In these days of MSG3 maintenance schedules and mandatory reliability monitoring programmes there are 3 classifications:
1. Hard Life
2. Condition Monitored
3. On Condition
The majority of components, including Fuel Booster Pumps, are generally "On Condition" items and remain in place until they fail. There are very few hard life items in modern aircraft.
