Reliability Centered Maintenance

Definition

y

DefinitionReliability Centered Maintenance (RCM) is a systematicprocess used to determine what has to be accomplished toensure that any physical facility is able to continuously meet itsdesigned functions in its current operating context.

RCM l d t i t th t f tiRCM leads to a maintenance program that focuses preventivemaintenance (PM) on specific failure modes likely to occur.

RCM has been so named to emphasize the role that reliabilityRCM has been so named to emphasize the role that reliabilitytheory and practice plays in properly focusing (centering)preventive maintenance activities on the retention of

i ’ i h d i li biliequipment’s inherent design reliability.

Goals

y

GoalsTo develop design-associated priorities that can facilitate PM.

To gather information useful for improving the design of itemsTo gather information useful for improving the design of items.

To develop PM-related tasks that can reinstate reliability and safety to their inherent levels in the event of equipment or safety to their inherent levels in the event of equipment or system deterioration.

To achieve the above goals when the total cost is minimalTo achieve the above goals when the total cost is minimal.

Principals

y

PrincipalsRCM is system/equipment focused.

RCM is reliability centeredRCM is reliability-centered.

Safety and economics drive RCM.

RCM is function-oriented.

Design limitations are acknowledged by RCM.g g y

An unsatisfactory condition is defined as a failure by RCM.

6


Questions

y

QuestionsAny RCM process should ensure that all of the followingquestions are answered effectively as per their sequence:

What are the functions and associated expected levels of the facility performance in its current operating context?How might it fail to meet its assigned functions?How might it fail to meet its assigned functions?What are the reasons for each functional failure or failure mode?What are the effects of each failure?How does each failure matter?What remedial measures should be taken to prevent or predict each failure?each failure?What measures should be taken in the event of not finding a suitable proactive task?

Steps

Failure Mode and Effect Analysis

y


Failure mode and effect analysis (FMEA) is anFailure mode and effect analysis (FMEA) is an

engineering technique used to define, identify, and

li i t k d/ t ti l bleliminate known and/or potential problems, errors,

and so on from the system, design, process, and/or

service before they reach the customer.

11



y


FMEA is a systemic methodology intended to

Identify and recognize potential failures including theircauses and effects

E l t d i iti id tifi d f il d iEvaluate and prioritize identified failure modes sincefailures are not created equal

Identify and suggest actions that can eliminate or reduce theIdentify and suggest actions that can eliminate or reduce thechance of the potential failures from occurring

12



y

Failure Mode and Effect AnalysisIdeally, FMEAs are conducted in the product design or processdevelopment stages.

However, conducting them on existing products and processesmay also yield benefits such as in RCM to develop an effectivepreventive maintenance program.

Identifying known and potential failure modes is an important task in FMEA.

13



y

Failure Mode and Effect AnalysisUsing data and knowledge of the process or product, each potential failure mode and effect is rated in each of the following three factors:

Severity: the consequence of the failure when it happens

Occurrence: the probability or frequency of the failure occurring

Detection: the probability of the failure being detected before the impact of the effect is realizedbefore the impact of the effect is realized

14



y

Failure Mode and Effect AnalysisThen these three factors are combined in one number called the risk priority number (RPN) to reflect the priority of the failure modes identified.

Failure Mode and Effect AnalysisProcess

Select a high-risk process.

Review the process.

Brainstorm potential failure modes.

Identify the root causes of failure modes.Identify the root causes of failure modes.

List potential effects of each failure mode.

Assign severity, occurrence, and detection ratings for each effect.

C l l h i k i i b (RPN) f h ffCalculate the risk priority number (RPN) for each effect.

Prioritize the failure modes for action using RPN.

Take action to eliminate or reduce the high-risk failure modes.

Calculate the Resulting RPN as the failure modes are reduced or eliminated as a mean of monitoring the redesigned improved product or process.

Failure Mode and Effect AnalysisDeficiencies of RPNGaps in the ranges: 88% of the range is empty, only 120 of 1000 numbersare generated

Duplicate RPNs: for several combinations where different factors lead to thesame RPNN

Sensitivity to small changes: a small change in one factor has a much largereffect when the other factors are larger than when they are small (example:9x9x3 = 243 and 9x9x4 =324 versus 3x4x3 = 36 and 3x4x4=48)9x9x3 = 243, and 9x9x4 =324 versus 3x4x3 = 36 and 3x4x4=48)

Inadequate scaling: the ratios on occurrence table are not proportional orlinear; e.g. the ratio can be 2, 2.5 or 5 between the two consecutive ratings

24



y

Failure Mode and Effect AnalysisDeficiencies of RPNInadequate scale of RPN.

The differences in RPN number might appear negligible while in fact significant.

An example would be: the values: S = 6, O = 4, D = 2, would produce an RPN = 48,while S = 6, O = 5, and D = 2 would produce RPN = 60.

The second RPN is not twice the first number, while in fact O = 5 is twice the probabilityof occurrence with O = 4.

Therefore the RPN numbers should not be compared linearly.
