Course Overview
Where maintenance history on boiler and heat exchanger maintenance is incomplete, every decision becomes a guess. Equipment involved in exchanger maintenance rarely fails without warning; the warning is usually in data nobody reviewed. Comparative studies of the engineering and maintenance work capability across sectors find the same handful of failure points recurring. Cases are chosen to expose the trade-offs in boiler and heat exchanger maintenance rather than to illustrate ideal conditions. They leave able to brief senior management on this part of engineering and maintenance work in terms that support a decision. Ambition around exchanger maintenance outruns capacity unless the sequencing is deliberate. The programme converts boiler and heat exchanger maintenance from an area of general awareness into a set of repeatable practices. It is written for people who have to make exchanger maintenance work with the resources they already have. The programme closes with an action plan for this aspect of engineering and maintenance work that each participant writes for their own organisation.

Course Modules
Boiler and heat exchanger maintenance: turnarounds, contractors and scope control
2 sessions · 8 pointsSession 1Investigating the failure on boiler and heat exchanger maintenance that keeps returning
- Set inspection intervals for boiler and heat exchanger maintenance from condition data where it exists.
- Specify condition monitoring on exchanger maintenance that gives usable warning time.
- Verify contractor competence and method statements for boiler and heat exchanger maintenance.
- Set maintenance indicators for exchanger maintenance that reward planning rather than heroics.
Session 2Making exchanger maintenance work when resources are constrained
- Confirm isolation and permit requirements before any work on boiler and heat exchanger maintenance.
- Update drawings and documentation after every modification to exchanger maintenance.
- Record who is competent to work on boiler and heat exchanger maintenance and when requalification is due.
- List the credible failure modes of exchanger maintenance and the consequence of each.
Exchanger maintenance: history, documentation and competence
2 sessions · 8 pointsSession 1How exchanger maintenance actually fails, and how much warning you get
- Confirm that those complying with boiler and heat exchanger maintenance understand why it exists.
- Compare the cost of exchanger maintenance with the cost of its absence.
- Plan the sequence in which improvements to boiler and heat exchanger maintenance will be introduced.
- Test the procedure for exchanger maintenance against a realistic scenario.
Session 2The cost of exchanger maintenance and how to present it
- Identify critical spares for boiler and heat exchanger maintenance and confirm lead times against consequence.
- Assign a criticality rating to exchanger maintenance that drives work order priority.
- Estimate the true cost of one hour of unplanned downtime on boiler and heat exchanger maintenance.
- Arrange the handover of exchanger maintenance so capability survives staff changes.
Exchanger maintenance: planning, scheduling and downtime reduction
2 sessions · 8 pointsSession 1What condition data on exchanger maintenance is telling you early
- Define the turnaround scope for boiler and heat exchanger maintenance and freeze it before mobilisation.
- Set the review interval for exchanger maintenance and who attends.
- Decide what will be stopped to create capacity for boiler and heat exchanger maintenance.
- Establish who is informed, consulted and accountable in exchanger maintenance.
Session 2Planning work on boiler and heat exchanger maintenance so it does not become reactive
- Review the last twelve months of maintenance history for boiler and heat exchanger maintenance.
- Calculate the ratio of planned to reactive work on exchanger maintenance.
- Build the life cycle cost model supporting repair or replace on boiler and heat exchanger maintenance.
- Record what was learned when exchanger maintenance did not go as planned.
Exchanger maintenance: spares, logistics and availability
2 sessions · 8 pointsSession 1Testing exchanger maintenance before relying on it
- Estimate the resource boiler and heat exchanger maintenance requires to run as designed.
- Reduce the variation in how exchanger maintenance is carried out between teams.
- Check that records of boiler and heat exchanger maintenance answer the questions likely to be asked.
- Define the trigger that would require exchanger maintenance to be redesigned.
Session 2Isolating exchanger maintenance safely before work begins
- Confirm lubrication, alignment and balance standards applied to boiler and heat exchanger maintenance.
- Close out actions on exchanger maintenance rather than leaving them open indefinitely.
- Agree what will be standardised in boiler and heat exchanger maintenance and what will not.
- Identify the data already collected that bears on exchanger maintenance.
