Plant loop turn on/off chiller in same plant loop

In a chiller water plant using a combination of absorption chillers/electric power generator, we are simulation in open studio the total energy produced and consumed by the plant per year, including the time the generator is out for maintenance (and the absorption chiller), the loop has two electric chiller EIR and one absorption, i created the loop and the simulation run well, but how can i simulate the chiller out of service in the plant? I have tried with availability manager but this tun off all the plant, How can i assign and availability manager only to one equipment?

The plant C:\fakepath\Plant.PNG

Thanks
