Fluid Maintenance

The Single Most Effective Preventive Maintenance Practice

WEBINAR

No Travel Costs

Nothing to Install

Same Price for One Person or a Roomful

When most managers, supervisors, mechanics and electricians think of "Fluid Maintenance" the first thing  that comes to mind is changing the filters.  There's much more to it than that!  Fluid Maintenance is eliminating and controlling oil leakagekeeping the oil temperature well below 140 degrees F., properly setting the oil heater, correctly installing hoses and many, many more important factors.

From our own experience we've found that over 80% of all hydraulic failures can be attributed directly to poor fluid maintenance practices . The reservoir usually receives very little attention until the machine slows down or stops working altogether.  In this hour and a half webinar your maintenance crew will learn the proper techniques and practices to reduce oil loss, improve machine reliability and reduce downtime

Until now, having GPM conduct this training involved travel costs, scheduling attendees and securing a meeting facility.  GPM has now made the workshop available through this online Webinar! Since the webinar is priced by the number of computers connected and not by attendee, it can be presented on a large screen in a meeting room for the same cost for 1 or 20 people!.

Learning Objectives

  • The 9 causes of leakage in a hydraulic system.
  • How oil viscosity can affect speed, leakage and the life of the pump.
  • The maximum and minimum recommended oil temperatures.
  • The 4 functions of the hydraulic oil in the system.
  • Should you use a suction strainer in the reservoir?
  • Are your oil coolers installed in the proper locations in the system?
  • The correct settings for temperature switches that turn the air cooler on, indicate high temperature warnings and shutdown of the system
  • The four ways that contamination can enter the system causing component wear and failure.
  • Do your systems meet the required ISO Cleanliness Code recommendations?
  • Do you know when and how to flush a hydraulic system?
  • Are you changing your oil when it could very well be reclaimed saving thousands of dollars?
  • Find out why the type of pump, valve and maximum pressure dictates if a pressure filter is required.
  • Learn when a "kidney loop" system is absolutely necessary.
  • The four main functions of the hydraulic reservoir.

The webinar is fully browser based and requires no installation of software on your end.  Our PowerPoint presentation is broadcast directly to your browser. Once you register, you will be able to download and print out the program content. 

Questions can be asked and answered by text through the browser or by audio while the webinar is in progress!  All of the benefits of a live instructor are provided with none of the additional costs.  Companies waste many thousands of dollars every year on component replacement that could be avoided by properly maintaining the oil.  One auto manufacturer has almost eliminated hydraulic failures in their injection molding machines by simply changing the way they filter their oil.  A sawmill cut their average downtime by over 90% using our system flushing techniques.  A paper mill installed a different type of cooler and halted repeated failures of a set of four $20,000 servo valves.   Provide your maintenance crew with the knowledge and skills to maintain your fluid and rescue your machines by registering for this webinar now!
