Learn how Redlist can help build a world‑class condition monitoring and reliability program that actually delivers results on uptime, safety, and cost.
In this recorded workshop, a veteran reliability leader (35+ years in ExxonMobil and the paper industry) breaks down how to design, implement, and sustain condition‑based monitoring as part of Reliability Centered Maintenance (RCM). Through real‑world examples from mills, mines, and industrial plants, he shows what works, what doesn’t, and how to move beyond “shiny tools” to a culture and system that consistently prevents failures.
You’ll see how to connect technologies like vibration analysis, oil analysis, thermography, ultrasonics, motion amplification, electrical signature analysis, alignment, and balancing with FMEA, root cause analysis (RCA/RCFA), and the DPF curve (Design–Installation–Potential Failure–Failure). You’ll also learn how to integrate online sensors and IIoT with your CMMS / work management system so condition data automatically triggers the right work, at the right time.
Whether you’re just starting with predictive maintenance or looking to optimize an existing program, this session will help you close the loop from data to decisions to documented value.
Key topics covered:
- What condition monitoring really is and how it fits into RCM and FMEA
- Using the DPF (design–installation–PF) curve to extend asset life
- Choosing and combining technologies:
- Vibration analysis (offline and online)
- Oil / lubricant analysis
- Thermography and ultrasonics
- Motion amplification
- Electrical signature analysis & power quality
- NDT, alignment, balancing, strain checks, and visual inspections
- Online vs. route‑based (walk‑around) monitoring: when each makes sense
- Setting effective alarm strategies (absolute, trend, and machine‑learning based)
- Avoiding common pitfalls: poor sensor placement, bad sampling, wrong settings
- Using operational data (pressure, flow, temperature, speed) as condition indicators
- How to “look at the dead body”: doing RCFA that actually changes future failures
- Building the foundations: leadership, culture, management systems, and standards
- Skills, training, and certification for technicians, supervisors, and engineers
- Integrating condition data with CMMS/ERP to auto‑generate and close the right work orders
- Measuring value: leading/lagging KPIs, criticality ranking, and continuous improvement loops
Ideal for:
- Maintenance and reliability engineers
- Maintenance managers and supervisors
- Operations leaders and plant managers
- Reliability consultants and analysts
- Anyone responsible for uptime, asset health, and maintenance costs in industrial plants
Use this session as a practical roadmap to design, implement, and continually improve a condition‑based maintenance program that is technically sound, culturally supported, and financially justified.
