Preventive Maintenance Servicing involves regularly scheduled maintenance and equipment inspections to prevent unexpected breakdowns and failures. This proactive approach helps to identify and address potential issues before they escalate into more serious problems, ultimately reducing downtime and increasing the lifespan of the equipment.
By conducting preventive maintenance, businesses can save on repair costs, improve overall efficiency, and ensure that their machinery and compressors operate at peak performance.
Air compressor maintenance services should keep in mind the following points:
Regularly check and replace filters: Regular filter replacement ensures that the air in your air compressor system remains clean, preventing contaminants from entering the system and affecting performance.
Maintain the lubrication system: Regular inspection and replacement of lubricating oil can ensure the normal operation of the equipment’s lubrication system, reduce component wear and friction, and extend the life of the equipment.
Inspect and maintain compressor components: Regularly inspect and maintain various components of the air compressor, such as valves, seals, compression screws, etc., to ensure their normal operation and avoid failures.
Other factors：
Usage
Air compressors that are used more frequently will generally require more frequent maintenance. Internal filters accumulate dirt more quickly as they handle more air and particles, so they must be cleaned or replaced more frequently. Likewise, high-frequency use can cause the lubricant to age more quickly and components to wear out, requiring more frequent lubrication system maintenance.
Environment
If your compressor is in a dusty environment, the air compressor’s filter and cooling system can easily become clogged with dust and impurities, affecting the performance and lifespan of the equipment. It is very important to clean and blow out the compressor regularly to remove dust and dirt.
Most people will understand that a machine fails due to a “breakdown,” “overheating,” or “breakdown,” without realizing that the PM service is not kept up to date, or that the necessary procedures are not in place or followed to help prevent these events happened.
