It is very important to have a preventive maintenance in incubators. The purpose of this is to eliminate the unusual trouble of machine during the incubation period of the egg. Imagine that when the incubation start and if the machine will having trouble during the incubation, it will affect the hatchability of the egg. It depend in the trouble of machine. If the heater failed to heat meaning the machine will become low temperature and will affect the hatchability. If the relay failed to turn off the heater it will become high temperature because of steady turn on off heater. There are may system that can consider to maintain a good condition og machine. The temperature system, humidity system, turning system, ventilation system and alarm system of machine. The temperature system consist of relay that control the heater, the heater itself to give heat, and the temperature sensor. If the temperature system got trouble, sometimes it cannot calibrate the temperature, you can check such component. The humidity system consist of humidifier motor, relay that control the motor the water fan.
