Have you considered your air compressor as a potential bomb?

If you have not, then you better!

Use non-oil free air compressors with caution. Chances are, your
air compressor pipelines may have already accumulated a sizable
amount of oil.

Does your air compressor work non-stop? Is the inter-cooler or
after-cooler efficient? Is your compressed air hot?

The oil film in the pipes turns to carbon with heat. The
oxygen-rich and moist atmosphere inside the pipes can turn the
oil into acids.

It just needs a spark or a hot spot to ignite this.

Boom!!

Did I frighten you? Don't be.
