Maintenance Best Practices for Energy Efficient Facilities

* Able to list organizational problems that lead to inadequate maintenance and characteristics of an effective maintenance system. * Able to use tables and charts to make calculations of the energy costs of various types of maintenance failure (eg in compressed air, steam, etc) * Able to list examples of energy efficiency costs caused by insufficient maintenance. * Able to identify simple ways that infrared and vibration analysis can contribute to identifying maintenance needs
Good maintenance saves energy costs! Properly maintained facilities and equipment produce quality products, reduce downtime and have lower energy costs. This adds up to real money! This course will address the importance of maintenance in facilities, discuss the savings proper maintenance can contribute, and identify techniques that can lead to the energy efficient maintenance of facilities.
