Title: Air Compressor
Description: Where to get it serviced?


Alpha7 - March 18, 2006 09:23 AM (GMT)
Anyone knows where I can get my air compressor serviced. Mine is the silent type, which I believe is oil filled. It's quite old (passed down from my father-in-law), but works well.

Recently it started making a bit of a whirling sound if left on for more than 10 minutes. It's either the oil needs changing or something is seriously wrong with it. Anyone knows where to get the compressor oil or anyone who can service a compressor?

Hmm... angin sejuk or panas? Rasanya angin yang keluar dari compressor tu semuanya pada suhu bilik. Tak taulah pulak kalau ada compressor yang keluarkan angin panas.

okeh...sila beri tunjuk ajar......


macam kata silantra...dia kate compressor yang aku post & tanye tu boleh digunakan utk modeling..


cam mane nak setkan tekanan untuk cat pada model tu?

apa bahaye dia kalo takde fungsi auto stop pada compressor tu?

apa yang patut aku elakkan masa aku menggunakan compressor tu?

cam mane nak jaga compressor tu supaya dapat digunakan untuk jangka masa panjang?

aku masih rase takut2 nak pakai compressor ni sebab takut cepat rosak memandangkan aku langsung tak tau apa2 pasal compressor ni...

mekasih..

Senang aja pasal kompresor ni..kalau nak pakai lama cari aja yg AUTOMATIK..mmg mahal dibandingkan ngan yg MANUAL tapi jangka masa panjang berbaloi..x yah risau overheat atau sebagainya..dan x ada moist..rasa kat Hobby HQ ada 1 kut..localnya la..dalam RM1000++..tanya Mr Loo. (HHQ 03-2162 2976)

Kalau nak bestnya kena la beli SILAIR nya..itu dalam RM2000.00 satu..kalau bargain baik dapat diskaun dlm RM50.00..x pun ayat baik kat tukang jual dapat la goodies dibaginya nnti :D

" cam mane nak setkan tekanan untuk cat pada model tu? "
: tekanan senang aja dlm 15 psi atau sebagainya..standard. Tapi x tau la kan..lain org lain caranya..dan lain airbrush lain fungsi tekanannya.

"apa bahaye dia kalo takde fungsi auto stop pada compressor tu?"
: tak ada auto kalu boleh guna hanya 1/2 jam setiap kali pakai aja atau kompresor tu akan overheat ataupun mcm apek cakap..bomkebabom..tp x pernah jd la kut. Auto stop dia akan secara automatik hentikan perjalanan piston kompresor tu bila tangki udara penuh..jd secara logik kompresor x panas..dan x ada moist yg keluar.. :D

"apa yang patut aku elakkan masa aku menggunakan compressor tu?"
: elakkan makan nasi sewaktu pakai kompresor tu.. :D ..bab ni standard la..jgn kurungkan kompresor tu ditempat tersembunyi..nnti x dapat udara..lemas n panas..kalau AUTOMATIK nya kena pastikan minyak piston tu pada level yang betul..kalau kering motorsikal pun boleh jem kalau x ada minyak hitam..sama la ngan kompresor


"cam mane nak jaga compressor tu supaya dapat digunakan untuk jangka masa panjang?"
: kena jaga ngan baik..mahal oooo beli..sama gak ngan airbrush..kalau ada selimut..selimutkan..kalau ada plastik selubungkan..jgn bg habuk

"aku masih rase takut2 nak pakai compressor ni sebab takut cepat rosak memandangkan aku langsung tak tau apa2 pasal compressor ni..."
: aduiiii..org kawin pun x tau mcmana sebelum kawin..baca dan tanya pada mereka2 yang tau..x jadi masalahnya..lagipun mesti ada manual apa yang patut dibuat dan yang x patut dibuat..senang aja.


Jangan segan-segan nak tanya

;)

Memang la..kalau kita naik mercedes dia nya keselesaan x sama mcm naik kancil..tapi kalau nak china brand nya kat Venus Art ( 03-2078 1077 ) ada jual..tapi ketahanan dia x tau la..pernah pakai..ring piston dia patah..ataupun beli Revell Omega Compressor..dulu kat Jaya Jusco Lembah Tengah ( Mid Valley ) ada jual..ataupun tanya aja kat Hobby HQ..ari tu pergi ada 1 local made kompressor.

Alah membeli menang memakai

druid_99 - March 13, 2007 09:03 AM (GMT)
Phyzann, sekarang ni biar aku try terangkan pasal compressor ni. Kepada kengkawan semua, kalau ada maklumat yang tak betul dalam ni, tolong betulkan, ok? Sebab ini semua maklumat yang aku dapat dari pembacaan dan pengalaman.

Ok, sekarang ni ada beberapa jenis compressor. Satu yang guna diaphragm dan satu lagi guna piston. Lepas tu dari yang dua tu ada lak jenis yang terus keluar angin dan ada yang simpan angin dalam tangki.

Gambar yang kau tunjuk tu ialah compressor yang guna diaphragm and takde tangki. Compressor guna diaphragm macam ni senyap tapi selalunya ada had dia. Selalunya orang akan nasihat supaya tak guna lebih dari sejam, jadi, setiap kali lepas spray, kena biar compressor tu sejuk dulu untuk panjangkan jangka hayat dia. Compressor macam ni pun takde auto-stop, jadi, kalau tak guna, jangan biarkan compressor ni beroparasi... kena tutup dan kurangkan pressure dia.

