ENSURING EFFICIENCY THROUGH PREVENTION

Preventative maintenance is crucial for the longevity and efficiency of your rotary screw air-end compressors. At VEI Rebuilding, we specialize in identifying and addressing potential issues before they lead to major problems. Our preventative strategies not only enhance performance but also reduce operational costs. Trust us to keep your equipment running smoothly and efficiently, ensuring you meet your production demands.

​

REGULAR MAINTENANCE IS KEY:

​

Regular maintenance is crucial for the performance, longevity, and safety of your air compressor. 

Regular maintenance can:

​

• Prevent a catastrophic failure.

• Catch issues when they can still be fixed.

• Minimize the risk of costly downtime.

• Increase efficiency and save energy costs.

• Extend the lifespan of the air compressor.

​

 NEGLECTING MAINTENANCE CAN LEAD TO:

​

• Reduced efficiency and increased energy consumption.

• Premature component wear and costly repairs.

• Increased risk of accidents and safety hazards.

• Decreased air quality.

​

CHOOSE A RELIABLE AIR COMPRESSOR:

​

Even industry-leading compressor companies may fall short when it comes to service and support after you buy the product. If you choose air compressors that don’t work out, you may be stuck dealing with frequent service needs and interruptions to your business. We recommend working with our professionals to pick a reliable air compressor and to establish a maintenance plan. 

Essential Maintenance Tasks:

• Check ventilation, operating temperatures, and pressure readings.

​

WEEKLY:

​

• Inspect air filters and clean or replace as needed.

• Check for air leaks in hoses and connections.

• Inspect belts for wear and tension.

​

WEAR AND TEAR LIABILITY AGREEMENT:

​

• Air compressors, like all mechanical equipment, are subject to wear and tear over time. 

• This includes, but is not limited to, the gradual degradation of components such as:

• Seals and gaskets.

• Valves and pistons.

• Bearings and belts.

• Motor components.

• Running the air compressor beyond its operating specification can put excessive strain on the system and reduce the lifespan of the compressor. 

• The service provider ([Service Provider Name]) will perform maintenance and repairs to the best of their ability, using industry-standard practices and quality parts.

• However, [Service Provider Name] shall not be held liable for failures or malfunctions resulting from normal wear and tear.

• This agreement does not exclude liability for failures caused by faulty workmanship, or the use of defective parts provided by the service provider.

• The client acknowledges that proper and consistent maintenance is a key component to extending the life of their air compressor.

• The client also acknowledges that even with proper maintenance, normal wear and tear will occur.

​

Important Notes:

​

• Always follow the manufacturer's recommendations for maintenance procedures and schedules.

• If you are unsure about any maintenance task, consult a qualified air compressor technician.

• Safety is paramount. Disconnect the power supply before performing any maintenance.
