Abstract:
Method for preventing condensate in the oil of an oil-injected compressor (1), characterised in that before the compressor element (2) is stopped, when the maximum pressure (pmax) in the consumer network (16) has been reached, the compressor element continues to be driven until the temperature (T) of the oil or the compressed gas is lower than a set fixed or calculated minimum value (Tmin) above which there is no or as little condensate as possible in the oil.
