You’ll play a vital role in delivering responsive, high-impact service that supports customers’ operational needs. Your work won’t stop in the field. You’ll also install controls and wiring for PD blower systems at our facility, applying your electromechanical expertise across the full equipment lifecycle. If you already bring PD blower experience, you’ll hit the ground running. If not, you bring a strong foundation in rotating equipment, motor and electrical troubleshooting, alignment, system-level diagnostics, and reading schematics and P&IDs—and the drive to master the rest.

• Perform control panel wiring and field terminations(24 VDC control, 120/480 VAC power, grounding/bonding, signal wiring, shielded cable practices); read and interpret electrical schematics, wiring diagrams, and P&IDs.
• Install and integrate instrumentation(pressure, temperature, vibration, flow, differential pressure transmitters, proximity sensors, limit switches) and calibrate as required.
• Execute mechanical service tasks(coupling alignment—laser or dial, belt tensioning, blower timing, bearing replacement, seal changes, lubrication, fastener torque verification).
• Conduct vibration and performance checks; identify root cause of abnormal noise, heat, vibration, or amperage draw (airflow restrictions, leaks, misalignment, cavitation, resonance).
• Troubleshoot system issues end-to-endacross electrical, mechanical, and controls, including motor diagnostics (insulation resistance, megger testing, continuity), VFD/motor matching, and load-related faults.
• Perform field measurements and documentation(voltage/current, phase balance, harmonics, airflow/pressure, vibration readings) and produce detailed service reports with parts lists and recommended follow-up.
