Maintaining your dental compressor is important to ensure its longevity and optimal performance. Here are some general tips for maintaining your compressor:
1. Regular cleaning: Clean the compressor regularly to remove any dust, dirt, or debris that may have accumulated on the surface. Parts which are warming up during use needs to be clean as well as any fan and cooler. Dust acts as isolation preventing effective cooling and overheating is causing more rapid wear of compressor or its components (shortening the lifespan).
2. Regular filter changes: Replace the air filters regularly to ensure unlimited airflow. In EKOM compressors the exchange of intake filter is recommended every 24months, filters before dryers every 12 months.
Check the manufacturer’s instructions for the recommended filter change interval.
3. Regular inspections: Inspect the compressor regularly for any signs of wear and tear, such as cracks, leaks, or loose connections. Address any issues to trained technician immediately to avoid further damage. Let service man examine your EKOM compressor every year and the compressor will pay you back in trouble free operation.
4. Proper ventilation: Ensure that the compressor is installed in a well-ventilated area to prevent overheating and ensure proper airflow. Never close compressors to furniture or cabinets which were not designed for them. Only EKOM own noise reduction cabinets are ensuring optimal cooling efficiency while maintaining low compressor noise.
5. Regular maintenance: Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for regular maintenance, such as condensate removal, filter replacement, and inspection.
Check the manufacturer’s instructions for recommended intervals.
