## AI Prompt for Predictive Maintenance: Failure Prediction

**Prompt Type:** Dynamic

**Target AI Platforms:** All

**Purpose:** Equipment Maintenance – Failure Prediction

**Prompt Structure:**

This prompt is designed to be adaptable to various data formats and equipment types. Replace the bracketed placeholders with specific information relevant to your equipment and data.

“`
Predict the remaining useful life (RUL) and probability of failure within the next [Time Window – e.g., 24 hours, 7 days, 30 days] for [Equipment Name – e.g., CNC Milling Machine, Pump A, Robot Arm 3] based on the following data:

**Data Input:**

* **Data Format:** [Specify data format – e.g., CSV, JSON, Time Series Database]
* **Data Source:** [Specify data source – e.g., Attached CSV file, API endpoint: [API URL], Database query: [SQL Query]]
* **Data Description:** Provide a detailed description of the provided data, including:
* **Timestamp:** [Format of the timestamp – e.g., YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS, Unix timestamp]
* **Sensor Readings:** List all sensor readings and their units. For example:
* `vibration_x` (mm/s)
* `vibration_y` (mm/s)
* `vibration_z` (mm/s)
* `temperature` (°C)
* `pressure` (bar)
* `current` (A)
* …
* **Operational Data (if applicable):**
* `operating_mode` (Categorical – e.g., Idle, Running, Maintenance)
* `speed` (RPM)
* `load` (%)
* …
* **Historical Maintenance Records (if applicable):**
* `maintenance_date` (YYYY-MM-DD)
* `maintenance_type` (Categorical – e.g., Routine, Repair, Overhaul)
* `component_replaced` (Text)
* …

**Prediction Output:**

* **RUL:** Provide the estimated Remaining Useful Life in [Time Units – e.g., hours, days, cycles]. Express uncertainty using a confidence interval or range (e.g., RUL: 120 ± 20 hours).
* **Probability of Failure:** Provide the probability of failure within the specified [Time Window] as a percentage (e.g., 15%).
* **Failure Mode (if possible):** If possible, predict the most likely failure mode (e.g., Bearing failure, Overheating, Tool wear). Indicate the confidence level of the failure mode prediction.
* **Explanation (Optional but recommended):** Provide a brief explanation of the prediction, highlighting key factors contributing to the predicted RUL and probability of failure. This could include identifying anomalous sensor readings or patterns in the data.

**Assumptions:**

* [Specify any assumptions made about the data or the equipment. For example: “Assume constant operating conditions within the prediction window.”]

**Additional Instructions:**

* If historical maintenance data is provided, consider its impact on the RUL prediction.
* If the data contains missing values, specify how to handle them (e.g., imputation, exclusion).
* Consider external factors that might influence equipment health, such as environmental conditions (temperature, humidity) if data is available.
* If multiple failure modes are possible, prioritize them based on their likelihood and potential impact.

**Example Usage:**

To predict the RUL of a pump within the next 7 days based on sensor data from a CSV file:

“`
Predict the remaining useful life (RUL) and probability of failure within the next 7 days for Pump A based on the following data:

**Data Input:**

* **Data Format:** CSV
* **Data Source:** Attached CSV file: pump_data.csv
* **Data Description:**
* **Timestamp:** YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS
* **Sensor Readings:**
* `vibration` (mm/s)
* `temperature` (°C)
* `pressure` (bar)
* `flow_rate` (L/min)

**Prediction Output:**

* **RUL:** Provide the estimated RUL in days.
* **Probability of Failure:** Provide the probability of failure within the next 7 days.
* **Failure Mode (if possible):** Predict the most likely failure mode.
* **Explanation (Optional but recommended):** Provide a brief explanation of the prediction.
