1. On the SFMEA form provided, list at least two potential functional failures of the subsystem, bearing in mind that each function may have more than one functional failure associated with it. 2. On the SFMEA form provided, list five possible failure modes of components for any one of or all listed functional failures of the conveyor, skipping two lines between each one. (Refer to functional block diagram). Also refer to provided list of failure mode descriptors.

* Adapted from "RCM - Gateway to World Class Maintenance" - Hinchcliffe/Smith 3. For each failure mode listed, input failure effects in the example SFMEA form. 4. For each failure mode listed, list failure causes on SFMEA form. 5. In the absence of real data, enter the following OCC, SEV, and DET numbers for each failure mode in Question 1 and calculate the RPN, given: a. Failure mode 1 OCC = 4; SEV = 5; DET = 1 b. Failure mode 2 OCC = 2; SEV = 3; DET = 3 c. Failure mode 3 OCC = 3; SEV = 3; DET = 5 d. Failure mode 4 OCC = 3; SEV = 5; DET = 5 e. Failure mode 5 OCC = 3; SEV = 3; DET = 4
