5. Agitator FailureCost Analysis:
i. Additional cost to Business due to failure =1.3 Million
ii. Cost to prevent failure=$10000
Causal Factor:
i. Aging equipment
ii. Lack of predictive maintenance
iii. torque limiting setting was set too low during gear box
replacement which caused pre-mature clutch top limiterreplacement which caused pre-mature clutch top limiter
slipping which generated heat and caused the high speed
coupling to fail
Preventive Action:
i. Temperature monitoring of Gearboxes and motor
ii. Vibration check and analysis program
iii. Lubrication test and analysis program

7. Repair
• Repair – run to failure, is suitable for small
items which are non critical,
inconsequential, unlikely to fail and
redundant.
• For critical equipments and parts is not an• For critical equipments and parts is not an
option.
• When Stakes are high Repair is not an
option

• Is based on predictive testing, monitoring and
inspection.
• It is suitable for critical equipment which has

19. Reliability Centered Maintenance
• Reliability Centered Maintenance (RCM) is a
maintenance strategy that is implemented to optimize
the maintenance program of a company or facility using
cost-effective maintenance techniques.
• There are four principles that are critical for an RCM• There are four principles that are critical for an RCM
program.
The primary objective is to preserve system function
Identify failure modes that can affect the system function
Prioritize the failure modes
Select applicable and effective tasks to control the failure
modes
