RMSC is your one-stop-shop for air compressor repairs, with a 24/7 full-service facility and experienced team. Air compressor repair is the process of diagnosing, troubleshooting, and fixing issues that may arise with air compressors. Air compressors are machines that convert power into compressed air, which can be used to power tools and equipment in various industries, such as manufacturing, construction, and automotive repair. Air compressor repair services may include preventative maintenance, routine inspections, and repairs of various components such as compressors, motors, belts, and hoses. Common issues that may require repair include air leaks, pressure problems, oil contamination, and motor failure. Website: https://rmsccolorado.com/air-compressor/

1. WHICH INDUSTRIAL
AIR COMPRESSOR
REPAIRS ARE MOST
FREQUENTLY
PERFORMED?

2. Introduction
Industrial air compressors that power
pneumatic tools, actuators, grippers,
conveyors, and spray systems
frequently run constantly to fulfill the
plant's high workload needs. These
days, compressors are quite
dependable, particularly the rotary
screw variety. Yet issues can still
occur even with proper upkeep. The
most frequent issues you should
anticipate are listed below, along with
the anticipated air compressor repair
that will be required.

3. Compressor Operation
It is necessary to comprehend the operation of
industrial air compressor sales in order to
identify potential problems. Compressors with
reciprocating and rotating screws are the two
most popular varieties. Although devices
compress air in various ways, their fundamental
ideas are the same.
Two meshed helical screws are used in rotary
screw compressors. As they rotate, they take in
air and compress it until it reaches a smaller
and smaller volume before releasing it into the
tank. For lubrication, heat removal, and sealing
between screws and housing, the majority of
rotary screw compressors depend on oil.

4. Typical
Compressor Issues
The majority of issues that compressor
operators encounter may be classified
into one of these five categories:
• The compressor won't turn on
• The compressor won't turn off.
• An excessive amount of oil in the
atmosphere
• Reduced Flow and/or Pressure
Frequently turning off
Most malfunctions are caused by issues
with switches, filters, or sensors. Here's
a deeper look at the most important
fixes.

5. The compressor won't turn on
Potential offenders include:
faulty switch
faulty transducer for
pressure Drive coupling
or belt breakage
Not functioning unloader
valve The starter capacitor
has worn out.
The motorhas worn out (it might be loose
capacitor wires or worn windings).
In each situation, the damaged
part has to be replaced.

6. The compressor won't turn off.
This suggests that either the pressure sensor is broken or the system is not producing the necessary
pressure. If the former, then a clogged air intake filter or malfunctioning input valve/controls are
most likely the cause of the issue. It might also indicate worn piston seals or rings in a reciprocating
compressor. An air leak in the system might be another reason.
