RBI Policies
RBI Policies
An RBI Policy allows you to develop and execute strategies based on historical data and dynamic data, which is obtained by monitoring conditions in real time. The policies used in RBI are categorized as follows:
- Policies used to calculate an analysis
- Policies used to generate recommendations
- Policies used in risk mapping
- Policies used to suggest PDMs
These policies appear in the Module Workflow Policies section of the Policy Designer Overview page.

RBI 581 DM Screening - Thinning and Lining policy follows the below guidelines. If there are adequate measures to eliminate or minimize corrosion you can deselect the suggested PDMs from linking.
| Suggested Thinning DM | Available field in RBI Component | Screening Criteria | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| 581-High Temperature Sulfidic and Naphthenic Acid | Operating Temperature | Operating temperature shall be greater than 400 degrees Fahrenheit | Majority of all Base Materials are suspected. Thus, system is not checking Base Material field. |
| Sulphur Concentration | Process Fluid shall contain sulphur compounds | ||
| 581-High Temperature Oxidation | Operating Temperature | Operating temperature shall be greater than 900 degrees Fahrenheit | |
| Is Air or Oxident Present? | Air or Oxidant shall be present | ||
| 581-Hydrochloric Acid Corrosion | Process Fluid | The representative fluid shall be HCL | |
| Free Water | Presence of Water shall be detected | ||
| pH of Water | Reported pH shall less than 7 | ||
| 581-Hydrofluoric Acid Corrosion | Process Fluid | The representative fluid shall be HF | |
| 581-Sulfuric Acid Corrosion | Process Fluid | The representative fluid shall be H2SO4 (Sulfuric Acid) | |
| 581-Cooling Water Corrosion | Cooling System Type | Presence of a Cooling water system | Defining a Cooling system Type in RBI component shall screen the component for soil side corrosion. |
