This paper reviews the basic elements of the maintenance process of scientific equipment in these laboratories. These elements are: The faculty member who supervises the laboratories; the laboratory technician responsible for equipment operation and periodical maintenance; the maintenance technician responsible for faults diagnosis; the qualified skilled technician responsible for repairing and the experienced technician in measurements and calibration. The paper also reviews the major causes of equipment breakdown; it equally shows the automatic computerized fault diagnosis and it also describes the scientific methods that should be followed in achieving the maintenance operations. Finally, this paper shows the case study of the Maintenance Centre in (K.A. U.), which was established to fulfill the following objectives: 1 - Setting-up a technical scientific system for all maintenance operations. 2 - Setting-up a library for manual maintenance. 3 - Developing a computerized data bank for maintenance operations. 4 - Setting-up a reliable system for spare parts. 5 - Developing a data bank to cover the laboratories equipment in the University and their operational status. 6 - Periodical enhancing and upgrading knowledge for laboratory users. The paper argues that the centre has fully achieved its objective technically and financially.  ISSN : 1319-1047  Journal Name : Engineering Sciences Journal  Volume : 6  Issue Number : 1  Publishing Year : 1414 AH 1994 AD  Article Type : Article  Added Date : Monday, January 4, 2010  Researchers Researcher Name (Arabic) Researcher Name (English) Researcher Type Dr Grade Email فؤاد محمد غزالي GHAZALI, FOUAD MOHAMMED Investigator Doctorate   Files File Name Type Description  24659.pdf pdf أسس صيانة الأجهزة العلمية بالجامعات Back To Researches Page
