Compressor Maintenance Plans That Prevent Downtime in the Mid-South
If your operation depends on compressed air, you already know: unexpected breakdowns cost more than repairs. Whether you’re packaging food in Jackson, fabricating metal in Springdale, or running a distribution center in Memphis, your air system needs to run reliably—day in, day out.
That’s why Process & Power offers custom preventative maintenance (PM) plans tailored to industrial facilities across Tennessee, Arkansas, and Mississippi. Our goal is simple: minimize downtime, extend equipment life, and protect your bottom line.
The True Cost of Unplanned Downtime
A single unplanned shutdown can cost thousands in:
Lost production time
Overtime pay to make up delays
Rush part shipments and labor fees
Spoiled product or missed delivery windows
Damaged customer relationships
Preventative maintenance helps avoid all of it—while keeping your system running more efficiently year-round.
What’s Included in a Process & Power PM Plan?
Our service agreements are flexible and scalable, covering everything from basic quarterly checks to full-service monthly inspections. A typical plan may include:
✅ Routine Inspections
Check belts, couplings, filters, valves, and electrical components
Inspect for leaks, vibration, unusual noise, or pressure fluctuation
✅ Oil and Filter Changes
Compressor oil, separator elements, and air/oil filters changed on schedule
Proper disposal and documentation for environmental compliance
✅ Dryer and Drain Maintenance
Clean/replace dryer filters
Inspect and test auto drains, dew point sensors, and heat exchangers
✅ System Checks and Adjustments
Verify controller settings and alarms
Check for pressure drop, temperature spikes, or run-time imbalances
Review VSD operation and control sequencing (if applicable)
✅ Full Documentation and Reporting
Maintenance logs for each visit
Upcoming service reminders
Notes on potential future failures or upgrade recommendations

Who Benefits Most from a PM Plan?
Preventative maintenance is a smart investment for:
Food and beverage producers – avoid product contamination and temperature swings
Medical and pharma facilities – maintain NFPA 99 and ISO compliance
Automotive and metal shops – ensure stable air pressure and tool longevity
Warehousing and distribution centers – keep packaging and sorting lines running
Fabrication and CNC operations – reduce costly scrap and tool failure
If downtime isn’t an option, a PM plan is your best defense.
How Often Should Your System Be Serviced?
Here’s a general rule of thumb for rotary screw compressors:
Quarterly service for compressors under 50 HP with light to moderate use
Bi-monthly or monthly for 24/7 operations or systems over 100 HP
Dryer maintenance every 6–12 months, depending on humidity and run time
Annual full inspection including motor bearings, belts, and cooling systems
We tailor the plan based on your usage, environment, and criticality.

Discounted labor rates – Save on non-emergency visits and part installations
Early problem detection – Address small issues before they cause big failures
