Compressed Air Equipment Installation Services
Your system will operate efficiently and reliably from day one to minimize the risk of future issues. During the installation process, our team performs comprehensive testing, calibration and verification of system performance.
Inspection of Equipment
All components, such as compressors, dryers, and filtration systems, are properly installed and aligned according to the manufacturer’s specifications.
System Integration Checks
All system components, including air receivers, piping, and control systems, are integrated and connected correctly.
Pressure and Flow Testing
Tests ensure the system is operating at the correct pressure and air flow rates as specified.
Control System Configuration
We check that the control systems, including PLCs and sensors, are functioning properly and configured to the system’s specifications.
Leak and Safety Checks
We inspect for any air leaks and check that safety systems, such as pressure relief valves, are working correctly.
Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT)
Testing at our facility verifies that your new equipment meets design specifications and operates as intended before it is shipped or installed.
Commissioning Key Tests and Checks
Our commissioning process includes several tests and checks to verify that your system meets performance expectations, complies with air quality safety standards, complies with relevant standards and certifications, and is operating at peak efficiency.
System Start-Up and Initial Run
- Initial Start-Up: We ensure that the compressor and associated components are correctly started up for the first time, with attention to any special startup procedures required by the manufacturer.
- System Integration: We verify that all components, including compressors, dryers, filters, and other accessories, are properly integrated into the system and functioning together.
Performance Testing
- Air Flow and Pressure Test: We measure the air flow rate (CFM or SCFM) and operating pressure to ensure that the system is producing the required air volume and pressure at the desired levels.
- Load Testing: The system is tested under various load conditions (e.g., peak demand) to ensure it performs optimally during actual operational conditions.
- Leak Detection: We check the system for any air leaks in the piping, valves, and fittings that could reduce efficiency and lead to increased operating costs.
Energy Consumption Check
- Energy Efficiency Verification: We measure the system's energy consumption and verify that it aligns with manufacturer specifications for efficiency and meets customer expectations for energy usage.
Air Quality Testing
- Pressure Dew Point Testing: For systems with air dryers, we measure the dew point to ensure that the air is being properly dried and meets the required ISO 8573 air quality standards.
- Filtration and Oil-Free Air Check: For oil-free systems or critical applications, we verify the absence of oil or contaminants in the air output, ensuring air quality meets required standards (e.g., NFPA 1989 or ISO 8573).
Safety and Control Systems Verification
- Safety Shutdown Systems: We test safety shutdown systems, including pressure relief valves, safety switches, and emergency stop buttons, to ensure they are properly configured and functional.
- Control Panel Configuration: The control panel is verified to ensure all settings, alarms, and fault indicators are configured correctly, and the system is ready for remote monitoring if applicable.
Documentation and Reporting
- System Documentation: We compile a comprehensive commissioning report detailing the tests performed, results, and any corrective actions taken. This document serves as a record for both the customer and manufacturer.
- Final System Check: We conduct a final review of the entire system to ensure that it is operating per design specifications and that all customer requirements are met.
Customer Training
- On-Site Training: We provide on-site training for our customer’s team, ensuring they understand how to operate, monitor, and maintain the new system.
- Safety Protocols: We cover essential safety practices for operating and maintaining compressed air systems, including proper use of safety valves, pressure relief systems, and personal protective equipment (PPE).
- Preventive Measures: Staff are trained to identify warning signs of wear or potential failures before they become major issues, helping to reduce unplanned downtime and repair costs.
