Evaluating the Reciprocating Compressor Components Failure and Downtime
Abstract: The investigation on the evaluation of reciprocating compressor component failures using the reliability approach was examined for a period of five (5) years. The components monitored were valves, seal, pistons, bearing, O-rings, and cylinders and the numbers of failure per year were obtained as 10, 8, 2, ,7, 9 and 4 for the first year, 6 6, 2, 5, 7 and 2 for the second year, 7, 6, 2, 3, …

Computation of Compressor Components Failure and Maintenance Characteristics
Abstract: The computation of the compressor components failure and maintenance characteristics as related to the major parts are described in this research. The research projected the root cause of the compressor components failure as well as projected the necessary measure to reduce such occurrence in the gas compressor operation. The parameters of the Mean time between failure, failure rate, downtime maintenance, reliability, unreliability, and availability were commutated respect to the number …
