Development of a New Type of Maintenance Management System Based on Reliability for Rotating Equipments in Typical Petrochemical Plant

Currently the reliability of rotating equipments in typical petrochemical plants, such as turbo machineries, centrifugal compressors, reciprocating compressors, fans, pumps, etc. plays an important role in a long-term operation of the plants. The important tasks for management technology research of rotating equipments are to build a new type of maintenance management platform and take an advantage of the reliability analysis technique for fault diagnosis and maintenance strategy optimization. In this paper, firstly, the development of maintenance management technology in China and overseas was introduced. The problems of traditional reliability analysis techniques were pointed out. Secondly, the key technologies of the new type of maintenance management system were introduced. Furthermore, the structure and work process of the new type of maintenance management system were proposed. Finally, the key contents and functions of this system were given.
