What Maintenance Method would you choose for the 4 components below?
The answer is:
Pump= CBM
Motor= CBM
Seal= CBM
Coupling= CBM/FTM
CBM= condition based maintenance is the most cost efficient method when the component has a Failure Developing Period (FDP). Normally the cost to OTB normal cost more due to additional damage and downtime. FTM is also costly due to that you over maintaining the equipment and change out components before the end of their life.
