Determining the precise timing for maintenance on any air compressor can be challenging, as it depends on various factors such as the manufacturer, model, technology, and size of the machine. At our company, we tailor our maintenance schedules to suit individual requirements by considering factors like the equipment’s operating environment, usage hours, and expected treatment. This could mean scheduling maintenance twice a year for some compressors, while others may require assessments every three months. Even if the system is not in active use, we recommend adhering to a maintenance schedule to ensure its overall condition.

We offer a comprehensive array of servicing options tailored to meet your specific system needs, ensuring optimal performance and longevity.

Our scheduled maintenance package comprises the following key services:

Visual Inspection: Our authorized technicians conduct thorough visual inspections, identifying potential issues before they escalate. For smaller systems, these inspections occur biannually, while larger systems necessitate quarterly checks.

Lubrication: Regular lubrication of moving components preserves their functionality and longevity. Depending on usage, this service is typically recommended biannually.

Air Dryer Filter Replacement: To maintain air quality and prevent the buildup of debris, filters in lubricators, receiver tanks, and other areas are routinely replaced.

Blower and Gauges Utilization: Periodic blow-downs, facilitated by approved blowers and gauges, are essential for ensuring the compressor’s efficiency, particularly in larger systems.

Oil Changes: Larger systems require timely oil changes and filter replacements to sustain proper lubrication, typically recommended every 1500 hours or six months, based on manufacturer guidelines.

Thermal Imaging Inspections: Periodic thermal imaging inspections are conducted to detect overheating or potential issues promptly.

Vapour Leak Testing: Essential for systems with refrigerant units, vapour leak testing ensures the containment of hazardous gases and materials present in compressed air.

Rest assured, our professional and experienced team is dedicated to regularly servicing our customers, providing absolute confidence, peace of mind, and swift response to any emergency breakdowns. We prioritize efficiency, reliability, and customer satisfaction, offering 24/7 availability.

The frequency of oil maintenance for your air compressor depends on its type and usage. Typically, some compressors necessitate oil changes every 1000 hours of operation, while others may require it slightly less often. However, for most compressors, it’s advisable to address oil maintenance at least once a year, in alignment with manufacturer recommendations.

The pressure depends on the size and model. As a rule of thumb, a low-pressure compressor has a pressure of 150 PSI, a medium one has between 151 and 1,000 PSI, and a large air compressor can have a PSI of up to 6,000.
