Return On Investment Calculation Worksheet Shows Plants How The Impact Of Doubling The MTBF Of Rotating Equipment Will Affect Their Bottom Lineour Hea

Rock Island, IL (PRWEB) April 23, 2008 -- Inpro/Seal Company announces the availability of their Return On Investment Calculation Worksheet. (ROI/WS). An Excel spreadsheet module, the worksheet, allows users of pumps and motors to quantify the effectiveness of bearing isolators when applied to rotating equipment.

Valuable tool

Once downloaded, the worksheet should prove to be of value to top management, engineering, operations, maintenance and other professionals involved in the plant maintenance, repair and operations (MRO) at process plants.

Once completed, it allows plants to calculate their own ROI (return on investment) relative to the use of bearing isolators, including benchmarks of current repair costs and the effect of doubling the reliability of their rotating equipment.

Simple to use

Extremely user friendly and highly interactive, the end user merely plugs in their respective numbers to benchmark the amount of repairs and maintenance dollars saved by installing bearing isolators.

Data entered includes; plant number of pumps and motors in operation; bearing isolator per unit costs; and the average Meantime Between Failures (MTBF). The worksheet then calculates the actual costs of the bearing isolators, taking MTBF and previous maintenance histories into consideration.

Nothing else like it

The benchmarks are conservatively based on over 30 years experience working with actual end users where they have been able to compile thousands of comparisons related to the use, installation and operation of bearing isolators on similar equipment.

It also provides information such as: accumulated savings; ROI; total investment; net return; data for life-cycle costing; the use of more efficient motors; net costs to select them for more efficiently and more.

the product

Invented by the firm's founder and CEO, David C. Orlowski, bearing isolators are the firm's only products. Following patent protection (#4,022,479) in 1977, the company has since delivered well over three million units and manufactures approximately 40,000 units per month under stringent ISO 9001 certification. The firm also holds some 40 other related patents (some of which go out until 2018 and longer).

Non contacting

Recognizing the need for permanent bearing protection in the process industries, Orlowski invented the bearing isolator as a means to replace sealing methods (lip, contact, face, dual face) that carry a 100% failure rate. A non-contacting type labyrinth seal, the bearing isolator never wears out and can be used over and over for many years. Protected bearings have proven to run 150,000 hours (17 years) or more, eliminating the need for costly maintenance and repair.

Best Maintenance Practice

As a "Best Maintenance Practice", most of the Fortune 500 companies in the process industries and over half of the world's industrial companies use Inpro/Seal products in critical maintenance roles. Documented cases show that a plant can more than double the mean-time-between failure (MTBF) and reduce maintenance costs by at least half.

Available Only At Inpro/Seal.Com

According to Orlowski, "For over 30 years, Inpro/Seal bearing isolators have been conservatively doubling the reliability of rotating equipment. Although bearing isolators have been used with various types of rotating equipment, they have been particularly successful enhancing the performance of process pumps and industrial motors".

Orlowski continued, "Our people are experienced in finding ways to help end users increase productivity, with readily apparent ROI. That is one of the reasons why that today we are shipping over 40,000 bearing isolators every month. Available on our website - www.inpro-seal.com - this worksheet shows just how fast a plant can realize payback while doubling the reliability of their pumps and motors".
