Liebert thermal and power systems provide critical infrastructure for important machinery in the IT sector. Thermal systems maintain temperature, and power systems ensure that energy is allotted efficiently and is constant without interruption. These systems are designed to be long-lasting, but preventative maintenance is vital to their lifespans.
Being proactive in your Liebert thermal and power systems’ health means making sure that everything is well-kept, organized, and in good working order. Proper maintenance helps prevent downtime, increases energy efficiency, and helps you get the most out of your investment. Do not shorten the lifespan of your thermal and power systems by foregoing regular maintenance. Preventative maintenance is your insurance that you won’t have to stress about repairs and breaking the bank to fix a problem that could have been spotted earlier on.

Our technicians have years of experience in the industry and are ready to help with all of your maintenance needs. Give us a call to talk to a representative for more information.
What Preventative Maintenance Means
Thermal systems are essential in regulating temperature. Data centers and computer mainframes contain sensitive instruments that need to be kept at a steady, cool temperature. Overheating can damage many of the components and machinery inside and can be costly, and not just financially. Any data lost is also a considerable cost that can be potentially worse than a financial one. A thermal system is integral in maintaining data centers, IT environments, computer systems, and other large frameworks to prevent overheating. Even though these systems are built to maintain, they need maintenance themselves.
When examining thermal systems, the key areas to look at include:
- System cleanliness, to ensure there is no build-up of any dust or debris that could impede function. The filters also need regular changing.
- Components, for any wear, tear, or breakage. Parts should be in good condition for maximum operating efficiency.
- Electrical components and other electrical systems, to certify that the power distribution is at acceptable levels.
Power systems provide an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) in the event of a main power failure. If the main power is ever cut or goes out, a UPS can restore power quickly and make sure that nothing is interrupted. Power outages can cause damage to sensitive equipment. A UPS makes sure that power flows constantly, and that sudden outages won’t harm the machinery or stored information.
For UPS power systems, preventative maintenance entails the following:
- Visual inspection of power supplies to find any obvious defects or degradation. This helps catch problems before they start to become big issues.
- The temperature of the system is checked to ensure nothing is overheating and that the components are properly cooled.
- Replace and update components as necessary to prevent any sort of failure. Equipment will be tested to ensure it is still stable and functional.
You should have these inspections regularly. Depending on the size of the system and what it’s used for, preventative maintenance should occur two to three times a year. Catching problems before they start helps prevent system downtime, costly repairs, and potential damages and hazards from forming. Liebert thermal and power systems are quality-built to last, but they also need the care to stay that way. Inspecting these areas is an essential part of getting the most out of these systems.
Take Preventative Measures
Repairs can be costly for power and thermal system technology. According to Forbes, system downtime caused by outages or other mechanical failures is punishing for most companies. Downtime for these systems can potentially cost thousands of dollars a minute. Putting in the effort to maintain your Liebert thermal and power systems will save you money, stress, and prevent catastrophic failures from occurring. The costs of preventative maintenance are small compared to what you could spend on easy-to-catch system issues that could have a serious effect on performance.
