There is no one answer, as it all depends on the type of oil you use and how your machinery is running. Most recommendations will be based on running hours and time. If in doubt, ask for advice from our engineers, or book a regular service slot and we can look after the oil change for you. Find out more on the best oil to use in your air compressor.

A compressor runs cooler and uses less energy when air filters are clean. Dirty, clogged filters can lead to pressure drops, which causes the compressor to run at higher levels to accommodate the demand. Filter performance can also be affected by additional moisture, so it’s important to follow regular maintenance schedules and add supplementary checks for seasonal changes.

By design, piston compressors are louder than rotary screw compressors. Atlas Copco compressors are known for their low noise levels and minimal disruption to the production floor. For example, VSDS compressors can run as low as 63 dB. This is below the 80 dBA level where employers are required to take action on machine noise. Our customers often feedback on how quiet the compressors are and how they can easily hold a conversation next to them.

When choosing the right compressor, it helps to understand PSI and CFM, and how they’re used to specify the air compressors performance. Have a look at our guide to give you an overview. A free energy audit can help you establish what size compressor you need. From this we gain an accurate account of your plant’s compressed air demand, and can then recommend the best air compressor for your site.
