Maintenance of Smart Parking Systems: Small Investment, Great Benefits

An automated parking system provided and installed by Viet Chao will always be designed and equipped with the most optimal equipment and materials to ensure the quality and longevity of the project. However, under the influence of various factors, the system will gradually deteriorate over time, reducing its operational efficiency. To ensure effective operation and timely detection and repair of any malfunctions in the parking system, maintaining the smart parking system is a mandatory requirement. This article will provide you with detailed information about Viet Chao’s smart parking system maintenance services.

Overview of Smart Parking System Maintenance

Why is it necessary to maintain a smart parking system?

Maintaining a smart parking system is a wise action that helps keep the parking system of the project operating at its best, preventing any major or minor malfunctions and extending the system’s lifespan.

Installing and deploying an automated parking system is not a small investment. Therefore, to prevent additional costs arising from unnecessary damages during operation, regular maintenance is essential. If maintained regularly, the equipment and machinery in the system will be ensured to operate at maximum capacity with minimal breakdowns, saving a significant amount of costs for investors.

Moreover, maintenance inspections also play an important role in ensuring the safety of customers using the system as well as their vehicles. Some equipment in automated parking systems, if not maintained regularly, has a high risk of malfunction. This can affect passengers’ vehicles, leading to severe impacts or damage. It can even pose safety risks for customers during vehicle retrieval.

Maintenance Frequency

The frequency of maintenance for a smart parking system depends on various factors such as scale, type of system, equipment lifespan, usage level, maintenance quality, etc.

In general, an entire smart parking system should have a minimum maintenance frequency of once a month.

For example, if the facility adheres to usage and preservation regulations, a modular smart parking system (PSH) installed by Viet Chao will undergo periodic maintenance inspections as follows:

• The first inspection for the first two years.
• After the first inspection period expires, inspections must be conducted annually thereafter.

• Additionally, there are daily, weekly, and monthly check procedures with specific checklists to maintain optimal operational performance.

Smart Parking System Maintenance Process

The procedure for maintaining Viet Chao’s smart parking system is outlined in the following steps:

Step 1:

• The owner of the automated parking system reports any issues that need addressing in writing or via phone.
• The request must clearly state the condition, symptoms, and time of occurrence of the issue while ensuring that information is concise and clear. During this time, the system must cease operation.
• If no malfunctions occur in the system, the technical team will still carry out warranty maintenance according to the monthly frequency.

Step 2:

• The maintenance unit receives information about the issue, checks the technical history of the system

Step 3:

• If the product is still under warranty, the maintenance unit will prepare necessary materials and equipment to address the issue on-site.
• If the product is not covered by warranty and no maintenance service contract exists, the unit will advise customers on how to handle the issue and prepare a replacement plan along with a quotation as soon as possible.

Step 4:

• Implement repairs to resolve issues. Ensure that equipment returns to normal operation.
• When encountering an operational failure in the system, the maintenance unit first checks for error codes displayed on the control panel. They then compare these codes with an error code list to identify and rectify the problem.
• Some common issues may include:

Step 5:

• The technical team continues to monitor and adjust to ensure stable equipment operation.
• The warranty-maintenance unit prepares a repair report and acceptance document. They record information into device tracking logs.

Some standards that need to be met for accepting maintenance work include:

• The structural system must be stable and secure.
• The drive system operates smoothly without unusual noises.
• Compliance with important criteria according to inspection templates.

After each maintenance session for the parking system, Viet Chao’s warranty-maintenance department will create a working document detailing project status, reasons for intervention, proposed solutions for maintenance, and obtain signatures from both parties. This process enhances transparency, protects both parties’ rights, and improves management efficiency for parking lots.

  • System lifespan: Older parking lots have older equipment that poses higher risks of malfunctioning leading to increased repair or replacement costs.
  • Structure and type of parking systems: Fully automated parking systems will have higher maintenance costs compared to mechanical systems. Furthermore, systems using many high-tech devices with complex features require technicians with higher expertise which also increases costs.
