Abstract

Preventive maintenance is essential to guarantee the reliability of the safety instrumented systems in the process industry. The safety integrity level of the safety instrumented systems is evaluated based on the probability of failure on demand, which is significantly influenced by preventive maintenance. In this paper, we give an approach to optimize the schedule of the preventive maintenance for the safety instrumented systems, which considers not only the time instants but also the sequence of the maintenance schedule. The basic idea is to discretize the continuous-time Markov model from the viewpoint of maintenance and then reformulate the problem as a mixed-integer programming problem. Examples are given to illustrate the proposed approach.
