Tips for Preventative Compressed Air System Maintenance
- Keep Your System Cool
Arizona’s extreme heat can push your system to its limits. Without proper cooling, components can overheat and fail prematurely. Make sure your compressor is well-ventilated and operating in a temperature-controlled environment. For detailed recommendations on improving system performance, check out the U.S. Department of Energy’s page on Compressed Air Systems.
- Monitor and Replace Filters
Filters are crucial for maintaining air quality and reducing wear on your system. Clogged filters force your system to work harder, this increases energy consumption. Our maintenance plan keeps you up to date on filter replacements for your system. This is an easy way to improve efficiency and prolong the lifespan of your compressed air system.
- Check for Leaks Regularly
Leaks are one of the most common issues with industrial air compressors. A single leak can impact energy efficiency, driving up costs. During your compressed air system maintenance, we inspect hoses, joints, and fittings for any signs of leaks.
Watch Out for Improper Refrigerated Air Dryer Sizing
One of the other critical issues in these environments is the improper sizing of refrigerated air dryers. Non-certified salespeople have historically been negligent when it comes to correctly sizing dryers for high ambient conditions in Arizona and Nevada. This negligence often leads to undersized dryers that cannot handle the high temperatures, resulting in poor system performance, moisture buildup, and increased maintenance costs.
This negligence can be avoided by working with CAGI-certified specialists who understand the importance of proper sizing for high ambient conditions. Improper sizing of refrigerated air dryers can result in compressed air quality falling to Class 6 or even Class 7, which is commonly referred to as “liquid.”
