For facilities relying on industrial air compressors, maximizing productivity and minimizing downtime is paramount. Brabazon stands at the forefront of this mission, championing the cause of a regularly scheduled air compressor audit to ensure optimal performance and longevity of these pivotal machines. Keep reading to learn why these audits are so important, what they tend to include, and how Brabazon can support you in this endeavor. 

The Imperative of Regular Air Compressor Audits

Industrial air compressors, though robust, are not immune to wear and tear. Regular monitoring and maintenance of these systems are essential to detect and preempt potential issues. By proactively assessing how these compressors and their ancillary systems operate, you can circumvent potential problems, ensuring uninterrupted operations. By sidelining such challenges, you steer clear from potential inventory and profit losses that can arise from unforeseen downtime.

Delving Deep: What Does an Air Compressor Audit Entail?

An air compressor audit is more than a cursory glance at the system. It’s a meticulous evaluation prioritizing:

• Air Demands and Supply: Assessing if the compressor meets the air demand of the facility efficiently.
• Detection and Address of Leaks: Leaks can be significant culprits behind efficiency drops.
• Pressurization Levels: Ensuring ideal air compression levels in the system to meet demands without overexertion.
• Bag Piping Assessment: Checking the state of the bag piping to spot any areas of concern.

Addressing these components may necessitate the replacement of filters, separators, and occasionally even the piping, ensuring they match the system’s size and capacity requirements. Further, tweaks in system pressure might be required, and any detected leaks need swift redressal.
