Regular medical gas maintenance is critical for numerous reasons. Assuring that your systems are kept in good working order means they are more likely to operate at peak efficiency, resulting in the most effective workflow possible.
Another positive effect of frequent servicing is that equipment should be less prone to sudden failure, which can improve safety for employees and patients. With scheduled medical gas system services, facilities also can keep the cost of these devices at a more manageable level. When trained technicians have an opportunity to inspect equipment often, they can spot signs of trouble before they develop into serious and costly problems.
Repairing leaking outlets means reducing the gas supplier costs, the energy to run pumps, and the wear and tear of these pumps.
Maintenance and Service
Regular service and preventive maintenance helps keep medical gas systems in optimal working condition. Medical air compressors, vacuum inlets, pumps, waste anesthesia gas disposal units, and source gas systems and their components require regular maintenance to operate reliably and safely. Preventive maintenance includes:
- Oil changes
- Filter replacement
- Belt replacement
- Gauge replacement
- Gasket replacement
Medical Gas System Repairs
Problems that require medical gas equipment repair can arise in outlets, alarm wiring, and vacuum systems and pumps. Issues in these components may result in hazardous conditions such as leaks, clogs, inadequate filtration and corrosion, and should be fixed as soon as possible. Repairing outlet leaks can also reduce employee exposure to regulated gases such as Nitrous Oxide and Carbon Dioxide.
In many cases, however, these problems could have been corrected earlier through routine and preventive maintenance. This is why such measures are crucial for achieving the safe operation of your system.
