How To Storage Air Compressor Waiting To Be Installed.

By Prasanna Sutrave

Any Air Compressor,which is not in service,whether it is Installed or not,the unpainted Compressor surface are subjected to Rust and Corrosion.

Actualy Air Compressor is not a machine to keep in store but due to some reasons it requires to be storage for some time.

If this occures to you,you have to take care of that Air Compressor upto Commissioning.However every Compressor going out of factory is always processed with Rust Preventive Oil.This Rust Preventive Oil will work better upto one months.What after that period?

The Rate of Corrosion varies with Climatic Conditions.Variance in Climatic Condition makes it impossible to state the lenght of time,any Air Compressor
can be stored without Rust and Corrosion damage.

Basic Method of preparing the Air Compressor for long period.

01)Clean Crankcase from inside with help of cloth.

02)Fill H.P.Rustop-286 or any other Anti-Corrosive Oil in Crankcase and rotate Compressor BeltWheel for several times.This will ensure the circulation of Anti-Corrosive Oil to all moving parts,Cross-Slide and Guide.

03)Clean Low Pressure and High Pressure Cylinders and spray sufficient quantity of H.P.Rustop-286 and rotate Air Compressor several revolutions.

04)Place SillicaGel bags in Valve Ports and Refit Valve Covers if the Air Compressor is Non-Lubricated type.

05)Drain Water from Cylinder Jackets,Inter-Cooler and After-Cooler and thoroughly flush with clean water with H.P.Radiator Cleaner.Refilled the system with 10:1 mixture of Water and H.P.Radiator Cleaner and keep it for 4 to 5 days.Remove it after the said period.In cold condition,where Water Freezing may occure,in that case drain the mixture immediately.

06)Drain H.P.Rustop-286 or any other Anti-Corrosive Oil from Frame and Force Feed Lubricator.

07)If V-Belts are fitted,remove these completely.

08)Apply sufficient quantity of Preservitive Grease on Piston Rod.

09)Plug and seal all openings thoroughly so as the Moist-Air and Dirt do not enter inside.

10)Store Air Compressor in Dry place under shade.

If you are realy interested to store your Air Compressor very safely for long period,follow all the above guidelines.
