• Seals and bearings will wear with use.
• Over a period of time, this will result in a
gradual decline in performance of your
system.
• Lack of any maintenance at all, will result in
unscheduled breakdowns and costly down
time.
• Planned preventative service and
maintenance, will keep your system
operating at peak performance.
• Please refer to section 12 Useful
Information for contact details.
• Keep a weekly log of the time taken for
your system to reach full vacuum and the
full vacuum achieved.
• This data will give an indication of the
performance of your system.
7.3 Maintenance and Service
Every effort has been made during the design and
manufacture of your system to assure the build
quality and reliability of your system.
Over a period of time however, there will be some
degree of wear and ageing of the seals and bearings
in the chamber, condenser and pump.
The extent of wear and ageing will depend on the
utilisation of the system, the severity of temperature
cycling and the nature of the solvents being used.
With some solvents, pin hole corrosion may occur in
the connecting tubes which will result in a decline in
performance.
Drops in performance are manifested in the time
taken to reach full vacuum, the level of full vacuum
and a general decline in evaporating efficiency.
In order to keep your system at peak performance
and to avoid costly and unscheduled down time, we
strongly recommend some form of planned
maintenance.
Because of the complexity of changing parts in the
field, a high level of skill is required to maintain a
complete system.
To this end, Genevac can offer a range of
preventative maintenance, service and breakdown
contracts to cater for your particular needs.
