Abstract

The invention relates to a method and equipment for controlling an operating temperature of an air compressor. A compressor element (1) is used for compressing a mixture of air and oil and supplying it to an oil separator (3). In the oil separator (3), the air and the oil are separated from one another. The oil is led to an oil circulating pipe (7) so as to be returned to the compressor element. When necessary, at least some of the oil flowing in the oil circulating pipe (7) is supplied to cooling. The amount of oil to be supplied to cooling is used for controlling the operating temperature of the compressor such that it is as low as possible, but nevertheless so high that no condensation point is reached. The amount of the oil to be supplied to cooling is controlled by a thermostatic valve (11) based on a change in dimension of a controlling element such that the dimension of the controlling element is changed by an external command as necessary.
