Did you know filter maintenance can prevent premature failure in HVAC systems? There are several routine preventive maintenance tasks required to maintain indoor air quality and keep a building’s heating and cooling systems running efficiently. This interactive online course covers basic filter replacement best practices, v-belt replacement and alignment procedures, how to clean a coil, basic lubrication techniques, and daily rounds and readings and how to perform them.

Learning Objectives

By the end of this course, you will be able to:

  • Describe basic filter replacement best practices
  • Demonstrate basic v-belt replacement and alignment procedures
  • Discuss how to clean a coil
  • Apply basic lubrication techniques
  • Comprehend the purpose of daily rounds and readings and how to perform them

Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) is a manufacturing performance metric that is used to identify the sources of lost production and measure improvement efforts. In this course we will discuss the purpose of OEE and how it is calculated. We will define availability, performance, and quality factors. We will also describe how to implement and analyze OEE and define the Six Big Losses, as well as how to reduce them.

Learning Objectives

By the end of this course, you will be able to:

  • Define Overall Equipment Effectiveness, or OEE
    State the purpose of OEE
  • Define availability, performance, and quality factors
  • Describe how OEE is calculated
  • List the required data and describe how to implement OEE
  • Describe how to analyze OEE
  • Define each of the Six Big Losses
  • Describe the OEE improvement methodologies that can be applied to reduce each of the Six Big Losses

The materials in this course are designed to demonstrate the goals, methods and practical benefits of Total Productive Maintenance (TPM). In this interactive online course, you will learn about the essential elements of TPM, explore the fundamental strategies that are required for a successful TPM effort, and learn how to maintain and manage equipment cooperatively to maximize equipment effectiveness.

Learning Objectives

By the end of this course, you will be able to:  

  • Explain the benefits of implementing TPM in a facility
  • Define the three categories that contribute to overall equipment effectiveness
  • List the five key elements that provide the guidelines for effective equipment management
  • Identify factors that may affect the success of TPM in a facility
  • Describe the three fundamentals that are characteristic of TPM efforts

This course is designed to demonstrate the goals, methods and practical benefits of Total Productive Maintenance (TPM) with a focus on preventive maintenance. TPM depends upon good basic maintenance practices. Without a disciplined, systematic approach to preventive maintenance, it is impossible to achieve a high level of equipment effectiveness.

In this interactive online course, you will learn how to select the equipment to focus on first, determine which preventive maintenance activities should be performed on that equipment, develop clear and specific instructions for performing those activities, and develop an effective preventive maintenance schedule.

Learning Objectives

By the end of this course, you will be able to:  

  • Recognize the characteristics of a good maintenance program
  • Describe how to develop and conduct preventive maintenance procedures
  • Describe how to conduct preventive maintenance through daily routines and scheduled outages

This course is designed to demonstrate the goals, methods and practical benefits of Total Productive Maintenance (TPM) with a focus on predictive maintenance. The early detection of developing problems is fundamental to preventive maintenance. However, some problems are difficult to detect early enough or accurately enough to safeguard equipment effectiveness.

In this interactive online course, you will learn that predictive maintenance techniques provide the means to identify deterioration not yet detectable with the five senses, and to measure the amount of deterioration accurately so that parts may be replaced at the optimum time. If parts are replaced too late, equipment effectiveness suffers; if parts are replaced too early, unnecessary costs are generated. In this course, you will also learn that predictive maintenance is a cornerstone of TPM.

Learning Objectives

At the end of this course, you will be able to:

  • Explain why control limits are used to avoid equipment failure
  • Identify common techniques of Predictive Maintenance
  • Compare and Contrast Predictive and Condition Based Maintenance
