MTTF

Faris_Alsaedi

Hey, I am a beginner, I am trying to use it to help estimate and record MTBF, MTTF ... etc. the idea that I have is to build a calculated tag that is linked to the circuit breaker or equipment speed, and the output of that is either 1 or 0. then if the equipment is standby status I would change from 0 to 1. as result, we will be able to estimate the availability and reliability of any given equipment.

 

is this the easiest, fastest, and most reliable way? or there is a better solution.

 

regards

  • I would agree with (Missing Content)​.

    In your question you ask "easiest, fastest and most reliable way?"

    I would say yes to Easiest and Fastest, but I would say No to most reliable. As you don't get any detail into the type or reason of the failure. In fact you can only say that it is not running, you cannot determine if it was a planned stoppage or a breakdown.

     

    For a more reliable solution to calculate KPIs such as MTBF, MTTR, Availability and Reliability, there are more involved solutions. One that I have experience with is RtDuet, a downtime tracking software that is built on the PI system. RtDuet from RtTech Software

    Does that give you essentially a manual interface to support operators entering in outage information and such? In general its the only way to capture it, you cant rely on info from the maintenance system much either unless things are really rigourous
