Maintenance is basically subdivided into:
- Inspection
- Servicing
- Repair
Maintenance must be performed every 1500 operating hours or at least once a year:
-
Changing oil
-
Replacing the coalescing filter
-
Compressor visual check to track any potential issue (leakages, shocks…)
-
Replacing the vehicle air filter, according manufacturer requirements
Operating hours are defined as when the compressor is running.
To estimate the operating hours, use the following calculation:
-
Vehicle mileage (d)
-
Vehicle average speed (v)
-
Bus operating time (t) = d/v
-
Estimated duty cycle (tc)
-
Compressor operation hours (coh) = t x tc
