This speaks in favor of repairing the existing devices.

Repairing equipment makes sense for reasons beyond just sustainability. In many cases, the principle "never change a running system" applies. If a currently faulty lubricator has kept a system running for decades, it is logical to first inspect the unit for its operational status and signs of wear.

Lubrication is a key factor in ensuring the "smooth" operation of a compressor; the lubricator therefore plays a fundamental role within the entire production plant. Repairing or restoring it requires no modifications or adjustments to the overall system—unlike the integration of a new component. In some cases, an exchange is not easily possible anyway.

Another reason to opt for the repair of a lubricator relates to its drive mechanism. Some of the existing systems use a direct drive, as not all of them have their own power supply.

In most cases, repairing the lubricator is more cost-effective—not least because of the additional expenses that would arise from the modifications required if a new unit were purchased instead.

Roesen combines decades of experience, in-house manufacturing, repair and Reverse Engineering. Every repaired oil lubrication pump is tested according to defined quality and testing guidelines before it leaves our facility.
