Four Pillars of Condition Monitoring

The condition monitoring also known as Dynamic Predictive Maintenance is composed of several functional aspects on which the maintenance is carried out. However there are four important schematic and functional steps observed in any implementation of condition monitoring activity. These functional aspects are often called four pillars of Condition Monitoring. These are following:

• Detection,
• Diagnosis,
• Prognosis, and
• Programme

 [A Dynamic Predictive Maintenance, the other name of CBM can be simplified by the two letters twice viz. DDPP - Detection, Diagnosis, Prognosis and Programme.].
