Question 1

What size air compressor does my factory need?

Accepted Answer

The right size depends on your total air demand (in m³/min or CFM), your required pressure (bar), and how many machines run at once. Tell us your equipment and usage, or use our compressor finder, and our engineers will recommend the correct power and flow — over-sizing wastes electricity, while under-sizing starves your line.

Question 2

Oil-free or oil-injected — which should I choose?

Accepted Answer

Oil-injected compressors are reliable and cost-effective for most industrial uses. Oil-free (Class 0) compressors deliver 100% oil-free air and are essential where any oil contamination is unacceptable — medical, pharmaceutical, food, and electronics. If air purity is critical to your product, choose oil-free; otherwise oil-injected is usually the better value.

Question 3

What is a VSD (variable-speed) compressor, and is it worth it?

Accepted Answer

A VSD compressor adjusts its motor speed to match your actual air demand instead of running flat-out and unloading. For plants with variable demand this can cut electricity use by up to 35%, often paying back the difference within a couple of years.

Question 4

Do you supply spare parts for other brands?

Accepted Answer

Yes. As the authorized KELTEC agent we supply filters, separators and oil, and we cross-reference your existing or competitor part number to the correct equivalent. Send us the part number (or use the part finder) and we'll match it.

Question 5

Do you offer maintenance contracts?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We offer annual preventive-maintenance contracts and one-off service visits, including genuine spare parts and overhauls. A planned maintenance schedule keeps your line running and avoids costly unplanned downtime.

Question 6

Can I rent a compressor instead of buying?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We rent compressors short- and long-term to cover peak demand, maintenance shutdowns, events, or emergency cover while your unit is repaired. Pick a unit on the rental page and send us your dates — rates are quoted on request.

Question 7

Do you deliver and install outside Cairo or outside Egypt?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We deliver and commission across Egypt and supply customers throughout the region — Libya, Sudan, the Gulf, the Levant and across Africa. Tell us your location and we'll arrange delivery and start-up.

Question 8

Do you sell used compressors, and are they reliable?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We stock carefully selected premium used compressors, verified to have run under the official agent's maintenance contracts in Europe. Each unit is checked and prepared for hard duty before sale, giving you premium-brand reliability at a better price.

Question 9

How quickly can you respond to a breakdown?

Accepted Answer

We provide 24/7 emergency support and keep a large stock of compressors, dryers and spare parts on hand for fast response. Maintenance-contract customers get priority. Call us and we'll get your line back up as quickly as possible.
