Green Point UK has launched a new training initiative to help contractors and service technicians gain confidence in diagnosing and maintaining BITZER compressors.
The sessions, from BITZER UK's remanufacturing and specialist service arm, are designed to give engineers the opportunity to get up close with screw and reciprocating compressors, see how they work and understand what can realistically be repaired in the field.
The practical training at Green Point's facility in Milton Keynes is tailored to the day-to-day challenges engineers face when maintaining systems for applications including supermarkets, cold storage facilities, data centres and marine vessels.
“Our aim is to demystify the compressor and give engineers the skills and confidence to make repairs on site, where possible,” said Will Pribyl, General Manager at Green Point UK. “In many cases, we’re showing engineers how to fix minor issues, like replacing a degraded gasket, that could otherwise lead to full compressor replacements. Repair is better for the environment, better for budgets and ultimately helps reduce downtime.”
The initiative has been piloted with a handful of customers, including a recent visit from Ernest West & Beynon. Technical Director Andrei Stefancu said: “By equipping our team with up-to-date skills in servicing BITZER compressors, we uphold the highest standards of quality. This visit provided invaluable hands-on experience with the complete servicing of both screw and piston compressor technologies.”
