Monitoring field device health and process interface conditions online, PRM enables the maintenance engineer to minimize breakdown maintenance as well as preventive maintenance. Quick on-line diagnosis reduces unnecessary field inspection while condition-based maintenance minimizes plant downtime, both planned and unplanned.

Maintenance personnel must keep the entire plant in good shape, managing both automation assets and production assets for maximum uptime. PRM supports open technologies such as OPC, Foundation fieldbus and FDT/DTM to better integrate innovative diagnostics solutions from best-in-class third party suppliers.

Providing quick on-line access to automation assets right from the project phase, Yokogawa PRM ensures fast commissioning and startup. Once operation begins, PRM helps maintenance personnel to integrate diagnostics information and execute predictive maintenance.     More about PRM
