresponding to from 20% to 35% of a total power output of the compound engine system. A method of compounding power in a compound engine system is also discussed.

A vacuum line and method for controlling a vacuum line in which an auxiliary pumping device and a diluent gas injection device are controlled according to a first operating mode in which the pressure prevailing in the discharge pipe is maintained at less than or equal to 20,000 Pa or according to a second operating mode in which the pressure prevailing in the discharge pipe is greater than 20,000 Pa, and the injection of a diluent gas into the stream of the pumped gases is controlled, downstream of an intake of the rough pumping device, such as into the discharge pipe and/or into the rough pumping device and/or into the auxiliary pumping device by the diluent gas injection device in the second operating mode.

A power saving vacuuming pump system is based on complete-bearing-sealing and dry-large-pressure-difference root vacuuming root pumps includes an input valve at an input end of a vacuum space for receiving gas mixture of saturation water vapor and non-condensed air from a condenser of a power plant; a first root vacuum pump connected to the input valve for receiving gas mixture from the input valve and then compressing the gas mixture; a second root vacuum pump connected to the first root vacuum pump for receiving gas mixture from the first root vacuum pump and then compressing the gas mixture. Inner connection walls between the vacuum chamber and the two bearing chambers are installed respective bearings which are installed to be around the driving shaft, and thus all the vacuum chamber and the two bearing chambers are tightly sealed. The vacuum chamber is completely dried so as to prevent from internal emulsion.

A fluid filter includes a body portion and a filter membrane portion. The body portion includes at least one aperture formed therein, wherein the filter membrane portion is disposed in the at least one aperture to filter contaminants from a fluid (e.g., a lubricant). The fluid filter is installed in a fluid passage of scroll compressor, wherein an axial movement of the fluid filter is restrained.

A filter and throttle unit for a scroll compressor. The filter and throttle unit includes a housing which has housing walls, an opening which acts as a throttle, and a filter element which is arranged within the housing walls of the housing. The opening is arranged in one of the housing walls.

A screw compressor includes a hollow casing inside which a reservoir for air and oil is realized and on which, in an upper position, a suction group for air from outside the reservoir having at least an air intake valve and at least an air filter; on one lateral end a flow block provided with an oil/air separation device and an oil filter and at least a valve for extracting compressed air are disposed. The casing is provided with an opening on the opposite side with respect to that on which the flow block is provided. The compressor includes a casing closure flange to which a screw compression unit is fixed that when the flange is placed to close the opening causes the insertion into the reservoir of the unit.
