Optimal component replacement decisions using vibration monitoring and the proportional-hazards model

TLDR
The Weibull proportional-hazards model is used to determine the optimal replacement policy for a critical item which is subject to vibration monitoring, and the policy is validated using data that arose from subsequent operation of the plant.
Abstract
This paper describes a case study in which the Weibull proportional-hazards model is used to determine the optimal replacement policy for a critical item which is subject to vibration monitoring. Such an approach has been used to date in the context of monitoring through oil debris analysis, and this approach is extended in this paper to the vibration monitoring context. The Weibull proportional-hazards model is reviewed along with the software EXAKT used for optimization. In particular the case considers condition-based maintenance for circulating pumps in a coal wash plant that is part of the SASOL petrochemical company. The condition-based maintenance policy recommended in this study is based on histories collected over a period of 2 years, and is compared with current practice. The policy is validated using data that arose from subsequent operation of the plant.
