C. Equipment Reliability: Score Description 0 1 2

This document provides guidelines for scoring equipment criticality based on reliability and utilization. For reliability, equipment is scored from 1 to 4 based on its condition and mean time between failures or to repair. A score of 0 was removed to allow keeping obsolete backup equipment. Utilization is scored from 0 to 2 based on the equipment's usage rate, with 0 being 100% saturated and unable to compensate for downtime, and 2 being medium usage between 80-90% that can tolerate some increased use. The document leaves determining appropriate time limits for mean time to repair up to plant reliability engineers.

c. Equipment Reliability

Equipment Reliability scoring guidelines are as follows:

Score Description

0 N/A

1 Equipment is obsolete, OR has a large Mean Time To Repair (MTTR > xx


weeks)

2 Equipment to be refurbished, OR has a moderate Mean Time To Repair


(xx ≤ MTTR < xy weeks)

3 Equipment is in good condition AND has a MTBF within the best practices
guidelines

4 Equipment is new in excellent condition AND has a MTBF within the best
practices guidelines

A score of zero ‘0’ was removed from Equipment Reliability scoring


guidelines to avoid flagging certain old and obsolete equipment that might
be kept by plant’s management as a back-up system in case of unexpected
failures of certain equipment.
Note: It is left up to the plant personnel in general and more particular up to the
reliability engineer to define the appropriate time limits for scoring
equipment MTTR.

d. Equipment Utilization

Equipment Capacity Utilization scoring guidelines are as follows:

Score Description

0 Equipment utilization is saturated and there is no possibility to


compensate for any unscheduled downtime (Util. Rate ~ 100%).

1 Equipment utilization is high and there is possibility to compensate for


minor unscheduled downtime by increasing the utilization of the available
capacity (Util. Rate>90%).

2 Equipment utilization is medium and there is possibility to compensate


for a moderate unscheduled downtime by increasing the utilization of the
available capacity (80 %< Util. Rate ≤90%).
