MEMOLUB^® HPS

Enhancing maintenance efficiency in a water treatment facility.

BACKGROUND

Primarily involved in water treatment and sanitation services, our client is focusing on the management of wastewater treatment in urban areas. Their responsibilities include treating sewage and other wastewater to remove pollutants before it is safely discharged back into the environment. Through their infrastructure and operations, they play a crucial role in ensuring the cleanliness and environmental sustainability of water resources in their serviced regions.

THE PROBLEM

Our client faced challenges with their water treatment system, particularly regarding maintenance. Accessing elevated maintenance points, including 22 bearings, proved difficult, requiring specialised equipment and raising safety concerns. These challenges increased operational costs and strained budgets. Additionally, ensuring adequately trained personnel added complexity. Overall, these issues hindered efficient system maintenance.

THE SOLUTION

To address the maintenance challenges, we implemented two Memolub HPS units to optimize the lubrication process. Our distributor also introduced Castrol Tribol GR 100-2 PD grease, enhancing equipment performance. With these improvements, maintenance intervals were extended to every six months, streamlining the process and ensuring smoother equipment operation.

Results

Increased equipment durability: The implementation of the Memolub HPS units and Tribol GR 100-2 PD grease contributed to enhanced equipment durability, reducing the frequency of maintenance and prolonging the lifespan of the system.
Performance optimisation: the optimised lubrication process led to improved performance of the equipment, ensuring smoother operation and minimising downtime.
Cost savings and profitability: by extending maintenance intervals and enhancing equipment performance, our solution resulted in significant cost savings for our client, ultimately improving profitability.
Compliance with safety and quality standards: our solution helped ensure compliance with safety and quality standards by streamlining maintenance processes and enhancing equipment reliability, contributing to a safer working environment and consistent quality output.
