Regular rectifier preventative maintenance keeps your surfacing finishing operation running efficiently and reliably. Seacole’s partner American CRS provides high-quality rectifiers, expert service, and long-term performance support to keep production consistent and downtime minimal.
Rectifiers are the beating hearts of your surface finishing process. Keeping your rectifiers in peak condition ensures consistent performance, fewer shutdowns, and longer equipment life. Preventative maintenance is essential for maintaining optimal rectifier quality, efficiency, and safety.
Seacole partners with American CRS to help our customers keep their rectifiers in peak operating condition. Here are our top tips for rectifier preventative maintenance and how American CRS can support your equipment and your operation.
Rectifier Preventative Maintenance Tips
American CRS recommends finishers follow these best practices when designing a preventative maintenance plan for their rectifiers.
- Properly Locate and Install Your Equipment. Keep your rectifiers away from corrosive fumes and high humidity.
- Clean and Seal Your Rectifiers Regularly. This prevents chemical ingress and corrosion.
- Track Wear on Parts. Keep a log of energized hours (for circuit boards and displays) and amp hours (for power components and semiconductors) to track wear over time.
- Partner with an Experienced Rectifier Repair Company. American CRS is based in the US and works with companies across the country to keep their rectifiers in optimal working order.
