this unit a learner will:

Assessment criteria for pass

The learner can:

LO1 Understand the concepts of

condition monitoring

1.1 describe the causes of failure and breakdown in plant

and equipment and explain the use of statistical data for

analysing such failure/breakdown

1.2 describe plant and machinery monitoring arrangements

and explain the relative merits of each arrangement

1.3 provide a computer data analysis printout of machine

operating parameters

1.4 explain how condition monitoring may be integrated

within normal plant and machinery, control and data

acquisition systems

LO2 Understand the nature and

use of condition monitoring

techniques

2.1 explain the nature of the condition monitoring

techniques used to monitor temperature and vibration

and to detect leakage, corrosion and cracks
