Compressor Repair Services

Compressor repair services repair and rebuild used compressors and systems such as air compressors, gas compressors, and refrigeration and air conditioning compressors. They differ in terms of areas of specialization. Air compressor repair services specialize in the repair of air compressors, mechanical devices that receive air at atmospheric pressure and deliver air at higher pressures. Gas compressor repair services specialize in the rebuild and repair of gas compressors, machines that increase the pressure of a gas by reducing its volume. Refrigeration compressor repair services can repair special compressors that are used for heat pumping and refrigeration. Typically, these refrigeration compressors or refrigerant compressors are large mechanical devices which transform low-pressure gases into high-pressure and high-temperature gases. Compressor repair services that specialize in the repair of compressors for air conditioning systems, or that repair many different types of compressors, are also available.

Compressor repair services may perform sonic leak detection surveys, efficiency audits, overhauls and rebuilds, or total remanufactures. They may also provide warranty service, predictive maintenance, and preventative maintenance. Compressor repair services that offer system improvements or upgrades are also available. Sonic leak detection surveys use non-invasive sonic amplification equipment to filter out sounds except for those associated with leaks. Efficiency audits are performed on a periodic basis to review the performance of air compressors, gas compressors, refrigeration compressors, and air conditioning compressors. Product overhauls involve rebuilds as well as adjustments and repairs. Compressor repair services that offer total remanufactures break down equipment and test of all the constituent parts. Work done under warranty service may be subject to the customer’s warranty agreement with the original equipment manufacturer (OEM). Compressor repair services that offer predictive maintenance and preventive maintenance can increase cost savings and eliminate downtime.

Compressor repair services are located across North America and around the world. They meet a variety of regulatory standards and quality requirements. ISO 9001:2000 and ISO 17025 are specifications from the International Standards Organization (ISO). AS 9000 is a set of quality guidelines published by the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE). QS 9000 is a specific quality standard for suppliers of DaimlerChrysler Corporation, Ford Motor Company, and General Motors Corporation. QS 9000 is based on the 1994 edition of ISO 9001, but contains additional requirements that are particular to the automotive industry. ISO/TS 16949:2002 supercedes QS 9000 and includes the process approach from ISO 9001:2000. Compressor repair services that perform work for the U.S. military meet military specifications (MIL-SPEC) or military standards (MIL-STD).
