BOGE Minimum Pressure Valve Maintenance Kit Replacement – 2230742672P

The 2230742672P MPV Maintenance Kit is designed to restore the performance of the compressor’s Minimum Pressure Valve (MPV). The MPV maintains the minimum pressure required inside the air/oil separator vessel, ensuring proper oil circulation, efficient oil separation, and reliable compressed air delivery. It also functions as a check valve, preventing compressed air from flowing back into the compressor during shutdown.

Working Process

1. Compressor Start-up
   • When the compressor starts, the MPV remains closed to build the required minimum internal pressure in the separator vessel.
2. Oil Circulation
   • Once the minimum pressure is established, lubricating oil circulates effectively through the airend, bearings, and cooling circuit, ensuring proper lubrication.
3. Oil Separation
   • The maintained pressure improves the efficiency of the oil separator element, reducing oil carryover into the compressed air system.
4. Air Delivery
   • After the preset minimum pressure is reached, the MPV gradually opens and allows compressed air to flow to the plant air network.
5. Check Valve Function
   • During shutdown or when downstream pressure exceeds compressor pressure, the valve closes to prevent reverse airflow into the compressor package.
6. Maintenance Function
   • Over time, seals, springs, valve seats, and other internal components wear out. The 2230742672P Maintenance Kit replaces these wear parts, restoring proper valve operation, reducing pressure loss, and improving compressor efficiency.
