Enable Preventive Maintenance: Indicates whether or not you want to include any preventive maintenance work that is done for the spare part(s) in the calculations of the Monte Carlo simulation. When you select this check box, the analysis results will include a calculation of the preventive maintenance cost based on the values that you specify in the Preventive Maintenance section.
Time-based Replacement Interval: The operational time between subsequent planned maintenance activities. This box becomes enabled only if you selected the Enable Preventive Maintenance check box. The list to the right of the Time-based Replacement Interval field lets you define the unit of measure for the specified period of time. By default, Days is selected as the unit of measure.
Labor Cost($): The cost of labor for each time the maintenance work is performed on the spare part(s). This option is enabled only if you select the Enable Preventive Maintenance check box.
Downtime: The amount of time that the piece of equipment is not functional during the preventive maintenance work. When you run the Monte Carlo simulation, the GE Digital APM system will use this value and the values that you specify in the Variable Lost Production Cost Rate and # of Required Spares boxes in the Failure Consequence section to calculate the cost of the preventive maintenance activity. The list to the right of the Downtime field lets you define the unit of measure for the specified period of time. By default, Days is selected as the unit of measure.
