PM-MAINT is a sector/technology-independent maintenance management system for inspection, servicing and maintenance of production plants, and is primarily designed for preventive, performance-dependent maintenance. With the objective of maximizing plant availability, PM‑MAINT uses the performance data or calendar intervals to generate predictive planning of maintenance measures. PM‑MAINT determines the optimum time with regard to production and maintenance. Whereas prematurely conducted inspections and servicing shorten the intervals and thus increase the maintenance costs, and delayed implementation can result in production losses with high repair and downtime costs.

PM-MAINT is linked to the automation level of the process control system via the SIMATIC PCS 7 operator system or per OPC. With its numerous import and export options, it is an ideal supplement for the SIMATIC PCS 7 Maintenance Station.

Note:

The maintenance management system, PM‑MAINT, can be use in plants in combination with SIMATIC PCS 7 V7.1, V8.0, V8.1 and V8.2.
