Mechanical Troubleshooting

Expert diagnostics to find the real problem—not just the symptoms. Our experienced technicians identify root causes, provide clear solutions, and get your systems back online fast.

The Problem

When Equipment Acts Up, You Need Answers—Fast

Mechanical systems don't always fail obviously. Sometimes they run poorly, cycle erratically, make strange noises, or just won't perform like they should. Without proper diagnostics, you end up replacing parts that aren't the problem—wasting time and money.

Worse, treating symptoms instead of root causes leads to recurring failures. The same problem keeps coming back because the real issue was never identified or addressed.

Common Situations We Solve:

  • Equipment running but not performing correctly
  • Recurring failures that keep coming back
  • Unexplained shutdowns or lockouts
  • Strange noises, vibrations, or behaviors
  • Error codes or alarms you can't figure out
  • Complete system breakdowns requiring urgent response

What We Troubleshoot

Systems We Diagnose & Repair

Our technicians have hands-on experience troubleshooting a wide range of industrial mechanical systems

Boiler Systems

Steam and hot water boiler issues including lockouts, low pressure, cycling problems, and control failures.

  • Safety interlocks

Steam & Condensate

Steam distribution issues, trap failures, water hammer, and condensate return problems.

  • Trap diagnostics
  • Water hammer
  • Distribution issues

Feedwater Systems

Pump problems, deaerator issues, level control failures, and water quality problems.

  • Pump failures
  • Level controls
  • Water treatment

Gas Systems

Gas pressure problems, regulator issues, gas train failures, and leak detection.

  • Pressure regulation
  • Gas train issues
  • Leak detection

Controls & Safety

Operating controls, safety interlocks, low-water cutoffs, and limit switches.

  • Control calibration
  • Safety devices
  • Interlock testing
Our Approach

Systematic Diagnostics

Our troubleshooting methodology is designed to find the real problem—not just swap parts until something works

1

Listen & Observe

Gather information about symptoms, history, and what operators have observed. Review error logs and operating data.

2

Inspect & Test

Systematic inspection of components, connections, and conditions. Operational testing to observe actual behavior.

3

Analyze & Diagnose

Root-cause analysis to identify the underlying problem. Determine why the failure occurred, not just what failed.

4

Repair & Verify

Execute the repair properly. Test the system to confirm the problem is solved and operation is restored.

The Wrong Approach

  • Replace parts until something works
  • Ignore underlying causes
  • Blame the equipment
  • Quick fixes that don't last

The RamTech Approach

  • Systematic diagnosis first
  • Find the root cause
  • Fix it right the first time
  • Prevent recurring failures
