Punching Out a Preventive Maintenance Punch List

According to Kenneth Klein, president and CEO of QC Electronics, Inc., “When developing a PM program, you must consider the environment the treater is operating in, the product the treater has running through it, and the amount of run time.”

Dennis Damon, eastern regional sales, Corotec Corp. concurs about the environment. “The environment [in which] the treater is located should dictate how often the system is inspected and cleaned,” he says. “This will consist of the plant air that is being drawn through the system. In extreme cases, a system will require attention every day, or it could be once a year if installed in a clean room.”
