Frequently asked questions
What is the best type of air compressor for manufacturing?
A rotary screw compressor is typically best for high-output manufacturing - a positive-displacement mechanism with two helical screws provides continuous, pulse-free air, more efficient than piston models for 24/7 operation.
How often does an industrial compressor require servicing?
In high-demand environments we recommend a minor service every 2,000 hours and a major service every 4,000-8,000 hours. Regular servicing prevents unplanned downtime and ensures PSSR 2000 compliance.
Do you provide emergency compressor repair?
Yes - we operate a 24/7 emergency response team. Our Atlas Copco trained engineers carry an extensive inventory of genuine spare parts, filters and lubricants to perform on-site repairs and minimise production loss.
Can you help reduce our energy costs?
Absolutely. A professional energy audit using data-logging often identifies savings of up to 60%. VSD technology and heat recovery let you repurpose waste heat for space heating or process water, lowering overheads.
What is a Written Scheme of Examination (WSE)?
A WSE is a statutory requirement under the Pressure Systems Safety Regulations 2000 - it identifies which parts of a pressure system need inspecting and at what intervals. Our certified engineers act as your 'Competent Person'.
