Hi,

Yes it is perfectly normal to run this machine 24 hours loaded. In fact, it's the best condition for screw compressors to run!

If the temperature is too high, please check the following:

  • Is the oil cooler clean?
  • Is the oil level OK?
  • Is the ambient temperature OK?

Most of the time, the problem is either a dirty oil cooler, or a very hot compressor room.. or both!

Please check those first. If it is still running hot, we'll look at some other options..

Good luck!
