what is the difference between (PMS) Planned maintenance system and Preventative main? What is Alternative Main?
- PMS- is a paper or software based system which allows operators to carry out maintenance in intervals in accordance with the manufacturers requirements.
The primary goal is to avoid or mitigate the consequences of failure of equipment. - Preventative Maintenance required for all equipment and standard boats to detect failure.
Inspecting, cleaning, reconditioning. - Alternative Main- improves systems performance by changing configurations to meet environmental, safety,+ operational or economic requirements.
What is Asphyxiation?
when removing water and oily waste from a compartment, the suction created by an eductor can also remove the air supply to a compartment. Using an eductor to take suction on a space that does not have adequate ventilation (air supply) can cause asphyxiation (death) of persons in the compartment.
what is Inadvertent Flooding?
Installed eductors are operated by water pressure from the firemain. Improper valve alignment and insufficient firemain pressure may cause an eductor to operate in reverse and flood (not dewater) the compartment.
