The number one reason to rebuild your Atlas
Copco air compressor airend is economic. Rebuilding
the Atlas Copco air end will extend the life of your air compressor. There
are three basic considerations when deciding to buy a new Atlas Copco compressor
air-end or rebuilding the air end before it fails.
How do I prevent a failure of my Atlas Copco
Air Compressor airend?
The best way to prevent a failure of your
compressor is a proper maintenance and testing program. Following Atlas Copco’s
recommended maintenance schedules and changing the oil regularly will help keep
the compressor “clean” and avoid the most common breakdown caused when
contaminated oil damages the bearings and seals in the compressor air-end.
When should you rebuild
your Atlas Copco Air Compressor airend?
The best time to rebuild your compressor air
end is before it fails. The life of the air-end depends on Atlas Copco’s manufacturing,
the environment the compressor runs in, the maintenance program that has been
used on the compressor, the type of oil the compressor uses, and the way that
the compressor is used. The most critical factor is the maintenance program
because proper maintenance of a compressor will overcome most of the other
factors. You should be running routine analysis of oil, bearing vibration,
bearing temperature, and air end temperature. If these parameters start to show
unwanted variances, it is probable time to rebuild the air end.
How much will it cost to rebuild
my Atlas Copco Air Compressor airend?
Air end rebuild costs vary depending on the
HP of your Atlas Copco Air Compressor and the condition of the airend, but in
general a complete air end rebuild can be accomplished for half the price of a
new air end. You must factor in costs for removal and installation, as well as
any shipping costs to and from OEM Air Compressor. Oil and filters should also
be budgeted.
