MAINTENANCE
Explosion-proof electrical instrumentation equipment maintenance
Facility maintenance services also are undertaken in the field of oil refineries and chemical factories, where the contents are inspections for motors, electrical and instrumentation equipment, and electrical and control panels, and have been achieved in order to preserve and continuously conserve our customer's plants. Services include maintenance planning for Turnaround and Shutdown and ensure that the provided maintenance work and shutdown activities are embarked on with safety, quality, and on time. The result of our maintenance work would improve the operational capacity, uptime, and quality of output for our customer's plants.
Electrical equipment inspection
Our goal is to meet the needs of our customers, and we aim to provide total management of electrical equipment through bulk contracting.
-
Electrical Equipment Inspection Service
-
In order to operate a plant safely, it is essential that various electrical facilities and equipment work properly. We carry out periodic and routine maintenance inspections of all electrical equipment, as well as various inspections and maintenance, three-phase uneven insertion tests of circuit breakers, special tests of protective relays, and instrument calibration and testing of switchboards, in order to ensure the normal operation of an electrical room, the heart of a plant.
In addition, we also create protection coordination curves and investigate cable accidents (we even carry out restoration work at the failure point after localization) to link the inspection of electrical equipment to total maintenance.
Electric motor maintenance / diagnostic maintenance
We provide a maintenance system from the diagnosis of remaining service life to maintenance by calculating residual breakdown voltage.
-
Motor Maintenance
-
Continuous daily maintenance predicts and prevents sudden motor failures. In addition, we use the accumulated data to propose maintenance that does not result in over-maintenance. In addition, we are ready to respond to sudden breakdowns at any time of the day or night.
-
Rotating machine insulation diagnosis
-
Estimated breakdown voltage values (VP%) of rotating motors, such as generators and high-voltage induction motors, are calculated according to the General Criteria Guidelines developed from our own database.
-
Rotating machine insulation diagnostic car
-
This machine and the diagnostic vehicle were introduced for the purpose of precision insulation diagnosis of generators and high-voltage induction motors, which are the power source of the plant. In order to meet the needs of customers and in order to prevent sudden breakdowns of these high-voltage motors, we have installed the established residual breakdown voltage calculation system and diagnostic equipment to provide customers with the details of the measurement results in advance, so that we can provide satisfactory diagnostic results.
-
Electrical Equipment Database
-
We developed the test data management software using single wire connection diagrams to meet customer needs with trend management in mind.
