Rescheduling Planned Maintenance Meters

Rescheduling Planned Maintenance Meters

Rescheduling Meters

Even if you have a well laid out maintenance plan/ strategy, you might still find yourself in a situation where you need to defer your planned work due to operational requirements and capacity within your maintenance team. This is what Fracttal's work queue allows you to do. Plan, schedule or even reschedule maintenance work that was triggered by the system or added to the queue by a user. However, when your maintenance plans are triggered by meter readings manually/ automatically fed into the system and you want to avoid these jobs going into your work queue, there is a way that you can reschedule the PM trigger of the meter without having to adjust the maintenance plan's meter frequency/ interval.

As far as possible one should avoid re-setting a meter to adjust your PM trigger. A meter should only be re-set when it is linked to a component/ rotating asset that has changed fitment position e.g. a Pump Motor (rotating asset/ component) was removed from Pump-Set A and later reinstalled on Pump Set B once it has been repaired/ refurbished. At this point/ upon recording this move in the system, you would re-set the motor's meter as it will now be linked to the meter of Pump Set B.

If you want to re-set/ reschedule the trigger threshold of the PM a specific meter is linked to, the video below explains how this is done on a meter level:
