For most of the remote maintenance activities of equipment in a hot cell, replacing breakdown modules is preferred over in situ repair because of insufficient space in the cell and the limited operability of remote handling tools. In such cases, the maintenance operation can be decomposed into transport of the new modules to the failed equipment, replacement of the broken modules with new ones, and then transport of the broken parts to the reserved space for further repair or disposal. In this respect, transfer is the most basic operation during remote maintenance, which is also true for the maintenance of pyroprocessing equipment. Hence, this paper proposes a maintenance automation framework for automated pyroprocessing equipment from the standpoint of module transfer. For the maintenance automation framework, maintenance-related functions and events are defined, and they are integrated with the pyroprocess automation framework. The proposed framework is verified by a case study on the maintenance of a large module through a hardware-in-the-loop simulation.

热解自动化框架下设备维护自动化的概念框架

对于热室中设备的大多数远程维护活动，由于单元中的空间不足以及远程处理工具的操作性有限，因此与现场维修相比，更换故障模块更为可取。在这种情况下，维护操作可以分解为将新模块运输到故障设备，用新模块更换损坏的模块，然后将损坏的部件运输到保留的空间以进行进一步维修或处置。在这方面，转移是远程维护期间最基本的操作，对于热加工设备的维护也是如此。因此，本文从模块转移的角度提出了一种自动热解设备的维护自动化框架。对于维护自动化框架，定义了与维护相关的功能和事件，并将它们与高温处理自动化框架集成在一起。通过硬件在环仿真对大型模块进行维护的案例研究验证了所提出的框架。
