Abstract
The oil-cooled type compressor A houses therein an inspecting flow passage branched from a discharge flow passage on the secondary side of an oil separation recovering portion and joined with a suction flow passage which is a lower pressure portion than the branched point, and an oil separating element capable of capturing finer oil particles as compared with an oil separating element within the oil separating recovering portion , and houses therein an oil droplet detection means for outputting a signal electrically showing a state change upon receipt of oil droplets dropped from the oil separating element , being provided with an oil separation detector interposed in the inspecting flow passage , and a calculating portion for receiving an electric signal from the oil droplet detection means to calculate the percentage content of oil of the compressed gas from the interval of the electric signal to output it.
