Applying PAS-55 Principles – Water Wastewater Case Study

The British Standards Institute's Publicly Available Specification 55 (PAS-55) provides organizations with a framework for establishing good practices in asset management.

A significant portion of the specification covers the mitigation of risk as well as maintenance and reliability strategies. APG will walk attendees through the application of fundamental reliability principles at an actual water wastewater organization in an application aligned with PAS-55 requirements.

Participate to discover:

* PAS-55 requires risk management practices and formalized maintenance and reliability strategies

* Current best practices around reliability and maintenance strategy development comply with PAS-55 requirements

* Practical implementation pointers for PAS-55 aligned reliability practices

Asset Criticality – The Foundation of Best in Class Reliability

A 51 minute recorded web workshop playback on demand by Rod Acklin, Commtest

Starting or even re-engineering a reliability centered operation can be a daunting challenge. Essential to the success of your initiative is a meaningful assessment criticality for your installed asset base.

Join Commtest's Rod Acklin as he explores and guides you through how to assess meaningful asset criticality.

View this web workshop to learn:

1) Why is a meaningful criticality assessment important?

2) The essential elements of criticality

3) Applying resources based on the essential elements of criticality

Augmented Reality for Maintenance and Repair

As part of exploration into the potential benefits of using AR for maintenance and repair, this group designed, implemented, and user tested a prototype augmented reality application to support military mechanics conducting routine maintenance tasks inside an armored vehicle turret.

This prototype uses a tracked head-worn display to augment a mechanics natural view with text, labels, arrows, and animated sequences designed to facilitate task comprehension, location, and execution. A within-subject controlled user study examined professional military mechanics using the system to complete 18 common tasks under field conditions. These tasks included installing and removing fasteners and indicator lights, and connecting cables, all within the cramped interior of an armored personnel carrier turret. An augmented reality condition was tested against two baseline conditions: an untracked head-worn display with text and graphics and a fixed flat panel display representing an improved version of the laptop-based documentation currently employed in practice.

The augmented reality condition allowed mechanics to locate tasks more quickly than when using either baseline, and in some instances, resulted in less overall head movement. A qualitative survey showed mechanics found the augmented reality condition intuitive and satisfying for the tested sequence of tasks.

Availability Workbench-The Complete Reliability Engineering Toolkit

An hour long Webinar on demand by Jason Ballentine - Principal Engineer, ARMS Reliability

Avoid Asset Failure with Wireless Monitoring

An hour long presentation by James F. Haza, senior sales consultant, Honeywell Process Solutions

Ninety percent of rotating assets in industrial plants are not instrumented due to the high cost of wiring vibration monitoring systems. Today, wireless technology is changing how facilities approach asset management. Plants are now instrumenting their non critical assets with wireless vibration transmitters and self-monitoring intelligent vibration analysis applications.

Avoiding Data Overload in Managing Asset Health

A 40 minute long presentation by Kathy Steel, Ivara Corporation

How much time do you spend collecting equipment condition data, maintaining spreadsheets and developing reports? Still, it often ends up being a little too late to prevent equipment failure. Learn how Ivara EXP Asset Performance Management software provides better visibility to overall asset health. EXP processes condition data from all sources to provide a holistic view of the health of your assets so you can anticipate the onset of failures and make timely and informed proactive maintenance decisions to mitigate risk and the consequences of failure.

Back to Basics ... Time Waveform in PdM

An hour long presentation by Dennis H. Shreve, Senior Staff Engineer, GE Bently Commtest

As frequency data are derived from a transducer providing a raw time waveform electrical signal of the vibration measurement, whether it be a displacement probe, velocity pickup, or an accelerometer, it is worth going back to basics for a moment to see how this raw data can be a big help in analyzing and pinpointing some fundamental vibration issues. This presentation is intended to show the value of retaining a sample of the collected time waveform and to describe how the raw data should be properly collected and analyzed. This additional information will help one to arrive at a solid PdM strategy for pinpointing and confirming complex vibration problems with a high degree of confidence.

Base Flatness & Machine Alignment

An hour long webinar on demand presented by presented by John Lambert, President and Paul Berberian, National Sales Manager, Alignment Supplies

Stress. If you have it, you need relief. Here's how to get it...

Stress is a killer, not only for people, but also for plant machinery as well. Let's face it; the most important issue in the maintenance process is the machine unit's installation. It comes before vibration, before oil analysis and infra red, even before ultrasonic's. These technologies are used to detect the problems that a poor installation will create. There are many road blocks on the road to a good machinery installation job. This webinar provides information on one of the least known critical problems: Machine stress caused by distorted or twisted bases. We will provide information on how to find it, how to measure it and how to correct it.

Bearing frequencies: What you should know and why you should not rely on them

An hour long presentation by Jason Tranter, Managing Director, Mobius Institute

Detecting rolling element bearing faults is key to success in vibration analysis, and most analysts utilize a database of bearings to know where to look in the spectrum. But did you know that those frequencies may be incorrect? The peaks don't always appear where you expect. In this Webinar we will review the four key frequencies, learn why the peaks will not appear at the calculated frequencies, and learn why the information from your database may be incorrect. We will also explain how to detect bearing faults without these bearing frequencies.

Benchmarking Lubrication Performance

 

A workshop by Jarrod Potteiger, Product & Educational Services Mgr., Des-Case Corporation

The past 20 years has seen a renewed interest in the subject of precision lubrication. Many organizations have come to realize their deficiencies in this area and are scrambling to develop world class programs to stay ahead of the pack. One of the most common problems with these efforts is a lack of direction. After all, just "getting better" is not really a proper game plan. For those who are embarking on this process or like many others, are floundering with it, the best approach may be to take a step back and make a proper assessment of the current program to identify the biggest strengths, weaknesses and opportunities.