Compressor lagi satu ialah yang menggunakan piston dan bertangki. Yang guna piston dan bertangki ni, kalau nak tengok contoh dia kau tengok kat kedai tayar yang mesin diaorang guna untuk isi angin tu.. haa itu contoh compressor berpiston dan bertangki... tapi yang tu saiz besar punya. Ada compressor macam tu yang kecik tetapi disebabkan menggunakan piston, bunyi dia agak bising tapi tak lama. Bila angin dah penuh dalam tangki dia, dia akan auto-stop dan gunakan angin dalam tangki tu jee.

Ada banyak lagi maklumat yang aku tak bagitau ni rasanya. Tapi aku rasa member2 lain akan bagi penjelasan yang lagi baik.

Silantra - March 13, 2007 09:11 AM (GMT)
hehehehe

btw compressed air yg keluar sume sejuk..sebab terkondensasi... :)

wampire - March 14, 2007 03:13 AM (GMT)
Hehe... not sure the brand & model, or the specs. Tengok camtu je. Kita ni newbie lagi... still using "very entry level set" (Tamiya compressor with airbrush).. murah punye. Tak sampai 2 minggu baru start "modeling"... Once skills upgraded over time, then maybe can consider high end. Just need to know what's good and what's not-so-good... :) Nanti will check out the brand and specs again later later sikit...

phyzann - March 14, 2007 03:21 AM (GMT)
oooo....macam tu....

ada membe aku kata....compressor ni ada keluarkan percikan air (tak banyak sangat...ala2 macam embun)...kalo nak elok kata nya....carik yang ada filter...

btul ke?

willphang - March 14, 2007 03:29 AM (GMT)
Betui adik Phyzan...ambik yang ade filter ;)

Blackheart - March 14, 2007 04:15 AM (GMT)
Yup..but most compressor ada filter..kecuali tamiya..I owned that small compressor at 1st stage..bunyi mcm engine motobot..lama kelamaan ada mcm oily thing timbul and the plastic piston will be slow and slower and slower..and finally STOP..I still got that compressor in my storage..for memory lane.. :D. Kalau x silap ada moist tu yang manual aja..yang auto x jd masalah.

druid_99 - March 15, 2007 09:07 AM (GMT)
Compressor tu ada tank, yang kat bawah yang besar tu tangki angin dia lah. Rasanya compressor ni ada auto off dan ada pressure regulator, so boleh kawal pressure angin yang keluar.

Argrillion - March 15, 2007 09:25 AM (GMT)
For this Puma compressor, you may not need a water filter, seeing that the tank is big enough to trap the water condensate. In my opinion, this compressor is quite complete. All it needs is an airbrush to make it a complete airbrush spray system.

Blackheart - March 15, 2007 09:33 AM (GMT)
If Im not mistaken kompresor PUMA tu industri nya kompresor..heavy duty..kompresor jenis ni mmg x ada filter dan bunyi dia bising skit..I x pernah guna kompresor jenis ni..kalau nak beli filter kat Venus Art ada jual.

i had the tamiya basic compressor. it was a good one for beginner, and i used it for 5 yrs plus , before it is finally beyond repair. the plastic parts are all worn out now...oh, it comes with an airbrush, and the airbrush is still in good condition.

that was why i requested WillPhang to help and get me a new set of air compressor.

kalau Phyzan nak, boleh jugak mintak tolong Will untuk dapatkan compressor.

wampire - March 15, 2007 12:44 PM (GMT)
Wow... you all so advanced... kita ni masih "raw" lagi. I'll probably let my entry-level Tamiya set "expire" like kwongyan's, then only upgrade :) Good to know that the brush is still in good order. BTW, where to find any replacement parts, if required? I got the set from Tamiya Underground, but tak notice any airbrush set parts (maybe was right in front of me but didn't notice hehe).

kwongyan - March 15, 2007 02:34 PM (GMT)

u need to take good care of the compressor , for it to last long. it doesn't have auto shutdown, so , make sure you do not overheat it. normally , after 30 to 45 minutes of using, i will let it coooooool down.



wampire - March 15, 2007 04:58 PM (GMT)
Bro, thanks for the tip. I noticed that after running it for a while, the thing starts to d-r-a-g (terhegeh-hegeh)... probably an indication that it's overheating. If not mistaken, the manual says it shouldn't be used for more than 1 hour straight. Buy haiya... 30-45 minutes... kind of potong-steam don't you think? :) How long do you normally leave it to cool off?

druid_99 - March 15, 2007 11:22 PM (GMT)
Wampire, I don't think you will be using it for more than 30 to 45 minutes for one model kit part. If you run through a few of the modelers build, you will notice that all will cover their model in mist coats and let it dry before another layer and the final layer. Rasanya cukup masa untuk compressor tu cool down.

Phyzann, macam Argrillion cakap, compressor dalam gambar tu tak semestinya perlukan water trap sebab tangki kat bawah tu pun dah boleh trap air. Tengok kat gambar last sekali tu, ada macam tombol kat bawah tangki dia. Kalau tak silap tangki tu untuk keluarkan air yang terperangkap dalam tangki tu.

Tapi tak salah kalau nak letak water trap kat compressor tu, tambah effektif.

phyzann - March 16, 2007 08:58 AM (GMT)
terima kasih atas nasihat semua.....
