What condition would trigger compressed air leak survey instead of the calendar?

Compressor load hours during non-production time rising (leak load), or flow meter reading during a shutdown above the baseline

What evidence does compressed air leak survey produce for an ISO 55001 or ISO 45001 audit?

No-demand flow or load trend and the survey findings with each leak tagged and repaired

Compressed air leak survey

Q: Can compressed air leak survey move from a fixed interval to a condition-based check?

Convertible: a monitored condition can replace the fixed interval. Leaks are a flow at 3 a.m. when nothing is running, and the compressor controller records it. Survey when the 3 a.m. flow rises, not annually.

What does a compressed air leak survey involve?

Compressed air leak survey checks: compressor load percentage during non-production, system flow at no demand, leak count and estimated flow from the survey. Observed by compressor controller load data; flow meter on the main; ultrasonic detector for the survey. The interval: a monitored condition can replace the fixed interval.

Condition that replaces the interval: Compressor load hours during non-production time rising (leak load), or flow meter reading during a shutdown above the baseline
Reading that proves it: Compressor load percentage during non-production, system flow at no demand, leak count and estimated flow from the survey
Evidence an auditor accepts: No-demand flow or load trend and the survey findings with each leak tagged and repaired
First move: Pull the compressor load profile for a weekend; the load with no production is the leak rate.

ISO 55001:2014 9.1 Monitoring, measurement, analysis and evaluation

The organization decides what is to be monitored and measured, which methods of monitoring, measurement, analysis and evaluation will give valid results, when monitoring and measuring take place, and when results are analysed and evaluated. It assesses and reports on how the assets perform, on how asset management perf...

ISO 55001:2014 8.1 Operational planning and control

The organization plans, carries out and controls the processes needed to satisfy requirements and to deliver three things: the asset management plans set out under 6.2, the actions on risks and opportunities decided under 6.1, and the preventive and corrective actions decided under clauses 10.1 and 10.2. It does so by ...

Evidence an auditor accepts: Procedures and work instructions for life-cycle activities (acquire, operate, maintain, renew, dispose); Process criteria and performance measures; Work records demonstrating activities carried out as planned

ISO 55001:2014 6.2.2 Planning to achieve asset management objectives

The organization joins up its planning for asset management objectives with the rest of its planning, including finance, human resources and other support functions. It sets up, documents and maintains asset management plans that state the method and criteria for making decisions, the processes and methods for managing...

Evidence an auditor accepts: Asset management plans per asset class or system with activities, resources, owners and dates; Documented decision-making method and criteria for prioritising activities; Life-cycle cost or whole-of-life models supporting the plans

ISO 55001:2014 8.2 Management of change

Before any planned change is made, whether temporary or permanent, that could affect whether the asset management objectives are met, its risks are assessed, and the organization makes sure those risks are handled as 6.1 and 6.2.2 require. It controls changes it has planned and reviews the consequences of changes that ...
