Elaboración de un plan de mantenimiento preventivo de una caldera Pirotubular de 100 BHP para el Hospital de Atención Integral del Adulto Mayor en la ciudad de Quito-Ecuador

Abstract

At the present degree work, a preventive maintenance plan (PMP) of a 100 BHP pyro-tubular boiler for the HAIAM (Hospital de Atención Integral del Adulto Mayor) located in the capital of Ecuador is presented. By directly addressing the analysis of the current state of the pyro-tubular boiler at HAIAM, with emphasis on the area of operation and maintenance, it was possible to detect the multiple technical and structural failures that the boiler maintains, as well as the lack of a suitable space for the boiler to be safe during operation. These answers were obtained using the Failure and Effect Maintenance Analysis (FMEA) to assess the severity, frequency, and detectability of the failures that the boiler presented together with a risk priority index. For this reason, it has been proposed the creation of a detailed preventive maintenance plan (PMP) with its respective documentation, such as work orders, maintenance sheets, and control boards, to obtain a better operational performance of the machine, correct maintenance process, and proper control of their equipment, this brings with it implications of efficiency in time and resources of the hospital. Finally, a referential budget analysis was performed for the PMP, which presents the details of the needs and primary requirements for executing its maintenance plan during the year; this plan must be entered into the system (SERCOP) and comply with all necessary procedures.
