Air
Compressor Parts, Oil and Filters
All
compressors require periodic maintenance and sooner or later every
compressor will need to be repaired.
We carry a local stock of parts and kits for many
popular brands and can get any part you might need to repair your
compressor. We draw on a huge source of suppliers and from many
different sources to get our customers the parts they need. We service
all major brands of compressors and can get you the parts you need to
get back up and running quickly, or keep your compressor from going
down in the first place.
Because there are so many different
compressor brands that we repair, service and sell parts for, we
decided not to implement an on-line shopping cart system. Sure,
shopping on-line is convenient and easy but waiting a week to get the
wrong parts can be an incredibly frustrating experience for everyone.
We have known for a long time that getting the customer the correct
parts requires a certain amount of interaction with our customers. So
if you need parts for your compressor or other system component please
give us a call.
Changing
oil in your air compressor is not the same as changing oil in your car! Synthetic
compressor oils are ultra refined and expected
to do a superior job over a long period of time.
Mixing various
formulations can cause you a lot of trouble. This is because as
the oils mix, the chemical compounds interact and coagulate. This
forms a slime that will clog control lines and cause your machine,
usually, to overheat and shutdown in a self-protection mode.
While this usually causes no permanent damage, it creates a mess that is
time-consuming and expensive to clean not to mention
the cost of the replacement oil! The moral here is that if you
really want to upgrade your oil, realize that the procedure to do so,
while expensive, is very necessary. If you purchase a used machine
and are unsure of the composition of the oil, take
heart. Nebraska Pneumatics can analyze your oil
and determine not only the exact composition but also the current state
(health) of the oil and whether or not the there are metals in the oil
(this determines the state of the rotating metal part such as bearings).
The cost for this service is reasonable so there really is no
reason not to do it on a quarterly basis. We recommend
you perform this along with quarterly maintenance.
We also
currently offer a lubricant product line that includes oil analysis as a service
provided by the lubricant manufacturer at no extra cost with the purchase of their
products. Call Nebraska Pneumatics to discuss this
important aspect of air compressor maintenance and save a a lot of money
in the
process!
Not
all filters are created equal! This is true. If you
are offered the choice of regular and premium filters,
you can be assured that there is a difference. The differences have to
do with construction. So what? Well,
the better filters will have more surface area to trap whatever the
filter is designed to trap for starters. In addition, the better
filters will cause a lower pressure drop across them.
This results in higher efficiency and more air at the business end.
Last, there is less oil carryover. Oil carryover is expensive when
you consider the price of synthetic compressor oil, which can range
typically between $50-100 per gallon. Once again, use the best
filters you can and change them at regular intervals. It
will pay dividends down the road. If you need to
know if your compressor has premium filters available
for it, contact
Nebraska Pneumatics.
