Low Lube Oil Pressure

  • Question Title: Low Lube Oil Pressure

After complete overhaul of the reciprocating air KAJI compressor, the compressor tripped after 3 hours of operation due to low lube oil pressure.
Filter have been replaced. pressure relief valves are also new. pump running amps are also in normal range.no leakage observed at the piping. What might have caused the pressure drop?

Oil line blocked may be due to dirt.  Worn metal of bearing so more clearance so low oil pressure.
