Sarmak Proactive Maintenance Service Sarpro+ is a maintenance service that analyzes the operating data of your equipment, allowing you to detect potential failures in advance.

• Data analysis: Performs trend analysis by constantly monitoring compressor operating parameters.
• Early diagnosis: Detects potential mechanical and electrical problems before they grow.
• Planned intervention: Protects production by preventing unplanned downtime due to failures.

The measurement and analysis services performed within the scope of Sarmak proactive maintenance are:

• Compressed air leak detection and analysis: Detects leaks in compressed air lines using ultrasonic methods.
• Vibration measurement and analysis: Measures vibration levels in rotating equipment to detect mechanical problems.
• Electric motor measurement and analysis: Tests motor windings and electrical status to prevent failures.
• Thermal measurement and analysis: Identifies overheating spots in electrical and mechanical connections.
• Electrical power measurement and analysis: Monitors energy quality and power consumption for efficiency.
• Grounding measurement and analysis: Audits compliance with electrical safety standards.

The key benefits you will provide to your business by choosing our proactive maintenance system are:

• You reduce unplanned downtime: By detecting potential failures in advance, you minimize production losses.
• You lower maintenance costs: By preventing unnecessary maintenance operations, you make the right intervention at the right time.
• You extend equipment life: By measuring and analyzing machine status, you ensure long-term efficiency.
• You make data-driven decisions: You strengthen your maintenance strategy with analytical reports.

The proactive maintenance approach adds the following values to your business and production processes compared to traditional methods:

• Spare parts management: Reduces the need for emergency interventions, providing more optimum spare parts management and longer equipment life.
• Strategic management perspective: Transforms the maintenance function from a supportive structure into a strategic management approach that increases production continuity and operational efficiency.
• Risk reduction: Contributes significantly to reducing risks regarding production continuity in today's industry.
• Eliminating uncertainties: The condition of industrial equipment like compressors is analyzed with measurements and technical data, clarifying the maintenance scope, removing uncertainties, and making interventions predictable.
• Regular planning: The predictable and data-driven maintenance approach enables more regular planning of maintenance processes.
• Production continuity: Detecting equipment failures at an early stage prevents unplanned downtime and minimizes production losses.
• Labor efficiency: Running maintenance activities in a planned manner allows for more effective use of labor and service resources.

The main differences and operational distinctions between proactive and reactive maintenance are as follows:

• Timing difference: Proactive maintenance is planned and performed before a failure occurs, while reactive maintenance is carried out urgently after a failure happens and production stops.
• Cost impact: Proactive maintenance involves low-budget checks and overhauls, whereas reactive maintenance creates much higher costs due to unplanned downtime losses and major parts damage.
• Equipment lifetime: Regular measurements extend the life of machines, while machines that are only serviced upon breakdown degrade faster.
• Occupational safety: Planned interventions minimize safety risks, whereas rushed emergency repairs increase the likelihood of accidents.

The recommended intervals and scope of a healthy proactive maintenance process for screw compressors are:

• Weekly checks: Involves visual inspection of oil levels, temperature readings, and filter conditions.
• Monthly analyses: Ultrasonic scanning of compressed air line leaks and thermal camera inspections.
• Three-month measurements: Recording and analyzing vibration levels of motor bearings and airend bearings.
• Six-month tests: Includes electrical power quality, voltage imbalances, and grounding system measurements.
• Annual overhauls: Replacing worn-out parts before they fail, based on data analysis reports.

Proactive maintenance applications provide financial savings by increasing the energy efficiency of enterprises:

• Energy efficiency: Fixing air leaks alone can yield direct savings of up to 30% in the electricity consumed by the compressor.
• Spare parts savings: Small interventions made in time prevent high-cost major parts replacements.
• Prevention of downtime costs: By preventing unexpected production interruptions, revenue and productivity losses are avoided.
• Investment depreciation: Extending the operating lifetime of equipment defers new machine investment costs in the long run.

Airend overhaul is the process of protecting the compressor's heart, and its delay poses severe risks:

• Bearing life monitoring: Replacing bearings as they approach their manufacturer-specified lifetime limits is a proactive protective step.
• Consequences of delay: If the overhaul is delayed, bearings may disintegrate, and rotors may rub against each other or the housing, ruining the airend completely.
• Multiplied costs: While timely bearing replacement is cost-effective, a seized airend results in the cost of buying a whole new airend block.
• Energy loss: Worn airend components increase internal bypasses, dropping compressor efficiency and increasing electricity bills.

Signing a regular maintenance contract ensures that proactive protection is secured at both corporate and operational levels:

• Regular tracking: Our technical service automatically tracks your compressor's maintenance schedules and performs planned visits even if you forget.
• Price protection: During the contract period, you can plan your budget in advance without being affected by spare parts and labor price increases.
• Priority service: In any emergency, contracted customers have the advantage of receiving priority service.
• Expert reporting: Measurements taken after each maintenance are converted into trend analysis, providing a report on the future condition of the machine.
