GENERIC EQUIPMENT LIST

U

se the following generic equipment list as the starting point for your plant’s equipment list. This list uses six to seven digits to specify equipment. The first three digits (XXX-XXXX) represent common equipment types, such as boilers or curing ovens or air-handling units. The last three or four digits (XXX-XXXX) represent sequentially numbered pieces of equipment. This numbering method provides a simple way of categorizing your equipment and can be easily communicated. It also allows you to develop equipment trends and should help during data entry when setting up your computerized PM system. The numbering system attempts to name and number common equipment while setting up a structure for naming and numbering process-specific equipment. The proposed structure for equipment types is: 1XX 2XX 3XX–9XX

To explain how to use this system, I’ll use ‘‘airhandling units’’ as an example. In the proposed generic building equipment list, 165 represents air-handling units. Therefore a plant’s air-handling units would be numbered 165-001, 165-002, and on through 165-999. Please note that not all the pieces of equipment grouped in one type have to have the same basic name: For example, 165-001 might be an ‘‘office air handler’’ and 165009 might be a ‘‘maintenance shop fresh air handler.’’ (They also don’t have to be the same make or model.) Reserve 300–900 for process-specific items. To use these numbers, identify the equipment in the process and establish numbers for each type of equipment. Next, number each piece of equipment sequentially by type, just like in the air-handling unit example. Refer back to Chapter 4 for additional information on developing process-specific equipment numbers. In addition, consider these Helpful Tips: Helpful Tip 1. Don’t fall into the trap of thinking that every process line needs its own three- or four-digit number for each piece of equipment. Develop the numbers based on the equipment’s function rather than make or model. Helpful Tip 2. If you have more than six process areas, then add a digit to the type category. Under these conditions, the equipment number changes from XXXXXXX to XXXX-XXXX. However, before taking this step, analyze whether you truly have too many process areas or have failed to categorize equipment types properly.
