A gas compressor includes a compression mechanism, a separator tank that introduces lubricating oil to be supplied to the compression mechanism and a mixed fluid of a working fluid and lubricating oil discharged from the compression mechanism and separates the lubricating oil. An oil cooler cools the lubricating oil from the separator tank. An oil circulation path supplies cooled lubricating oil to the compression mechanism. The gas compressor includes a suction temperature sensor that detects suction temperature of the working fluid, a discharge pressure sensor that detects discharge pressure of the compressed working fluid, a rotation speed sensor that detects rotation speed of the motor. A lubricating oil state estimation unit estimates the temperature of the lubricating oil based on the detected suction temperature, discharge pressure, and rotation speed of the motor. The lubricating oil state estimation unit uses this result to estimate the deterioration state of the lubricating oil.
A gas compressor including a compression mechanism that compresses a sucked working fluid, a separator tank that introduces lubricating oil to be supplied to the compression mechanism and a mixed fluid of the working fluid and the lubricating oil discharged from the compression mechanism and separates the lubricating oil from the compressed working fluid, an oil cooler that introduces and cools the lubricating oil separated in the separator tank, an oil circulation path that supplies the lubricating oil cooled by the oil cooler to the compression mechanism, and a motor that drives the compression mechanism and is isolated from the oil circulation path, the gas compressor comprising:
