As with any other system, maintenance is essential to extend its service life, minimize serious issues, and ensure high performance during operation.
Industrial filtration systems, in particular, require specific maintenance to guarantee optimal air quality in the workplace, a crucial factor for protecting the health of operators in these environments.
All industrial filters handling dust, fumes, air, and liquids must, by law, undergo regular maintenance by qualified personnel.
How often should maintenance be performed on industrial filters? Typically, interventions are scheduled every 1,000 to 2,000 hours of operation, depending on the type of system.
The procedures vary depending on the system. It is always essential to follow the manufacturer’s instructions to avoid damaging the equipment.
The core focus of scheduled maintenance is the filter elements, which must not only be inspected regularly but also cleaned and, if excessively damaged or repeatedly reused, replaced with new ones.
When performing these operations on the filter elements, operators must not only wear appropriate personal protective equipment but also take care not to release any harmful substances contained within. If the elements need to be disposed of, they should be stored properly until collected by authorized specialized companies.
Companies that follow a structured plan with periodic maintenance of their filters can:
Recycle and recover part of the dust collected in the filters, reintroducing it into the production cycle
Increase overall productivity
Achieve economic savings
Reduce the number of extraordinary maintenance interventions
Extend the lifespan of the system and its components
Ensure a healthy and safe working environment
Following a regular maintenance schedule is the best way to guarantee efficiency, safety, and longevity for industrial filtration systems. Download our maintenance program and optimally plan the interventions for your industrial filtration system.
