It is very important to maintain a vigorous, well-documented maintenance plan for the vacuum furnace. In addition to normal preventative maintenance, below is a list of additional maintenance precautions that go beyond normal maintenance tasks. 

Operating Procedures for maintenance should be in place for every system component that requires periodic calibration or/and preventative maintenance. Critical parts should be listed and should be available at the user s site. The procedure should describe what. should be done, when and what the qualifications of the engineer performing the tasks should be. System components should be labeled with the date of the last and next maintenance. All maintenance activities should be documented in the instrument s log book. Suppliers of equipment should provide a list of recommended maintenance activities and procedures (SOPs) on how to perform the maintenance. Some suppliers also offer maintenance contracts with services for preventative maintenance at scheduled time intervals. 

Every facility can benefit from a review of its infrastructure. This includes all utilities, entrances/exits, process and production equipment, telephone and data lines, water supply, backup power systans, process controls, hazardous material storage tanks and pits, fire alarm systems, and sprinkler systems. Making a list of all infrastructure details is helpful when evaluating security vulnerability, as well as such mundane tasks as budget analysis, routine and preventive maintenance, and personnel responsibilities.
