Description
Reliability-Centered Maintenance provides valuable insights into current preventive maintenance practices and issues, while explaining
how a transition from the current "preserve equipment" to "preserve function" mindset is the key ingredient in a maintenance optimization
strategy. This book defines the four principal features of RCM and describes the nine essential steps to achieving a successful RCM program.
There is an easy to follow example illustrating the Classical RCM systems analysis process using the water treatment system for a swimming
pool. As well as the use of software in the system analysis process, making a specific recommendation on a software product to use. Additionally,
this new edition possesses an appendix devoted to discussing an economic model that has been used successfully to decide the most cost
effective use of maintenance.
Top Level managers, engineers, and especially technicians who rely on PM programs in their plant operations
can't afford to miss this inclusive guide to Reliability-Centered Maintenance.
Audience
Manager, engineers, and technicians directly responsible for and/or invloved with complex plant and system maintenance.
Students and
consultants practicing industrial engineering, managment, and maintenance.
