Preventative & Predictive Maintenance Plans for Compressors & Dryers

55% of people use reactive maintenance, not predictive
70%-80% of all equipment failures are caused by improper maintenance
Drawbacks:
Unplanned equipment downtime = lost revenue
Overtime for maintenance = high labor costs
Preventive Maintenance cuts maintenance costs by 12-18%
Decreased equipment failures = higher revenue
Extended equipment lifetime = greater ROI
Best Practices
30% of all work should be devoted to preventive maintenance.
Only 20% of maintenance should be reactive
90% of work orders should originate from PM inspections.
