Answer
A- The PF (Potential Failure) curve represent the time interval b/w the first detectable sign of potential failure
(Point P) & the functional failure (Point F), emphasizing the window for preventive action.
- It graphs the condition or health of an asset over time
- Point P (Potential Failure)
• This marks the earliest point at which a failure can be detected by monitoring or inspect
• At this stage, the asset starts showing symptoms or deviants from normal operation, such as unusual
noise, vibrant, temp changes or perfrmce drop
- Point F (Functnl Failure)
• This is the point where the asset no longer meet its intended functn or performance standards.
