The protection of people, processes, and the surrounding environment remain a significant part of any automation strategy. There are hazards and risks with any industrial application and process safety is a major concern for anyone who works in the process industries. We provide a broad portfolio of solutions to meet your unique process safety requirements through our team of process and industry experts.
Does Your SIS Meet Current Standards?
Is there an easier way to keep your facility safe? Yes. We have products, the experience, and know-how to take your safety initiatives to the next level. We have scalable solutions that are fail-safe, fault-tolerant, and support triple modular redundancy (TMR). Learn more about how this approach could work for your facility.
Safety Instrumented Systems Are Critical to Safe Operations
There are fundamental steps to determine if your existing systems are acceptable. The first step would be to identify all safety instrumented functions and determine what level of performance they need to meet. This includes establishing the required safety integrity level (SIL) of each safety instrumented function (SIF).

How to Upgrade Your Safety System
Modernization Strategy for Upgrading Safety Systems
Recent events in the process industries have emphasized the importance of maintaining the highest standards of safety. These events have spotlighted the potential worker, environmental, and business ramifications of a significant safety event. Companies and the operators who manage their production facilities demand the highest level of safety. This high level of safety helps protect personnel, the environment, and assets while maintaining maximum uptime and minimal operational disruption.
Drivers for a Safety System Upgrade
The Business Case for Upgrading Your Safety System
The decision to upgrade a safety system in a process plant is never one that is taken lightly. The drivers behind this decision are often complex and influenced by many factors and stakeholders. Asset owners commonly find themselves faced with a primary and secondary set of reasons for a safety system upgrade.
