EX3600 Cylinder Protection: Don’t Risk Expensive Downtime and Maintenance

The nature of operation means Hitachi EX3600 Cylinders are exposed and prone to extensive damage which requires costly replacement and maintenance. This doesn’t take into account the exponential costs associated with a downed machine which is not producing. Each damaged cylinder replacement costs up to $50,000 in parts and fitment as well as up to $1,500,000 in lost production per day the machine is not operational.

These costs are extremely significant especially when these cylinders are being damaged on some sites on up to 5 machines per month. When damage of this nature is occurring so regularly profitability and reputation can take a serious hit. Often the damage cannot be avoided due to manner in which the machines operate and the environmental factors involved in the operation. However employing an economical protection system which dramatically decreases the risk of damage and destruction, while minimises the extensive costs associated with complete replacement of cylinders and the associated downtime.
