AssetPT are delighted to be bringing their superb CMMS software, Plan4, to Maintec, the only UK Exhibition for the Maintenance and Asset Management Industry, to be held at the NEC, Birmingham on 17th. to 19th. March 2009
 
With the recession forcing Plant Managers to prioritise cost-saving measures, this year's event will undoubtedly be the most relevant in its history as it is a showcase for the latest developments in maintenance management, predictive maintenance, CMMS and energy management
 
Come and visit us on Stand 189 and see how a CMMS system really should work, designed by a Maintenance Engineer for Maintenance Engineers

One of the challenges facing plant instrumentation engineers today is the effective and reliable monitoring of thrust bearing wear in critical pump applications.  Typically pumps of this type are in continuous use and operational downtime is normally only permitted during planned outages.  Predicting the wear and hence requirement to replace the thrust pads, is essential to fit in with this regime.

 With rotational speeds between 3000 and 7000 RPM, protection against potential pump damage is also key, as excessive thrust wear can not only damage the bearing assembly but also the impeller, resulting in the plant potentially being out of action for 6 months or more.

As part of the government Enhanced Capital Allowance ( ECA ) scheme, Parker domnick hunter energy saving compressed air drying products complete with Dewpoint Dependent Switching (DDS) have been added to the Energy Technology List ( ETL ) with effect from December 1st, 2008.

The ECA scheme for Energy Saving Technologies is a straightforward way for a business to improve its cash flow through accelerated tax relief, by encouraging investment in energysaving plant or machinery specified in the ETL which is managed by the Carbon Trust on behalf of the Government.
