Equipment Category & Type Explainer Video
0:06
Welcome to this Application Explainer video, part of our SLM Global topic range.
0:11
In this video, we’ll cover the subject of equipment category and types within SLM.
0:17
Within the SLM Global module, users will need to define the different categories and types of the major process equipment.
0:28
Within the SLM system, users can define specific pieces of major process equipment and house them within the system and relate them to other objects.
0:39
Now within the SLM system, we need to build a definition for the different categories and types of that major process equipment.
0:47
So at the site level or at the enterprise level, we can go to the standard Process Deviation tab and underneath the standard process deviation list, there is another table here for the different equipment types template.
1:03
And from here we can select a different category and type for different pieces of major process equipment like boilers, compressors, whatever it may be.
1:13
We can simply add new ones by adding a new category.
1:18
It’s an open text field, so we can type in there.
1:20
We can then type in the type of equipment and they will be stored in here.
1:26
Now, from the enterprise object, we can simply hit the Sync across Sites button.
1:31
That will simply push down the equipment categories and types to all the different site levels so that the equipment within those sites can be using these classifications.
1:41
Now within a site level object, we can go to the same standard process deviations tab and again, we’ll be able to look at the different pieces of equipment here and we’ll be able to understand what deviations may apply to those different pieces of equipment for linkage.
1:57
So a boiler fire tube, does it have low flow, higher flow, no flow, reverse flow?
2:03
We can simply click in here and save.
2:06
This will automatically then associate the equipment with those different types of process deviations when you’re facilitating your HAZOP study.
2:15
Now on the pieces of equipment, as you build them out, you’ll be able to edit information around them like their ID number, equipment name, physical equipment name.
2:25
But then the fields of category and type will be filled in and you can select from the drop down of the different pieces of major equipment that you have from that standard list that’s set up at the site level and the enterprise level.
2:37
So that is how you manage different categories and types for your major process equipment and how you can create that equipment and assign those categories and types to them.
