Abstract: Since the first installation of unattended compressor equipment in the late 1950s, there has been a dramatic change in the technology needed for efficient maintenance. The typical compressor engine has changed greatly with the development of the highspeed, high-compression engine and the adoption of the gas turbine. The high-speed engine required some additional maintenance procedures, while continuing those for the slow- and medium-speed types. The gas turbine presented a completely new area of technology, beginning with nomenclature. Also, changes have occurred in control modes, from pneumatic, to electro-mechanical to radio-controlled electro-mechanical to digital-electronic radio-controlled electro-mechanical configurations.
