163-FRACAS with Brandon Weil
FRACAS with Brandon Weil
With changing technology in the reliability and maintenance industry, the best practices are always changing in order to improve the overall reliability for the long term. Failure reporting analysis and corrective action system or FRACAS is one of the best tools towards just achieving that goal. It is a process for collecting failure history, analyzing it for patterns, getting to root causes, implementing the corrective actions and then, monitoring the results of those actions. So, it is basically the collection of all the other reliability processes merged into one. In order for this to work, you can’t just rely on the PMs.
In this episode, we covered:
- What is FRACAS?
- How can you use FRACAS effectively?
- How do you start with a FRACAS process?
- And much more!

162-Bearing Isolators with Chris and Woody
Bearing Isolators with Chris and Woody
One of the major reasons of bearing failure is the operating conditions of the machine. That’s why bearing isolators are used to keep the bearing separate from the external environment. It is a type of seal that helps keep bearing and the oil free from contamination. There are several different types of bearing isolators. The major categories are contacting or mechanical—which have been used for rotating equipment for a long time—and non-contacting seals that are used for dynamic purposes and consistent performance. The latter type has a long life because those are not making contact with the equipment.
In this episode, we covered:
- An overview of Bearing Isolators
- The types of bearing isolators
- Other factors you need to focus on aside from analysis
- And much more!
