Servicing Air Compressors at CASCO USA
With air compressors, the old adage “an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure” certainly holds true. Just as cars require regular maintenance, compressors do too. No one would ever think to drive a car 100,000 miles without getting it checked; yet compressors often run for over 4,000 hours without a service appointment!
Though understanding the amount of work a compressor does might be difficult, it is not impossible. Building on the car comparison from earlier, air compressors have many moving parts. Though the physical machine isn’t traveling anywhere, the parts still complete many miles of work. Similarly, to how mileage on a car marks maintenance intervals, hours on a compressor designate service needs.
Regular maintenance can have huge long-term benefits. A well-serviced air compressor lasts longer, lessening the need for costly equipment repairs or upgrades. Regular maintenance can also help increase current machine efficiency. By catching problems early, system output can be more usable overall.
To ensure the best system attention, schedule regular maintenance visits. Though each installation varies, generally service should occur at a minimum of every 4,000 work hours or once a year. However, the surrounding environment, including level of contaminants, frequency of work, and level of use, have a huge impact on machine wear. These factors affect how service should be scheduled. To determine the best schedule for a particular system, stay in touch with service professionals.
During a preventative maintenance (PM) visit, a technician will check important elements of the machine. Particularly important areas that wear out and will need replaced are filters and belts. A PM often includes valve inspection, component cleaning, and lubrication checks to ensure the best machine performance quality.
Only highly trained technicians should perform service. Luckily, CASCO USA technicians are factory trained and certified; they know the ins and outs of servicing air compressors.
