Overhaul of Refrigeration Compressors<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

We renovate refrigeration compressors for industrial cooling systems with a focus on longevity, efficiency, and operational reliability. Through meticulous analysis, measurement, and corrective actions on worn components, we restore the compressor’s function and performance.

During renovation, we measure all critical components and address worn parts through repair or replacement. We also identify the need for preventive measures and upgrades to optimize operation over time.

The result is a refrigeration compressor that performs at a level comparable to a new unit, at a significantly lower cost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is included in a
standard renovation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

When you renovate your refrigeration compressor with us, you receive an inspection that goes significantly deeper than a standard service. We measure all critical components and address worn parts through repair or replacement.

In addition to this, we identify the need for preventive measures and upgrades that can improve both operation and service life.

The result is a refrigeration compressor with restored function and performance, often at a level comparable to a new unit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Arrival<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

We receive the customer’s refrigeration compressor and perform an initial arrival inspection and inform the customer that we have received it.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Sandblasting<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

To achieve the best final result, we do everything to give the refrigeration compressor visual new life. Through sandblasting, we remove everything before painting.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Electric Motor Control<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

If the refrigeration compressor contains an electric motor, we perform an advanced measurement of the motor’s components where we identify any faults to ensure safe operation in the upcoming operating cycle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A detailed report is sent together with the compressor report to the customer.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

05<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Disassembly<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

We disassemble the refrigeration compressor into all parts for thorough analysis and measurement of tolerances, which forms the basis for assessment of necessary measures. The technical analysis is compiled into a clear, detailed report that is sent to the customer together with an additional quote for the parts that need to be adjusted, machined or replaced. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Recond<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

We consider it our responsibility to renovate your refrigeration compressor in a clean environment, therefore each component undergoes thorough washing. We use environmentally friendly fluids that remove oils and greases. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Technical Report<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

We create detailed technical reports when we renovate your compressor. In the report, you receive information about which parts need to be repaired or replaced, how extensive the damage is and exactly what damage exists on each part. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Repair & Production of New Parts<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Parts that have normal or increased wear are machined to achieve a condition like an original part. Where there has been, for example, a breakdown and parts must be scrapped, we manufacture new parts that have original specifications. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Assembly<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Now the refrigeration compressor begins to look as it should as we have started assembly. Here we put together all parts, which are either machined or new from the manufacturer, with high precision and cleanliness. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Painting<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Each refrigeration compressor regains its original color or desired color. We mount all signs and also mark the refrigeration compressor that it has been with us with which year and month, so you know when you visit the facility in a few years when it was last with us. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Why You should Renovate your Refrigeration Compressor<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n
\n

Environment<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

A breakdown or unjustified new manufacturing of refrigeration compressor or components leads to significant environmental impact and higher energy consumption.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

Technology<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

A refrigeration compressor is designed to handle a certain operating time. For a screw compressor, renovation is recommended after 40,000 hours. This corresponds to 6-10 years of use depending on operating conditions. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

Economy<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The customer minimizes energy consumption over time with a healthy refrigeration compressor. Just a few percent in reduced efficiency costs more than the renovation of a refrigeration compressor. Renovation according to plan minimizes the risk of expensive repairs and longer downtime. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

Risk<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Taking risks and experiencing a breakdown can be an enormously expensive experience. Production loss during a short time can correspond to several years of operating costs. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
