An Industrial Safety System is a countermeasure crucial in any hazardous plants. They are used to protect human life, the industrial plant, and the environment in case of the process going beyond the allowed control margins.
As the name suggests, these systems are not intended for controlling the process itself but rather protection. Process control is performed by means of process control systems (PCS) and is interlocked by the safety systems so that immediate actions are taken should the process control systems fail.
Safety Manager is part of the Experion Process Knowledge System (PKS), providing a Safety Integrity Level (SIL) 1-3 certified safety platform. Its cyber secure architecture is certified by the Embedded Device Security Assurance program as defined by the ISA Security Compliance Institute. Universal Safety I/O further enables flexibility, allowing process manufacturers to integrate multiple safety devices while simplifying engineering and reducing installation and maintenance costs.
