Compressor condensate is not just water.

⚠️ Oil-lubricated compressors produce condensate carrying lubricant, and discharging it to a surface water drain is an environmental offence. Separation is a legal requirement, not a housekeeping preference.

Control Gear specifies and services oil water separators across South Wales and the West, so condensate leaves site correctly.

Separate it properly. Stay compliant.

System pressure is often set once and never questioned again.

📉 Every additional bar of pressure adds roughly 7 percent to compressor energy use, and higher pressure also increases the volume lost through every existing leak.

Control Gear measures actual demand at the point of use before recommending a set point, across South Wales and the West.

Set it to demand. Not to habit.

Most sites are paying to compress air that never reaches a machine.

🔍 Industry surveys put leakage at 20 to 30 percent of total output on systems that have never been surveyed. The loss runs continuously, including overnight and at weekends when nothing is in production.

Control Gear runs ultrasonic leak surveys across South Wales and the West, tagging losses by location and cost.

Find the leaks. Stop paying twice.

Summer shutdowns are the easiest window to lose compressed air capacity, if nobody plans for it.

☀️ Higher ambient temperatures also increase the load on a compressor that is already working through a planned maintenance period.

Control Gear plans summer service and shutdown cover across South Wales and the West, so production restarts without delay.

Plan the shutdown. Restart on time.

18/08/2026

A part that fits is not always a part that is genuine.

🛡️ Non-genuine components can void the manufacturer warranty and raise the risk of a repeat fault soon after fitting.

Control Gear fits genuine parts on every job across South Wales and the West, with service records kept in full.

Genuine parts. Warranty protected.

11/08/2026

Some sites cannot risk oil anywhere near the process.

🌬️ Food, pharmaceutical and electronics manufacturing often require certified oil-free air, where even a trace of contamination can mean a failed audit.

Control Gear supplies and maintains oil-free compressor systems across South Wales and the West for sites with zero-tolerance requirements.

Zero oil. Process protected.

04/08/2026

A service that only happens when something goes wrong is not a maintenance plan.

⚙️ Planned servicing catches wear before it becomes failure, and keeps energy use from creeping up unnoticed.

Control Gear provides scheduled servicing packages across South Wales and the West, with genuine parts and full records on every visit.

Plan the service. Avoid the failure.

28/07/2026

A compressor fault rarely stays in the plant room.

⚙️ Low pressure stops tools, holds up production and turns a small mechanical fault into a wider site problem.

Control Gear provides 24-hour emergency response across South Wales and the West, with engineers who understand the system around the compressor.

Restore pressure. Keep production moving.

21/07/2026

Breathing air has to be proven, not assumed.

🫁 When compressed air is used by workers, BS EN 12021 testing checks oxygen, carbon monoxide, water vapour, oil and particulate levels.

Control Gear tests and maintains breathing air systems so site teams know the air is safe before people rely on it.

Test the air. Protect the people.
