Routine Maintenance Increases Uptime
As part of our aftermarket preventative maintenance services, CleanCap also offers service agreements to help regularly maintain your equipment. Not only will you have peace of mind, you will have a scheduled and attainable plan of action that works in conjunction with your operational needs and shutdown schedules. CleanCap will provide you with specifics like the number of maintenance visits recommended, what you should expect during these inspections, spare parts packages, and written maintenance evaluations with photos and critical item repair suggestions. Additionally, we offer an emergency call-out package with response time expectations for equipment that may need attention. Any of these service packages will allow CleanCap to complete much needed routine maintenance and on-line plus off-line inspections. These efforts can significantly increase your uptime and optimize energy usage while minimizing potentially detrimental downtime.

Inspections are comprised of an all-encompassing checklist form which is followed up with a written report and photographs for your maintenance and compliance records. These evaluations are valuable components of proper maintenance and regulatory record-keeping. The checklist is broken down into the following four areas of your system:
