FMEA Definition
• IEC- 60182 defines FMEA as a systematic procedure for the analysis of a system
whose target is the identification of the potential failure modes, their causes and
effects on system performance. It is a bottom up failure analysis method that
highlights common failure causes of the system and provides a rank for each failure
mode related to element importance. It considers system parts and/or functions that
are most likely to fail.

The FMEA includes
• A list of equipment failure modes
• The causes of these failures
• Local effects that refer to the consequences of each possible failure on the
system element
• Final effects that describe the impact of that possible failure on the whole
system

Criticality Analysis
• A critically analysis (CA) assigns a Risk Priority Number (RPN) to each failure
mode. The RPN is calculated using the formula.
RPN = S × O × D
• S (Severity) represents the assessment of the worst potential consequences
resulting from an item failure
• O (Occurrence) denotes the probability of failure mode occurrence
• D (Detection) represents the chance to identify and eliminate the failure before
the system or people are affected.
