Maintenance and repair of Atlas Copco, Ceccato, Alup, Ingersoll Rand, Aerzen, Remeza and other compressors require consumables and replacement parts. The main consumables for screw air compressors include intake air filters, oil filters, oil separators, sleeve bearings , compressor oil.
For belt driven compressors, drive belts can be added to this list. Among the most frequently requiring replacement of spare parts are hoses, wear parts of valves (thermostat, check valve), pressure and temperature sensors, pressure switches. Sometimes it may be necessary to eliminate oil leakage from under the shaft of the screw pair, for which all manufacturers offer repair kits for their screw pairs.
Compressed air inline filters are not part of the compressor. This is a separate, additional equipment designed to clean the compressed air that has already left the air compressor from oil particles, solid particles and liquid moisture. The main filters "cut" into the compressed air pipeline - the "main".
The main filter consists of a body (usually aluminum or steel, sometimes stainless steel), a filter element and additional components - a condensate drain, a differential pressure gauge, mounting brackets, etc. etc. The filter element is replaceable and, as a rule, cannot be regenerated - accordingly, it must be replaced periodically. High quality replacement cartridges are available for inline compressed air filters Atlas Copco, Alup, etc.
