Trust The Process

Section 3

3 - A

Receiving the Compressor

  • Allocate a job number and tracking number
  • Tracking number is stamped on to the casing of the compressor
  • From this we can track the compressors history of repairs and spares
  • Capture full details of compressor along with pictures prior to strip-down

Strip Down and Inspection

  • The compressor is completely stripped for inspection
  • Each component is stripped according to our strip report checklist (Condition, Size, etc.)
  • From these results we can determine the possible causes of failure and inform the customers to avoid repeat failures in the future e.g: liquid slugging, single phasing, overheating, etc.

Recommended Spare Parts List & Repairs

  • From the captured information during strip-down we then compile a full list of spares and repairs required to refurbish the compressor

Assembly

  • Note: Each item on our checklist is signed off by our foreman before being passed
  • Proceed with repairs such as cylinder rebored and re-sleeving, motor rewinds, crankshaft regrind, etc.
  • Requisition spares required from our in-house spares department
  • Assembly checked and tested
  • Axial Thrust
  • Torrques (conrod bolts, heads and covers, motor bolts, etc.)
  • Clearances and tolerances
  • Motor air gap
  • Motor insulation test
  • Thermisters are tested

Test run

  • Nitrogen pressure test ( minimum 2200kpa)
  • Oil pressure test (as per manufacturers specifications)
  • Running amps (using our VSD drive we can control speed and incoming voltage)
  • Pump-Down Efficiency test (we will only pass the compressor at a minimum 4min holding)
  • Capacity control (capacity regulating devices operation)

Note: We will not pass a compressor until it has been fully tested!
