Star Refrigeration presents its enhanced Star Diagnostic Solutions (SDS), the latest addition to StarCare, a planned preventative maintenance (PPM) programme for refrigeration plant operators. Offering 24/7 monitoring, fast emergency response and full data analysis, the SDS service is designed to reduce engineering, maintenance and operation costs by improving plant reliability, safety and efficiency.
Star Refrigeration Operations Director John Fraser explains: Equipment operation and maintenance typically accounts for over 80% of a refrigeration plant’s lifecycle cost. Investing in proactive maintenance is absolutely vital in order to ensure optimum long-term performance and lower running costs. In our experience, the cost of plant inefficiency and unreliability far outweighs the investment required in an effective PPM regime.”
Kevin Chrystal, Group Maintenance Manager for Yearsley Logistics says: Having previously worked in partnership with Star, we were keen to seek the firm’s advice on reducing our electrical usage. The Starcare team completed an analysis of energy usage at our Coleshill depot and drew up a proposal to take the project forward.” He adds: “After just one month of implementing Star’s suggestions, we achieved our lowest electrical usage since 2003.”
