Work practices on bulletin board, explosion proof lights and
plugs, climate controlled to 68 degrees, floor was sealed twice
before painting , hoses are arranged so we can pump out of tanks
with either the cart pumps or the pumps mounted on IFH unit by
just switching some hoses with disconnects and never have cross
contamination of oil. Oil safe containers each has colored tag
and storage space is color marked to match tank container.
The room has a security camera that can be seen from offices
. Only those with lube training have a security card to slide
in unlock system to enter room. Standirized everything to 3/4
hose and also 3/4 quick disconnect . Many other things I'am leaving
out but we are pretty proud of our oil room and have put a lot
planning and work into it to try and become World Class lube organization.
