Abstract

PLN Nusantara Power UP Tenayan is a coal-fired power plant supplying electricity to the Riau region with a capacity of 2 x 110 MW. Operating 24/7, the plant faces frequent failures, particularly in the instrumentation components of the coal feeder. This research employs the Failure Mode and Effect Analysis (FMEA) method to identify and analyze these failures. The Risk Priority Number (RPN), calculated by multiplying severity, occurrence, and detection ratings, helps determine the failure level. Research stages include a preliminary study, problem identification, observations and interviews, data collection and processing, FMEA analysis, and conclusion drawing. The results indicate that the instrumentation components are generally reliable, with RPN values below the critical threshold of 200. The speed sensor, with the highest RPN value of 160, is still categorized as reliable. Failures in these components can lead to operational failures, suboptimal coal feeder performance, and monitoring difficulties. The study recommends preventive maintenance every six months to enhance reliability and minimize disruptions.
