The Beast Breathes Again! š¦
Earlier this year, CEA kicked off a major overhaul on a 500HP FS-Elliott centrifugal compressor, and what a project itās been!Ā Hereās how it all came together:
Ā
š ļøCoolers were removed and replaced with new units.
ā
š§½The main housing got the full treatment, sandblasting and paint.
ā
šAir ends were removed, inspected, and shipped to FS-Elliott for expert refurbishment and precision balancing.
ā
šThe old coolers are now in our shop, being repaired and prepped for future use.
Recognizing the importance of reliability, the client has now engaged CEA for preventative maintenance every six months to avoid unexpected shutdowns and extend the compressorās life.
Al Kovacs, with 50+ years of hands-on experience, had the honour of firing up this beast and bringing it back to life; a true full-circle moment :)
