The airend is the most expensive component of a screw compressor, so catching failure early saves money and downtime.
Early Warning Signs
Rising discharge temperature, unusual noise, reduced flow, metal in the oil and slow pressure build-up all point to airend wear.
Common Causes
Poor lubrication, contaminated oil, blocked cooling and operation beyond rated limits accelerate rotor and bearing wear.
Prevention
Follow oil and filter intervals, monitor temperature trends and perform oil analysis to catch wear before failure.
