Manufacturers struggle with unplanned downtime and inability to maintain planned production rates, as well as safety and environmental incidents. All are serious problems, often caused by recurring equipment failures. The visual surveillance and inspection of assets is a critical element to assessing the condition of the asset and avoiding equipment failures. In addition, many inspection programs are mandated by regulatory agencies that can levy significant fines for non-compliance.
Meridium's Inspection Management module provides the capabilities to drive large- scale inspection programs and ensure statutory compliance. Inspection Management allows asset owners and operators to manage inspection plans, document the condition of an asset and track inspection recommendations to closure. Features of Meridium Inspection Management include: - Visual Inspection Planning and Scheduling
- Recommendations Management
- User-Definable Inspection Workflow
- Equipment Inspection Profiles
- Inspection Alerts
- Roles/Task Assignments
- Inspector Qualification Documentation
- Inspection Reports
Inspection Management supports any type of visual or monitoring inspection activity and can be configured and extended for specific inspections required by your organization. Some examples of inspection types currently managed in Meridium's Inspection Management include, but are not limited to: - Electrical Substation Inspections
- Equipment Commissioning
- Fixed Equipment Inspections
- Rotating Equipment Inspections
- Electrical Equipment Inspections
- Circuit Breaker Tests
- Electrical Transformer Oil Analyses
- Relay Tests
- Battery Charger Tests
- Heat Exchanger Tube and Tube Bundle Inspections
- Pressure Test Inspections
- Pressure Relief Valve Inspections
- General Valve Inspections
- Safety Integrity System (SIS) Proof Tests
As an integrated component of the APM suite, Inspection Management provides the methodology for program execution as well as key capabilities to optimize the inspection program through risk assessments and analytical evaluation of equipment performance and condition.
