Hello!
I bought an Elektra Beckum lp 325/10/40 oil compressor last year.
Old, German equipment from good times - year 1986. Today's EB is Metabo.

After two compressors from Juli and Castorama (Meec 750 and some other rice), which died immediately after the end of the warranty and are irreparable, I was instructed not to buy Chinese food, but better to buy an old compressor from the 80s, such a "gniotsa not a break", in which everything can be dismantled and repaired.
A friend said something about Polish VANs, but with a maximum budget of PLN 700, - I didn't even get scrap ... ;-)
A friend of painters persuaded me to choose Elektra Beckum. He said he used it for twenty years and it was always great. Apparently indestructible ...
So I bought one after a long market. Well, after a year of use, he began to spit oil. I did not notice any significant wear ...!
There is a lot of water in the baniak and there is oil in it too.
I also noticed that after loading the cylinder and disconnecting the pressure switch, the compressor seems to move back slightly and the pressure on the pressure gauge drops from 9 bar to 8 bar. Slow but coming down. After a long standstill, the pressure drops to 4 bar. still no ...
So far, it did not bother me, but now I have a little varnishing and I do not want oil in the varnish ...
Besides, this compressor always spat out water. Despite the fact that it is poured (and it produces a lot of it!), Every dozen or so days, the water bottle has a few liters of water with oil slime floating on it.
From the questions so far here and there, I know that the piston rings have probably run out. (???) maybe valves ... ??
So the question is:
Does anyone know this type of compressor and know what the rings should be there ..?
I warn you that you have to dismantle and check ... I know it was the easiest way, but I am doing a car tinsmith now and I need a compressor for pneumatic tools. When I undress - I'm standing with work ...
That's why I hope that maybe someone knows what's inside without taking it apart ...

Additional question ...
If the repair of this compressor turned out to be impossible or expensive, can any other compressor be mounted to this set (2.2 kW motor)? If so, what do you recommend (at some normal price) ..?
