Maintenance

Availability and operational safety of your plant are our priority

Under the term “operation and maintenance” and “life cycle management”, we combine all activities in the life cycle of your siren system: from spare parts management, inspections and maintenance to repair and modernisation. Over the entire life cycle of the siren system, Kockum Sonics assesses the condition of the system and suggests repair or modernisation if necessary.

Preventing problems before they occur

Investing in prevention of failure and repairs is worthwhile, especially for a safety system. Despite the advanced technology and constant system monitoring, the installations need regular and professional maintenance. Our services include various technical measures and visual inspection of the installation. During our route planning, we take into account environmental and economic aspects. Upon request, we take over the coordination and organisation of all your service assignments.

 

Why the right maintenance is so important:

Through professional maintenance from the manufacturer, the availability and operational safety of your system increases and risk factors such as false alarms or functional failures are minimized or eliminated. A regular inspection during the maintenance cycle helps to identify the optimisation potential and timely measures can put into place.

Modernisation & Retrofit

Preserve what is good, optimise what is outdated – modernisation ensures safety and reliability

To think and act ahead is especially important for warning systems to ensure a flawless alert in cases of emergencies. All alarm systems and sirens need to be carefully maintained to guarantee they are fully operational and functional at any given time and protect your investment in the long-term.

Modernisation is important to meet changing requirements and to keep the siren system up to date with the latest technologies.
