How often should air compressors be inspected?
The recurrent inspection of compressors is based on the risk assessment for air compressors. As a rule, the inspection takes place every 4 years. Do air compressors need to be inspected? The air compressor and driving motor do not need an inspection - but should be regularly serviced and maintained by the user. Some air compressors only have two components - a driving motor and an air compressor. The delivery of compressed air is immediate and the need to store air in a pressure vessel is not required.
