Swing Set Engine Ready To Go

Preventing Engine Downtime

Knowledge Base

02/20/2025

Engine failures can happen unexpectedly, causing costly downtime and operational disruption. Having a swing set engine ready to go ensures a seamless transition while the failed engine is repaired or overhauled.

This approach has already proven its value for our operators time and time again. This week is just one of those examples…

A large energy operator we hold spare engines for contacted us after one of their fire hydrant engines suffered a catastrophic failure.

Having a spare with us means we can organise a quick swap with minimal disruption.

The stored engine was run through full testing to confirm it was still in top condition before being sent to the site for our engineers to carry out the engine swap and commissioning. With more cases like this emerging, it’s clear that having a contingency plan is key to maintaining operational efficiency.

At Bartech, we not only supply, store and install spare engines but also handle removals, commissioning and inspections. If requested, we will return failed engines for assessment and possible overhaul, ensuring long-term reliability.
