Doosan Portable Power Hits Milestone of 500 Remanufactured Air Compressors

Doosan Portable Power recently restored the 500th air compressor as part of its Certified Remanufacturing Program.

Doosan Portable Power recently restored the 500^th air compressor as part of its Certified Remanufacturing Program. An aging HP750WCU-T1 air compressor was restored to like-new condition and will include a new warranty.

Since the program’s introduction in 2012, nearly 100 air compressors have been remanufactured each year in the company’s Statesville, N.C., facility.

Initially available for air compressors originally manufactured by Doosan or Ingersoll Rand rated 750 cfm or higher, the program was expanded in 2018 to include lower cfm air compressor models – HP375, XP 375, P425 as well as Doosan G450 and G570 mobile generator models.

“The continued demand and expansion of the Certified Remanufacturing Program after 500 restorations shows that the demand for this type of program continues to fill a need for our dealers and customers,” said Hugh McCluskey, service director, Doosan Portable Power.

The Doosan Certified Remanufacturing Program works two ways. Customers can purchase an air compressor or generator from the Doosan inventory of remanufactured machines, or customers can retain ownership of their original machine throughout the remanufacturing process. Each remanufactured machine is disassembled down to the frame before the rebuilding process begins. Each unit receives a remanufactured engine of the same tier classification as originally equipped, as well as a factory-reconditioned air-end for air compressors and alternator for generators. Some remanufacturing machines can be retrofitted with factory-installed options during the remanufacturing process.

The base frame and separator tank receives a total makeover, including paint stripping and recoating, all with strict adherence to the same stringent process used for new Doosan machines. External and internal components are replaced, including all sheet metal, wheels, tires, lights, coolers, sensors, hoses and piping, and a new wiring harness is installed. All Doosan remanufactured air compressors and generators are factory tested to ensure proper operation before shipment. Each machine is delivered with a complete set of manuals and is registered in the Doosan Portable Power system with a same-as-new machine warranty.
