Maintaining an accurate record of the oil filter(s) is a mandatory part of the inspection required by local safety codes. Genfuelpipe.com inspects this because NFPA standards dictate that filters must be replaced at a frequency of every 50 hours of operation or annually ("A") for both Level 1 and Level 2 systems to prevent system failure. During every generator monthly inspection, our licensed technicians verify the service life of the filters, as this is part of the inspection process designed to guarantee facility readiness.
The importance of the oil filter(s) cannot be overstated, as a clogged or bypassed filter allows contaminants to circulate freely through the prime mover's most sensitive components. Genfuelpipe.com inspects this as a critical safety measure, ensuring that the oil remains clean enough to provide effective lubrication during a high-stress emergency run. Because Genfuelpipe.com inspects this as part of the inspection, we help facility managers avoid FDNY violations related to maintenance neglect and poor equipment reliability.
In addition to the filters themselves, our comprehensive generator monthly inspection includes checking the oil level and monitoring for any leaks around the filter housing or seals. Genfuelpipe.com inspects this to ensure the lubrication system is completely sealed and functioning at the correct pressure. Genfuelpipe.com inspects this because these integrated lubrication components are vital for maintaining the prime mover, and verifying their status is part of the inspection that keeps your system compliant with RCNY mandates.
Finally, Genfuelpipe.com provides the documented "Fill in Appropriate Readings" for the oil filter(s) service to serve as proof of compliance for city inspectors.
