High-pressure systems require maintenance on a regular basis to avoid reduced performance, failures, or damage to their components. Only trained personnel should handle equipment following the OEM guidelines. Here are some tips for your maintenance team:
- Wear Personal Protective Equipment- This includes safety eyewear, gloves, and steel-toe shoes.
- Well Ventilated Work Area- Cleaning chemicals produce fumes that may be harmful to inhale.
- Disconnect Power- Make sure your high-pressure system is completely disconnected from its power source before beginning any cleaning or maintenance. Follow all lockout/ tagout protocols.
- Inspection- Make sure all parts are cleaned and inspected prior to use.
- Follow OEM Guidelines- Maintenance must be done by trained professionals who are familiar with OEM guidelines.
The cleaning of high-pressure systems can be dangerous if not handled properly. It's important to always read the equipment's guidelines provided by the manufacturer for maintenance suggestions. These are just some of the many tips an experienced operator should be familiar with. Regular maintenance and a clean working environment will keep your equipment running problem-free well into the future. If unsure about proper procedures and maintenance, kindly contact us for on-site and off-site support.
