We have an aluminum gantry that we may set up over the compressor package to remove the compressor from the base. If the gantry does not fit over the compressor because of piping or some other obstruction, then another means of removing it will be found. This may result in added cost, the customer having to help provide other means of removing the compressor (forklift, rigging, etc.), or both.

Once the compressor is evacuated and the gantry is set up, we will uncouple the compressor from the motor, remove all necessary oil lines and electrical connections, unbolt suction and discharge flanges (the customer may have to help provide means of supporting the suction and/or discharge lines if needed), unbolt the compressor and remove it from the base.

The customer will need to provide an adequate space and workbench for us to rebuild the compressor. An isle or space in the compressor room and a stack of pallets with enough room to set the gantry up over the compressor would suffice.

We disassemble the compressor; clean and visually inspect all parts; and, with a micrometer, measure critical surfaces that appear worn.

We then reassemble the compressor with the new parts that are included in the rebuild and set up the outlet end clearance and any other tolerances that need to be set up on your particular model of compressor.

Once the compressor is assembled we install it back on the base, align it to the motor with a laser alignment tool, bolt it to the base, bolt the suction and discharge flanges to the compressor, and hook up all oil lines and electrical connections.

The customer is then responsible for opening all valves, going through their normal start up procedure and putting the compressor back online.
