MTBF = Total Operating Time ÷ Number of Failures
MTTR = Total Repair Time ÷ Number of Failures
MTBF = 1000 ÷ 10 = 100 h   |   MTTR = 50 ÷ 10 = 5 h

MTBF & MTTR Formula

Basic maintenance reliability formulas

MTBF = Operating Time / Failures

MTTR = Repair Time / Failures

Availability = MTBF / (MTBF + MTTR) × 100
MTBF indicates the average operating time between failures, while MTTR indicates the average time required to restore equipment after a failure.

How to Calculate

Follow these simple steps.

1
Enter Operating Time Enter the total time equipment was running.
2
Enter Repair Time Enter total downtime spent on repairs.
3
Enter Failures Enter the total number of failure events.
4
Calculate Review MTBF, MTTR and equipment availability.
