A Check List for Planned Preventive Maintenance

A Check List for Planned Preventive Maintenance

P. C. McKenzie Company offers planned preventive maintenance services for a number of industrial and commercial boiler installations. Although each installation is unique there are some common maintenance steps that our service group follows. 

Even though not all of these steps apply to every boiler design, we thought they might prove helpful in designing a planned preventive maintenance check list for your facility.  

• Open front and rear doors. Clean and vacuum fireside surfaces as required.
  
• Inspect all refractory. Patch and wash coat as required.
  
• Inspect all gasketing on front and rear doors and replace as necessary.
  
• Seal and close front and rear doors properly.
  
• Remove low and auxiliary low water cut off controls, clean and inspect. Then re-install using new gaskets.
  
• Remove plugs in control piping, inspect, clean and re-install.
  
• Remove all hand hole and man hole plates. Flush boiler with water to remove loose scaled and sediment.
  
• Replace all hand hole and man hole plates with new gaskets.
  
• Open feedwater tank manway, inspect and clean as required. Replace manway plate with new gasket.
  
• Clean burner and burner pilot.
  
• Check pilot electrode and adjust or replace.
  
• Clean air damper and blower assembly.
  
• Clean motor starter contacts and check operation.
  
• Make necessary adjustments to burner for proper combustion and record all results in service report.
  
• Perform all flame safeguard and safety trip checks and record results in service report.
