Failure Modes and Effects
Analysis
 is a methodology that
documents the manners in
which an asset can fail, as
well as the consequences
of each failure with regard
to production and safety.
Use of FMEA
• is to Identify the Asset Criticality
Ranking
What is Asset Criticality
Ranking?
Numeric rank of an asset with
respect to its importance to safety
and production; based on the
likelihood of a failure mode to occur,
as well as on the effects of the failure
and costs to repair
SCOPE OF ASSET
CRITICALITY RANKING
 is to provide the means
necessary to determine the
criticality of rotating equipment
and other assets with respect to the
asset’s importance to safety, the
environment and production
FMEA Methodology
1 All the possible failure modes for an
equipment is identified
2 Risk Priority Number is calculated for each
failure mode and equipment as a whole
3 All possible PM tasks for each failure mode
is identified with man-hour requirement
4 Failure Mode – PM Task matrix is
developed
5 PM tasks are selected to cover more than 70
% of risk assessed with optimum man-hour
requirement
FMEA - RPN
Calculation of Risk Priority
Number for the purpose of
criticality assessment.
Factors
 Likelihood of Failure
 Severity of the failure effects
 Cost to repair

Functional Failure
• Failure that results in the loss of an
asset’s ability to perform its intended
function at its desired level of
performance. A functional failure may
be a failure that results in a complete, or
partial, loss of asset performance.
Failure Mode
 Manner in which a functional
failure is realized; may or may
not be the root cause of the
functional failure. A functional
failure can possess one or more
failure modes.
 Failure modes should be based
on those that are plausible, or
most likely to occur, based on
the past history of the
component.

Likelihood of Failure
LIKELIHOOD CRITERIA
1
REMOTE: Failure is unlikely to occur
No evidence (i.e. work order) of prior occurrence; staff unaware of
it occurring on any similar piece of equipment.
2
LOW: Relatively few failures
Evidence (i.e. work order) of prior occurrence; staff aware of this
occurring on a similar piece of equipment, but not on the specific
equipment being analyzed, and the conditions resulting in the
previous failure do not exist in this case.
4
MODERATE: Occasional failures
Evidence (i.e. work order) of this failure mechanism with
occasional occurrence; staff aware that this failure mechanism
has occurred several times in the past.
8
HIGH: Repeated failures
Evidence (i.e. work order) of prior repeated occurrences; staff
aware that this failure mechanism has occurred many times in the
past.
10
VERY HIGH: Failure is almost inevitable
Evidence (i.e. work order) of continuous occurrence; staff aware
that this failure mechanism has occurred many times in the past.
Failure Effects
• The consequences of a
functional failure of an installed
asset. Failure effects are usually
described in terms of impact on
the asset, process, production,
and safety or environmental
issues.
Each failure mode may have more than one failure
effect. Identify all applicable failure effects for each
failure mode by inserting the proper weighting factor in
the appropriate column.

Determination of Critical Asset
Ranking
To determine the equipment criticality, list
out all the equipment's in the ascending form
depending upon their RPN value calculated
through failure mode criticality analysis
Prepare a bar chart using FEMA NO: in the
x axis and the risk priority no. in the y axis
Identify/classify the equipment's under three
categories viz. Most critical, critical and least
critical in the above chart.
