RCM Analysis of Process Equipment: A Case Study on Heat Exchanger

The traditional approach of maintenance emphasis on individual equipment. This practice has caused a number of problems. Among the problems are the maintenance actions are conservative in nature, thinking failure of parts are equals and performing maintenance actions to become totally reactive. Reli...
