The network of water production to supply Bangkok, Nonthaburi, and Samutprakarn, with 6,300,000 cubic meters per day, found raw water quality problems from saltwater encroachment, poor-quality water, and clogged algae. problems affected the water plants cannot produce water with total planned. The Mahasawat water treatment plant has no problems with raw water quality. that is necessary to maintain the stability of the water supply process. Recently, there is a growing issue of machinery damage that diminishes capacity of the water production process. This research demonstrated the improvement of machinery availability for water filtration in the water production process. This research was investigated the cause of machine damage, the relationship between machine damage and the six big losses in each system of the water filtration and determined, the equation for the capacity and improved approach. The results showed that the machinery capacity of the water filtration process increased by 0.30%, 1.29%, 1.97%, and 4.95%, and the water production capacity increased by 9,401.55 cubic meters/day, 12,675.18 cubic meters/day, 15,041.94 cubic meters/day, and 23,290.99 cubic meters/day.
