Check Your Liquid Disks & Bearings - Have You Replaced Them Lately?

If you have an APEC Mistcoater in your facility then you should be in the habit of periodically checking the condition of the liquid disk assembly.  Due to the nature of the conditions the liquid disks endure they are considered to be wear items and they do need periodic replacing.  Attention should also be paid to the liquid disk shaft bearings and to make sure they are greased according to the manufacturers specifications in order to insure a proper life span.  Ignoring these critical components can lead to costly down time. 

APEC has recently redesigned the liquid disk assembly using heavier components and has improved the manufacturing processes to insure that the disks are balanced to eliminate vibration.

Anyone with the old assemblies should consider replacing them with the new improved model to eliminate some of the pesky maintenance issues.
