What is a potential consequence of having dust in the compression cylinder?

Having dust in the compression cylinder can lead to a significant consequence such as an increased likelihood of a fire. Dust can act as an insulator and restrict airflow, leading to overheating of the components within the compressor. This overheating can ignite the dust and other combustible materials present, resulting in a fire hazard.

Moreover, dust contamination can compromise the lubrication within the compressor system, contributing to friction and heat generation. The presence of foreign materials can also create blockages or cause damage to internal components, exacerbating overheating issues. Therefore, maintaining cleanliness in the compression cylinder is crucial to prevent such fire risks and ensure the safe operation of the compressor system.
