Appl. No.:
8/901847
Inventors:
Caroline J. Vines - Foxboro MA
Sharath Komarla - Norwood MA

Abstract:
A computerized maintenance management system for the process control environment which integrates a CMMS system with a process control system. The system includes configurator software which allows users to link process control data and maintenance management data using a graphical user interface. Integration provides the ability to identify conditions requiring work order response and to either automatically respond to such conditions or to notify plant operators and engineers of required actions. The integrated system can easily associate work orders, maintenance history and equipment health with operational assets using process control objects such as motors, valves, pumps, alarms, and other device display icons.
