Practice What You Preach with Your Equipment Support Systems: It’s FREE Money

More than 40 percent of the allocated electrical costs in an industrial environment is attributed to equipment support systems, including heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC), compressed air, chilled water, boilers, and more. While equipment optimization and visibility are often things that many facility managers take great care in providing, it is not as often considered for these support systems, which product line equipment often depends on to maximize uptime.

Getting Started on Equipment Reliability? Look in the Dumpster!

The definition and concept of reliability remains elusive in terms of application. Ask as many folks as you can to explain what reliability means to them or their situation and the responses will vary wildly. This can be especially nebulous among the decision makers for resource allocation, but what they usually want is lower costs and more quality output.
