GEA Health Check Spray Dryer

Inadequate maintenance can lead to safety risks, lower product quality, costly repairs, and reduced equipment life. GEA offers a thorough inspection and tailored service report to help you proactively maintain uptime, quality, and longevity.

Common problems caused by incorrect maintenance planning

The most common problems with a spray dryer that has not followed maintenance recommendations are:

• Increased risk of safety hazards, compromising personnel safety
• Lower product quality due to inconsistent particle size or moisture
• Undetected issues causing unplanned downtime and production delays
• High unforeseen maintenance costs due to expensive repairs
• Reduced equipment lifespan from excessive wear and tear 
• Accumulation of deposits leading to cross contamination and bacteria growth

These problems carry a high risk of affecting critical KPIs such as uptime, asset lifespan and product quality. Therefore, it is essential to conduct a thorough inspection of your spray drying plant at least once a year to prevent minor issues from becoming major ones.
