The Challenge
The dealership's service bays relied on a multi-compressor system including a BOGE C15 rotary screw and a C-Aire 10 HP piston unit with a Keltec refrigerated dryer. The system needed reliable, clean compressed air for pneumatic tools, tire inflation, and paint booth operations with minimal downtime during business hours. A small leak was discovered at the rotor end cap of the BOGE unit during inspection.
The Solution
Performed semi-annual preventative maintenance across all three units. Repaired the small leak from the BOGE C15 rotor end cap. Changed air filters, oil filters, inline filters, separator filter, and dryer filters. Replaced belts and the scavenger line with orifice. Cleaned and re-lubed the inlet valve and minimum pressure valve. Blew out the cooler, dryer condenser, and all units. Tightened electrical connections in the starter box. Replaced the float drain and inspected all electrical components. Discussed daily inspection procedures with the in-house maintenance department.
