4 Ways to Extend Your Air Compressor’s Life

Intelligent management of maintenance and operations of the plant’s compressed air system helps increase plant uptime, reduce unplanned shutdowns and help keep the plant profits and employee morale at peak levels.

Service Agreement for Out-Sourced Compressor Maintenance

With a full range of coverage options available, service provider inspects your air compressor for wear, damage and potential failure. Below are three different types of Air Compressor Service Agreements and their key benefits:
  1. OEM Service Schedules – Offer compressed air maintenance according to scheduled service intervals. Includes 46-point compressor inspection, filters and fluid.
  2. Annual Maintenance Agreement— Sakoon offers annual service agreements to relive plant managers from hassles of air compressor maintenance so that they may focus on production.
  3. Trouble Shoot Plan— System Failure – Call the Professionals!
Should your system ever fail, customers can contact Sakoon specialist advisors directly on the Service Hotline +92 21 111 727 777. They will keep downtimes to a minimum, make sure that your machines are repaired professionally and minimize repair costs wherever possible.

Service Kits

Screw compressor service kits are a real source for a longer lifetime of air compressor and less energy costs. As your workspace is equipped with a high-class compressor, it deserves the best service and parts. If you are tempted to use parts that merely resemble the original ones, keep in mind that in the long run, using non-original parts will cost you more and decrease the lifetime of your compressor.
Only proper maintenance using original parts and kits ensures reliable, energy-efficient performance and long lifetime of air compressors. As original parts were designed for your compressor, they are a 100% fit. Not just in terms of size but as integral parts of a system where all components work together efficiently.

Key benefits:

  • Everything you need to maintain your screw compressor is in one single kit
  • Cost effective solution (Service Kits are 5 to 10% lower in price than separate parts)
  • Assurance of high quality components
  • Easy to use
  • Higher efficiency
  • Service kits are available at our official service organization and partners
  • Low internal logistic costs
  • Longer lifetime of your screw compressor

Fluid Analysis 

Fluids are the life-blood of air compressors. Fluids keep bearings lubricated. Fluids and coolants remove the heat of compression and keep your air compressor operating smoothly. Regular fluid sampling and analysis informs you if fluid needs to be changed, if intake air is contaminated, if fluids have been mixed or if sever wear is occurring. Key benefits:
  • Current status of your lubricant and equipment
  • Positive input to determine maintenance schedule
  • Detailed history of lubricant performance
  • Better control of maintenance expenditures

Trend Tracker 

Conditioned monitoring and data management is playing a key role in the life of all equipment. More and more companies are realizing the benefits of preventative and predictive maintenance practices. Trending the performance of key components over time can provide advanced indication of imminent equipment failure. Key benefits:
  • Helps reduce unplanned plant shutdowns
  • Maximizes the life of your air compressor
  • Detailed history of lubricant performance
  • Repair before failure fixes typically are less costly
  • Minimizes downtime
Sakoon is an established service, with a variety of solutions and services to help control maintenance costs, manage risk, and protect customers’ investment. The Sakoon scheduled service programs ensure optimum performance and efficiency of compressed air systems. Sakoon have a German Trained and Certified Service Team to give complete peace of mind with compressed air installations.

Did you buy the wrong type of compressed air dryer?

Do you have a desiccant compressed air dryer in your plant? Yes? Do you know the annual running cost of that dryer? It's plugged into a power socked, so it probably uses a bit of electricity… and you need to replace the desiccant every so many years. Right? True! But for many types of desiccant air dryers, there's a hidden cost… and it is substantial! In fact, the yearly cost will probably SHOCK you! The culprit? Purge air! Purge air is air that is used to regenerate the desiccant. (the desiccant needs to be regenerated every few hours, to remove the water that it previously absorbed). There are 2 main types of desiccant dryers: Heated blower regenerated This type uses an external blower and heater to regenerate the desiccant. It requires only electricity (around 1 kW for every m3/min of compressed air). Purge regenerated This type doesn't use electricity to regenerate the desiccant... Great, right!  No!  It uses precious compressed air!!! This compressed air flow is betwe

Decoding the Duty Cycle Rating of Piston Compressors Selecting the correct air compressor for your application can be a complicated process. Before making a purchase, operators need to specify the quality and amount of air their application requires. Each compressor technology (rotary, piston, centrifugal, etc.) has an optimal flow output, so users should choose compressor technology based on the compressed airflow requirement of their application. Some compressors, like rotary screw and centrifugal, are designed to run continuously at full speed while maintaining peak airflow (defined in cubic feet per minute, or CFM). The motors and cooling systems of these compressors are engineered to run 100 percent of the time without overheating. However, this isn’t true for all compressors. Piston compressors do not have the cooling capabilities to run continuously for extended periods of time. Therefore, each piston compressor must have a specified flow output and pressure, as
