OVERHAUL AND REPAIR
As a blower & compressor manufacturer, our factory specialists are trained in various blower technologies. Our repair process starts with a detailed disassembly and inspection. Beyond a repair, our application engineers work to find out the cause of failure and provide solutions to avoid future downtime.
All repaired or replaced products leave our factory with a same-as-new warranty and are fully run tested to maximum power and pressure to ensure maximum reliability.
Common reasons equipment is overhauled:
- Process/Product buildup internally
- Surge/Bearing failure
- Locked Rotor
- High Vibration
- Flooded by Water
- Improper Maintenance

We can re-rate performance of your blower by changing, adding or removing impellers, gear ratios, impeller cuts, or adapting a new control system for your existing blower.
PERFORMANCE CHANGE (RE-RATE)
Re-rates are changing the performance of the equipment.
Majority of re-rates keep the same dimensions.
Increasing-Pressure
Re-rates (also known as Performance Change or Change Performance) are changing the performance of the equipment. Majority of re-rates keep the same dimensions.
80% are not sized properly.
Re-rates are changing the performance of the equipment. Majority of re-rates keep the same dimensions.
Common reasons units are re-rated:
- Increase or Decrease Flow
- Increase pressure rise
- Increase turndown capability
- Increase energy efficiency
Geared Turbo are re-rated:
- Change Gear Set
- Cut Down Impeller
- Add VFD and Controls
Multistage Turbo are re-rated:
- Change Impeller Mix
- Add or Delete Stages
- Change Control to VFD
