METHOD FOR CONTROLLING KNOCKING IN A PISTON COMPRESSOR

摘要

The invention relates to a method for controlling knocking in a piston compressor (1) and to a piston compressor (1) that is designed to carry out the method according to the invention. The method according to the invention is characterized in that, if a knocking noise (100) made by a piston (10) of the piston compressor (1) hitting a cylinder head (12) is detected by means of a structure-borne noise sensor (2) provided on the piston compressor (1), the piston stroke (16) of the piston compressor (1) is decreased or, if no knocking noise (100) is detected over a predefinable period of time, the piston stroke (16) is increased.
