Screw Compressors

Screw compressors are used to move compressed gaseous fluids for purposes such as air supply or refrigeration. In the event of failure, operations are halted as there is no longer a source of high-pressure fluid being pumped. In this instance, the discovered fault was thrust bearing wear.

Our team’s recommended action was to replace thrust bearing before the screws could cause damage to compressor, resulting in significant downtime and repair costs.
