Renewal Parts
A Renewal Parts Stocking Program for motor control centers is recommended
in conjunction with a maintenance program. This is important for minimizing
expensive downtime and to be able to facilitate critical repairs.
Factors to consider when developing an effective Renewal Parts Stocking
Program:
1. The frequency of “ON-OFF” cycling and the amount of “ON” or
operating time.
2. The need for continuous operation, inherent design limitations,
environmental considerations, etc.
3. The total number of similar devices supplied as original equipment
within the motor control center.
4. Individual user policies governing spare parts.
Consideration should also be given to stocking complete units when the job
site is in an area remote from a distributor or district sales office or when it is
critical to maintain continuous operation of a system.
